According to Huseynov, the concept of the project provides for the possibility of measuring the degree of oil pollution in a certain water area.
'To fulfill these tasks, we have developed our own model of an unmanned aerial vehicle, which is equipped with thermal and spectral cameras which will be able to transmit the coordinates of contaminated territories in real-time to the appropriate server,” he said.“In the future, with this project, we plan to establish cooperation with the State Oil Company of Azerbaijan (SOCAR), as well as other relevant organizations, and with the Ministry of Ecology and Natural Resources.”
Another representative of the Phoenix team - Ali Huseynzade noted that the team participates in the TEKNOFEST festival not only to compete but also to gain experience from participating in such a large-scale project.
'We want to develop a perfect and professional tool which will be able to perform the assigned tasks, and enter the domestic and foreign markets with this solution,' Huseynzade said.
The team expressed confidence that its achievements at the TEKNOFEST festival will allow it to take a place among the top three teams.
'We are aimed at taking first place in this competition and plan to direct the grant funds which we can receive to the development of our project. We see the need for our product and express confidence that the project will be successfully implemented,' added Huseynov.
The upcoming TEKNOFEST festival will be held in Azerbaijan on May 26-29, 2022.
