Fourteen schoolchildren from cities in the Caucasian Mineral Waters region, who completed training under the guidance of V.A. Grechko and Z.Kh. Abregova, specialists from the Design and Technology Bureau "Creative Programming, Robotics, and Artificial Intelligence," are presenting their projects. The young roboticists are demonstrating a cleaning robot, a parking robot, a delivery robot, and a search robot with heuristics. Experts evaluate the projects' functionality, the quality of the program code, the circuit assembly, and the presentation of their designs.

For many participants, the program was their first serious step into the world of engineering, programming, and robotics.
