As member of the Smart Factory Romania association, Ropardo, together with other partners, joined an amazing educational initiative organized as a contest for students on 15 April, in Sibiu. It was addressed to students regardless of the year of study, passionate about electronics, robotics, automation, marketing, regardless of the specialization they follow.

The challenge was to create an autonomous weather station, using 2 specific sensors, storage and ensure interpretation of the data it provides. The results were to be presented as a ready-to-sell prototype.

The experience of being part of the jury was a great opportunity for us to discover the students’ knowledge and skills in the field of electronics, hardware and software as well as their creativity and team spirit.

Winners were awarded with generous prizes to keep their motivation high in pursuing a professional career in the field of electronics, telecommunications, or information technology.

If you are curious to learn more about the event, we share with you the contest page and an article in the local online publication letting the community know about the initiative and the participants’ merits.
