We believe learning new skills can change lives.

Studica is a proud Global Partner of the WorldSkills Autonomous Mobile Robotics Competition. With over 40 years of experience serving academia, Studica designs, manufactures, and distributes robotics technology products used by WorldSkills member countries to teach robotics and Unmanned Aerial Systems and compete at the local, regional, national, and international levels. Through this competition and program, students learn the engineering skills in designing, prototyping, building, and programming autonomous mobile robots (AMR), automated guided robots (AGR), and autonomous vehicsles, Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) and more specifically Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs).

For AMR's the authorized WorldSkills Autonomous Mobile Robotics Collection is required to prepare for and compete in the WorldSkills Autonomous Mobile Robotics competition. For UAS's, the authorized product is the WS500 Quadcopter Kit.

Member countries have access to training material such as PDFs and videos and the support of Studica Robotics. This program promotes peer learning whereby new member countries will improve their robotics technology skills through engagement in training and the competition against other countries.

Autonomous Mobile Robotics and robotic engineering are an impactful way to introduce students to developing technology. The WorldSkills Mobile Robotics Competition is designed to strengthen the following skills:

• Mechanical and electronic development
• Sensor and drive technology
• Programming
• Mathematics
• Reading and comprehension
• Problem-solving
• Teamwork 

Do you enjoy the following?

• Designing
• Fixing things
• Making things that move
• Using computers
• Using tools
• Working as a team

Then Mobile Robotics is right for you

Unmanned Aerial Systems (UASs) are emerging into prominence in multifaceted environments and applications, including military, societal, agricultural and environmental purposes, disaster recovery, infrastructure assessment, and wildlife monitoring. Their industrial applications are growing rapidly.  

Within design and development frameworks and applications led by engineers, the UAS Technician builds, installs, tests, and maintains UAS equipment. For this they may use a combination of mechanical, electronic, and computer engineering knowledge and skills.

In the UAS competition, individuals will be tasked to assemble, repair, and program a UAV along with tasks.  They will be given the WS500 Quadcopter Kit to assemble, program and fly. They will also have to do fault finding on an unknown kit, and various other tasks which will test their knowledge of UAV's and UAS in general.
