Students of the Faculty of Electronics of Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute became one of the winners of the Jammer Hackathon, in which Ukrainian developers created electronic solutions to combat enemy drones.
🥉 The KPI team Phantom Defense took 3rd place out of 70+ participants, united in 25+ teams!
Development of students
Algorithm for detecting and suppressing control and video channels of UAVs.
Team composition
Students of the Faculty of Electronics (FEL):
- Denys Vasyutyak (DS-41mp);
- Dmytro Alifonov (DS-41mn);
- Nikita Krupnik (DS-41mn);
- Oleksii Kryvets (DP-31mn).
For three days, the hackathon participants were looking for solutions in the following areas:
📌 preventing and/or interfering with the operation of commercial drones such as Dji Mavic 3 or Autel 4T, which are most often used by the enemy, by cyber-attacking, influencing control protocols and UAV components;
📌 automated detection of FPV and anonymized commercial drones, direction finding, and automatic tracking.
Our team received a $7,000 award for further development and will be able to compete for an additional $50,000 prize fund.
We congratulate and are proud of our students and wish them further success in the realization of their ideas and projects!
