The St. Petersburg State University team won silver in the final of the CASE-IN championship

In the final of the XIV International Engineering CASE-IN Championship, the St. Petersburg State University team took the second place in the field of Digital Automation, presenting a project dedicated to the digital transformation of career logistics and the introduction of an intelligent dispatching system for unmanned vehicles. 

The solution is based on the concept of autonomous management of mining dump trucks using artificial intelligence technologies. A significant advantage of the project was not only the engineering and economic study, but also its own digital implementation: the team developed a project website and a career simulator, which clearly showed the logic of vehicle movement, routing and the effect of the introduction of an autonomous transport system. Due to modeling, visualization and convincing digital demonstration, the solution was highly appreciated by the jury.

Team Captain Valery Cherevko was responsible for project coordination, solution concept development, and software implementation of the IT simulation of quarry transport.

Mikhail Berezhnykh developed a financial and economic model of the project, justified the effectiveness and sustainability of the solution, and integrated key calculations into the digital platform.

Dmitry Yanshin was responsible for the development and hosting of the project's website, and was also involved in the technical implementation of the AI-AHS architecture.

Yaroslava Menshchikova was responsible for the visual packaging of the project: the design of the presentation, graphs, diagrams and the design part of the digital solution.

The project was prepared under the scientific supervision of Alexandrina Yurievna Skorokhod, whose methodological and scientific support played an important role in developing a competitive solution.

The team's result proved that St. Petersburg State University students are able to create strong interdisciplinary projects at the intersection of economics, analytics, digital technologies and applied development, adequately representing the university at major engineering competitions.
