AI Drone Soccer Challenge

Two days of drones, code and one real-world problem each

Day one · KURAIDay two · REVA Drone Soccer arena

Day one · KURAI

Pick a problem worth solving.

Search and rescue. Wildfires. Ocean conservation. Farming. Each inventor chose one, designed an AI drone for it, then built and published a website making the case — what the problem is, how the drone works, which real components it uses, and why it helps.

Day two · REVA Drone Soccer arena

Then they flew them.

Controllers in hand, on a FIDA-standard pitch. The matches were close — and the obstacle course turned out to be genuinely hard: only some of them got a clean run through the rings. Flying it is a different skill from designing it, and that was the point.

4 drones. 4 published websites.

Every site below was designed, written and published by the child credited on it — and every one of them is still live.

Mission · Rescue and Search

Alex, an AI Rescue Drone

Designed & published by Anas

Anas wanted a drone that finds people when every minute counts — so Alex flies over floods and collapsed buildings and radios back exactly where to look.

Mission · Wildfires & Disaster Relief

Wildfire Stopper

Designed & published by Sebastien

Sebastien went after wildfires — a drone that spots the smoke before anyone else can, then puts the fire out without sending a single firefighter into it.

Mission · Ocean & Wildlife Conservation

BlueWave Guardian

Designed & published by Shachin

Shachin sent his drone out over the sea — hovering silently above whales and reefs, watching for the boats that should not be there.

Mission · Agriculture

Farm Drone

Designed & published by Zhi Lee

Zhi Lee noticed that walking a farm row by row is far too slow — so his drone scans the whole field in minutes and treats only the plants that are actually sick.

Day two venue

Day two was flown at REVA Drone Soccer, their arena at Eco Galleria in Iskandar Puteri — a FIDA-standard pitch, their drones, their obstacle rings. Thank you for having our inventors.

Your child could build one of these.
