We are a research team from Sebelas Maret University which is engaged in the development and manufacture of UAVs and USVs. We aims to contribute to the development of UAVs and USVs in Indonesia and find solutions to problems that can be solved with the help of UAVs and USVs. Bengawan UV Roboboat is a group that focused on research and development of autonomous surface vehicles
Bengawan UV was founded in 2014 by Mechanical Engineering students from Universitas Sebelas Maret. Initially focused on unmanned aircraft, the team expanded in 2017 to include unmanned ships. Their slogan, "Aksatriya Nalendra Madyantara," means "The Knights of the Sea and the Sky." The unmanned ship division consists of Autonomous Surface Vehicles, Fuel Engine Remote-Controlled Ships, and Electric Remote-Controlled Ships.
On the first competition that Bengawan UV participated in, we’ve managed to get third place on Electric Remote Control category on Indonesian Power Boats Competition (HMTB-tournament series 2018)
(Kontes Kapal Cepat Tak Berawak Nasional 2018) was the first national government based competition that Bengawan UV participated in. On this event Bengawan UV has the privilege to earn second position on ERC Category.
(Kontes Kapal Cepat Tak Berawak Nasional 2021). After the IRC, we still join KKCTBN competition for the fourth time. For the result, we’ve got back to back championship and best design at ERC categories. Besides that, we also got 5th place winner at ASV categories.
(Kontes Kapal Cepat Tak Berawak Nasional 2022). After the IRC, we still join KKCTBN competition for the fifth time. For the result, we got the 3rd place winner at FERC category, the Fun Battle at FERC category, and the 4th place winner at ERC category.
(Kontes Kapal Cepat Tak Berawak Nasional 2023). After the IRC, we still join KKCTBN competition for the 6th time. For the result, we’ve got winner First Place at LBFERC category.
After got several rewards at National Competition, we are not easily satisfied with the results obtained. At the beginning of the year, we try to level up by joining the International Roboboat Competition 2021, with less than 6 months of preparation, we got unexpected results where we got 2nd place in the sensors optimization skills video and 2nd place in the hull design skills video.
In this second year of participating in the Roboboat Competition, our team improved and leveled up. Surprisingly, we got new results, which are 2nd place in design documentation, sponsorship: Blue Robotics award, and the best team for testing and innovation.
In this third year of participating in the Roboboat Competition, our team improved and leveled up. Surprisingly, we got new results, which are BlueRobotics Award: 2 x T200 Thrusters + ESC and Special Award: Perseverance.
In this 4th year of participating in the Roboboat Competition, we keep improving and leveling up. We got great results, which are 6th Place of Autonomy Challenge Awards, and 3rd Place Design Documentation.
