After weeks of hearing bombs and planes outside of their basement, Igor decided to revisit a past passion project: a prototype of a drone that could detect unexploded land mines and send their exact coordinates remotely to a user.I decided to pour all my energy into building a landmine-detecting device to help protect not just my fellow Ukrainians, but all victims of war,'' he told Metro.Mr Klymenko's invention, called the quadcopter mines detector, can help geo-locate explosive objects and provide coordinates of their location within two centimetres.''I soon realised that a flying drone would present a major advantage in not setting off mines, and could be adapted to work for both anti-personnel landmines, which detonate when a person steps on them, and anti-vehicle landmines, which can be triggered remotely, or by pressure on the road from cars or tanks.🇺🇦 17-year-old Ukrainian student prodigy @IgorKlymenko5, who has developed a drone that detects landmines, was announced as the winner of the $100,000 https://t.co/ye4pu1XnL2#GlobalStudentPrize 2022 earlier today!"
