The project presented in the article is proof of the usefulness of student organizations and its effectiveness in the popularization of advanced technologies as well as future solutions in industry. A student-developed planetary rover, using a Kalman filter and other algorithms responsible for dynamic terrain mapping and pathfinding, is capable of non-collision movement in the most challenging environments. Moreover, the rover uses a 6DOF arm developed by students to undertake manual actions, such as soil sampling or maintenance tasks with ease. The invention is provided with a drill to be capable of extracting a sample from a depth of 30 cm, which is expected to greatly enhance the research of the geological history of the surveyed region. The robot has been tested numerous times at planetary rover competitions with success, proving the potential of such platforms as one of starting points in space exploration and opportunities in industrial use, especially in hard-to-reach mining areas. The featured project represents an inspiration for future young engineers and scientists by opening perspectives for implementing similar technologies for more efficient and safer operations in industry
