When Ukrainian tech challenges Elon Musk

An innovation that is anything but anecdotal when, worldwide, more than 15 million people live in places dotted with these mines.

“I’ve always been interested in science, so I decided to research ways to use robotics for mine clearance,” said the budding inventor. A determination shared by many other Ukrainian entrepreneurs. How to change the face of the conflict? Response elements.
