The RoverOva team, which already has a wealth of experience from the European Rover Challenge, took part in the very first edition of the new Anatolian Rover Challenge in Istanbul, Turkey, in 2022.
After the qualifying round, the team was in the lead among the 14 qualified teams out of a total of 20 entered teams, but in Turkey during the competition itself, the team fared a little less well and eventually finished in an excellent 4th place. In addition, it won the award for best traversal of difficult terrain and best robotic arm. Teams from Turkey, Poland, Bangladesh, India and the UK took part in the competition.
