Ankara – Gamaforce UGM team had succeeded to show their best performance in Ankara, Turki by reaching the 3^rd Place in Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) International on fixed wing category. The competition was held on July 13-16 2017. This victory was the result of the hardwork which began in March to prepare everything for UAV competition. The preparation time was just as much as student money on end days of every month which means very little preparation time. Rifyal Garda Prambudi as a team leader of Gamaforce UGM expressed that his team also collided with unforeseen obstacles. For example, UAV rudder and some parts were broken when on the flight to Turki, so they got extra work to fix the problems.

The competition consisted of three stages, where the first stage was for the report, second stage was for detailed report and flight video, then the final stage. Gamaforce made it to 8th rank from 97 teams and qualified to the final. Gamaforce was the only indonesian team competing in the final.

Universitas pendidikan Indonesia has been recorded that GMRT UGM team out as overall champion of Indonesia National Robot Competition, known as Kompetisi Robot Indonesia (KRI), 2017 for the first time throughout participation. This general KRI champion tittle becomes the new beginning for GMRT team with spirit and passion which are more effervesce .

This year KRI runs more fierce than before. As Stated by Ahmad Kholid Kartiyoso as GMRT team leader that  rivalry in this competition is mostly smooth or there are no domination from either universities, underdog teams are brave to show off. Because of that, GMRT team got fierce rivalries from various universities such as ITS, PENS, Akprind, UMM, Unisula, UNY, etc.. This fierce competition makes this general KRI champion tittle to be very prestigious tittle for GMRT team.

After grabbing this tittle, GMRT team is not conceited as said by Ahmad Kholid Kartiyoso. GMRT team needs to do internal evaluation and prepares KRPAI berkaki team for achieving champion again in international competition at Trinity, United State. However, it cannot to be disowned that other divisions  may also go international.  Ahmad Kholid Kartiyoso also added his hope that the achievement of GMRT team can be a passion for other UGM teams to be able to scent this alma mater together.

GMRT participated in a national robot competition, named KRI 2017 Region 3. There were 4 types of competition that being contested in this competition, they were Art of Dancing (KRSTI), Fire fighter/ extinguisher (KRPAI), Soccer (KRSBI), and Abu Robocon (KRAI). Eventually due to extraordinary effort and spirit that the team gave on the competition, GMRT snatched some of great achievements, such as 1st place in KRSTI(Alfan Team), 3rd place in KRPAI(Alfatih team), the best strategy nomination for wheeled KRSBI (Fukuro Team), 3rd place in KRAI (HEROES Team), and the last one is the best design nomination for KRAI (HEROES Team).

Before participating in KRI 2017 Region 3, GMRT had to compete in KRI 2017 region 4 first.A team who competed in KRI 2017 region 4 were humanoid KRSBI. In this competition which was held at Brawijaya University Malang on Mei 3-6th 2017, humanoid KRSBI successfully got 3rd place.

With various achievements that GMRT got, GMRT had a right to participate at KRI 2017 on national level. KRI National 2017 was placed in Pendidikan Indonesia University, Bandung on July 6-9th 2017. Just as Ahmad Kholis stated, KRSTI, KRAI, KRPAI, and humanoid KRSBI had advanced to national competition, but there was 1 team which have not decided yet that is wheeled KRSBI. Wheeled KRSBI have not gained any achievements yet, but there is still an opportunity to get wild card. For facing KRI National 2017, GMRT put extra work in preparing accommodation and fixing the robots form mechanical, electornic and its program aspect.

Blessed expression was showed on Wira Irawan (Mechanical Engineering 2015), Adil Rasyidi (Mechanical Engineering 2015), and Haryo Bagus Budiawan (Mechanical Engineering 2015) due to their success of getting the first winner on Mechanical Modelling Competition, Mechanical City ITS. Mechanical Modelling Competition is a contest who has been conducted by Mechanical Engineering of ITS and it is a part of annual Mechanical City Competition. Mechanical Modelling Competition by theme “Innovative Ideas for Paddle Wheel Aerator to Optimize Fisheries Product” was conducted this year. Because Paddle Wheel Aerator that currently distributed is not a local product therefore required an innovation from college student to innovate Paddle Wheel Aerator which already existed. Paddle wheel aerator that was enclosed on this competition got innovation on aerator’s surface angle that has furrow to create a turbulence and manufactured by 3D printing’s method.

Initially, Wira’s team deliver letter of submission and product design, after passed an elimination round on February 5-12^th 2017, they are be qualified to get through to the next stage with 4 another team from different university. Continues with prototype’s construction, presentation, animation’s video related to the product design of paddle aerator that has been devised before. And presentation stage is conducted on April 14^th 2017. Utilizing 3D printing’s method for manufacturing process. Finally, announced that UGM’s team achieve the first winner of this Mechanical City ITS.

“There was still much to do, still required to conduct advanced research, like processing the oxygen that we hadn’t compared product which already existed with real condition in embankment.” Said Wira Irawan as the chief of MECC American B52 Bomber’s Team when asked about the follow up of this product.

Yogyakarta – once paddle two three island were exceeded, is a proverb the suitable to describe the success of Arief Faqihudin mechanical engineering 2013 and team in winning the ESPRIEX Business Model Contest 2017 in Malang, East Java. They managed to become the first place in the business model competition by relying on the previous idea he had in Hongkong Asia Social Innovation award 2016 that is an innovation in health called COASS which is a platform that brings together a coas or co-assistant with his patients. ESPRIEX Business Model Contest is a business model competition canvas organized by Harvard University, Stanford University, and Brigham Young University as one of the regional selection for the bigger competition that is International Business Model Competition 2017 which will be held at Sillicon Valey, USA.

Achievements that he achieved this time is not something easy, it is a struggle that he acknowledged himself because he and the team managed to crawl from 627 teams that competed to 181 teams as the remaining ASEAN are entitled to proceed to the next step and then after the process that he went through, they earned a semifinal ticket with twenty-four other teams until finally won the first champion which will represent ASEAN in International Business Model Competition 2017 (IBMC) in Sillicon Valey, USA after beating the other four teams who made it to the finals.

“To solve a problem does not have to see what your background. Not only mechanical student to solve problem about machine . Many other fields need engineering. Here I want to find a solution to the problem of dentistry education that has no solution at all, “said Arief Faqihudin whose team is supported by the University of Gadjah Mada, when asked why a brave engineer exists in business competitiohttps://dtmi.ft.ugm.ac.id/wp-admin/post-new.php#n.

Yogyakarta- Arief Faqihudin from Engineering 2013 ,together with his team, emerged as the 4th winner of the Asia Social Innovation Awards 2016. Asia Social Innovation Award 2016 was a competition held by Hong Kong Social Ventures which requires participants to innovate on social issues that occur in the country – countries in Asia. The background of the innovation that he created was one of the major social problems, namely dental health, research data conducted by the Minister of Health of the Republic of Indonesia revealed that 7 out of 10 Indonesian people have dental problems, not to mention the very expensive dental problems. That’s what prompted him to develop COASS which is a platform that provides assistance to bring together the koass with his patients.

Through this COASS idea, Arief Faqihudin won the Best Social Start-up Ideas for the Indonesian region and was entitled to represent Indonesia in the Grand Final against 10 other teams from Hong Kong, Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, India, South Korea, Thailand, Taiwan and the State other asia. Which eventually delivered him to become the 4th champion in Asia Social Innovation Awards 2016.

“If you are a mechanical engineering student, do not just focus on your field, look around you if there are problems you can solve? If anything, finish as much as you can “said Arief Faqihudin. That was the message from Arief Faqihudin to UGM mechanical engine students that outside the field of mechanical engineering is still a lot of things that can be developed. Finally, Arief Faqihudin also advised that to be an achieving student it is necessary to change the mindset, keep excited to excel, and do not be afraid to fail.
