ABOUT US

D.I.A.N.A. Team stands for “Ducti Ingenio Accipimus Naturam Astrorum”, is a group of student initiative inside the Politecnico di Torino born in order to represent the university in the project A.M.A.L.I.A. Also agrees to become a permanent feature that can take up space robotics with constant and cyclic parts of staff students and with new future project.

The D.I.A.N.A. Team will be followed by Professor Gianfranco Chiocchia in the Academic Head role. In addition, Professor Giancarlo Genta will provide technical support.

 

The team also enjoys the collaboration of different departments of the Politecnico of Torino (DIASP, DIMEC, DELEN). Teachers and researchers provide both technical and educational support that allows the student to use the research work, carried out for the team, as a topic for the thesis or an internship.

The  DIANA team is  involved in several courses, including:

Aerospace, Mechanics, Mechatronics, Electronics, Telecommunications, Informatics.

WHAT WE DO

With AMALIA project joining, the DIANA Team undertakes to complete the implementation of the rover that will explore the Moon in the Google Lunar X-Prize. This rover will be based on modularity, redundancy and, where possible, use standard components and materials for the purpose of killing costs, reuse of components between the different phases of design and flexibility for rapid solution of unforeseen problems.

There are many topics covered in the draft, for some examples of student's work you can visit the Project progress section.

Google Sponsors Lunar X PRIZE to Create a Space Race for a New Generation

$30 Million Purse to be Awarded to Winners

SANTA MONICA, Calif., September 13, 2007 – The X PRIZE Foundation and Google Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOG) today announced the Google Lunar X PRIZE, a robotic race to the Moon to win a remarkable $30 million prize purse. Private companies from around the world will compete to land a privately funded robotic rover on the Moon that is capable of completing several mission objectives, including roaming the lunar surface for at least 500 meters and sending video, images and data back to the Earth.

The Google Lunar X PRIZE is an unprecedented international competition that will challenge and inspire engineers and entrepreneurs from around the world to develop low-cost methods of robotic space exploration. The X PRIZE Foundation, best known for the $10 million Ansari X PRIZE for private suborbital spaceflight, is an educational nonprofit prize organization whose goal is to bring about radical breakthroughs to solve some of the greatest challenges facing the world today.

“The Google Lunar X PRIZE calls on entrepreneurs, engineers and visionaries from around the world to return us to the lunar surface and explore this environment for the benefit of all humanity,” said Dr. Peter H. Diamandis, Chairman and CEO of the X PRIZE Foundation. “We are confident that teams from around the world will help develop new robotic and virtual presence technology, which will dramatically reduce the cost of space exploration.”
“Having Google fund the purse and title the competition punctuates our desire for breakthrough approaches and global participation,” continued Diamandis. “By working with the Google team, we look forward to bringing this historic private space race into every home and classroom. We hope to ignite the imagination of children around the world.”
