During July month we went to KATECH together with the Allimi program. We visited the places, tried the hydrogen bus, and got a lot of knowledge. I think this institute is worth visiting if you have a chance and learn more about autonomous vehicles. The tour took around one hour and we visited three main parts, the main building, the one related to magnet force, and the part where they test the products.


I am not a huge fan of technology, but this is our future and it was nice to take a glimpse at it.
