The Djedi Project was an exploration of the interior of the Great Pyramid of Giza.[1] The project team was made up of international and Egyptian experts. The name derived from Djedi, the ancient Egyptian magician consulted by Pharaoh Khufu when planning his famous pyramid. As Dr. Zahi Hawass announced on his blog: "The purpose of this project is to send a robotic tunnel explorer into the two "air shafts" that lead from the Queen's Chamber of the Great Pyramid of Khufu to gather evidence to determine the purpose of the shafts."
The team was managed by University of Leeds and supported by Dassault Systemes in France.
A detailed report of the project can be found on the web.[2]
