tomorrow and one of those is photonics whose roots were laid in russia but has since sprouted into an international player the firm has developed a new kind of laser scalpel for dental surgery you could find uses just about anywhere that doctors currently employ a blade. since. they didn't have a very good reason. on

the first a total of ten russian companies were singled out at the tech success. and organizers designed the competition to acknowledge the country's fastest developing and most innovative small and medium sized businesses as well as boost their profile on the world stage coming into the ceremony the list had already been thirty companies which represented the entire spectrum of industries and regions across russia to. create a company hardware maker enter school and a handful of medical firms on the lookout for the next device are made to keep us all on our feet another one of those in the. electronic archive. catalog but it's also one of the. co-producers these.

are all about documentation files for. you can also be used for some of the more cool. for example the push to museum in moscow is in the process of digitizing many of its most treasured works capturing the timeless beauty of the paintings and objects that grace its walls and hollows requires more than just a simple camera. two thousand. to improve the city there own the me to thousands. proved to the point.

as far as we know everyone switched to digital devices. there is a wide range of devices he. presents. unmatched anywhere in the world. digitization needs the pushkin museum has turned to. company specializing in super high resolution images they claim their system is the best way to get a top notch completely objective representation of priceless pieces of art. don't have to take the paintings down from the walls they do need to set up and calibrate the light just right doing so ensures the resulting image is an entirely accurate reproduction of the painting as it is in real life but today the resolution of even the best. exceeds twenty. for many museums purposes simply isn't

enough. to develop an entire set of technologies that allows their technicians to boost picture resolution without warping the image or losing any data through stitching software composition this requires a bit more ingenuity than you might think. instead of just snapping the whole painting at those takes individual pictures of each section. distorting the original demands what's called a shift. at the root is a camera with the usual c.c.d. sensor which is what converts to incoming photons into a digital image however the lens itself is made to rotate around the center information to the stationary c.c.d. sensor the more separate pictures the higher the resolution. of painting twelve sections two hundred forty megapixel picture such a clear image. damage. come to the conclusion that the different pieces of

og need to be filmed using a different color palettes typically this consists of two hundred fifty six color fields just for this movie insufficient for example when we work with complex pieces of art. in such cases we use extended. to fifteen hundred color feels. the particular piece we're shooting but to ensure that we give the best possible match. the resulting images are so precise in terms of detail and color that they can serve as the master print against which future potential fakes could be compared these kinds of super high rez unbelievably accurate reproductions are the first word when it comes to archiving masterpieces and even for the creation of high quality catalogs. or two dimensional scanning methods do the job for paintings and pictures like these they only give us one side of the story when we talk about three d. objects that means all kinds of additional information is hiding just out of sight in places like the fair a pint of monastery technology ensures that no detail is left behind the aging

interiors of this beautiful example of medieval russian art has been filmed and put on display for all to see and treasure. here at those still use the same shift when set up to take additional steps to ensure light is properly evenly cast on the segment that they're filming the images they get are indispensable for stores as they study and understand what exactly needs to be done to keep things like the dionysus fresco around for future generations to enjoy. and the technology employed here has benefits if you never make it out to the fair part of monastery yourself thanks to episodes pictures you can explore the walls of survive centuries and you can rest assured knowing that you're seeing the frescoes exactly as they are in real life the color palette is a difficult the lighting presents the image as it was intended. and crucially the proper perspective of the arcs and curves are kept intact as a result of the shift lens. therefore you could almost feel the glare of heavenly

inspiration jumping out through your screen. but there's another kind of scanning out there one that involves a near constant monitoring of the skies this is the moscow ground station of a company called scan x. which is recognized as one of the top thirty innovative companies tech success and we mentioned earlier it all started with rather simple computerized weather stations worked out by moscow state university researchers in one thousand nine hundred one the company developed these helix shaped weather data reception stations which proved useful for schools and state agencies alike but their big breakthrough came in the mid ninety's when they decide to revolutionize the field of data reception. was. designed and built a so-called personal data reception station but it was unlike others in that it was much smaller for example as there is so three satellite reception stations measure twelve damage one like this one which is about three meters and needed while one

hundred people to maintain it what they want to have achieved is that even a person who is not very good with computers. parade the system in the course of two days but it can also be installed on any street small size and weight. as satellites cas overhead images from space are being down to scale x. is receivers for this company the main idea is to be able to get the pics in real time and they have to set up a network big enough to spend the entire country. in russia itself to scan this equipment the sky is full for its own centers as for the kids for universities as well as state weather emergency resource monitoring agencies in total schelling's has played over two hundred fifty stations across the globe. really doesn't operate its own satellite. what it does do is allow for the images to reach those who need them faster and more conveniently than otherwise possible but they're more

than just space imaging middle they're technicians have to rework the pics to highlight just what they're looking for. their images which can be a statically stunning in their own right can serve a myriad of purposes many of the space defense are for government watchdogs but they can also be used by concerned citizens in groups to spot illegal deforestation or even track poachers over their most recognizable alternative applications is likely internet mapping services which they provide for russia's dominant online matchmakers yandex scale its presence on the market has been driving the industry forward with their strategy having been dictated by financial constraints early on their no helping push a slimmer more effective approach to space imaging was basically dimona polis the market for access to data. data went to one big national center then it was either so little distributed freely or depending on what the government policy was and by

the way in many countries it still works that way but we have given you this want let's say particularly well off that what you need to to get this data on their personal computers is a fundamental change whether good or bad people are going to use it to their benefit depends on us. and how we teach people to use it but it's for the best way we can't ignore the problems that the old faces and it was more. that mantra lies at the heart of scan x. is cause are you websites where anyone can monitor potential environmental problems they've created a similar site especially for government agencies to keep an eye on emergency situations for space there's nowhere for forest fires to hide and scan it's going to also help both the authorities and anyone who really captures things like oil spills which may not necessarily be obvious to the untrained eye on first glance. then of course some of their shots can be used to simply check up on how construction is progressing in preparation for the olympic games in sochi with two

years left until the opening ceremony you can witness the landscape being changed right before your eyes. over the years scan it has accumulated a sizeable archive of all the uploaded data all told they've got more than two hundred terabytes of space images on record all of which they hope will make the world a more transparent place. through your attention to open innovations forum given that it was spread out over some twenty thousand square meters of exhibition space and there were more than one thousand innovative works on display we probably could have done several shows just on the companies and technology present over the coming months don't be too surprised to see more about some of those innovators mentioned at the top. despite what event organizers would have liked not all big announcements were a meeting from moscow there were quite a few other important bits of news items in the world of tech recently as well more on them right after the break.

eat. oh and welcome back to technology update in recent weeks there's been

a veritable avalanche of big announcements in the world for that reason we've had it out to the newly opened spoke of a cube where many of the world's biggest players are currently setting up shop we've come out here to see just how all the latest moves look from a russian point of view this as i. guess you geeks the world over when ecstasy is out to look to find off a new challenge from a long time so microsoft enthusiastic fans. could be filmed on both sides of the battle lines. taking their fight. something a little. seven inch i pad mini microsoft finally threw his hat in the ring with the surface device basically the overall tablet market is getting more competitive with android devices helped by a new round of google. change the whole.

to account for one hundred percent of the tablet. just a bit more than fifty percent. nearly the rest of the market is a. very very small sliver of the remote controlled by windows based devices. however in russia. has a little over twenty five percent. the remaining three quarters of the. people . are more for entertainment for consuming content whereas the microsoft surface for creating content for work is a very convenient. that is.

hardware. operating systems as well. as probably the major. in terms of traditional. systems. computers. to translate into. the world becomes. they can't sit on the sidelines any longer. in the early to mid one nine hundred ninety s. the company has paired its surface tablet launch with a totally new version of windows. microsoft microsoft which. is on the mobile device market in recent. hard to reverse. it is hard to say if they'll be successful. we can sit back and watch.

to showcase their new operating system the company launch parties across the globe but the end of october. bodes well for the company though is the fact that in recent years microsoft has shown that it's able to branch out from its traditional strongholds and still find success early lead in terms of gesture recognition software it's connect and related gaming systems have proved a major hit for the young alike but here the real thing to see is the launch party unveiling of windows eight along with the much touted surface tablet the company has totally revamped its windows operating system from the ground up most surprisingly of all developers have ditched their iconic start button all together one thing probably everyone can agree upon is that a total retooled this client required major work. company employs specialists engineers and developers. for the first versions

over twenty years ago today. arching theme of this new system is to create a similar experience across all devices that means that the way you interact with your home p.c. will be the same as how you surf on your mobile gadgets. all the big news was coming from abroad. russian companies also announced a number of big projects. now . will be able to reconfigure. of course. they won't even need it

says they will have. this newly launched gateway to the web is another optimized quote base for hours or the developers have incorporated the press or. the incoming traffic to allow for faster surfing what used to be just a. combined address and search tool crucially this ought to be another warning sign to google which as you can see by comparing the two companies directly compete on many fronts. with this latest move appears to be trying to expand its so-called ecosystem. the go to case in russia is one of the country's two largest email servers and dominates the search engine game its own browser the app store to help all of their online products together seamlessly. the world is filled with rumors about potential partnerships with apple

and microsoft providing that these services in russia. products and back channel chats aside producers are confident that they have an ace up their sleeve when it comes to keeping one step ahead of the competition and its biggest and most important markets in a world where information is power. to be in the poll position. that's helped. make confident predictions page. next to this enables also to deliver the data to user a lot faster. there's a lot of competition in this. kind of like. there is a serious challenge on the russian market. which is also recently come out with a whole range of announcements starting with its own. go to an overhaul of its

interface and services. showing that it's not just a one horse race in terms of russian internet. or you gathered bloggers and tech heads alike for a big event of its own. conference the company seemed to differentiate itself from the likes of focusing much more on the lighter perhaps funder side of our online world and the main thing that i took away from the presentations and the event as a whole was the c.e.o. is focused on the intersection of entertainment and information. through appears to be quite comfortable with its focus on the entertainment minded internet users you . three percent of mail. from social network services. or clear demonstration. with. company providing entertainment. to be no real surprise that one of the biggest

pieces of news from. the world premiere of warface this free online blockbuster has been made available in russia before anywhere else especially for males are you by crytek has been billed as the globe's only free online first person shooter of its kind so far more than four million people have signed up to join the action every little element of the game mechanics has been tested to perfection the thing. with you can it make any mistakes if. exploited to their advantage. then the virtual world is built upon will collapse straight away the reason game to be good is it has to go through in detail checks. game mechanics are created by developers that would never even reach the gamers of. ever imagined in addition to those game mechanics everything from the interface to

physiological responses. for starters they check to see if things like maps and extra information easy to see on the screen. are all measured to make sure. games throughout various stages additionally the developers want to ensure that the little training sessions adequately prepare you for real time action but with are you having already launched warface the game designers of the world famous team have been tasked with a new blockbuster they expect gamers around the globe. develops its own games to be working on a so-called triple a great. game new generation ready for release for a few more years but. it's budget is as big as the blockbuster that

every company can afford games only five or six of the biggest market players are able to spend as much as twenty to thirty million dollars so our job is to eliminate all possible risks we have to make sure this is a thirty million dollars investment translates into a high quality product. considering that the worldwide market for games is worth more than fifty billion dollars and there are some forty million game. argues fig that could pay off. until the game comes out. time. time. so in the past month or so. with the new. technology we'll see you next time and enjoy the ride.
