making many walks of life both easier and safer and this is especially true if this next robotic dream team. brains overbroad. the world is a dangerous place so robots are frequently used to scout out areas and perform tasks to hazardous for humans in addition to the classic humanoid design is often sent to nature for inspiration this is resulted in myriad weird and wonderful creations but even if we have to go in harm's way a robots will put us back together again if things go wrong however building a machine capable of such precision in highly demanding environments still requires a human touch. set up in st petersburg twenty three years ago the accounts employs around a thousand people it's forged a name for itself as a top supplier of high tech inspection and maintenance robots for the nuclear and oil and gas industries the company of ships around twenty thousand pieces of equipment to twenty three countries around the world but the applications of his
4:31 am
products on just limited to earth dia conses even manufactured components for space ship docking mechanisms and electro mechanical fuel valves for launch vehicles we called so with the company's deputy director to find out more. mission is to ensure complete control over manufacturing processes and high tech product development because we have over three hundred engineers and specialists who from project scope document drafting process development and implementation of create the technology to make the product which is then manufactured using the equipment located on our site here so there's still a sample tested and delivered to a client. one of the secrets behind the company's cosmic success is it takes production facilities which occupy around five thousand square meters and continue to grow many of the economy products play a vital part in the safe operation of energy production facilities so failure is simply not an option so three. sure the quality of his equipment remains top notch
4:32 am
the company is hundred takes the best tooling machines from supply is around the world while all these high end machinery may cost a pretty penny the full cycle production means that the company can design and build the products at the drop of a hot this ability is not only earned the company orders from the likes of general electric but also resulted in a rather motley crew. since two thousand and five for the nuclear boiling gas and space industries d a contest designed and assembled an entire family of robots and it continues to grow the first generation includes a pipe inspection robot which uses ultrasound to check for defects corrosion and other irregularities in high pressure gas pipelines. this snake like welding robots is designed for carrying out free pass inside nuclear reactors the machine is radiation proof can slither through a gap the size of a much box and slinks along the walls magnetically the company's remote inspection

a standard chalk that can push against the inside of the pipe with a force of one hundred eighty kilograms while its electromagnetic acoustic transducer doesn't even require direct contact with the pipe he did takes microscopic defects and corrosion that could lead to massive problems down the line it has a number of cameras for visual inspection and is in service in countries around the world compresses stations are frequently located in far flung places inaccessible by standard transport means so the company has converted a six wheel drive camas that controversy even the most rugged terrain with ease and transmits all this data back to basically satellite uplink. all of the technology being made today requires super precise components with impressive capabilities but in limited quantities maximum a couple of hundred a year. plans to switch to mass production which will mean different technologies and approaches which is why we're building another factory. attention
4:36 am
to detail has security took place among the elite robotics companies of the world he continues to strive three find his designs and solve a more complicated tasks with his new production facilities just around the corner i'm sure we'll be see much more of his high tech help soon so next time you turn on the t.v. or put the kettle on spare a thought for the robotics team to help keep the energy which is safe under. the most is the third largest in the world it's the hearts of the city transporting around nine million people every day and its web of tamils needless to say all this traffic takes its toll. on something online. every morning i join the throngs of people commuting to work in the hostel and bustle of the moscow metro. on the red line was one of the first stations built. opened in one thousand nine hundred thirty five as a showpiece for the soviet government the beauty of the miniature is known the
4:37 am
world over almost eighty years later there are still plans for its expansion so the need to ensure the safety of both old lines and new has never been greater. metro inspection technology has come a long way since the days of hundred push trolleys culminating in this scenario the moscow mitchell's latest weapon in the never ending battle against where. the train can check the track and tunnels at the same speed as normal passenger trains meaning that inspections can be carried out during the day hundred peasant nights but so deal with the long peak times including passing to traffic the cynic you need to. just speed. the functions of three. trains. no one thinks required heart rate.
4:38 am
diagnostic equipment capable of checking to see six of the. touch to the rear ultrasound to check for signs of. measurement system at the front. between the rails and their respective heights. comprises for lead us. to measure the clearance. visual inspection. and the hold. that. the masses of information generated by the. process in real time by powerful computers. is closely monitored by the team for any glitches in the absence of signal deep below the any problem areas. running along the rails the hypnotic video footage can also be rewound and scrutinized by specialists.
4:39 am
in addition to the existing two systems that we used that's the track monitoring system and system yet we also introduced some new ones. three d. systems high speed video monitoring of tracks and joints and we also have a third monitoring system the checks on the condition of the power rail checking out its temperature and the visual data systems like that have never been used before. one hundred fifty kilometers by twenty twenty i'm sure. one will have its work cut out. the company behind the scenario is starting with defective scopes twenty five years ago their equipment is now accounts for almost three quarters of russian railways diagnostic fleet they have more than two hundred fifty trains and over two thousand five hundred manual diagnostic tools in operation wills white. the company had only
4:40 am
three members of staff when it was launched in no employees over three hundred people including marketing production and engineering specialists while its team of experienced programmers writes all this software in-house the company's actively branching out into new markets including china germany and the c.i.s. so you certainly won't find any of the team resting on their laurels. but. of course that we will definitely try to apply this experience to other russian metro systems. and there is a demand for such trains across russia. as far as i know the moscow metro plans to build another scenario that we feel which we believe will be even better than this one. your web. this princess is the company's flagship mainline model is definitely no slowcoach as it's currently only one of
4:41 am
a few diagnostic chains in the world capable of checking every millimeter of chalk as a one hundred forty kilometers an hour this means you can fit in with existing timetables and eliminate destruction to services the latest effective scope has overcome traditional problems with the deflation of ultrasound in metal which until now has limited speeds the defect scope releases a thin film of water on the rails to improve the readings. before being done on a passenger car that equipped with a bolster. this is the first time that a non-contact centering system has ever been installed on the main. pretty we're also making use of a brand new detection system as well as various new software solutions they allow us to implement a lot of new monitoring technology which in turn enables higher monitoring speeds.
4:42 am
the high speed subsume was only introduced four years ago but construction has already started on a new four hundred kilometer an hour line whatever the future of rail transport i'm sure will pay actually rolling keeping plans on track and getting me to work. that's just the end of the first half so don't see you after the break. we are still far in debt a baby born today in the united states when it takes its first first breath. is fifty thousand dollars in debt. is that ringing home we have no money to give anyone how can you call us the richest country in the world when we're trillions and trillions of dollars in debt.
4:43 am
if you're thinking about an alcoholic drink associated with russet it's probably not going to be one that springs into your head but they've been making it here on the black sea coast for more than two thousand kids and there's an industry which really can compete with the best the rest of the world has to offer i've come to meet some of the people going the greats and to see if i can find out the secret to the perfect.
4:44 am
welcome back before we continue with the rest of the show let's see what else has been happening this month. bites russian internet week took place towards the end of last month charting around fifteen thousand visitors could be the most important event in the runic calendar it gives dot true giants a new comers alike the chance to discuss topics from advertising social media and digital marketing to big data cyber security and online regulation. i'm talking
4:45 am
about dots through giants most popular search engine gun takes continue to this global expansion by rolling out a popular maps service worldwide the press conference was fittingly held in a moscow planetarium. had to translate over seven million street town and city names from two hundred thirty seven countries and the maps will be updated every three months the company had to develop the technology to process the vast amounts of cost of data one hundred times faster than the old service our own line rendering system process is user requests to more the amish they need and does it very quickly in order to develop this technology we had to receive all the mathematical algorithms we had to start from scratch and this was a real breakthrough. so the largest of four reactors arrived at the oil refinery on the twenty eighth of october one thousand four hundred fifty two and james was transported two hundred three kilometers by a three hundred eighty four wheel parts form at
4:46 am
a new p two kilometers an hour the feat has made it into the russian guinness book of records as the heaviest cargo transported on public roads to l'oreal unesco for women in science awards ceremony was held on the twelfth of november it's supported by the russian academy of sciences and is designed. raised the profile of female scientists over five hundred applications are made for one of the ten fellowships each win awards away with a four hundred rouble grant because they're worth it. big business the backbone of the russian economy and their lifeline during the winter months fortunately the world still has plenty but the days of cheap so-called easy oil. check some of the world's oldest oil fields have been pumping for over a century. always finding inspired ways of boosting and maintaining output but there are limits eventually we're going to have to find new deposits. russia has twenty seven point seven billion tons of oil making up ten percent of
4:47 am
the world's supply the vast majority of which lies in western siberia around sixty percent of the total is considered difficult to extract so the future of the oil industry relies on finding new sources many of which al to see. the huge pressure to find oil rests on the shoulders of geologists slightly chops they examine the terrain features rocks and soil types to find the right conditions for oil chops puts unfortunately for these guys traditional servants it makes no longer come up to scratch. the region is rich in natural resources particularly oil and natural gas but when faced with depleting oil fields and strict export targets in the mid eighty's the region had to come up with new ways of squeezing the last drops of oil out of existing fields. the. university has an impressive archive of course samples taken from the region's wells. on the process. of the rock can be used to determine
4:48 am
the reservoir storage capacity and the ability of fluids to flow through the rock to these measurements are used to determine the recoverable reserves and the rate at which they can be extracted. the process itself involves working out the chemical makeup of the. talk to some police then heated uncompressed in the chamber to simulate the conditions under which it will be drilled and the results of these tests help determine the best drilling method when it comes to the crunch. the extreme testing conditions are not to crack even the hardest of rocks so there's no room for error as shilling for another sample is no small task. so trust the skolkovo innovation center name must go to how the. vision has a way of conducting an infinite number of experiments while leaving the core sample completely intact. physics involves creating a three dimensional virtual model of the rock and simulating how it would behave
4:49 am
under various physical processes. modern wells are very sensitive to methods of increasing extraction rates development so sometimes you need to conduct hundreds or even thousands of experiments before drilling with obviously a real sample would withstand it so that's where computer modeling comes in with. the precious core sample is placed in a computer tomography. the machine takes a series of x. ray slices of it which are then put together to create a full three d. virtual model which contains all the pore spaces and mineral natures sees that along with these chemical make determine its physical properties while the resulting image wouldn't look out of place in a modern art gallery the information it can provide is worth more than its would ever fetch it auction the ability to test even the most fragile of samples to destruction until the heart's content provides invaluable information on the
4:50 am
feasibility of launching production at new fields and boosting outputs to existing ones. is the correct interpretation. you have so i don't. that's translated into the indicators geologists are used to. they can choose the best. technology may be to take full advantage of it you have to find oil in the first place continental shelf some of the largest and least explored oil reserves in the world with huge potential under the gaze of oil companies hunting for oil its. own set of unique challenges. has developed a painted technology that takes. comprises a series of nodes that can create images of the ocean floor faster and more cost
4:51 am
effective than traditional methods the technology behind the company's success is a result of the work of the institute of earth physics where research into ocean surveying started in the ninety's. recently it was really only a bit of scientific fun. five years ago when i didn't think this project was worth developing marketing for the industry or what. technology emerged. saving microprocessors microcircuits. digital converters rapid wireless copying technology at speeds of up to fifteen second much quicker than wife. did over a few days then transfer it in a matter of minutes. to continue registration of the. black sea has drawn the attention of. the fully automated
4:52 am
pret checked. that power supply and electronics can also be controlled remotely once the ship reaches the required coordinates there cast over the side and plunge to the bottom of this. better thanks to the disposable. navigation system but it is their exact location and the nodes are capable of gathering accurate data up to seven kilometers below the floor the devices are deployed along a pre-determined pattern it's equal intervals to form a two d. grid the size of the lattice can be as large or small as necessary while the nose direct contact with the seabed rules out any interference from weather or shipping and towed behind the ship releases powerful acoustic shock waves that travel deep into the earth's crust and by the nodes. realistically companies can drill down to three four or even five kilometers that's the depth of most oil wells but in professional geologists i'm mostly interested in studying all the layers above the
4:53 am
upper mantle you months but our technology allows us to study the upper mantle as well and once. the mapping is complete the signal is given for the nose to dish their own kids and return to the surface the anchors are completely environmentally friendly and decompose into quote sand and water in just four weeks when the devices transfer all the information wirelessly in less time than it takes to ready them for the next mission. after that we do all of the data over to the geologists for interpretation. by using all kinds of interpretation software what they study the image and tributes in many different ways. and the data they get from that can be used to locate drill sites and reservoirs. meanwhile another skolkovo resident flow dynamics just so happens to have developed
4:54 am
a piece of software for simulating hydrocarbon fields. to uses geological and seismic survey information to create interactive models of existing and completely on top reservoirs the application lets him. dynamic reservoir simulations to find out how well behaved for example if water steam pressure chemicals are introduced as part of the extraction process this helps save both time and resources when finding the right drilling method and ensures the field is safe when operations eventually commenced. two thousand and thirteen is a very special year for us for the first time in our history overseas sales will exceed our sales in russia. our global partners include such well known companies as the u.s. based occidental petroleum pioneer natural resources the japanese jog meg and malaysian company in fact were seeking
4:55 am
a global presence. in the meantime russian oil majors such sleek oil boss netting gazprom already relying on the latest surveying and modeling technology to improve efficiency and safety as well as keep our petrol tanks full i'm also sure it'll come in handy with the technology challenges the shelf presents. to open innovations form as the name would suggest is the place to be if you have an innovation to showcase in life forms so naturally that's how to get in on the action. point the open innovations forum was held only for the second time at the start of november the aim is to promote global cooperation in advanced technologies and innovation as well as bring business education and government representatives together as well as the usual industry stalwarts we saw lots of new players looking to carve out their own niche there's always the proof is in the pudding. to continue to shift from novelty to utility with this educational tool
4:56 am
that promises to bring physics lessons to life. transports was also a key theme with compazine materials making for faster racing cars and leading the switch to green transportation. can make even the most people into a music god. humanoid robots still have a long way to go. one of the exhibits that really. even caught the eye of the russian government. don't be surprised if you see some of them in future. and we. enjoy the
4:57 am
ride. let me just tell you something right now president george w. bush never claimed their right to extradition really assassinate american citizens this president barack obama should be impeached for crimes against the citizens and against the constitution because he has killed women and children in drone strikes so i'd just like to say that i think that history is not going to judge the presidency of barack obama and george bush in the same light whatsoever i think obama is way worse than bush and i am not a big fan of george w. bush ok and you could probably be co-hosting this program i guess i don't need to say very much definitely give you reflect upon what we have heard from give ruby and from ostomy there is no compare and contrast between either president whatsoever besides having a spending problem this president currently has spans and pulling the debt and deficits out of control more than all presidents combined however george w.
4:58 am
bush did spend too much but his governing style foreign policy prowess taking a set of crisis and leadership style are night and day over what president obama's are. when the crisis leaves us traces everywhere. empty clothes shoes become the norm. children pay for the mistakes of the domes. by word union and tobacco fields or in the cafes. they are the ones who come back home the last. his games are just in their memories.
4:59 am
is one thing that i still can't understand it and i don't want to good mood but i have to. one question with doing this all for you that you had everything. respect him so that he gave them all up and decided to go your way but what for. there was a latent form he tried to restrain himself but look. anyway. if it really puts me off that i have such a father. it was one small but very great secret that i have to live with the.
