of hi-tech decongestion will help cities breathe easy. a second when. those traffic jams are legendary in fact the capital was awarded the june title of the world's most congested city last year by g.p.s. make it tom tom with the average muscovite driver spending over five full days a year sticking tailbacks which altogether can stretch up to two thousand kilometers. high tech gadgets like the head up display from a sadie's show collision and lane departure warnings making for a safer driver reducing accidents and helping keep the city moving while certainly an improvement over traditional dashboards they do still require the driver to focus on the windscreen leaving the rest of the road a blur once again skolkovo lived up to its reputation. this contraption in the foyer may look like an arcade machine but under the bonnet it has more uses than just entertaining visitors the way you are

a navigation system put. into the driving seat by projecting the route onto the road ahead so the driver's eyes are kept firmly focused on the road this simulation of the device also display speed fuel and ref counter information rendering car does boards a thing of the past as well as helping drivers get about town or navigate treacherous cliffs holding roads the finished product will display up to date traffic information and can be installed in any existing vehicle. where it is now on the drawing board and in development but the simulator is far from redundant. we decided to build a simulator to refine the user interface in order to test the way the display works before installing it in a real car. to demonstrate the focus to infinity effect so that people quickly understand that this new type of navigation system is indeed more convenient because it doesn't destroy. from driving. the way rates seem have

a vicious tons to network way read navigators with each other and the rest of the city to coordinate traffic and relieve loads of congestion so the burning question is when can we see them in our cars. people with the optical design for both the holographic part and for the diffusion part is almost ready and right now we're working on building our pre-industrial prototype just as soon as possible. a lot of the scientific legwork to create way race is being carried out to the to physical institute named after the man who adorns the entrance technology updates regular the institution longstanding expertise in laser needs mentioning one of the main challenges is producing a three d. image on a flat when screen that appears up to twenty meters in front of the car under a nickel live it here has worked wonders helping the way reteam overcome some of the practical and scientific stumbling blocks once you get past all the snow

committees you'll find that creating an image research death out of thin air isn't sorcery the secret behind the technology lies in this film the film basically acts as a three d. display on the windscreen the three d. stereoscopic image is what's varies the focal point from the wind screen to infinity i think to be overlaying the image along the road ahead so what's the trick like existing solutions that simply project information onto the windscreen the film contains a holographic lens and this is how it's made a highly coherence laser beam is split into two one be shown through a glass lens onto the whole graphic film under second reference beam is shown directly onto the film and is the interference between these two beams this recorded and creates the holographic lens. we already have some experience of working with virtual displays. these jenner. really look like flat

surfaces which are usually not very big but since the laser power that we have now limits us to a certain size currently this is around ten by twelve centimeters but in the future they will be two or three times bigger. which means we will need a more powerful laser. with. the holographic film is completely transparent and has a diffraction efficiency of over ninety percent making it ideal for a lens however it's only react to the laser wavelength that was used to record the image so to create a color display in the end product three lasers representing the primary colors will be used to record three holographic layers holograms have none of the drawbacks of current three d. display technology that requires special viewing glasses which can be uncomfortable and dark in the images on screen. it's very good that they've become so heavily involved in this because infusing asm means a lot here it's

a complex task because we are not just talking about making a lens it should be safe in crashes and you should be able to integrate the lens into the windshield that you need to place the projector somewhere the optical projection system is also quite sophisticated the software is very important as well why because without senses monitoring the driver and the situation outside this system would be no more than just another clock. the way ray has already received numerous accolades as such prestigious events as the innovation convention and interest from the likes of intel and famous car makers so we hope it hits the road soon before we see what the future of technology holds let's take a look back and see what's already happened in two thousand and fourteen. bytes. the russian quantum sensor school covers largest resident officially open. another

large complex at the innovation center at the end of last year the complex consists of six labs equipped to carry out research in different areas of quantum physics including optics simulators information processing and photonics. employs seventy scientists including two nobel laureates it also contains the world's only four hundred gigawatts pulse laser system. quite often. completed bush's longest ever space walk on december the twenty seventh last year at eight hours seven minutes its marks the longest amount of time the russian made all an m k suit open space the cosmonauts mission was to install high end medium resolution cameras on the exterior of the international space station to send images by to earth in near real time the meteorites that exploded over here it was the largest object to hit our planet in a century it shattered thousands of windows people clean off their feet. at the

ural federal university was voted one of nature magazine's top ten scientists of two thousand and thirteen he played a crucial role in calculating the trajectory of the meteorites the calculations meet by the me try to lead to a five hundred seventy kilogram boulder being recovered from a lake west of the city. will have to create a simulation will need to search long term experiments going will need virtual models because what was happening inside this ball of fire is a mystery. is the end of january and winter is well and truly here but just when you think you've had enough of the snow . might just change your mind. the ice exhibition is currently being held for the first time in moscow the event's fuses art and science to produce some pretty cool exhibits including the phone which was one of the highlights of the show. it uses all great things to generate musical

compositions when dry ice is added to water senses in the container register the changes in temperature and pressure as the dry ice turns to gas all this information is then processed and sent to the six channel sound system as well as entertaining guests the exhibition has more serious undertones hoping to raise awareness of the role that ice has in forming and recording our planet's climate. it was a good piece the scientists were so kind as to give us a very rare sample for our art. here we can see both lake and atmospheric. lake oz is clearer and more transparent while atmospheric causes spackled. on the basis of these spackles. all edges can determine what the climate was like thousands of years again this is. the open source vostok project let's visit to see holograms of ice taken from the dark depths of lake vostok.

that's all for the first half see you after the break. do you think she's values are maybe also reflected the massive surveillance operation that is going on when we're talking about defending against terrorism which ultimately i think is it's where it is a catch twenty two right because you don't want to take a program away that is saving people and creating a safer environment but at the same time you know i truly believe that we all have a right to enter that freedom i believe we shouldn't be surveilled except. according to a new oxfam report the rich are getting richer at an alarming pace little cost is

all over the world are under pressure and the poor well are only getting poorer with growing income inequality how can we expect democratic institutions to survive not to speak of maintaining social tranquility is it time to start broadly sharing prosperity. how do you operate dylan but i'm going to the most critical sports such. as ruth rose i'm not an olympic hockey player is on the line. by fire. we cannot accept to live under those we love them forever we cannot allow the. israelis for your. delusion we cannot accept through this stage.

welcome back the hype used to be believed will soon be printing off anything vases to spawn right in the comforts of our very own printed homes and what has been widely hailed as the next industrial revolution so we went out to find out more. tech grads comic styria may be deceiving but the innovative green city may just be leading the country into the next industrial revolution three d. printing promises to shift mass production from the factory floor and bring it into the home allowing owners to realize their wildest dreams in plastic zylon a grudge is the birthplace of russia's first commercial three d. printer the picasso builder already in its third incarnation the device is ease of use high printing speed and persuasion there with the rest. it all started when i

was still in my fourth year at school i wanted to work on a project of my own initially we tried robotics but then we realized that it would be difficult to commercialize our products as this would require serious investment we didn't have anything to create our prototypes with and that's when we first realized we have such an instrument as a three d. printer. although three d. printing technology has been around since the eighty's it's only really kicked off commercially when the majority of pizza is related to fused deposition modeling or f d m lapsed in. us in two thousand and seven this led to the markets being flooded with affordable open source princes such as this one by all to make. each picasso printer is put together by hand on sites with a majority of pas being produced right here in the city and in the true spirit of three d. printing the company even prints sell parts to make more three d.

printers given all the media hype surrounding the technology and it's almost unlimited uses the demand for them is steadily growing and the guys here instead in a grad are working flat out just to keep up. the latest generation device can produce very high quality products with a high quality surface and a high level of consistency when making more than one of the same object the deviation of the printed plastic model from the original three d. model is within a few hundredths of a millimeter. global demand for three d. printers and accessories is expected to grow significantly the lion's share of demand will be in north america western europe and asia however the growth in demand in eastern europe is likely to be higher than the average twenty four point one percent reaching one hundred three million dollars in five years all in all the world three d.

printing markets is expected to be worth five billion dollars by two thousand and seventeen. the company's own software lets users modify the size of their objects and view progress in real time the printer doesn't even need to be connected to a computer users can simply insert an s.d. card and hits print while the vast selection of free online files means that early adopters will have plenty to keep them busy whether the three d. printing revolution is just around the corner or here already one thing's for sure in russia it started here in. the possibilities of three. d. printing don't end with three d. trinkets we have the ability to print anywhere at any time. and print anything. was up in the last. the winter is always a reminder of how we should look after our health with a indy's everywhere feeling the strain particularly at this time of year. no doubt that organ transplants save lives but waiting lists for compatible donors can never

be shorter not so what if there were a way of producing compatible organs on demand. bio printing has traditionally meant printing biocompatible materials as a base for cells to grow there it may sound far fetched scientists have already money to produce a human ear and all the tissues take a scan of the organ to create a three d. blueprint cells are then taken from the patient which are then placed in a culture to multiply the cells then painstakingly placed on the three d. printer scuffled which is then incubator to produce a functioning organ. three d. bio printing solutions opened this labs in september two thousand and thirteen with the sole purpose of advancing tissue engineering supported by the moscow department of health care and in vitro labs the skolkovo resident should soon have all the equipment necessary to manufacture organs it's also working on

a revolutionary bio printing technique the method still requires the three d. printed cell molds commonly used to store and grow various cell types but crucially it no longer requires the scaffold around which they are placed. in two thousand and fourteen russia will have its first three d. bio printer this will faster pass any previous models as it will be produced using nano technology its speed and accuracy will far exceed that of any of the current models and perhaps most importantly it won't even be that expensive. traditional tissue engineering methods involve removing all the cells from a dead human or animal organ leaving only the protein scaffold which is then we populated with stem cells and incubator lawn of has taken this a step further and just come up with a method for printing an organ directly without the use of any organic or artificial scaffolds it involves extracting stem cells from the patient's fat

tissue which are then mixed with a high georgiou and placed in three d. printed. these are then incubated to produce which are the building blocks of printing from here you can pretty much print any organ you like when you. we do not use animals or any synthetic polymers for support structures or scaffold we only use hydrogen. the hydra gel is ninety nine percent water it contains this which are each made up of tens of thousands of cells together making the bio ink used to create the printer lays down a layer of bio paper on which the cell clusters of printed cells of the same type a naturally attracted to each other and combined to produce tissue the process continues in this way layer by layer the bio paper eventually dissolves and the layers fuse and self organize to produce a fully functioning organ the simplest tissues are those that don't have blood

vessels in them such as cartilage skin bones and so on the organs that we really need are kidneys livers hearts and lungs but that my only be possible in the distant future although printed organs might not be here quite yet doctors can already do some pretty impressive stuff stem cell therapy involves using new adult stem cells to regenerate damaged or diseased tissue it may still be in its infancy but doctors believe that the treatment has the potential to treat anything from spinal injuries and cancer baldness a missing. heart disease is why. the biggest killers there is with heart transplants running into tens of thousands in russia every year alone. thankfully penza based made in just paralytic carbon heartfelt. in terms of performance from the real thing provide the long life offered by artificial ones giving many people a second chance. bone implants and now commonplace but that doesn't make them any

less advanced. is a promising new material that's flexible when cold back into its original shape the body temperature. just like soft tissue organs in implants also need to be accepted by the body so they're given a special coating. the surface should have the exact same composition as. the body doesn't reject the implant once it's inserted so our task is to minimize the difference between the bone tissue and the implant ultrathin. to this perfectly . calcium and phosphate together make hydroxy appetite which is a natural components of bone the coating is applied by a process called physical vapor deposition where calcium and phosphate vaporized into a plasma then condensed into a thin film on to the implant in this paid to vacuum chamber the whole procedure

takes several hours but the final ensure the long term success of the implant the atoms gradually dissolve stimulating bone growth around the implant which results in a solid natural bond. as well as modifying. we have started researching ways to make things coronary stents. function of the vascular system could be lethal. searching for new ways to prolong the life of the pay. patients is of utmost importance. that can be expanded to keep weak or narrow arteries open unfortunately delicate arteries can be damaged during the implant operation expansion to avoid complications after the operation coated in titanium nitride oxide shorts the super smooth coating helps avoid

arterial damage and promotes healing significantly reducing the risk of blood clots forming although archie collapsing again later the coating also remains intact as the has expanded within the artery just like bone implants are applied using that p.v.d. process. there is so called early for. this stance currently on the market guarantee successful treatment for older patients with early from bosis but there's increased risks of late from occurring even after several years are preliminary findings allow us to predict that we can avoid both early and late for this. and. given all the medical breakthroughs we've already made and with three d. printed ones coming in the not too distant future hopefully we'll be able to start

swearing less about our health and spend more time enjoying the finer things in life. the festive season is already behind us but. ready to stop celebrating so welcome. but with a modern twist. brains over brom. be great if instead of just sit around. and read the newspaper time will become meaningless as you tumble down the rabbit hole into a strange beguiling world of playing cards. and white rabbits. as you wait for the start. bell rings. has been magically done but the weirdest thing of all is that this is no fictitious wonder the robo c.v. does all the heavy lifting and carrying so you don't have to the completely automated forklift can freely move around warehouses transporting pallets and afternoon c. from a to b. giving you more time to kick back and relax or concentrate on more important things

. formed by a group of robotics enthusiasts just over two years ago the company designs autopilot systems based around computer vision and the c b c bean although it's not the first company specializing in me to transport. the stalled an existing hardware. of them without the couple of older automation technologies require a special infrastructure like a wall reflectors and magnets imbedded in the floor. but rather expensive and takes a long time to install our technology doesn't require anything like that. computer vision and all the words we simply replace the forklift driver with our automatic pilot system to work with the old. c.b. sees the surroundings with a laser ranging system at the front and four cameras all this information is

processed by the onboard computer which in turn controls the accelerator brake wheels and forks. the robots first constructs of burchill three d. model of the warehouse this thing compares what it's currently seeing with the model to determine its exact location intelligent navigation system is capable of identifying and avoiding obstacles and people they all fully independent and communicate with each other while asleep which means they can establish who has right of way on the warehouse. once the destination has been reached on the card. to the next job but the secrets behind this. the hardware. development is a mathematical tool that allows the system to understand exactly where it is. technological. but it's really just to produce a working technology it's important that technology. cost so that it's

economically feasible. the relatively low initial costs of the solution combined with the money and time saved in the long run means that pays for itself in a short amount of time with companies always looking to cut costs in today's financial climate the makers of robo c.v. have even received orders from a well known high tech south korean company some sun currently has six forklifts of his warehouse in the kaluga region which have been fitted with a robo c.b. system and the company's plans to increase this number in the near future with by custom old ready in the bag. with international brands spurred on by such early successes the guys at c.v. have a vicious plans for the future. in the near future or automatic navigation systems will be created for large vehicles and heavy machinery as well as other means of

transport that could be used within a specifically confined area say. on campuses trucks on factory premises. safety in warehouses was already pretty strict even before driving the selves. streets away if anything. enters the area immediately in front of it all information channels have backups on the whole system is monitored. so we'll do all our work for. technology. here. and enjoy the ride. i know. tanya. well tell me how you are my little grandson.

i know. i don't like. being cut off. except as an ecovillage that the spiritual side is destructive. i try to convince her try to preach that it was a sect but it's dangerous that she had to leave it was a story she had lost her mind. you know you see we'll come back i know it was and i will wait even if it means i must wait until my dying day. as a new physician i swear to abide by the hippocratic oath. to the best of my ability

and judgment. i will prescribe for the good of my patients. i will not give deadly doses to anybody. or advise others to do so. i will never do harm to the. doctors of the dogs on october. last. quarter on june sixteenth one thousand forty one we had a graduation party at school and the war broke out. last. the shops were always full of goods.

but in september leningrad was blocked. one day mom went to saw that all the shelves were empty. in november they bombed the die of steel warehouses it was the main storage place for all the food in the city people eating the earth because it had small traces of sugar in it i tried to eat it as well but i couldn't. the third night it was incredibly heavy bombing. it was a direct hit on that very shelter and everyone was buried under me. well one of them would to. whom.

breaking news this hour authorities are negotiating with rioters in ukraine who are trying to storm the convention center where some two hundred police officers are based that's following the opposition's rejection of president proposals aimed at quelling in the ongoing anti-government riots. this is two police officers kidnapped by writers in ukraine's capital have been released both were allegedly tortured as fears are mounting of radical protestors derailing the concessions of the authorities. and in other news up to twenty nine people are killed in the street clashes with security forces across egypt meanwhile a powerful explosion is reported outside a police building in the city of suez on the florida anniversary of the two thousand and eleven revolution.
