trip. sun is the capital of the republic of tatarstan the city's historic site spawning back centuries of very modern metropolis and this innovation friendly environment makes it the ideal place to start so. on our first evening in the city we were met by a pair of young intrapreneur as keen to give us a demonstration of their road. as well as providing all the features of a traditional dash cam dop also uses computer vision technology to identify road signs and display them on screen it's also remembers the speed limits of the road you on unpaired lightly reminds you gets a bit heavy on the accelerator the following day we went to i.t.v. parked right in the hearts of cars on this business district builds in two thousand and nine with the sole purpose of boosting bush's i.c. industry the parks business incubator is a hive of activity it provides all the infrastructure and support necessary to help putting business men and women in the idea it's

a fully fledged company so it was the perfect venue for the bush and starts approach shows stopping because the event organized in parts by skolkovo will pass through twenty seven cities by april this year giving and social of around three thousand stocks hopes the chance to pitch their ideas to about five hundred investors and we arrived just in time to see the guys from bro dog say to the stage . obstacles already pretty crowded with not endorsements and reality software offering functions ranging from turn by turn navigation voice and text charts say overlays and geo targeted advertising the only problem is none of them awful all of these features are wants and this is where it's going to dominate them all not only with the up combine all these functions but future updates will introduce a on obligation audio advertising and instantly all data knobs for the first time. currently our competitors. they are updating their maps manually therefore delays

are inevitable they can take from a couple of months to half a year we expect our maps to be updated every day or two at the initial stage while our user base is relatively small but once we have the same number of users as our competitors will start updating the maps within one or two hours of the change offering the drivers latest information the road developers are conveniently based its high tea party in their office upstairs they monies to write the complex recognition algorithms capable of running on smartphones in just three and a half months but it's not just a labor of love the op will be available for free in around a month push the developers plan to commercialize the data they collect as well as work with insurance companies to lower drivers premiums with such potential it's no surprise they were voted one of the three witnesses at the end of the day but downstairs the event was still in full swing with startups taken it in turns to try and impress the jury it was pretty tense so we took a breather and cultivar the v.i.p.

with a very personal interest in the event. and i'm also an angel investor by myself and i have told everybody to be more credible with the story that i invested last year to seven or startups in russia and all of those are from the regions so do i think do i believe on the regions then i guess so if i put my own dollar from real speaker has already received no small amount of investment it's allows writers bloggers on the don't write bone idle to enter text into a computer by simply dictating it's the application currently supports thirteen languages ranging from english and spanish to check in chinese so i wondered how it would fare mind north and why we are the south of n.c. . full stop i mean that's the real seat and. all saw each bright star every say. so hopefully it will make it easier for me to write scripts for technology updates full stop. real speaker uses

a microphone webcam and internet connection it's much is the audio input from the microphone with the speakers lip movements from the webcam all this information is sent over the internet to the server is then processed in real time and sent back to the user as text. the project is relatively well known in russia the total funds we've raised around four hundred thousand u.s. dollars we have investments both from the foundations and private investors the company is a resident of the. skolkovo innovation center the company is also registered in the united states and we've already applied for u.s. patent and right now are looking for a strategic investor to help us turn a promising technology into a commercially successful product. unique jewel channel system for the accuracy of speech recognition as well as helping abbie to write is the technology may be used to control domestic appliances in the home of the future.

because he's already one of the country's innovation leaders but if he's going to stay there he's going to need a constant supply of young talent so the next stop of. many universities to meet some of the city's future innovators. in something like. national research technological university can trace its roots back to eighty nine since then it's risen to become one of the. universities in the country with over twenty six thousand students studying here it's also the largest technical university in russia one of the strengths of biochemistry. inspired by a speech i made from carrots extracts must his students. has developed a unique starch based formula for making biodegradable carrier bags in containers the end product stronger than only sacrifices five percent of the us to see. under

materials and. if you want to try to dust during the manufacturing process as well as solving the scourge of plastic bags worldwide the technology might also pave the way for edible wrappers and containers the formula can also be adjusted to prolong will shorten the decomposition time from a matter of seconds to a couple of months. down the corridor we came across another eco friendly technology. phosphates nitrate and other unsavory substances are commonly found in detergents and fertilizers they destroy the natural balance of across ecosystems also make their way into water so finding a way of removing them effectively and cheaply is of utmost importance in the industrial technology department testing a new product to remove phosphates and other pollutants from waste water the products. produced by an austrian company based on russian technology like other products on the market because impurities to precipitate the bottom for removal however unlike the rest works in record time and can be used in conjunction with

the microorganisms known as. the technology has huge potential for such a small bottle. this certain rate this is the active sludge separates from nutritious waste water. which naturally speeds up the entire wastewater treatment process increasing the production rate of the waste water treatment facility. which is one of the advantages of this project. bio cut it is based on nano flock puts customized for the russian markets it's improved sedimentation rate of biosolids reduces the energy required during bio purification by twenty percent but it still has to pass through many other stages before being returned to the environment. of first flows through a metal grate through me of any debris is then filtered to remove sun solidified the chemical agent added to the water in the first storage tank is then treated with microorganisms creating active sludge which also needs to be removed by

a cat can be added directly to the active sludge reducing the number of tree. the well known professor and member of the academy of natural sciences professor gruber conducted the research it was he who invented nano magnetizing. in two thousand and seven professor sue during or designed a technology for producing it on an industrial scale. and then in two thousand and nine two thousand and ten mr krueger who's the head of our company in austria came up with a way to work nano magnetite into polymer elements. through magnetic nano particles in bio are attracted to the surface of the phosphates in the water causing them to stick together and sink in a process known as flocculation the unique ratio of ingredients and now technology means that bio cut works two to three times faster than anything else on the market

. of course we intend to set up a production facility in russia this will be much more efficient because currently we have to take the magnetite outside russia incorporated into poly was abroad and then bring it back here which is naturally quite costly. as the world's population grows so does the money for freshwater and flocculation plays an important part in meeting the man and the next time you have a glass of water it might be best not to think about where it came from. which is everything when building craft and composite materials often beautiful string to weight ratio but using them requires a completely new manufacturing process and the similarities with baking uncle me. check with tight restrictions on emissions and more people flying than ever before aircraft manufacturers are being forced to lose some weight never want to get left behind bushes and missed twenty one could be the fourth plane in the world with almost entirely carbon fiber or black wings when it takes to the edge in two

thousand and fifteen. couple compazine in cassandra was only open. six months ago i mean as you may have guessed from the name it's money fighters compass its components for the aviation industry it's already produces compas it's been passed to the sukhoi superjet and is getting ready to launch production of parts for the m s twenty one. passenger plane complex piece of kit main parts include leading edge flaps brakes spoilers. and trailing edge flaps originally made from a mini m the number of components made from compass its vary from model to model but he's always on the if we're talking about the m s twenty one all these parts will be made from composites materials but in addition the wing skins. will also be made to create a black wing. well if we're talking about the situation today the proportion of compas at materials is something in the order of twelve percent for

all planes. for planes like this super jet but for the m s twenty one which will have a cold as it weighing the ratio will be a lot higher of course. each composite wing plane components starts off life on a roll of president impregnated cloth pre-press like many greedy as the prepaid must be stored in a cool dry place to prevent it from going off when the time comes each layer of the components is cooked told by the automated cultist razor sharp knife a bit like cutting shapes also. some parts contain up to thirty layers of pre-paid so that each stamped with a unique id to make sure they don't get mixed up. the protective film is removed to reveal the black carbon fiber below once every two or three layers have been put down there put in a vacuum bank to remove any stray pockets of air and as with any kitchen hygiene is

king or. any small bit of fluff which may seem insignificant and odd. daily lives becomes very significant in our line of work because if for example small strand of hair accidentally fell into one of the parts. change its characteristics . this sealed process then ready to go into the oven to kill the giants autoclave heat the components to one hundred eighty degrees c. the temperature rises a couple of degrees a minute to ensure that no cracks appear in the final product just like a conventional oven the autoclave is fun assisted to distribute the heat evenly however unlike the domestic appliance vacuum pipes at such to each component to squeeze out any excess resin which is so by the felts lay on top of the pressure inside the autoclave features three to eight kilograms per cubic centimeter forcing out any remaining edge between the layers the whole process is carefully controlled

and monitored and up to eight to sixteen hours the wing pos i don't to perfection. unfortunately we couldn't wait that's long so here's one we made earlier. i'm going to got to go but i'm with you and he wouldn't today we use imported materials to produce parts of liberty but at some time in the future we'll have to switch to russian materials. is doing a very important job in my opinion as far as i can tell they're doing it very well judging by the results of our work together with. the wrong materials and samples of the final product tested its head office in moscow these samples were prepared according to the exact same recipe unfitness as the ones used in the. wings the first impact tested under much higher spirits under normal operating conditions the sample is then scans with ultrasound to assess the extent to which the internal

structure. the carbon fiber is then test its destruction to see the maximum load. it cracks flights after all the proof of the pudding is in the. we all hope that one day we're going to use russian materials. because i think future depends on this. we like working with the materials because we get to work not just with some test equipment but we work with real equipment used to produce real parts of the finished product the. custom frames which have been tailored to each part leaving no space for human error and this is well. comes to an end. it's already producing parts for a jeep and has its eyes set on the wider international markets. thanks to its

black wings and this twenty one promises to become the most aerodynamic plane in the world when it's the skies. that's just the end of the first half. after the break. i think that in all of these areas where you have the rise of what is called the new right there were shadows faction with left wing keep. my friend in berlin does not seem to be aware of how widespread is this should germany is and having spent the last forty years and in an academic lunatic asylum i assure you that it is total in many many quarters of american life. that i was in academia for a while i found it in a straight jacket as well a dime's so i'm going to jump in london yeah i mean i think spending time in the

lunatic asylums is kind of the fact of his you know thinking a little bit to the point is that in the u.k. the. values have changed cultural values have changed need to become much more tolerant much more open much more liberal and space even in the united states. rights. to the. lives. of the young girls. for the future harder. between two and three hundred million guns the united states so you can act like they're not here and keep kids away from them . the causes are you know i mean this teaches them a lot of for

a responsibility to think through the eyes of children if we can't do it for our children for our future. welcome by tossed on special. economic zone is located right in the hearts of western russia it was only set up eighty years ago but it's already become the biggest and most successful in the country is wide range of incentives an ideal location when that many of the world's industrial heavyweights of concerts own and sets up shop. local point stretching into the distance as far as the eye

can see the scale of a law book is hard to grasp its container terminal hundreds around forty thousand containers a year the whole cycle is a massive twenty square kilometers and there are plans to double this by two thousand and sixteen thirty seven companies are states that claims with a total of three billion dollars on the signs and nine already up and running the ultimate build industry is one of the lobbies q directions and we made a house call on one of the residents and said said emma spent designs and produces exhaust systems for russian and c.i.s. tamani five trips the company only became a resident of the special economic zone fairly recently investing one hundred sixty three million dollars in this facility. one of the company's main products is this sizable exhaust system fifty years old on petrol kamaz lorry engines and the company has come a long way from its multi-speed jennings almost twenty years ago. it stopped off

in ninety five when two engineers developed an improved exhaust for the zil fyfield once it was officially founded three years later becoming the official supplier for the copper to so it's opened his first touch in two thousand and truth in two thousand and five he became the main strive for a sense of a dedicated to. duchesses people come out in two thousand and ten and the company became the president of a lobby in two thousand and twelve. we designed this system together with the engine manufacturer the engine and the exhaust gasses to warn units if this unit works well you will be able to meet your zero four and zero five standards. the factory currently occupies an area five thousand meters square all the machinery and headset and this has facility has been custom designed and made to meet a specific requirements once the consulate to convert has been installed the external casing is welded includes to make it at site the company makes extensive use of robots to ensure consistently high quality it's also means they can produce

a car exhaust in this little is four minutes. noise is a key factor that needs to be taken into consideration when meeting bureau for fire standards on the exhaust systems at chutes and set set and this has head office in moscow. computer simulations show the path of the airflow inside the exhaust and the frequencies of the sound for joost engine is then used as information such as just the size and the shape of the device accordingly and one of the main challenges is to optimize the speed and pressure of the day getting the counselor to. the main trick in designing the sound of a car exhaust is to find chewing the output so that the high frequencies are muffled as much as possible within the output spectrum that will give you a relatively simple and efficient set up. and said said and this can produce around three hundred thousand exhausts and one hundred forty thousand catalytic converters

a yeah there are grand plans for expanding the company's science into law because three fold and opening a high tech r. and d. sensor puts in the meantime one lucky drive will have this exhaust system for the technology obeyed seal of approval not only is located just forty kilometers. down the road from my lava the city is based around commerce which is best known for its record number of wins in the dakar rally with a choke manufacturer producing well over fifty thousand h.g.v. easy good it's easy to overlook some of the smaller five trees which are also specialists in their own rights. frames overbroad. based in the calmest ponds on impulse is testament to navigation. station as an ultimate safe powerhouse named after the explores of old there's no way the company's biking all terrain vehicle tonto. on the road because one hundred forty six faces pellets to twenty months to a respectable ninety kilometers an hour that's what it likes in speed on the road

it's more that makes old fall off road. biking jumbo wheels provide performance on the kawi trucks which we don't churning up the terrain below. the big oil has been over ten days in the making during which time the developers money to plan for everything possible the bench while it sit. down with although we live in a northern country we have no idea that there are thirty seven different types of snow and now we do there are four or five types of snow that are impossible for any vehicle to drive across people including snowmobiles and even reindeer get stuck that is why we used ultra low pressure tires on our vehicle to enable it to traverse this kind of snow. we can also increase the vehicles ground clearance from thirty to fifty five centimeters by raising this is spencer and you can roll back a bit and then move forward pushing away through the snow and onto your destination

you go. to. the pressure of vikings tires can also be lowered and braced from within the county to lower the pressure at the lodge of the footprints the most critical has the vikings extremely low sense of gravity also makes it difficult to roll over on the. in the steepest of slopes. i like getting thrown around in the but there's no way i would so i thought i knew of all the fun yes most b.s. can i have a go of course. in the central driving position driving the bike he was like any other vehicle when i felt confident enough to open a little bit and see what she could do as he glided effortlessly across the snow it was easy to get through on a frozen loop it was what it was all of us who grew up off the might be we're looking into making the vehicle transportable by helicopter with an external slink

away so that it can be inserted or evacuated by air so instead of driving the vehicle some five thousand kilometers or so to its operational location you can just bring it over with a helicopter and get to work with what you know it's full of functions that been assembled by him so far that currently being used in st petersburg the fun north and by the emergency services the company plans to make twenty five vehicles this year thanks the manufacturing process and shift to mass production by two thousand and fifteen making between one hundred and one hundred fifty a.t.v. so yeah i'm just like it's ancestors the viking is no lime jello but it's also a fully i'm phoebe a severe cold yeah musician you know what rescue services asked us to develop a vehicle could pass through water that's full of debris because that you have to deal with if you have to move around in an area devastated by a flood. so we contacted some people in the shipbuilding industry and had

a four bladed propeller with a one hundred twenty percent over the top of them designed especially for us it is essentially a screw. ups on impulse is still testing and increasing the bike is designed it's also working on a six wheel version and cost. models for the various emergency services the founders of the company cut their teeth working for commas and even including national champion the vikings custom compass if a fellow spends a full thousand r.p.m. commutes a maximum speed of fifteen kilometers an hour also the funking centrally mounted engine and points construction make it to see with the as any longship it's also the only off road on previous vehicle in the world this completely bowed legal notice but for a small five tree from an opposition. to an end we were keen to get something to remember our trip by so just before heading back to moscow we took some time out to stop some of the sights. of change. we had

to buy some high tea talking to songs to get a hunk from some of the president's. fun from me specializes in making video gifts for friends family and business especially occasion whether it's be a wedding day old psychometric. uses simply sending them photos choose from one of the many templates on the phone from you guys to the rest with a little help from adobe after effects they hope to also made the service in the near future but it's already least some pretty weird and wonderful clips. naturally i chose the real money template those are the guys to tackle spin on it and i think you'll agree it's turned out quite well but i'll leave you to watch it in peace until next time enjoy the ride.

wealthy british style it's. good to. find out what's really happening to the global economy. global financial headlines to name two kinds of reports. i don't see how european countries who are member of the european union can solve the problem without leaving the european union so it's all countries like great britain or france you named francis

specially with increasing poverty in my opinion they have difficult they have a difficult time to solve these problems but i think at least they should rearrange the principle rules of free movement of persons and improve the system. and russia trees being gay is not criminalised there absolutely no punishment for being gay in russia the only thing that. is spreading information favorability launch additional sexual behavior are you going to legislate against couples to sway. you know trade partner or is it only a certain type. legally able to. propaganda it's so clear.

transit. best way to the heart of moscow. the two thousand and fourteen winter olympic games marked by phenomenal athletic performances conclude with an enchanting spectacle the night sky of such a sparkling with the world's eyes glued to the breathtaking closing ceremony. with the olympic flame extinguished we look back at the intense competition this is the games as well as the top notch support from the spectators. and in other news ukraine moves closer towards splitting apart the opposition dominated parliament appoints its own acting ministers and president while the southeast refuses to bend it to its will with the head of state nowhere to be found.
