doc that we do now absolute power corrupts absolutely and the geo political monopoly that we all live in really isn't good for the average person in or outside of america especially if they want to protest but that's just my opinion. gender trump it symbolizes gender madness in swedish idiom here because i found this. project foreigners with seventy thousand euro to investigate the triumphant from a gender perspective. hello
3:30 pm
and welcome to technology update coming up on today's show. a facelift. science flourishes in psalms. and we have some phone around the office. with a link to bill's creeping up in fossil fuel burning else people are increasingly looking to the sun for the answer to the world's energy problems while the solar revolution might still be a way off so let's take any leaps and bounds and what better way to show off what you can do the new race in the center of moscow. second the way. the solar adjusts it was held on the most cool ridge on a sunny day at the end of july in the competition nine seems from bush in unison one from one of the ways and the solar powered boats in the race to the finish as well as demonstrating the capabilities of today's solar tech events. comes on education and the business opportunities are. i'm with. monaco's team cinergy was

the winner of its class in the two thousand and fourteen solo one wants a column called with his sleep because in hydrofoils good luck the favorites win the moscow regatta as well. as the race was organized by graduates from the skolkovo moscow school of management under the supervision of youth guinea cousin of the slick soul of boats which was made in europe for bush's synergy sailing team was on site after his victory in monaco but the potential of solar vessels has implications everywhere such was the thinking behind the solar one championship which brought together teams from china usa and brazil it's monaco's prestigious yacht club here in moscow the founders of the solar got so wanted to follow in their wake. we tried different competition formats and in the end came to the conclusion that this is indeed something that engineering students need it's good for us education and research it's very important for them to take part in projects
3:32 pm
like this because it helps to expand their practical knowledge which. i'm sure this was the last thing on everyone's mind when the green flag flew in a surprising turn of events synergies foyle's wins quite as graceful around the coolness as they've proven to be along the straights and the boats lost precious seconds on each turn this gave it as this classic boat design all the opportunity it needed to close the gap to sailing neck in neck down the strait synergy was left dead in the water. while most people were enjoying the weather swimming role playing volleyball making the most of the sun in a different way we call talk with that scene from the state radio technical university while many of the older competitors boats were built purely for speed this team went for practicality as well this solar boats has room enough to six people. it's ideal for weekend fishing trips however at the flick of
3:33 pm
a switch the position of the reef can be adjusted turning the casual cruiser into a streamlined race. in this position the center of gravity is lowered and the wind resistance reduced optimizing the boat's turning performance and maximizing its celebration and take it from me the power of the sun is definitely enough to set the wind running through your head. the same as say let's try to put six meters one two point one meters wide propelled by five kilowatts outboard motor boats up to two lithium pulling a bunch of blocks together weighing one hundred sixty kilograms and they can move around displacement the solar panels on the generates will prevent really. really trust the batteries in about ten hours on a full charge the boat can burn for up to eight hours it's allegedly seven kilometers an hour or one point five hours it is my speed of twenty five kilometers . the boat was built in only two months in the business incubator at the technical
3:34 pm
university. before it got anywhere near the open water the team of six current and former students made sure it was seen with the in the improvised. join this stage of testing the team streamlined the vessels weight distribution powered up the propeller and of course check for leaks given the short time frame the team used the soviet focus for as a base. that. this boat has great performance art and sea going characteristics as well as a low planing speed. but this boat was originally developed for low powered petrol engines. that seem completely overhauled to the rest of the vessel. is made from an alum in frame strength into the extruded film palestine and covered in fiberglass fifty bus trees are mounted on sliders so the posts can be shifted on the go to suits whether load and race conditions close. attention was also paid to
3:35 pm
that chantix to maximize the juice squeezed out of every drop of sunlight and shoulder but she's a charge even with. build this boat for a competition and when the time came for us to take parts of this through the boat had been fully charged entirely by the sun. the upper solar panel outside while keeping it connected to the controllers. as we money toward the recharging process we saw that there is no need for any sort of external power source. the world class solar panels were supplied locally by one of the team sponsors that is than metal ceramics instrumentation plants. the production process starts by cleaning and visually inspecting the external glass pane the surface of the glass is slightly rough to chop as much light as possible reflected from the solar cells beneath. the inspection is complete the panes that carefully puts one side ready to be used in the final assembly later on. the millimeter thin wafers that make up the
3:36 pm
photovoltaic cells a solid to get into rows before being mounted on the backing sheets. they then pass along the back clips convey away any flaws or cracks in the semi metal cells would shine right through before being sold together in series. to prevent any old grind getting into the finished product i think ethylene vinyl acetate film is placed on top. then the whole panel is sealed by what's basically a giant slum an a.t.m. machine. number which. we were very happy to be part of this project years more than we supplied the solar panels for the boat so it could compete in the regatta. with the project had some unusual requirements due to both waitressed frictions we had to make said we just made a store existing technologies and use a lighter flexible polymer base to produce the solar modules more than. the finished panels that involved. production line and into testing the solar panels
3:37 pm
the checks by blasting them with an artificial sunlight machine and measuring the amount of electricity that comes out the other end of the firm's products can transform the sun's light into usable electricity with an efficiency of up to seventeen percent despite only launching solar panel production in two thousand and eight the companies where this can be found in forty two countries around the world . has many business promotion centers which are ready to support these projects teams we told to the skolkovo foundation and russian venture company and all these organizations are ready to work with our students who already have viable ideas that can be developed into marketable products. meanwhile back in moscow the solar it got said turned into a two horse race just some thoughts on the trail. the nimble try and run through just too fast for the multi-purpose transformer and in a nail biting finish went on to win the race. with more teams expected to

participate that promises to be even more drama in next year's event. the future of environmentally friendly private vehicles public transport has been going green for decades and mrs thomson metro are about to get a facelift. focal point. held the in a prom international industrial exhibition for the fifth time last month events during around six hundred companies from seventy countries and also hosts a number of world premieres. including the world's first sixteen meets a single section of low floor produced by trans mush holding. the city star was assembled in on the streets of moscow and is now ready to roll into the must production. star of the show how to be the prototype by. the futuristic which office on the rivaled conference promises to take the russian public transport into the space age. it doesn't just look good on
3:39 pm
the outside it's also got some pretty cool features inside too. so this demonstration model is exactly how the final concept design will look at the commercial model will have some slight modifications but it will not be changed by more than ten percent in features a unique quite complex door system and the headlights are also unique the lights inside opened with a dimmer mechanism which is fitted with a two point four kilowatt i quality sound system bogeys were made in russia and designed for russian tracks. they make up forty to sixty percent of the total cost of the tram so using these buildings as well as other russian made components makes this german about one and a half to two times cheaper than the equivalent for a model right is up with. the underground wasn't overlooked either with company urban transport solutions unveiling their metro carriage prototype as well it's both the largest passenger capacity easy access for disabled passing just climate control as well as a fight it takes and extinguishing system while the trains modular design makes it
3:40 pm
easier to repair and service the world's population is expected to meet eighty billion people by two thousand and twenty five and with all those extra mouths to feed scientists are looking for ways to maximise the yields of staple crops and the new tech in tom's might just hold the key. on something along. with sunny cool gardens can trace its roots all the way back to eight hundred eighty when construction work was started in the grounds of the city state university. it's a big general glass roof and walls has over seven thousand types of tree plants in texas from all corners of the globe and cover a bloomin six thousand five hundred square metres the gardens carry out importance we're protecting some of the world's rarest species and conserving toms to local flora. as well as providing a tranquil escape from the city the botanical gardens has all the elements necessary for science to flourish. for the past four years stuff for the university
3:41 pm
have been experimenting with a fertilizer called white collar. when added to soil or directly to fresh tree cuttings the nitrogen based plan through significantly boosts the growth rate in. the research is also stumbled across an unexpected benefits of using dry color. on glycol improves the growth process and basic right speed in the seeds even germinate more quickly in addition edges been found to disinfect seeds reducing the risk of fungal infection when applied to plant could things like cultural forms of protective biodegradable serum that kills but syria while letting water which means in the fertilizer is also reaching nitrogen which is an essential once food it's used to make amino acids the building blocks of protein and the chlorophyll that plants used to photosynthesize and if that weren't enough glycol will slowly release its nitrogen for a sustained growth. color is based on the versatile organic compound of the oxo
3:42 pm
made in tomsk by scientists from the city state university up until two thousand and nine only seven countries were capable of synthesising substance however that's all changed when utley named company glocks ltd sets up industrial production bringing new products to the domestic market. bilk sells unique ability to link polymers means is found up occasions in a diverse range of industries is used in oil recovery to make the solvable surgical stitches disinfectants paper coatings cosmetics and the list goes on the company's made by oxidizing ethylene glycol and cancer lies in reaction with heat and a lot for the silver however the guys at the blocks l.t. for develops a catalyst it's unlike anything used elsewhere. the average or the traditional elements used across the world are produced in the us germany and china. they just used large amounts of silver in a sort of sponge to produce. the catalyst element that we have developed as a. number of significant advantages firstly it contains only five percent silver
3:43 pm
the rest of it basically consists of silica said the silver particles are evenly distributed throughout the material to boost its efficiency more one kilogram of this material can produce more than pure silver alone. another advantage is its thermal stability because. having cracked the secrets of how to produce. the siberian company sets about manufacturing some of the many products derived from it including glycol or. the fertilizers made by mixing the clear liquid blocks out with white problem ice crystals. the mixture is then placed in a chemical reaction and catalyzed by an acid mixture that the companies keeping a tight lid on. as it turns out supply color is also pretty versatile the compound and its derivatives can be used in paint chip board resident pool disinfectants flame retardants and so on. with demand on the domestic market alone expected to
3:44 pm
reach sixty thousand tons a year the company definitely has its work cut out. in the next stage the crowd liquid is then filtered and they're basically dried producing the whites quite colorful powder. demand for the whole grown tech might be high but on the plus side one application of the first riser goes a very long. while the main advantage is that it doesn't easily dissolve in water which means that it stays in the soil for a long time one application may last for several seasons after two or three so use it once and forget about fertilizer for the next three years. with great color rules and long lasting effects farmers may soon be able to worry about things other than fertilizing. and maybe even take some time out for a stroll in the tomsk botanical gardens. just into the first half so stay tuned for more psychopath in the break.
3:45 pm
call the tried to. pull. your life or destroy the teaching every minute. the to. follow the law oh well. my. wife would have to. think that's. these cases just to eat lunch. sometimes for nothing which. is so simple still. it's not just keep still he can still be jobs if he sees the stage eight
3:46 pm
look he tells the teacher on the stand. when we come to talk about addiction to cigarettes we understand quite clearly that there is either smoking or not smoking we believe completely that abstinence. can quite understand why we don't have the same belief or drugs or alcohol to me the only way to productively dependency is to give up trucks altogether.
3:47 pm
sure would you like your old piece. back yards. by the fact that you've. heard a few times even the some of the laws which are just getting these lunatics up. and down three. the iraq army that is destroying your body are you god me. your back you could defend the guy just as i said our drive. today is to make it safe to make iraqis say again. let's take a quick look at the tech news before we continue with the rest of the show. bites.

the two thousand and fourteen international also reveal cell and open the doors on the twenty seventh of august to the crocus expo sense of joining the eleven day events organizers expect to see one million visitors flocking to catch the first glimpse of some of the many world premieres which included the unveiling of the lot of next gen chevrolet neve prototypes as well as some new cars from dozens of money including mitsubishi lunge over for. defense exhibition expert took place in the middle of august in the in the moscow region while some with the extensive business program most people would joins the exhibitions and demonstration of some of russia's latest defense take including an aerial display by team of. the two thousand and fourteen microsoft in watching cope at the beginning of the month and first prize in the games a russian team. has.
3:49 pm
the current base develop is not eternal in which players take on the electric spark bringing politics cities. included just a little more of the team fifty thousand dollars but. everyone knows that gets more powerful by the minute allowing you to do things that. a couple of years ago but even so there has to be limits i mean there's no way you'll be on the power and storage of a desktop in your pocket or is there. to teach. anyone who has a mark in his ever wants to run a windows program would have probably heard of parallels but what you might not know is that parallels is one of russia's top i.t. companies since it was founded in one thousand nine hundred ninety nine the company's become an industry leader in blurring the previously in line between the operating systems and windows. with over four million copies of parlous desktop
3:50 pm
from uk sold worldwide the i.t. giants recently went. into my. ideas and expertise with this technology and transferred them to the mobile sphere to provide remote access to windows and mac operating systems. parallels says combines the possibility of a tablet or smartphone with the power of a desktop so users of the up can access important documents. media y.b. from the other side of the world without suffering so bloated to the cloud first drug fragile hard drives abound with them. you can also provide remote support to technically challenged older relatives and be in the office while sitting in a jacuzzi. the developers of the company went to painstaking lengths to make computer applications look under feel as if they were
3:51 pm
originally written proposal device. among the main challenges with providing a stable connection when switching between wife by and slower three g. internet connections. adopting applications intended for a mouse to be used with a relatively imprecise screen as well as optimizing the resolution of a computer to be displayed on a small mobile device. set up launcher lets users start up the cations as if they were native mobile apps while the apps which displays all the programs currently running and allows users to switch between them with a simple swipe. mouse clicks of also being converted into typical search gestures while the magnifying glass helps users selects news fitly drop down menu simpletons but the company is particularly proud of its text selection functionality. regarding texts and text selection. trading systems provide no access to this
3:52 pm
feature or its management. is just not provided for in the fold function of an operating system we should just work you know a text field. so we had to get inside windows and mac operating systems market to be able to manage it properly. so much about the outputs parallels we were keen to give it a go back it's the artsy office. the guys at the company didn't tell us is that's parlous x. is also pretty useful for playing private school jokes on unsuspecting colleagues. the computers in our office can be accessed by pretty much any artsy employee i installed apollo's desktop clients on one of them the other day just to test out the program unfortunately our producer yulia didn't know this when she started the computer and the opportunity to play a practical joke on a was just too good to miss. we had four cameras around the office while you was
3:53 pm
away but i was in constant contact with our director said again if you told me once one zero and once a block all right surrogates just give me the go ahead and you use nipped out of the room for a second let's try connecting to a computer. sign in. carry even this to computers my home computer is on his you lose computer this is it. oh now we can see it looks like she's watching in order to sort of technology update so good for her right let's have some fun. by moving a mouse thing to just make starts off with. someone let's move the mouse i hear. it weird you don't understand maybe you should delete the address that she's typing. on. with. us from the wrong address.
3:54 pm
that. really has absolutely no idea we can see exactly what she's typing. bit of a typo it's move the mouse the old. punch him why have you got a mind of your own i didn't type that i didn't ask you tell you cannot what's going on. there's a message from a nazi most. i don't know if you need to write this message in repose for close or. near to you look what's happening here it's almost taking control of my mouse so i. look yeah this isn't the first time it's happened. i had a window open and then it just closed by so and then some other stuff pops up that's what the heck's going on well it could be a virus it's been happening all morning. she's going slightly mad just.
3:55 pm
amazing let's give a couple minutes or so she calms down. also non-work related social network she closed which is our way to second or to second phones god sake come on suspect something maybe. ok we'll leave it. i did it anyway aleksei in the office this is my computer is acting like it's got a mind of its own seriously it's been moving the cursor by itself and closing messages by itself what's wrong with it it's just taking me to frequently visited so it's just that with what's going on. it's one. bit worrying because she's not doing anything on the computer now either i should see what. ok ok good oh ok.
3:56 pm
she's. confused. ok maybe i'll fix the problem. wait a sec. they didn't touch anything i was holding my phone with my left hand. guy to comb just what he wanted really an. entire i.t. department was in on the joke so there was no chance that they'd give the game away . right so the i.t. guy has been and gone. to collect a second time which is cause the parallel screen to display on her computer so unfortunately we've been busted. what is this that didn't this computer is being used remotely by parallels who did this. not connecting i think we've been rumbled. we're moving toward a situation where we users don't care whether their apps or data are stored on
3:57 pm
a cloud on a desktop or never will do us they just want to have a convenient way of working with them. and that's exactly what we're trying to achieve with their parallels. if you want of course we're going to painter a flower that even find golf would be proud of by way of apology remote access ops make us even more connected to the rest of the world which while making our lives easier also presents its own sense of privacy challenges so it's probably best not seen stories on a shared computer but if you do make sure you tick all the rights privacy boxes and you'll be absolutely fine and once you're all set so you can kick back and play your favorite computer game remote. i'm afraid that's all for this month but if you can't wait an entire month for the next episode of technology one hundred pages on all the major social networks
3:58 pm
behind the scenes takes takes an eclipse since a few shows so next time enjoy the ride. gender trump it symbolizes the gender madness in swedish acadian here because i found this. project foreigners with seventy thousand euro to investigate the trunk from a gender perspective. we think of why we think there are no. rules and beaches. coconut palms gently swaying in the ocean breeze. and frank. why he has
3:59 pm
a deep dark little secret a secret the u.s. government would like you to know. to allegri. oh i didn't really have succeeded to get all wilderness. differently here in syria now many of the members of congress of both parties have gone to syria in recent months has said they are former pm mr president we choose diddy's tell him well you can. still be
4:00 pm
a peace to syria is going to be a subset. right now it's midnight here in moscow this is r t international headlining ten russian troops to tango in ukraine are for apparently crossing the border accidentally returned home. to the big stories of the week something of cranes most battle hardened units and a massive counterattack the government soldiers played the kiev and kiev accusing russia of a stealth invasion. report to this hour on how islamic state terrorists are exploiting black market trade and. to nurture that you have used empire in iraq and syria. also bahraini police to arrest a well known opposition activist.
