The Polytechnic University held a regional robotics Olympiad for students from St. Petersburg universities. Representatives from the Higher School of Automation and Robotics of the Institute of Mechanical Engineering, Materials, and Transport at SPbPU took first place in both the team and individual competitions.

The annual Robotics Olympiad was organized by the Committee for Science and Higher Education of the Government of St. Petersburg in partnership with the Saint Petersburg Electrotechnical University "LETI." The Higher School of Automation and Robotics of SPbPU served as the event's operator in partnership with Kaspersky Lab.

This year, a record number of teams—17 from ten St. Petersburg universities—appeared in the Olympiad. Vladimir Glukhov, Advisor to the Rector's Office of SPbPU; Nadezhda Grashchenko, Head of the Directorate of Main Educational Programs at SPbPU; Denis Kozlikin, Deputy Director for Research at the Institute of Mathematics and Information Technology; Olga Matsko, Director of the Higher School of Architecture and Russian Studies; and Olga Blitshtein, a representative of Kaspersky Lab, addressed the participants with welcoming remarks.

The jury included representatives from the participating universities. Students from the HSE University of Architecture and Radio Engineering (HSAR) and the PoliRoboTech student engineering association provided technical support to the teams. The Olympiad has been held at the Polytechnic University since 2008, and its organization has improved each year. First and foremost, the challenge was updated to reflect the latest trends in robotics. The organizers prepared a new, technologically advanced testing ground and unique robots. However, the biggest surprise for the participants was that the traditional robotic challenges were supplemented with relevant cyberimmunity challenges. A digital twin, which replicated the specifics of the testing ground and the robot's behavior, allowed the students to test their solutions in advance and develop a strategy for their performance at the Olympiad.

"A cyber-immune approach to design safety is one of the key areas of modern robotics. We modeled real-world threats that robotic systems face in the digital world so that future engineers can learn to create not only smart but also secure robots," said Andrey Klinovitsky, head of the PoliRoboTech association.

In the individual competition, SPbPU student Yegor Meshkov (fourth-year student at the Higher School of Architecture and Radio Engineering) took gold. Second place was shared by Voenmech students Sergey Filyanov and Alexander Bezukhov. Third place was taken by Voenmech students Danil Zhukov and Semyon Dudnikov, as well as SPbPU student Elizaveta Skornyakova (fourth-year student at the Higher School of Architecture and Radio Engineering).

Students from the M. A. Bonch-Bruevich St. Petersburg State University of Telecommunications (SPbSUT) won the team competition. The Polytechnic team, comprised of fourth-year students from the Higher School of Architecture and Radio Engineering (HSAEiR) Alexander Timofeev, Artyom Tabunshchik, Vadim Berko, Anatoly Moiseenko, and Mikhail Orlov, took a respectable second place. The team from the St. Petersburg State Marine Technical University (SPbGMTU) took third place.

Intellectual Property as Currency: Polytechnic University Transforms Knowledge into Capital

Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

Source: Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

In today's knowledge-based economy, intellectual property is becoming a key asset and driver of development. For a university, a generator of ideas and technologies, the issue of building a transparent and effective IP management system is becoming more than a secondary one, becoming strategic. The experience of Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University demonstrates how a comprehensive approach can transform scientific research results into tangible capital for businesses and the regional economy.

A system instead of isolated actions

Effective IP management begins not with patent registration, but with a well-established organizational and regulatory framework. At SPbPU, this function is performed by the Center for Intellectual Property and Technology Transfer, led by Ismail Kadiev. The university has developed and implemented a set of internal documents that regulate the entire life cycle of intellectual property—from its creation to commercialization.

The "Regulations on Intellectual Property," "Regulations for the Disposition of Exclusive Rights," and "Regulations on Incentives for the Creation of IP Objects" form a transparent system. It not only protects the rights of researchers but also provides them with direct material and reputational incentives, thereby fostering a culture of invention within the university.

Three Events – One Vector: From Strategy to Practice

The university's systemic work is most clearly demonstrated through its participation in key industry events, where Polytechnic University acts not simply as a participant, but as an ideologist and driver of change.

Congress "Intellectual Code of the Commonwealth": Integration and Access to Data"

At a forum bringing together representatives from universities, government, and business, Polytechnic University presented a strategy whose key element is a second-tier regional Technology and Innovation Support Center (TISC). Ranked among the top 15 such structures in Russia, the Center provides university researchers and developers with direct, real-time access to the Federal Institute of Industrial Property databases. This significantly accelerates patent searches and improves the quality of research, avoiding duplication and identifying opportunities in relevant technological niches.

Roundtable discussion at the Russian Industrialist 2025 forum: IS as a driver of regional development

Hosting a federal-level discussion on its own platform is already a sign of recognition. The roundtable focused on the role of the TISC in regional development. In his presentation, Ismail Kadiev outlined the Polytechnic University's philosophy: Intellectual property is not just a patent in a box; it is the currency of a new technological paradigm. The university's goal is not to be a passive registrar, but an active "catalyst," turning Polytechnic University ideas into business capital.

The discussion resulted in specific proposals for government agencies, including incentives for inventive activity and the introduction of lending mechanisms secured by IP rights, demonstrating the dialogue's practical focus.

The 16th Interregional Intellectual Property Exchange: A Platform for Commercialization and a Live Case

This event, also organized by SPbPU as part of the "Russian Industrialist" program, was the culmination of practical work. The IP Exchange is a vibrant ecosystem where theory meets practice. A striking example of successful commercialization was the presentation of the Polanis digital platform for modeling transport systems and analyzing multimodal data.

Polytechnic University scientists presented not just a software product, but a solution with fundamental scientific innovation. The key feature of Polanis is its hybrid approach, combining simulation modeling and machine learning methods (simulation-based neural networks). This allows the platform to offer effective control scenarios while remaining within the framework of physically realistic models.

The platform's behavioral logic is determined by the simulation model we developed. It prevents the platform from proposing unrealistic control scenarios, meaning it doesn't violate existing 'laws of physics,'" explained project manager Marina Bolsunovskaya.

The platform boasts impressive capabilities: object coordinate accuracy of up to 5 cm and support for predictive and prescriptive analytics. Its cross-industry potential (energy, oil and gas, biomedicine) makes Polanis a valuable asset created within the framework of the Priority 2030 program. The presentation of such a project on the IP Exchange is a clear example of how a transparent intellectual property management system helps bring promising developments to market.

High level as a result of systematic work

SPbPU's experience demonstrates that an effective intellectual property management system at the university is based on three pillars.

A robust regulatory framework that protects rights and incentivizes creators. Infrastructure support through the Technology and Innovation Support Center, which provides resources and expertise. An active communications policy, including knowledge dissemination through forums, roundtables, and, most importantly, practical platforms for dialogue with businesses, such as the IP Exchange.

This approach allows the university not simply to accumulate patents but to integrate science, education, and innovation, translating its scientific potential into competitive products and technologies like the Polanis platform. Intellectual property at Polytechnic University truly becomes a currency, ensuring technological sovereignty and leadership.

Hangzhou, November 11 (Xinhua) — The era of leisurely "citywalks" as the primary way to explore megacities is fading. Today's Chinese tourists, like visitors to Moscow who admire the city from the observation decks of Moscow City or the Ivan the Great Bell Tower, crave more than just a change of perspective—they want to transcend their usual boundaries. Their passion for extreme experiences and thrills has led to a fundamentally new travel philosophy, elevating tourism to a whole new level. The measured pace of walking along the pavement has been replaced by the "Cityfly" trend—literally, "flying over the city."

A VIEW FROM THE HEIGHTS: PERSONAL EXPERIENCE

Following in the footsteps of the previously famous Citywalk, Cityfly, which includes paragliding, skydiving, and helicopter tours, is quickly becoming popular among young Chinese travelers, reflecting changing consumer preferences amid the country's booming low-altitude economy—a burgeoning sector that encompasses air taxis, drones, tourist flights, and more.

On a cool autumn morning, Shanghai resident Li Duo, in her early 20s, took to the skies for the first time on a paraglider, paired with an instructor. The flight took off from the Wanwei Paragliding Base on Mount Moganshan in Deqing County, Zhejiang Province, eastern China.

"It was absolutely breathtaking as I soared above the bamboo groves and tea plantations, the wind rushing in my ears," Li Do shared her vivid impressions after landing. "It opened up a completely new perspective for me and allowed me to take some truly unique photographs."

In May of this year, as part of the 15th China Tourism Day in Hangzhou, capital of Zhejiang Province, several facilities, including the Xianghu Lake helicopter base, the Yun'anshan Mountain paragliding base, and the Jiande Aviation City, joined forces to create a new tourism product, "Hangzhou Flight," which includes sightseeing flights over landmarks, short-term shuttle services, and customized tours.

A Hangzhou resident surnamed Zhang, who flew over the city for the first time, exclaimed: “From above, the Qiantang River looks like a silk ribbon piercing the glittering metropolis, and West Lake and Mount Baoshishan are visible as if in the palm of your hand!”

GROWING POPULARITY: FACTS AND FIGURES

In Zhejiang Province, low-altitude tourism is evolving from a niche hobby into a popular mass entertainment. During the eight-day National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival holidays (October 1–8), Huzhou City, which administers Deqing County, launched 16 low-altitude air routes connecting seven key tourist sites. This initiative attracted significant numbers of tourists.

Yan Aiping, manager of the Wanwei Paragliding Base, noted a significant increase in visitor numbers: while in 2019, when the base first opened, there were less than 10,000 people per year, this figure now exceeds 100,000.

This trend is observed across the country. In Sanya, a popular resort city in Hainan Province (southern China), skydiving has become one of the most popular activities. Zhang Enming, manager of the local skydiving base, reported that in the first quarter of 2025, the base's client flow reached approximately 6,000 people, a 20 percent increase compared to the same period last year.

According to official data, Sanya's low-altitude tourism sector served approximately 287,000 tourists in the first half of 2024, representing a 112 percent year-on-year increase. During the reporting period, the sector's revenue exceeded 730 million yuan (approximately $102.9 million), creating 2,300 jobs. Steady growth continues this year.

RUNWAY: PROSPECTS AND CHALLENGES

Zhao Yuehua, an expert at the Aviation Industry Research Center at the China Development Observer, attributes the growing popularity of air tourism to the rapid development of China's low-altitude economy. This has led to lower flight costs and increased public interest in this form of entertainment.

According to him, the cost of low-altitude flights has dropped significantly: from approximately 3,000 yuan per person 10 years ago to approximately 1,000 yuan today. This has made such aerial adventures much more accessible to the general public.

The development of China's low-altitude economy received a major boost after it was included in the government work report published in March 2024, where it was identified as a new driver of economic growth. The Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) estimates that the market size of China's low-altitude economy will reach 1.5 trillion yuan by 2025, and exceed 3.5 trillion yuan by 2035.

Data shows that there are currently 89,000 active low-tech businesses in China. Of these, approximately 11,700 were registered in the first five months of this year, representing a 220 percent year-on-year increase and already exceeding the total number of registrations for the entire previous year.

However, behind this rapid development lie challenges in the areas of safety and other aspects that cannot be ignored. An industry insider acknowledges that low-altitude tourism is highly dependent on weather, terrain, and seasonality, while airspace clearance and flight safety monitoring remain key constraints for the industry.

According to Wang Xiaoyu, a specially invited expert from the World Tourism Cities Federation (WTCF), ensuring the sustainable development of low-altitude tourism requires adhering to "professionalism and safety." Access permit standards must be clearly defined at all stages, from product design to operational assessment.

Cityfly isn't just a change of transport and a transition from feet to wings. It's a clear sign of the transformation of consumer consciousness and China's technological breakthrough. Tourists are transforming from street observers into active participants in the air, redefining the very essence of travel. And while some admire the views from the Ivan the Great Bell Tower, others are already soaring through the skies, rediscovering their country from a bird's eye view.

Fifth-year students from the Institute of Civil Engineering at Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University, studying the "Construction of Unique Buildings and Structures" program, visited TITAN-2 Holding facilities and the Leningrad Nuclear Power Plant construction site in Sosnovy Bor. They were accompanied by Evgeniya Zavodnova, senior lecturer at the Institute of Civil Engineering and Highway Construction, and Elena Alonzova, a specialist in educational and methodological work at the Institute of Civil Engineering and Highway Construction.

The event included an introductory lecture, during which TITAN-2 representatives discussed the holding's history and development, its structure, subsidiaries, and the company's main nuclear and other facilities. Special attention was paid to corporate culture, employment and career opportunities, and the "External Talent Pool" project, which aims to attract university graduates. A quiz was organized for students. All participants received commemorative souvenirs.

The students then visited the holding's museum, where they learned about the history of Sosnovy Bor, the role of TITAN-2 in its development, and the specifics of its ongoing nuclear projects. The group then visited the production site of TITAN TECHNOLOGY PIPELINE LLC, where they observed the full manufacturing cycle of pipelines for nuclear power facilities in real time. The shop foreman explained the production organization, its key stages, quality control, and testing of manufactured products, and answered the students' questions.

The students also visited the construction sites of the seventh and eighth power units of the Leningrad NPP-2. The group observed the assembly of the nuclear island building structures and waterproofing work on the monolithic structures. The students were interested in the construction site organization, the operation of tower cranes, the assembly of massive structures, and other aspects of the operation.

TITAN-2 is a strategic partner of Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University. Many ISI students complete internships at the holding's construction sites and subsequently become part of its professional team. TITAN-2 traditionally expresses its willingness to collaborate and is pleased to welcome students and graduates of the university as employees.

Organizing tours of key nuclear industry facilities aligns with the institute's strategic goals of training highly qualified engineering personnel. "I am confident that such experiences not only broaden students' professional horizons but also contribute to the development of a new generation of engineers prepared to tackle the most complex challenges in nuclear construction," commented Marina Petrochenko, Director of the Civil Engineering Institute.

These types of excursions are a valuable experience for our students. Seeing the scale of nuclear facility construction firsthand and interacting with industry professionals—no lecture can replace this kind of hands-on experience. Students return with sparkling eyes, full of ideas, and motivation to grow in their profession. It's precisely this combination of theory and practice that makes learning truly effective," shared Evgenia Zavodnova.

Beijing, November 11 (Xinhua) — At 12:00 a.m. Monday Beijing time, a mini-program was officially launched on the Chinese mobile messaging app WeChat. This program allows Chinese drivers to apply in advance to reserve a spot for customs inspection at Kazakhstani border crossings when leaving the country by car. This was announced in a statement posted on the WeChat account of the Chinese Ministry of Transport.

The statement states that this system allocates separate quotas for Chinese drivers to register in queues at Kazakhstan's border crossings. A bilingual interface in Chinese and Russian makes it easier to use, eliminating language barriers and other inconveniences associated with Chinese drivers using Kazakhstan's electronic queuing system, and also addresses the high costs of agency services.

The new system's algorithm is simple: a Chinese driver registers for the mini-program and logs in to enter personal information, as well as vehicle and insurance policy information. They then select the intended date and name of the Kazakhstani border crossing for exiting China. After the back office verifies the information registered on the server, the driver makes an online payment of $8 and makes a deposit of $160 according to the instructions, thus completing the vehicle clearance process. Upon successful customs clearance within the specified timeframe, the deposit is returned to the driver as per the standard procedure.

The first time, it will take about 3 minutes to fill in all the information and data, and in subsequent times, filling out the corresponding page will take less than 1 minute.

The statement said that as an important measure to deepen cooperation in international road transport between China and Kazakhstan, the launch of the mini-program is designed to improve the efficiency of international road transport corridors between the two countries, reduce logistics costs for enterprises, and promote bilateral trade and economic cooperation.

Both parties are prepared to continue collaborating on the ongoing optimization of the mini-program's functions, taking into account feedback and suggestions from driver users. Furthermore, the parties also intend to accelerate the integration of the Chinese and Kazakh electronic licensing systems to promote stronger connectivity between the two countries and help them establish closer trade and economic ties, the statement stated.
