Specialists urban economy complex Last year, more than 60 kilometers of barriers damaged in road accidents were repaired, according to the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Housing, Utilities, and Public Works. Petr Biryukov.

"Repairing barriers damaged by vehicle collisions is a key focus for road services. Last year, over 60 kilometers of such structures were restored. Most often, repairs were carried out on sections of ring and outbound highways," noted Pyotr Biryukov.

Reconstruction of one such section takes from one and a half to two hours, depending on its length and the nature of the damage.

The head of the city's infrastructure department clarified that Moscow uses modern road barriers capable of supporting a vehicle weighing up to nine tons at a speed of 60 kilometers per hour. These barriers help reduce the severity of accidents, preventing cars from crossing into oncoming traffic and, consequently, from colliding head-on with another vehicle.

During repairs, special piling rigs are used to dismantle damaged elements and then install new structures.

In Moscow, an artificial intelligence (AI) service has begun automatically detecting osteoporosis in its early stages. This is a disease that causes bone density to decrease. The neural network can detect its signs in the early stages. It analyzes and identifies pathological features in CT scans performed for other clinical indications. This was reported by Anastasia Rakova, Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Social Development.

"We are consistently integrating artificial intelligence technologies into our daily practice, for example, in analyzing X-rays for various clinical indications. This approach to additional pathology screening allows us to prevent problems early, rather than dealing with the consequences. We recently introduced automated osteoporosis screening in CT scans. It detects the disease in its early stages, when a person isn't even aware of the problem, while it's developing asymptomatically. This eliminates the need for a separate examination, which reduces radiation exposure. Furthermore, we can begin treatment earlier, reducing the risk of severe fractures," explained Anastasia Rakova.

The service automatically analyzes CT scans and independently detects signs of osteoporosis. The neural network highlights all potentially problematic areas of bone tissue with red or orange indicators.

"Osteoporosis is a metabolic skeletal disease characterized by decreased bone mass and disruption of bone microarchitecture. Its insidious nature is that it often goes unnoticed until serious complications and injuries develop. These services work with existing studies and help detect important changes in bone tissue. A neural network highlights abnormal areas in a medical image, performs the necessary measurements, and generates a text description. Comprehensive AI services can simultaneously detect up to 14 pathologies in a single study. This approach will allow Muscovites undergoing examinations for various clinical indications to receive additional insurance against one of the most subtle and dangerous age-related diseases," emphasized the chief physician of the Moscow Diagnostics and Telemedicine Center. Department of Health Yuri Vasiliev.

Artificial intelligence helps doctors detect pathologies more quickly at early stages and improve the accuracy of imaging measurements. The final diagnosis is always made by a specialist, who takes into account the analysis results and the radiologist's description of the image.

Today, Moscow doctors can use over 60 AI services to detect disease signs across 43 clinical areas. Furthermore, the healthcare system uses 12 integrated solutions that simultaneously identify multiple pathologies in a single medical image. AI services have already analyzed nearly two million CT scans.

An experiment on the use of innovative computer vision technologies in healthcare has been underway since 2020. This is being carried out by specialists from the Moscow Diagnostics and Telemedicine Center. Department of Health together with the city Department of Information TechnologyThe project is in line with the goals of the Moscow healthcare development strategy through 2030 and aims to improve the quality and accessibility of medical care for Moscow residents.

The unmanned cleaning robot "Pixel" is operating in Moscow parks and on several streets. It was developed by the Moscow-based company "Avtonomika," a resident of the Lomonosov cluster. The first units were deployed in 2023 and were used for unmanned cleaning in the city center. The company currently has over 35 operational cleaning robots and several prototypes.

In 2024–2025, the Moscow Innovation Cluster, subordinate to the capital’s Department of Entrepreneurship and Innovative Development, conducted an experiment with year-round robotic cleaning. Innovative assistants maintained 50th Anniversary of October Park and the Raduga, Khodynskoye Pole, Kuzminki-Lyublino, and Sokolniki ponds. The robots were successfully tested on urban areas covering a total of 618 hectares. The experiment demonstrated that the "Pixels" provided high-quality cleaning of all hard surfaces and performed approximately 50 percent of the tasks required for park maintenance, including snow removal and path washing.

Thanks to its attachments, Pixel can operate year-round, reducing the need for dedicated personnel by up to 30 percent. The robot currently carries out regular cleaning in several city parks and the Skolkovo Innovation Center.

Pixel was designed, entirely engineered, and assembled in Moscow. It combines modern design, cutting-edge technology, and innovative solutions. Pixel can reach speeds of up to 10 kilometers per hour and operate for up to 16 hours a day with intermittent recharges, cleaning up to two hectares of land—2.5 times more than other robots.

The developers also paid attention to safety. They equipped the robot with a multi-sensor navigation system and computer vision technology. This allows Pixel to confidently navigate its environment and avoid collisions.

In 2026, Moscow plans to expand the use of innovative technology and test new types of attachments. These include leaf and pine blowers and snow removal and de-icing equipment. Furthermore, the robot is also planned for use in other industries, such as repair work, construction, and landscaping.

Pixel solves the labor shortage problem and opens up vast opportunities for new professions. For example, even people with limited mobility can remotely control and monitor the robot. The implementation of such technologies allows for the digitalization and automation of cleaning processes, providing full control over task execution and saving on consumables. The use of an electric motor makes the robot environmentally friendly and comfortable for city residents.

Earlier, Sergei Sobyanin told the President of Russia about the development of the capital's unmanned systemsThanks to the synthesis of domestic scientific, educational, and industrial potential, a new industry is being created in the city. Vladimir Putin noted that Moscow is the undisputed leader in creating an economy based on unmanned systems, and this experience should be shared with other regions.
