ITMO University and VR/AR Association Host Japan VR/AR Day in St. Petersburg
…ancy, because the real and virtual fields of view are aligned. The difference between virtual and hybrid reality is that in the case of the former, if you’re not holding a controller but simply reaching out with your hand, you won’t feel anything. In addition, virtual reality doesn’t let you look at your feet or from side to side, which gives many a claustrophobic fe…

MTS Lead Architect Mikhail Mishurovsky on Collaboration with ITMO
…ical care. This requires searching for the facts that diverge from the common pattern, which, in turn, leads to a more effective treatment. But I want to emphasize that our role is not to offer this treatment but, rather, to assist a patient in understanding where it is that they have to seek help. In other words, our main goal is routing on the local level. I hop…

Scientists Propose Tractor Beam Concept to Capture Particles Using Light
…stance, metamaterials can support hyperbolic modes: special states of the electromagnetic field that appear when the metamaterial interacts with light. Such states help to control the optical forces that influence objects on the material surface, and, as it turns out, can help to move particles towards the light source. “Our work is fully devoted to creating…

Russian Developers Created a Platform for Interactive Analysis of Metagenomic Data
… analysis starts automatically after the data is uploaded to the cloud. Then the user receives an online report with the results for each analysis stage: from data quality control to statistical hypotheses testing. This report can be then shared with colleagues, used for scientific publications or posted online. “Our development is aimed at helping academic rese…

ITMO Master’s Students Win National Lighting Design Competition
…ems with a new one, having developed a unique solution that accounts for the tunnel’s unique structure. Their solution creates a semblance of the sky and moving clouds via controlled dynamic lighting hidden by panels made from polystyrene. The movements, lighting intensity, and spectral parameters can be changed depending on weather conditions: if it’s gloomy outside…

Scientists Designed Nanocontainers for Bacterial Metabolism Control
…increasingly important, so scientists are constantly looking for alternative ways to influence the metabolism of microorganisms. For example, researchers are now trying to control bacteria by physical means, such as exposure to light. Members of ITMO University’s SCAMT laboratory suggest using special light-sensitive nanocontainers for control…

Inkjet Printers Can Produce Cheap Micro-Waveguides for Optical Computers
…ther elements necessary for processing optical signal. “It is obvious that the creation of elements of data storage and transmission based on the photons movement control is the fundamental technology for future computers. The most difficult part in the engineering of such devices is the development of efficient signal transport lines. But our solution remov…
