First Laboratory of 5G and IoT forward research opens in Russia
Tactile gloves, robotic hands, augmented reality cameras and glasses, hexacopters with a WiGig station on board – this is what is used by RUDN mathematicians to demonstrate the possibilities of 5G nets and IoT research.
G.Klimenko, RF President’s advisor: «Digital economy is the latest trend and Russia is one of three full digital cycle countries – Russia, China and the USA. We need better connection and faster Internet, which requires substantial research».

A RUDN agrotechnologist has identified wheat genotypes that are resistant to a dangerous fungal pathogen that infects plants even before the snow melts and reduces yields.
RUDN University engineers have calculated the parameters of a system that can prevent lunar power plants from overheating. These developments will be needed when planning for long-term lunar missions and colonizing the satellite.
Landfills are the third largest source of anthropogenic methane in the world. They account for ~11% of estimated global emissions. Methane is 80 times more powerful than carbon dioxide and is the second largest driver of man-made climate change. Scientists from around the world met at Zhejiang University's Hangzhou campus to determine the best available technologies for recovering energy and materials from non-recyclable residual waste.
