Connecting with your relatives or friends who live far away may not be an easy task, especially on New Year’s Eve. That’s why our scientists are looking for ways to improve connection quality. One of the solutions was proposed by a team from ITMO’s Higher School of Engineering and Technology, who have designed a fiber-optic sensor that can help maintain and improve the signal both on land and underwater.
Imagine discovering a room where your gadgets never die. There, you won’t need lots of cables and will always know where your charger is – and the lights on your Christmas tree will never go out, just like the ones on our postcard. It may sound like magic, but our researchers are already working on making it true. Not so long ago, they presented a new generation of wireless chargers – a box that evenly distributes a magnetic field within itself. If you want to charge your smartphone or any other device, all you need to do is place it inside the box. In the future, the technology is expected to cover a whole room. Find out more about the project here.
Everyone wants to believe in miracles, but here at ITMO, we know that nothing helps you see magic in everyday life better than science, be it neural networks that can take you to another universe, robots that can do anything, or devices that change our lives.
Every day, the university’s researchers work on fundamental and applied projects meant to solve a range of challenges and make our lives easier. We took some of these technologies and included them in our holiday postcard – which we think has turned out very lovely! Enjoy the card, interact with the objects, read the descriptions, and remember: miracles are everywhere!

Lasers instead of brushes. How do you like that? To decorate holiday baubles with laser etchings, scientists suggest using a method of laser coloring of precious metals based on the plasmon resonance effect. The technology helps create true works of art with no magic or paint.
Every house party has those people who will sit quietly in a corner watching TV or playing board games. Why not have some fun and give perovskite chess a try, then? Having created this wonder, researchers from ITMO’s School of Physics and Engineering never miss a chance to have a game, especially with such a magical set.
The robot artist Gaka Chu, developed by a team from ITMO’s Faculty of Infocommunication Technologies, can draw hieroglyphs and logos and has already sold its first NFT. We’re sure it could make a nice greeting card, as well.
Though not overeating over the holidays may sound impossible, ITMO researchers know how to make any treat both delicious and healthy. A team from ITMO’s Faculty of Biotechnologies are preparing an entire line of functional products, among which are a frozen dessert to replace ice cream, a dry pancake mix, and a plant-based yogurt. Based on plant proteins, the products are rich in vitamins and prebiotics and will cure any sugar cravings over the holiday season.
What if we told you that gingerbread can be not only tasty but also healthy? Our students found a way to trick our taste buds to good use. Recently, they developed a delicious and nutritious dessert based on pea protein isolate. Unlike others, this cookie is 5% protein and makes a perfect snack for athletes and not only. Though made of peas, the cinnamon and cloves make it taste and smell just like gingerbread (Santa Claus-approved).
Imagine a future where everyone has an exoskeleton that lets them easily lift up to 80 kilograms. All those bags overflowing with food for the holiday dinner would no longer pose any trouble! For Alexey Ledyukov, a student from ITMO’s Faculty of Control Systems and Robotics, this future – as well as his own exoskeleton – is already here.
Robots have been our helpers and friends for a long time now. Take, for instance, the robot manipulator created by students from ITMO’s Faculty of Control Systems and Robotics, which can come in handy virtually anywhere, from cafes and restaurants to chemistry labs – not to mention a holiday feast.
