Russian president awarded the title of “Honored Inventor” to a professor at FIT TSU

Vladimir Putin signed a decree awarding the title of "Honored Inventor" to Vladimir Syryamkin, professor at the Faculty of Innovative Technologies of Tomsk State University, in recognition of his fruitful activity over many years. The scientist holds over 100 patents in the fields of robotics, computed tomography, and automation of production processes. 

Under Vladimir Syryamkin's leadership or with his participation, many projects saw the light of day, including a number of robotic systems. Among them is a robotic platform for inspecting areas for chemical and radiation contamination. The "smart" robot is able to determine the qualitative and quantitative composition of mixtures in the air, as well as identify various dangerous substances, including explosive ones. The self-propelled platform can also be used to evacuate people and cargo weighing up to 120 kilograms. 

Another project done with the participation of the TSU professor is a hardware and software complex for protection against reconnaissance drones used for industrial and military espionage. The creation of new appliances, materials, and technologies to ensure the national and industrial safety of the country is one of the key areas that Tomsk State University is developing in the strategic project "Security Technologies", implemented with the support of the federal program Priority 2030.

One of the achievements of the scientific group headed by FIT’s Professor Syryamkin is further developing the making of digital computed tomography. New hardware and algorithms created by TSU scientists make it possible to significantly expand its capabilities. In particular, a tomograph has been created at FIT for a subsidiary of Roscosmos to study the structure of space satellites. The scientific group has also developed several hardware modifications and approaches that can find various applications, for example, the inspection of oil pipelines in the oil and gas sector and the study of large objects in the aviation industry and shipbuilding. 

The TSU scientist owns 122 intellectual property patents: inventions, models, and computer programs, among which 90 are hardware and procedures. All of them are sought-after by many commissioners, including foreign ones. For example, the scientists of TSU's FIT have developed software for the Laotian government that automates the documentation process in construction, housing and utilities, and agriculture, thereby increasing the efficiency of management. 

"It is very pleasant that the results of my work and of the entire staff at Faculty of Innovative Technologies are highlighted at such a high level" – says Vladimir Syryamkin – "This confirms that TSU creates world-class equipment and technologies. Thanks to the Rector of TSU Eduard Galazhinskiy for his attention and support of our scientific group."
