Plasma shield technology - to protect objects using a ¨shield¨is this a jurno fantasy or ... or a real stuff which is actually being in development that´s why is so silent about it?

If it is true then IMHO good way to protect ships or important objects. Maybe if used in upper layers atmosphere kinda of PGS ¨deflector shield¨

I have seen reports on this more than twenty years ago. I think the idea is to focus energy with, let's say, a special "AESA" in a "wall-like" region in the air in front of the target, creating a "wall" of high-energy plasma in the target's path. The target hitting it, possibly asymmetrically, would get deflected/destroyed, possibly due to asymmetrical forces.

MOSCOW, 4 Jun — RIA Novosti/Prime. The first stage of testing of a prototype of an unmanned vehicle on KAMAZ chassis, confirming the work of all systems, was successfully completed on the site in Naberezhnye Chelny, the report said Cognitive Technologies, which together with "KAMAZ" and "VIST Group" implements the project.
"Unmanned vehicle today able to independently control the gas and brake pedals, steering wheel and automatic transmission. These developments are proceeding in a regular mode", — commented the President of the company Cognitive Technologies Olga Uskova.
Reportedly, the tests were conducted on a limited, closed territory h meters, the speed did not exceed 10 km/h In the near future tests will continue on one of the polygons of the emergencies Ministry in Moscow region, says the company. It is planned the development of a detection of the border of the road, road users, road signs, detour or stop in front of the obstacle, the movement in the column, and others.
"Failover mode detection of the road and other elements of the traffic scene is one of the most critical elements of the test, since it deals with performance evaluation of artificial intelligence in their purest form, without the aid of any additional devices and appliances. And man, she sees and understands where the roadbed ends and begins the side of that road sign is different from the poster and what the person in front of you and not other, similar to the shape of the object," explains Uskova.

Electroencephalography, used widely in medicine, is said to be the basis for this technology.
Do we really need a physical presence if the mind can be preserved? And how close are we to being able to transfer our consciousness to a computer?

MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Russia has developed technology that allows equipment to be controlled by the mind, head of Russian Fund for Perspective Research Andrei Grigoriev said Monday.
"We have a project called the ‘mind-computer’ interface, which has been demonstrated numerous times. Federal agencies have already shown interest in [acquiring] the know-how. We have received requests for the intellectual property rights and the results [of the research] to be transferred to them in accordance with the law," Grigoriev told RIA Novosti.

According to Grigoriev, at the moment the fund is working on correctly transferring the project.

In January, technology for controlling robots by means of electrical brain signals was demonstrated for Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Siberian scientists have presented a prototype device for quick construction of tunnels under the ground, which can be used to build underground facilities in the combat zone, and the salvation of people under the rubble. It is called geohod. Underground boat ready for testing


As the director of Yurga Technological Institute of Tomsk Polytechnic University Andrei Efremenkov, the world is nothing like that, because all of the devices that operate under, acting on the boundary between media - air and solid. The very environment they were not involved. A geohod - a device that moves in a solid medium and uses it to create a so-called pressure effort to secure a longitudinal movement. While a prototype. It is a cylindrical body with a diameter of 3.2 meters. At the head of the unit is set rock cutting device on the periphery - screw and longitudinal elements that allow you to create crowd force. At the end of 2015 planned test geohoda. It is expected that the device will be manufactured in different versions for different purposes. "If the Emergencies Ministry, we are talking about the mobile sector, which can be quickly delivered to the disaster zone to rescue victims under the rubble. In the case of the military - a lining of communications. If you succeed, it will be a real breakthrough. Because this communication, and city tunnels, and other areas, "- said Efremenkov.

We develop it based on the fact that in future wars soldiers will mostly fight, controlling robotic systems, and being from the field of battle at a safe distance.
Let me explain. Outfit will be full with special devices enabling the exchange of information among all units of fighters and various robotic systems. Plans to create a single information field of combat.

Is the development of composite guns and new bullets with special armor-piercing long-range properties
However, the war itself is unlikely to be a destiny of cars. Live soldiers in the battles of the future will still be present. Therefore, we also are working to create a breakthrough system of biomedical support of the military and provide them first aid on the battlefield.

New medical tools that are being developed with the assistance of our Foundation, is aimed at strengthening the endurance of a soldier. Go the quest for accelerated recovery after overloads. A very important question - an extension of the "Golden hour" - that period of time when the provision of medical care to seriously wounded soldier is able to save his life. The problem is solved for the accelerated healing of wounds. Has created a special gel that when applied them even on a deep wound, stop the bleeding, not able to develop sepsis and give the effect of anesthesia.  In the future, as we think, it is possible to resolve the issue even regenerate damaged organs.

There are works on the creation of robots, androids, able not only to evacuate the wounded from the fire, but assist directly in the field of surgical assistance.


When can we expect the first Russian quantum computer?

Andrey Grigoriev: Your question can be formulated as follows: are you ready to fulfill five-year plan in three years? Well, seriously, the Foundation conducts research on several areas for the development of electronic component base. This breakthrough research in the development of silicon-based electronics, and quantum computing and neuromorphic systems, and believe that radio Photonics.

Only with the help of quantum technologies can be opened new materials for the nuclear industry, pharmaceuticals, designed the mechanisms of nuclear reactions. We are actively engaged in this.

How will change gear for the Russian infantry?

Andrey Grigoriev: Now we are developing a new composite barrels , which are much lighter than usual. Created a fundamentally new family of bullets, for example, of two or more metals, with a special armor-piercing long-range properties. Designed intelligent scopes, advanced sniper rocket complex with a controllable bullet, and more.

The company "Istok" and the Central Research Institute "Cyclone" (included in the holding "Russian Electronics") are engaged in the preparation of serial production "uncooled microbolometer detectors matrix" that form the basis of thermal imaging devices, according to the representative of the Research Institute Alexey Gorbunov.

According to him, "Russia became the fourth country in the world after the US, France and China, who managed to create their own thermal imaging matrix".

"Samples corresponding to the parameters to the world level. The country has established the production with the release of up to 10 thousand units per year ", -. Gorbunov said.

According to military expert in the field of armored vehicles, Sergei Suvorov, "thermal imaging camera - one of the most important parts of modern war machine, and unlike other sights imager is able to work in complete darkness and zero visibility."

"The imager includes not only die, but also an optical system, and the software is able to process and visualize on-screen image, including the detected target. Until recently, we purchased the French matrix Thales Catherine-FC and Sagem Matiz, based on which were created Thermal sighting system "Essa" for T-90 tanks and "Plisa" T-80 ", - he explained.

"Russia's sights with the same matrix were better than the French, - said the expert. - Since our country was better technology for manufacturing of lenses and software. "

"The equipment, produced in the country, it is not just the sights, this complex system as a weapon guidance and night driving techniques. That is, such systems allow to continue the movement of equipment, even if the armored car crew lost the opportunity to personally monitor the situation through the cockpit glazing "- said Suvorov.

Help the newspaper: "The production of domestic matrices could begin as early as 2010, but because of the" French "of the contract implementation of their own development is constantly postponed. Today, the Ministry of Defense is prepared to order not only thermal imaging systems for armored vehicles, but also sights for small arms and MANPADS, which just used uncooled microbolometer matrix receivers. So, for MANPADS "Igla" and "Willow" set sights "Mowgli" and "Mowgli-1." On the whole armor of "Almaty was", "Kurgan" and "Typhoon" and even ships will be put "Slingshot". "
