Young Engineers From the Jewish Autonomous Region Shine at National Science Festival in Perm
Students from a regional tech park drew crowds with VR, mobile, and game design projects at a major nationwide event.
A delegation from the Kvantorium children’s technopark in the Jewish Autonomous Region presented its projects at the National Science Festival Nauchnaya vselennaya Pervykh (Scientific Universe of the First) in Perm, which brought together more than 2,000 students from 62 regions of Russia.
The team showcased several projects, with a VR tour titled Russkaya derevnya (Russian Village) becoming a standout attraction. Festival attendees lined up to experience the virtual recreation of traditional rural life. Visitors from other regions also showed strong interest in the mobile app Taynye tropy EAO (Secret Trails of the Jewish Autonomous Region), asking to download it on the spot. A board game called Prizrachnyy poyezd (Ghost Train) became one of the most popular exhibits at the Perm Expo venue. A redesign concept for Russian Railways uniforms also attracted attention from both students and industry professionals.
