Vadim Sannikov , a pupil of the children's scientific and engineering creativity "UnikUm", created at KuzSTU (a member of the REC "Kuzbass"), will present his project at the world's largest fair of research and engineering projects of schoolchildren Virtual Regeneron ISEF, which will be held remotely in May 2021. The event will bring together schoolchildren from more than 80 countries.

Vadim's development "Filtering and analysis of various types of electromyography signal intensities for the software and hardware complex for recognizing hand movements" took second place in the category "Theoretical Engineering projects" in the III Children's Scientific Competition of the Andrey Melnichenko Foundation. The student of" UNIKUM " implemented a method of software processing of electromyographic (EMG) signals, and also created a software and hardware complex for recognizing hand movements.

Participation in Virtual Regeneron ISEF 2021 will allow talented Kemerovo residents to demonstrate their achievements and compete with their peers from other countries for grants, scholarships, internships and other awards of the tournament.

"The Children's science competition has been implemented within the framework of the" Program of Support for Gifted schoolchildren in the regions where EUROCHEM, SUEK and SGK companies operate " for 3 years, and since November 2019 it has also been included in the number of affiliated events of ISEF. We are glad that the winners of the competition have the opportunity to make their name known at the review of research and engineering projects, which is often called the "Small Nobel Prize", - said Alexander Cherednik, Executive Director of the Andrey Melnichenko Foundation.
