[ Space research ]
A study of how young people see Russian space today: what inspires them, what feels too distant, which images build trust, and where interest in science, technology and future careers begins.
[ Scientific volunteering platform ]
A web platform for scientific volunteering: participants send photos and geotags of invasive plants, while the research team receives data prepared for review and analysis.
[ Artificial intelligence ]
A digital assistant for career guidance and youth skills. In dialogue, participants get advice on choosing a profession, building skills and shaping a personal growth path.
[ Neurocognitive research ]
Urban research through attention data: where respondents look, what they notice first, and which spatial elements truly hold the gaze.
[ Phygital projects ]
A study of digital experience in cultural spaces: museums, libraries, exhibition halls and other places where culture meets digital services. The project looks at how visitors use technology, what makes the experience smoother, and where digital tools truly support a living encounter with culture.
[ Cultural initiatives ]
An international cultural initiative about symbols, images and a shared humanitarian language among BRICS, CIS and SCO countries. The project connects research, outreach and public diplomacy.
[ Artificial intelligence ]
We study how Russian open language models work with Russian: whether they understand context, keep the logic of an answer, explain difficult topics, and can help citizen science, education and project work.
[ Applied AI ]
A comprehensive project on using artificial intelligence in real social, educational and research tasks. The Udobny Gorod team has worked with Russian protected-area professionals, held weekly sessions for children and young people, built educational formats for scientific volunteers and developed mentoring work with young researchers.
The project also includes a platform for practising with generative tools: text, images and learning scenarios. Younger participants get a prompting assistant that helps them learn faster how to ask AI useful questions and get meaningful results.
[ Ecology and citizen science ]
Research into urban and natural environments where data helps reveal real ecological processes: the condition of places, local observations, human behaviour and opportunities for civic participation.
[ AR and space ]
Augmented reality for communicating Russian space work: digital objects, showcase scenarios and formats that make a complex technological subject more tangible and clear.
[ AR/VR technologies ]
Development of immersive virtual-reality spaces and augmented-reality elements for research, education and exhibition tasks.
[ Supporting talented youth ]
"Udobny Gorod" joins projects in different fields as a co-organiser, mentor and technology partner. We help young people develop meaningful initiatives, including interregional, national and international work. Our mentoring projects include:
+ Virtual patriotic exhibition "Points of Memory"
+ Phygital quiz "Remember First"
+ Phygitalon 2.0 track "Science of the Future"
+ Competition "Korolev: Panoramas of the Future"
+ Digital space showcase
We bring together researchers, scientists and specialists to help modern cities grow through science, digital technologies and civic initiatives.
The ecosystem includes a phydigital laboratory built as a technology hub, a portfolio of research and outreach projects, partner laboratories at leading universities, international initiatives, and our own work in artificial intelligence, 3D modelling and spatial design.
