Categories / Science. Education/Science and Planning Institutions

CENTRAL RESEARCH INSTITUTE OF ROBOTICS AND ENGINEERING CYBERNETICS, located at 21 Tikhoretsky Avenue, was established in 1961 as the Experimental-Design Bureau of Engineering Cybernetics at Leningrad Polytechnic Institute. It was transformed into the Central Scientific Research and Experimental Design Institute of Robotics and Engineering Cybernetics in 1981. The institute received the status of a state scientific centre in 1994. In the institute the ‘soft’ landing systems for the probe Soyuz, were developed. The landing systems for probes landing on the moon, the on board control system for the spaceship Buran, the sealing systems for the International Space Station, remote bomb disarmament devices and many other systems were developed and invented at the institute. The institute’s building (1973-86) with a tower for testing simulations of weightlessness (1979-81, architects S. V. Savin, B. I. Artyushin) became one of the symbols of the present-day Lesnoy Avenue.
