Visit us on Researchers' Night

Behind the Scenes of the Supercomputing Centre

See places where few people usually go and learn what it takes to run a supercomputer. From the basement, where a unique backup power system is hidden, to the roof, where heat exchangers with heat pumps to heat our entire building and provide domestic hot water.

WHERE: Meeting at the reception on the ground floor 10 minutes early.

WHEN: 4 pm, 5.30 pm, and 6 pm

Excursions will be held in the Czech language and are suitable for adults and children from 8 years of age. REGISTRATION is required.

Science in Virtual Reality

Please sit back, put on the 3D glasses, and become part of the scientific projects we are working on, which we bring into virtual reality. What looks like a cinema at first glance is the Visualisation and Virtual Reality Lab. And as a bonus, we have prepared a virtual tour of our data room.

WHERE: Meeting at the reception on the ground floor 10 minutes early.

WHEN: 5 pm, 6 pm, 7.30 pm, and 8.30 pm

Excursions will be held in the Czech language and are suitable for adults and children from 8 years of age. REGISTRATION is required. 

What could emergency calls look like in the near future? We will introduce you to the ongoing project implemented under the auspices of the Ministry of the Interior of the Czech Republic, whose primary goal is to move artificial intelligence technologies closer to practical use on emergency lines, especially for fully automated or assisted processing of incidents generating a large number of calls and thus leading to overload of emergency lines.

Do you know how current "artificial intelligence" works and how it is possible that a computer can have a meaningful conversation? If not, or if you want to learn more about AI, this talk is just for you.

Come and hear what the supercomputing center is, what it is used for, what it helps, and what projects are solved there.

All this and more in the lecture by the IT4Innovations Scietific Director himself, who will answer everything you have ever wanted to know about supercomputers!

Agents, save our supercomputer centre!

Another important mission awaits you, Agent IT4Innovations! Hackers have attacked our supercomputer centre. They want to steal important scientific data. Your mission is to go through all the stations and complete the tasks in order to get the secret code and to deactivate the computer virus. A SUPER reward awaits if you succeed!

A close-up look at a supercomputers

Stop by our showroom, take a closer look at the most powerful supercomputers in the Czech Republic, and learn what they consist of, what software they use, what is the difference between a regular computer and a supercomputer, and what they have in common or what is their consumption. Just everything you might be interested in about supercomputers.

IT4Innovations Supercomputing Services specialists will answer all your questions about supercomputers.

Science fiction or reality?

Do you like science fiction? Even the adventures of the heroes in our comics may seem unreal. We have included a good deal of imagination, but the basis is the real work of scientists. Curious readers can "read" the rewards in our comics, but most importantly, they can meet the superheroes who are turning science fiction into reality.

Robot football

Robot football is a constantly evolving field of science that deals with the uncertain and dynamic environment of interacting agents - robots. It combines many seemingly disparate areas of interest, such as research on multi-agent systems, real-time camera image processing, controlling and steering autonomous robots, path planning and cooperation between robots on the playing field, obstacle avoidance, and often involves machine learning methods, otherwise known as AI - artificial intelligence. At IT4Innovations, we are developing an in-house robot football 3D simulator based on these scientific methods. 

Come and try it out, create your own game strategy for your robot team, and try to beat your siblings, parents, or even our home team from IT4Innovations in robot football!

Virtual reality and supercomputers

Very few people can get into our data room. But you have this unique opportunity thanks to 3D glasses! Come and see our supercomputers from close up indeed.

When exploring the data hall, you can look at the airflow around the car that is placed in the data hall in our virtual reality. Calculating the airflow is very time-consuming, but the computing time is rapidly reduced thanks to supercomputers.

Mathematics unlocks secrets

Mathematics has helped people solve many mysteries since ancient times. Did you know that a single equation can be used to determine whether a painting is an original or a fake, the age of an artefact, the time of death in forensic science, or how much drug we will have in our blood in two hours? Do you have any idea what the secret to successful communication with space probes is or what the secret to efficient puzzle solving is?

Amazing world of nanooptics

We will demonstrate how to create colors using nanostructures, show examples of security holograms and diffractive optics, and explain how to make them using advanced lithography methods and computational design.

... and there will be much more!

Do not hesitate to take your family, friends, and children and come to IT4Innovations.

Entry to this event is free.

We are looking forward to seeing you!
