I have always been attracted to the idea to teach (program) SOMETHING and then it will independently carry out the intended. I first put this idea into practice while creating a computer program in school. But the engineering idea came to fruition only when a professional programmable controller, according to my algorithm, began to control real physical objects, devices and mechanisms. At one time, it happened at the department of ATEP. The information field of the department, first of all teachers, allows looking more completely and variously at the world of automation and programming.

An indisputable advantage of the department is the availability of equipped laboratories and the opportunity to learn in practice how automation works, and to understand “what is a control system and what it is eaten with.”

The department provides knowledge and experience that will help to enter today’s world as a specialist promising and in demand, whose skills will be interesting in Ukraine and abroad.

The most interesting and progressive has always been at the intersection of sciences. Especially if the result has a practical application. The combination of automatic control and computer technology is just that.

After graduating and gaining practical experience, together with like-minded people, I founded my own company specializing in system integration, automatic control of technological processes and the introduction of innovative technologies in the management of your own home.

For example, at one time, in 2007, we were one of the 3 companies in the world that implemented the idea of ​​controlling the “Smart Home” from a computer interface based on the then modern Windows Vista Media Center using the usual TV remote control, looking at its screen (iMC software).

Already in 2008, our software worked on the then revolutionary Apple iPhone smartphone.

And in 2010 the iMC software was launched as a widget on SmartTV and did not need anything but a TV and its remote control.

Each time we demonstrated these iconic innovations at SMART House exhibitions where they were of great interest among end users and integrators, foreign ideasniffers. Other companies are now developing iMC product ideas in their own products.
