13-year-old Nikita Arkhipov won the International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN". A young physicist from Novocherkassk figured out how to remotely read meter readings.

He became one of the 14 winners. In total, more than 230 schoolchildren participated in the engineering solutions competition.

Nikita Arkhipov: "My supervisor and I wondered what to do for those people who already have an old pulse meter that will have to be replaced if they want a smart device. What to do in order not to replace, how to optimize and upgrade this meter."

Vladimir Mozgovoy, Head of the Robo Technical Creativity Center. Grade: "The essence of the device is as follows: you can install a special sensor on any meter that will record meter readings and, bypassing intermediaries, send readings to the offices of electricity suppliers in order to automatically calculate payments, view the balance, and make life easier for people. Large companies are also puzzled by the topic of remote recording of instrument readings for centralized data processing. Its development has a very great potential."

The jury of the competition highly appreciated the idea and execution. Nikita and his friends are currently perfecting the system. The 13-year-old engineer received a ticket to the camp and valuable prizes.
