The guys got acquainted with the history of aerial photography, the first aerial photographs, stereo effect, compared the shooting quality of 1917, 1944 and 2000. Students in practice were able to try out various methods for obtaining a stereo effect. The guys were fascinated by old photos when working with stereoscopes, using a pair of pictures they created a three-dimensional image of the relief, tried on polarizing glasses, tried to see the image in stereo pictures. Having learned that drones are not only a toy, but serious devices for obtaining information about the earth’s surface, the guys plotted an aerial survey route, understood the longitudinal and transverse overlap of the images, and determined the shooting scale on the map.

The guys were introduced to the basics of programming microprocessors using the example of 'farmdot' - a joint project of the Omsk State Automobile University and an industrial partner - the company Siberian Klondike - to create a robotic complex 'greenhouse robot', the work was done on remote access. Also, to strengthen the guys' knowledge of the basics of electronics, a practical lesson was held on the application of the acquired competencies.
