Located in St. Petersburg, it specializes in software and hardware development, and in robotics and technical cybernetics.

Special design bureau for technical cybernetics  was formed on the base of Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University on January 29, 1968. In June 1981, the bureau was transformed into the RTC.

RTC participated in the development of the soft landing control system for the spacecraft Soyuz and the robotic probe Luna 16. In 1986–1987, the institute created mobile robots for radiation reconnaissance and liquidation of Chernobyl accident consequences. In the early 1990s the institute participated in the development of the manipulator for the spacecraft Buran.

Soft landing
A soft landing is any type of aircraft, rocket or spacecraft landing that does not result in significant damage to or destruction of the vehicle or its payload, as opposed to a hard landing. The average vertical speed of a soft landing (on Earth) should be about 2 meters (6.6 ft) per second or less.

A soft landing can be achieved by

Parachute—often this is into water.

Vertical rocket power using retrorockets, often referred to as VTVL (vertical landing referred to as VTOL, is usually for aircraft landing in a level attitude, rather than rockets) — first achieved on a suborbital trajectory by Bell Rocket Belt and on an orbital trajectory by the Surveyor 1.

Horizontal landing, most aircraft and some spacecraft, such as the Space Shuttle, land this way accompanied with a parachute.

Being caught in midair, as done with Corona spy satellites and followed by some other form of landing.

Reducing landing speed by impact with the body's surface, known as lithobraking.
21st Primetime Emmy Awards
The 21st Emmy Awards—also known since 1974 as the 21st Primetime Emmy Awards—were handed out on June 8, 1969.  The ceremony was co-hosted by Bill Cosby and Merv Griffin.

The top shows of the night were Get Smart, which won Outstanding Comedy Series for the second consecutive year, and Outstanding Dramatic Series winner NET Playhouse. NET Playhouse, from the PBS predecessor National Educational Television Network, became the first show outside the Big Three television networks to win a top series award.

Due to several categories being combined for the ceremony, no show received more than two major wins. The most drastic rule change was that all shows that had aired more than two seasons were ineligible. The cause of this change was due to the rise in repeat winners in recent years. There was no winner in the category of Outstanding Single Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role, because the judges felt that none of the nominees were worthy of an award.

Eckert projection
The Eckert projections are six pseudocylindrical map projections devised by Max Eckert-Greifendorff, who presented them in 1906. The latitudes are parallel lines in all six projections. The projections come in pairs; in the odd-numbered projections, the latitudes are equally spaced, while their even-numbered counterparts are equal-area.

The three pairs are distinguished by the shapes of the meridians. Eckert I and Eckert II have rectilinear (straight-line) meridians, meeting at the equator at an angle. In Eckert III and Eckert IV, meridians are elliptical, while in Eckert V and Eckert VI, they are sinusoidal.

Eckert VI projection
The Eckert VI projection is an equal-area pseudocylindrical map projection. The length of polar line is half that of the equator, and lines of longitude are sinusoids. It was first described by Max Eckert in 1906 as one of a series of three pairs of pseudocylindrical projections. In each pair, the meridians have the same shape, and the odd-numbered projection has equally spaced parallels, whereas the even-numbered projection has parallels spaced to preserve area. The pair to Eckert VI is the Eckert V projection.
