Ruselectronics may become a direct competitor to Intel and Samsung

The Russian subdivision Ruselectronics, which is part of the Rostec Corporation, is gradually gaining ground in the market. Previously, only the military knew about the developments and products of the enterprise. But under the influence of American and European sanctions, starting in 2016, the company took up the IT segment very strongly. The beginning of 2022 showed that there are serious development prospects in this direction.

 

16-nuclear Elbrus-16C - the first call for competitors

 

The most significant event that has taken place in the IT market is the release of the new Elbrus-16C processors based on the e2k-v6 architecture. Users of social networks from different parts of the world have already ridiculed Russian technologists. As tests have shown, the new processor is 10 times inferior in performance to the ancient Intel Core i7-2600 crystal. There is only one "but". There aren't many offerings on the market that can compete with the 2011 flagship.

Apparently, this is still a trial development. But they will definitely develop into something new and unpredictable for the world market. As they say, this is the beginning of a big end (for AMD and Intel). It is enough to trace the 5-year development of the Russian import-substitution industry. It is quite realistic that Russia will win in the IT sector as well.

 

MicroOLED display for AR/VR devices

 

The organic electroluminescent light-emitting diode (OLED) display could push Korean and Japanese brands into the market. In particular, Samsung, LG and Sony. The flagships of the market are still far away. But the prerequisites for this are unconditional. Given the immersion of the whole world into the metaverse, this is the right direction for development in the IT direction.

Electronics for AR/VR displays is built on Micron chips (USA). But knowing the love of Americans for the application of sanctions, it is easy to guess that Russian technologists are actively developing in this direction.

 

What consequences can be expected from Rostec

 

It is easy to guess that the development in IT will create very favorable conditions for Russia in the world market. Given the friendship with China, there will obviously be no problems in the components. Therefore, the consequences are already visible very well:

 

• A decrease in demand for the products of foreign companies means the loss of a sales market.
• Increasing Russia's GDP through trade and creating new jobs.
• Direct competition in the countries of the "third world" for the leaders of the IT market.

It turns out that sanctions - this is an excellent tool for raising the economy of the country against which they are directed. The technological flywheel is already untwisted. It is unlikely that the lifting of sanctions will lead to a halt in production. In the next couple of years, we will certainly see interesting Russian IT solutions on the market at an attractive price.
