Rudolf Zubovics’s diploma work has been selected by the Hungarian Paralympic Committee
Date: 2022.10.12
In the spring semester of 2022, the Hungarian Paralympic Committee launched a call for entries for 3rd year Object Design BA students for designing the Paralympic Torch prize.
Rudolf Zubovics’s diploma work was selected as the winner of the competition. His supervisor was Zoltán Tóth.
The completed Paralympic Torch prize was presented to the Hungarian Sports Journalist Journalists' Association at the gala celebrating the 25th anniversary of the Committee’s establishment.
“The prize object was designed to provide a plastic representation of support. The basic shape stands for the dynamism and stability of the movement, while the sphere on the top represents the goal set. The pillars supporting and holding the sphere up high symbolise the supporting organisations or individuals that feed the Paralympic flame”, said Rudolf.

A stunning video illustrating the evolution of starspots over time on the surface of red giant XX Trianguli (XX Tri) has been produced by data scientists Ádám Radványi and Viktor Varga of the Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design (MOME). Based on 16 years of observations, researchers from the Leibniz Institute for Astrophysics Potsdam (AIP) and the Astronomy Institute of the HUN-REN Research Centre for Astronomy and Earth Sciences reconstructed the changes in the cooler regions of the star’s surface, known as starspots. The MOME team translated these findings into an engaging data visualisation animation, making this complex phenomenon accessible to a broader audience.
What therapeutic effect could a beautiful virtual walk through nature or immersive gardening have? This is one of the questions explored by the Zenctuary VR+ project, led by Ágnes Karolina Bakk PhD within the FutureCare Lab at MOME, which has secured nearly 1 million euros in funding through the HU-rizont grant programme of the National Research, Development, and Innovation Office. Developed for healthcare facilities, this virtual natural environment aims to serve both rehabilitative and diagnostic purposes, improving patient care and the quality of life for the elderly, promoting recovery, and reducing the workload of healthcare professionals.
“It is a great privilege to continue my work as Head of the MOME Doctoral School, an institution synonymous with innovation, creativity, and excellence,” said Professor Ábel Szalontai upon accepting his appointment to lead the Doctoral School until 31 December 2025.
