VS-PLUS is a control method for road intersection controlled by traffic lights. The traffic lights are connected to a controller where VS-PLUS runs as a separate process.The software is best suited for traffic-actuated control of an intersection. In order to detect the traffic, a sufficient number of detectors must be connected to the controller. The detector signals are typically scanned 10 times per second.The software is suited as well for implementing public transport priority systems.VS-PLUS does not provide a programming environment but allows the traffic engineer to parametrize the control. It uses an abstraction model for the necessary parameters such as "desired priority" that can be set as a parameter. VS-PLUS supports the North American NEMA software standard for intersection control.Due to the parametrization capabilities the software can communicate with central traffic computers and implement their current strategy by parameter changes. This enables re-coordination of a Green Wave still keeping the local optimizations.During development and test of the parameters, the control can be simulated on a PC using a microscopic traffic simulator (as TransModeler, VISSIM, AIMSUN, or Paramics).

VR Class Dr13 (before 1 January 1976 called Hr13) was a heavy diesel locomotive used by VR Group. The Dr13 was designed by the French company Alstom. The class consisted of 54 locomotives, of which the first two were built by Alstom’s factory in Belfort, France and were shipped to Finland in 1962, while the rest were built in Tampere at the factories of Lokomo (odd numbers) and Valmet (even numbers). The first Dr13 series locomotive came to Finland on 24 October 1962.

The VR Class Hr11 was the first class of diesel locomotives used by Valtionrautatiet (Finnish State Railways). Only five units were built, all delivered by Valmet in 1955. The Maybach diesel engines used in the locomotives proved highly unreliable, resulting in a complete overhaul of the engine-transmission system in 1956–58, but this did not solve all of the reliability problems. The Hr11 series was withdrawn from service in 1972.

VRI Fencing Club located in Melbourne, Victoria is an Australian fencing club distinguished as being the only club in any Olympic sport to have continuously produced athletes for every Olympiad between 1952 and 2008.The Club was founded a week after the International Olympic Committee awarded Melbourne the 15th Olympiad on 28 April 1949. Formed by employees of the Victorian Railways, VRI Fencing Club was funded, equipped and accommodated under the auspice of the Victorian Railways Institute, an organisation dedicated to providing self-learning, social and sport opportunities for railway employees. In addition to encouraging public participation in the sport of fencing, the club sought to train and develop competitive athletes in three weapons to represent Australia at the Melbourne 1956 Summer Olympics.The club produced five athletes for the Melbourne Olympiad. Overall it has produced 35 athletes for 15 consecutive Olympiads, including most recently, three athletes for the Beijing 2008 Summer Olympics. VRI Fencing Club produced a representative Australian athlete for every Olympiad since Australia first competed in fencing at Helsinki in 1952 up to Beijing in 2008. Overall the club has produced 48 per cent of Australia’s total number of Olympic fencers.

The locomotives had 2 axles, they were the wet-steam type, and used a slip-Walschaert valve gear. Production numbers and years were 7268/1909 and 7858/1910. The fortress was in Finnish hands when Finland became independent.The fortress was not needed after the Treaty of Tartu in 1920. It was therefore decided to cancel the order for the locomotives. But this was not possible so it was decided to use the locomotives in the dismantling of the fortress. In 1919, the second locomotive, 7858/1910, was sold to as an industrial locomotive. The first locomotive continued to work dismantling the fort until 1922 when it was acquired by a building company in Hanko. After this the locomotive was sold to Enqvist Ltd Ab, Tampere who scrapped it in 1951.The second locomotive was purchased by the VR Kuopio depot and given the running number 68. The locomotive was still running in the 1960s. The locomotive was used until 1962 and finally withdrawn in 1967. In the early 1980s it was restored externally and placed in the Kuopio locomotive shed. It was discovered in 1986 by Savo Steam Transport Museum. Unfortunately, the museum project floundered and the locomotive was plinthed outside a restaurant.In 2008 it was decided to restore the locomotive. On 24 March 2009, the locomotive was moved to Hyvinkää workshop, where ultrasound measurements were taken. The final restoration was carried out by ABB Services and the Jokioinen Museum Railway, where the locomotive arrived on 8 May 2009. The locomotive was presented to the public on 17 June 2010.

VR photography, or virtual reality photography, is the interactive viewing of wide-angle panoramic photographs, generally encompassing a 360-degree circle or a spherical view.VR photography is the art of capturing or creating a complete scene as a single image, as viewed when rotating about a single central position. Normally created by stitching together a number of photographs taken in a multi-row 360-degree rotation or using an omnidirectional camera, the complete virtual reality image can also be a totally computer-generated effect, or a composite of photography and computer generated objects. The history of VR photography is human-computer interaction in which a real or imaginary environment is simulated and users interact with and manipulate that world.QuickTime VR (QTVR) was the original interactive panorama format, with Apple's Quicktime software acting as the viewer. Recent versions of Microsoft Windows also provide built-in support via the .pano file extension. There are also a growing number of different players and plug-ins. Many of these are based on Flash, but some use Java, SilverLight, custom programming using OpenGL and WebGL, and even JavaScript. Most of the players can be seen in the Panorama Player Comparisons project.VR photography can also be used for displaying objects in 360 (360 photography, commonly referred to as 360 Object VR, 360 product photography, 360 product images and 360 product views). These are created by capturing a series of images as the object rotates over a 360 rotation (camera stays in a fixed position). The output will be a series of individual images (typically JPG format) that can then be composed into an interactive 360 view using HTML5, JavaScript and Flash. 360 Object VR is commonly used in ecommerce.

The Sm2 is a class of electric multiple units in use by the VR Group in commuter traffic in the Helsinki area. 50 Sm2 units were built between 1975 and 1981 by Valmet airplane factory in Tampere. The electric systems were built by Strömberg in Pitäjänmäki, Helsinki. The Sm2 units have undergone a complete renovation in the 2000s, during which the trains were essentially rebuilt. Only the bodywork and the technics remained mostly untouched. Many of the changes are visible to the passengers, including a different type of seat, modern toilets and a new livery.To the outside the most significant difference in the appearance of Sm1 and Sm2 units are the corrugations designed to support the structure on the sides of the Sm1 unit. They don't exist in the more modern Sm2. Sm2 units can be coupled together with Sm1 units (but not with Sm4 or Sm5 units), forming trains of at most six units (12 cars), but the length of the commuter train platforms limits the maximum length to five units in commercial traffic. Naturally, the full length trains can be seen in the depot traffic in the mornings and evenings.Like the Sm1, each Sm2 unit consists of two cars: the Sm2 is actually the motored carriage of the multiple unit, while the other car, the driving trailer, is a part of the Eioc class. The train can be driven from both ends.The maximum speed of the train is 120 km/h (75 mph). The bodywork is made of aluminium, as opposed to steel in Sm1. The bogies are better and the Sm2 units have air suspension instead of steel suspension. The Sm2 units are numbered between 6051/6251 and 6100/6300 (the number of Sm2 unit / the Eioc carriage)

The train had 80 no-smoking seats and had the driver selling tickets, which was unusual for Finnish conditions. During testing, it was run under the nomenclature KOEMV 9991 (from the Finnish koemoottorivaunu, experimental multiple unit), transporting Finnish President Martti Ahtisaari in Savonia in May 1994.First accounts were positive, citing that the ride was silent and comfortable. During the summer of 1995 the Dm10 was branded Ilja Repin Express. It was used as an art train, bringing customers to an exhibition of Repin's art at Retretti Art Centre from Punkaharju and Savonlinna. It was also driven on select Saturdays to Rantasalmi.The unit was finally used in regular service for only three years, 1994 to 1997, mostly in regional traffic in Eastern Finland before being withdrawn. The train had problems with its brakes and VR expected it to be cheaper to buy new DMUs instead of converting old carriages for an expected service time of only 15 years. The train was scrapped in 2006 by Kuusakoski Oy.The nickname of the Dm10 is Junttilan Salama (Finnish for "Redneck land lightning").

The Sm4 electric multiple unit (EMU) is a low-floor train used by the VR Group in Helsinki commuter rail services. The initial order was for ten EMUs with the first unit entering service in 1999. Another 20 units were ordered in 2002 and the deliveries were completed in 2005. The Spanish company CAF was contracted to manufacture the units.

The VR classes Eit, Eip and Ein (and many others), better known as blue carriages due to their colour, are passenger cars built between 1961 and 1985 for long-distance passenger travel in Finland. They are operated by VR Group and are slowly phased out in favour of InterCity trains.

The VRC Stakes day (also known as the Emirates Stakes day), is the final day of the Melbourne Spring Racing Carnival at Flemington Racecourse. Stakes Day is held on the Saturday directly following Melbourne Cup Day (the first Tuesday in November). The 'Stakes' were first run in 1881 as the Coburg Stakes. In 2016 the LKS Mackinnon Stakes was moved from the VRC Victoria Derby day and renamed to the Emirate Stakes. The original "Stakes" were in turn moved to the first Day of the carnival and renamed as the Longines Mile.Stakes Day is also known as Family Day of the Melbourne Spring Racing Carnival, with extra events aimed at children and families scheduled throughout the day. A popular event introduced from 2004 is the Emirates Kids' Fashions on the Field, giving youngsters the opportunities to impress at the track alongside their adult counterparts. Stakes Day is one of the fastest growing events on the Australian Racing Calendar, and is popular with crowds because of its relaxed and casual atmosphere.Emirates Stakes Day features a nine race card, of which five are group races. The feature race of the day is the Group 1 Emirates Stakes, a WFA run over 2000 metres. The 1200m Darley Classic (won by Black Caviar in 2010 and 2011) is also held on this day.

Vagono-remonten zavod Karlovo (Bulgarian: Вагоно-ремонтен завод Карлово - Wagon Repair Plant Karlovo), mostly known as VRZ Karlovo, PLC. (Bulgarian: ВРЗ Карлово АД), was established in 1964 in Karlovo with principal business activities in repairs of railway cars and production of spare parts.Since 2007 the focus of the company was shifted on design, development and manufacturing of a railway cars for the Bulgarian and European markets - cars type Sgnss (container wagon), Zas/Zaes/Zacns (tank wagons for light and heavy petroleum products, acids), Eaos/Eanos (open wagons for bulk goods), etc. In present days, the company's activity includes railway cars repairing and manufacturing services, railway equipment, spare parts production, assemblies and units for the rolling stock.

Before 1942 VR Class Tr1s originally had the class name was R1. They were nicknamed “Risto”, after the Finnish President Risto Ryti. They were a heavy freight locomotive. They were numbered 1030–1096.67 locomotives were built between 1940–57 by Tampella, Lokomo and Arnold Jung Lokomotivfabrik GmbH, Jungenthal of Germany. The "Risto" is a product of the same era as the express train locomotive Ukko-Pekka, and they share a similar appearance. Tr1 1096 was the last steam locomotive manufactured for VR in 1957. TR1 locomotives were withdrawn during the 1970s, with the last being withdrawn in 1975.

The Sm2 is a class of electric multiple units in use by the VR Group in commuter traffic in the Helsinki area. 50 Sm2 units were built between 1975 and 1981 by Valmet airplane factory in Tampere. The electric systems were built by Strömberg in Pitäjänmäki, Helsinki. The Sm2 units have undergone a complete renovation in the 2000s, during which the trains were essentially rebuilt. Only the bodywork and the technics remained mostly untouched.

Serine/threonine-protein kinase VRK1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the VRK1 gene.This gene encodes a member of the vaccinia-related kinase (VRK) family of serine/threonine protein kinases. This gene is widely expressed in human tissues and has increased expression in actively dividing cells, such as those in testis, thymus, fetal liver, and carcinomas. Its protein localizes to the nucleus and has been shown to promote the stability and nuclear accumulation of a transcriptionally active p53 molecule and, in vitro, to phosphorylate Thr18 of p53 and reduce p53 ubiquitination. This gene, therefore, may regulate cell proliferation. This protein also phosphorylates histone, casein, and the transcription factors ATF2 (activating transcription factor 2) and c-JUN.

VR photography, or virtual reality photography, is the interactive viewing of wide-angle panoramic photographs, generally encompassing a 360-degree circle or a spherical view.VR photography is the art of capturing or creating a complete scene as a single image, as viewed when rotating about a single central position.

The VS-50 is a circular plastic cased anti-personnel blast mine, formerly manufactured by the now-defunct Valsella Meccanotecnica SpA, an Italian high-tech defence industry specialized in area denial systems which was also the manufacturer of the Valmara 69 and one of the first industries in the world to implement plastic construction for landmines. The design is similar to the TS-50 and VS-MK2 mine. It is blast resistant and can be used in a minimum metal configuration.

VR Class Dr13 (before 1 January 1976 called Hr13) was a heavy diesel locomotive used by VR Group. The Dr13 was designed by the French company Alstom. The class consisted of 54 locomotives, of which the first two were built by Alstom’s factory in Belfort, France and were shipped to Finland in 1962, while the rest were built in Tampere at the factories of Lokomo (odd numbers) and Valmet (even numbers). The first Dr13 series locomotive came to Finland on 24 October 1962. The Dr13 series was introduced between 1962–1963, and the last units were withdrawn by June 2000.The Dr13 has been the most powerful and the fastest diesel locomotive in VR Group service. It was purchased to complement the VR Class Dr12 locomotives: Dr12 had a heavier axle load and less power. The Dr12 was therefore restricted to use on lines that have been laid for heavier axle loads. Dr13 had a similar engine to the medium-weight Dv12, the Tampella manufactured MGO V16 BSHR / BHSR, but the Dr13 had two of them, each driving its own generator. The 2 locomotives produced in France used engines manufactured by SACM. Dr13 fleet was initially operated in Eastern Finland on freight and passenger rail services, and stationed in Kouvola. As the electrified rail network in Eastern Finland expanded, Dr13 equipment began to be used in Western Finland on unelectrified sections of track.Instead of the conventional electric motor arrangement, one motor per axle, the locomotive had a somewhat unconventional motor arrangement: two large electric motors, one for each bogie, placed on top of the bogies driving the three axles via an external gearbox. The class initially had a lot of teething problems affecting the battery, radiator and power train. The original French design could not withstand the severe Finnish climate. For instance, hoods had to be fitted in Finland to the air intakes and ventilation grilles on the roof to prevent snow from entering the engines. The locomotive weight was much higher than specified and the driving characteristics were not particularly good. Accordingly, careless driving could result in a bumpy ride on poor sections of track (hence the nickname of "Hyppyheikki" or "Jumping Heikki"). Not all the problems were solved, but this did not detract from the usefulness of the class in trains that needed a lot of power. The last use of the class was pulling trains on the unelectrified line between Tampere and Turku. When the last Dr13s were withdrawn in June 2000, the class had completed almost 40 years service, and the youngest locomotives were 35 years old. Two locomotives of the class were preserved: No. 2349 for the Finnish Railway Museum and No. 2343.There were several nicknames for the Dr13 including “Alstom" and several based on Alstom: "Alstikka", "Alsti", "Alspommi" and "Ranskatar”(=Frenchwoman). Also, nicknames "Hyppyheikki" (= "Jumping Heikki"), "Kymen Huru", "Marinella", “Myymäläauto” (="Mobile shop") and "Nakkiputka" (=Sausage kiosk) were used. The last two referred to the characteristic looks of the windscreens. When ready for delivery into Finland in Belfort, France, Dr13 No. 2302 was named “Wäinämöinen” by the wife of the President of Finland Mrs Sylvi Kekkonen.
