NEW DELHI: Taking ahead the purpose of increasing the profile of indigenously developed expertise, the Indian Navy is ready to induct 118 such applied sciences and merchandise quickly. The announcement of this can be executed in the course of the 2nd Edition of the Indian Navy’s Naval Innovation and Indigenisation (NIIO) Seminar – ‘Swavlamban 2023’ scheduled to be performed on 04 – 05 Oct 2023.
The Navy on Monday mentioned that after an in depth examination, 113 winners beneath the Defence India Start-up Challenge (DISC) 7 SPRINT and 5 winners within the DISC 7 SPRINT-PRIME class had been declared.
Grants as much as 1.5 crore and as much as 10 crore respectively can be offered to every class, and the event of prototypes is being progressed by all of the winners, Navy added.
The conclusion of over 100 developmental agreements between Innovations for Defence Excellence (iDEX) and trade was achieved, with energetic engagement of the Indian Navy, iDEX and start-ups/ MSMEs.
This collaborative mission is called SPRINT Supporting Pole-Vaulting in R&D by Innovations for Defence Excellence (iDEX), NIIO and Technology Development Acceleration Cell (TDAC).
Niche applied sciences are being progressed throughout the spectrum, together with blue-green lasers for underwater functions; Autonomous weaponised swarms and Underwater swarm drones; a number of hearth combating aids; introduction of Artificial Intelligence (Al) for numerous makes use of and the event of an ultra-endurance small drone for maritime missions.
It was in the course of the first version of the Swalamban seminar, held in July 2022, Prime Minister launched the 75 challenges for the start-ups/ MSMEs as part of the ‘SPRINT’ initiative. During the seminar, it’s proposed to showcase these 75 prototypes, together with a stay demo of some promising applied sciences.
The ‘SPRINT Challenges’, are geared toward giving a lift to the utilization of indigenous expertise within the Indian Navy, and the Navy is dedicated to creating at the very least 75 applied sciences/ merchandise as a part of the ‘Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav’.
SPRINT is a collaborative initiative being undertaken together with the Defence Innovation Organisation (DIO) and stands for Supporting Pole-Vaulting in R&D by Innovations for Defence Excellence (iDEX), NIIO and Technology Development Acceleration Cell (TDAC). This initiative has acquired an amazing response with 1106 proposals.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi unveiled ‘SPRINT Challenges’, geared toward giving a lift to the utilization of indigenous expertise within the Indian Navy. Aiming to attain self-reliance in defence and as a part of ‘Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav’, NIIO, together with the Defence Innovation Organisation (DIO), aimed to induct at the very least 75 new indigenous applied sciences/merchandise into the Indian Navy.
Few Technologies/merchandise being inducted:
1. Carbon Nano Tubes/Aerogel-based materials with a number of usages together with camouflage in opposition to IR cameras.
2. Portable RCS Measuring Device able to impartial operation and enabling measures in opposition to anti-missile defence
3. Monolithic lens offering unparalleled magnification
4. AI-based barrel crawling bot for injury prognosis & well being monitoring of gun barrels, rocket launchers and torpedo tubes
