Locally based Prama India, a provider of video security solutions, announced on Friday that it has teamed up with the IT Ministry’s Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC) to conduct research, develop, and innovate thermal camera technology.
C-DAC and Prama India have inked a technology transfer (ToT) agreement.
The company is working to turn India into a worldwide hub for video security device manufacture and exports by operating a state-of-the-art manufacturing plant close to Mumbai.
The “Digital India FutureLABS” were introduced last week at IIIT-Delhi by Rajeev Chandrasekhar, the minister of state for electronics and IT.
Three indigenous innovations were given to 12 industries during the event: a fleet management system, a thermal camera, and a CMOS camera. The technologies were created and developed by C-DAC, Thiruvananthapuram as part of the MeitY “InTranSE” program.
A built-in data processing unit (DPU) allows the thermal smart camera to perform a variety of AI-based analytics. The indigenous technology is intended for use in several fields, such as smart cities, industry, health, and defense.
At Prama India, we are dedicated to realizing the vision of “Artmanirbhar Bharat” in order to attain “Surakshit Bharat.” A firm representative stated, “We hope that our technology partnership with C-DAC will bolster the cause of R&D and product innovation.”
The spokesman continued, “This technology collaboration will help us in developing innovative solutions as per the requirements of end-users.”
In accordance with the terms of the technology transfer agreement with C-DAC, Thiruvananthapuram, Prama India is authorized to produce, market, and provide support for general purpose thermal cameras in India.
