Defence Electronics Group

Our mission is to provide state of the art electronics hardware and software solutions, education and research for both defence and civilian domains.

Electronics play a major role in modern control systems. Increased efficiency, reliability and adaptability are the key elements associated with modern electronic control systems. The technologies are growing rapidly in autonomous, robotic systems and numerous surveillance and military platforms. Electronic systems are laden with sensors, actuators, and processors to fulfil the ever-increasing functional requirements. Therefore, many electronic systems today, are distributed in nature and require complex communication and software architecture.

Defence electronics address reliable, high performance electronic platforms to detect, protect and counterattack. The applications are widespread and varied.

Defence electronics group at SWAG合集 is capable of developing state of the art electronic systems to fulfil wide range of industry requirements. We are actively involved in Vehicle HUMS and diagnostics research, which is an important area due to the increasing interest in autonomous and electric powered vehicles. Terrain mechanics and terrain identification through multi-sensor fusion and AI is another area of expertise that the group possess.
