To develop emerging technologies related to artificial intelligence, quantum computing and robotics, the Indian Navy inked a pact with premier DPSU Bharat Electronics Limited on Tuesday. To jointly work on developing new technologies, the memorandum of understanding (MOU) provides for the setting up of a Technology Incubation Forum (TIF).
“The Technology Incubation Forum reflects the joint vision of the Indian Navy and Bharat Electronics Limited towards innovative and creative thinking and fostering the development of emerging technologies”, said the defence ministry.
