Guwahati: The Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati has recently signed an MoU with Tata Elxsi, a leading global technology services provider for the automotive and Transportation industry, to jointly work on developing and commercialising state-of-the-art solutions for the electric mobility market.
The collaboration will bring together researchers and experts for advanced research in the fields of Material Science, Digital Twins and Deep Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning techniques.
Prof. Parameswar K. Iyer, Officiating Director at IIT Guwahati, said electric vehicles are being increasingly considered the solution to carbon emissions from the transportation sector and there is an essential need to create more future-ready solutions in the EV automotive and transportation industry. The shared knowledge between IIT Guwahati researchers and Tata Elxsi team will help in building a research ecosystem in this field.
One key area of work under this collaboration will be the digital analysis of electrical signature data for traction motors which underpins EV mobility across segments including Automotive and Rail. The solution will provide deep insights for proactive fault prediction, maintenance schedule formulation, and traceability for design and manufacturing defects.
Manoj Raghavan, CEO and MD at Tata Elxsi, said this collaboration will bring together the best minds to envisage and develop future-looking solutions for the fast-evolving space of electric mobility.
