IIT Madras, DRDO Develop Sensor Technology for Underwater Communications

IIT Madras and DRDO have developed cutting-edge sensor technology for underwater communications. The Indigenous technology will enable the fabrication of devices at a relatively lower cost.

The indigenous development of this technology enables the nation to fabricate the devices at a relatively lower cost than the internationally-available foundries where the cost of fabrication is high and the number of foundries is also limited, the IIT Madras said in a statement on Tuesday (9 May).The 'Piezoelectric MEMS technology' is required to develop high-performance thin films and convert 'piezo thin film' into state-of-the-art futuristic naval sensors and devices for underwater applications.

The Piezo Thin Films are one of the vital components of piezo MEMS devices.
