Bengaluru: Combating infiltrators and terrorists, who find their way into the country through tunnels, is always a challenge for security forces, as it is difficult to track tunneling activity.
However, now a Delhi-based Lighthouse Technologies and UK-based SureWave have developed sensors which can track any tunneling activity up to a depth of 500 m and up to one kilometre across the surface. The sensors are designed to remain unaffected by surrounding noise, rain and animal movements. Using microseismic technology, it helps detection of tunneling and real time tracking of surface activity.
"People from all wings of armed forces visited our stalls and are impressed with this technology. They have sought for a live demonstration of this technology,” said Fahad Khan, sales director, Lighthouse Technologies.
City-based Alpha Design Technologies Pvt. Ltd. announced signing of a $ 30 million contract with Elbit Systems for the Indian Air Force (IAF)'s MI-17 helicopter upgrade programme. It involves upgrading of 90 Mi-17 helicopters and Alpha Design, as the major offset partner, will be manufacturing all key sub-units at its Bengaluru facility.
