“Vidyut Rakshak” unveiled by the Indian Army for better monitoring and control of generators.
“Vidyut Rakshak” has been developed by the Army Design Bureau (ADB).
On June 10, it was launched by Lt Gen Upendra Dwivedi, Vice Chief of the Army Staff (VCOAS).
‘Vidyut Rakshak’ is an Internet of Things-enabled system designed to monitor, protect and control generators.
This innovation reflects the Indian Army’s dedication towards adopting advanced technologies for operational efficiency.
This system will apply to all generators existing in the Indian Army, irrespective of their type, make, rating or age.
Moreover, it will also predict and prevent errors, and automate manual operations with a user-friendly interface, thereby saving manpower.
An MoU for innovation production was signed during Aero India 2023 by the Indian Army and the Foundation for Innovation and Technology Transfer (FITT), IIT Delhi.
Vidyut Rakshak is the first innovation launched under this MoU.
