Norden Communication to manufacture thermal cameras for C-DAC

Norden Communication announced it has tied up with Centre for Development and Advanced Computing (C-DAC) to develop AI-based general purpose thermal cameras, which are for security purposes and other industrial applications.

C-DAC is a R&D (research & development) organisation under the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY).

UK based Norden Communication is a manufacturing company. Its reliable and tested products cater to different environments, including Telecommunications, Surveillance Systems and Public Address Systems. Company product line includes Norden Cabling System, Norden surveillance System, Norden Public Address systems, Norden Access Control Systems and Norden UPS Systems.

Norden Communication has entered into an exclusive partnership based on Transfer of Technology (ToT) for the development of 'General Purpose Thermal Camera'.

“This collaboration stands as an opportunity to advance in surveillance technology and demonstrates unwavering dedication to national security as a part of the Make-in-India initiative,” said Prashant Oberoi, Director - India and SAARC of Norden Communication.

Norden, which specialises in the manufacture and distribution of Extra-Low Voltage (ELV) solutions, aligns with the vision of C-DAC in the realm of surveillance technology.

The company stands as a manufacturer of innovative products embedded with smart technology designed for efficient security management. As a Transfer of Technology (TOT) partner, Norden commits to the production, marketing, sale, and implementation of the General-Purpose thermal camera in National Highway, Defense and Oil and Gas sectors. About 30% of production is expected under this agreement in this sector.

The General-Purpose Thermal Camera, powered by artificial intelligence, is a smart camera tailored for industrial applications. It ensures data accuracy in diverse light and weather conditions, making it a versatile solution for various sectors such as national highways, border areas, forests, solar farms, and more.

Notably, these thermal cameras excel in penetrating snow, thanks to its capability to detect infrared radiation, enabling the capture of heat signatures even in cold and snowy environments.

Norden Communication's partnership with C-DAC signifies a remarkable step forward in the production of thermal cameras, underscoring the commitment to national security.
