Various underwater technologies have been developed for tracking and surveillance of marine ecosystem based on fundamental physical principles such as optical, acoustical and RF. It has been realized that a technical integration of various research thrust areas is an essential requirement to establish a highly product-oriented approach to develop underwater devices. Centre of Excellence in Underwater Robotics and Communication is was established on 30 Sept. 2022 to focus on six major thrust areas through which various research verticals of ocean engineering and technology are explored.
