Mr V S Mahalingam Director Centre for Artificial Intelligence and Robotics DRDO Complex C V Raman Nagar Bangalore 560 093 Shri VS Mahalingam joined DRDO after obtaining his Bachelor’s degree in Engineering in the year 1973 from the College of Engineering, Guindy, affiliated to Madras University. He had advanced training in Software Engineering at Indus Tech, Pittsburgh, USA, and obtained his master degree from Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur. He has made outstanding contributions in the development of equipments like Multiplexer for Adaptive Delta Modulation (ADM) coded signals, FDM signal encryptor (named Broad Band Caddis), Radio Regenerator Unit, Digital Trunk Unit, Shelterised Command Post for PINAKA Weapon system, C3I system - Artillery Combat Command and Control System and Command Information Decision support System that have found widespread usage amongst services. He has published more than 12 papers in various International and National forum. He is one of the members of team which received the Agni Award for Excellence in Self Reliance in the year 2003. He received the Scientist of the Year Award in 2003. Mobile Robotics - A DRDO Perspective Mobile Robots are set to play a very major role in the realization of future battlefield platforms including unmanned /autonomous air / ground /under water vehicles. A classical application of unmanned ground vehicles has been the disposal of hazardous explosives. In the military context, the new generation of fast, agile mobile robots is expected to perform such hazardous tasks as well as surveillance, reconnaissance, logistics support and even enemy attack. These modern new generation robots are required to be built with sophisticated on board “intelligence” to efficiently perform the above tasks. The intelligence component comprises of an integrated GPS, Image /video processing, Laser ranging etc and advanced algorithms embedded into an onboard computer. A number of DRDO labs are working on different classes of tracked, wheeled under water and unmanned/autonomous vehicles.
