Aerospace Electronics and Systems Division involve in research and development in five major disciplines of Civil Aircraft Avionics and Embedded systems, Systems Engineering, Software Engineering, Micro Air Vehicles (Autopilot hardware & Vision System Technologies) and Active Noise Control system design. The prime objective of the division is to address the civil aircraft activities for CSIR and national programs in particular and general aviation, regional class of civil aircraft in general. Division’s expertise are in Avionics Architectures, Systems and Software Engineering, Formal Methods, Active Noise Control, IMA based open architecture systems, Digital Signal Processing, Aircraft Fight Data Analysis System, Technologies for MAV like Vision Aided Navigation and Embedded 9DoF MEMS digital Sensor based Autopilot System.
Division has developed Avionics Suite for 2 Seater Hansa, 19 Seater Saras and in process of designing Cockpit Display System for 60 to 90 seater transport aircraft. Apart from civil aircraft activities, division is also actively contributing in strategic sector avionics technologies development.
