ISRO's space technology transfer for everyday uses : Innovations to life

166 technologies created for space missions by the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) that can be transferred to industries for non-space applications have been identified by the Indian National Space Promotion and Authorization Centre (IN-SPACe).

It is anticipated that the move will improve everyday lives by helping a number of industries, such as logistics, construction, and the automotive industry.

How Will Space Technology at ISRO

• Collision Avoidance Systems: The software and algorithms created for Chandrayaan-3's landing can be modified to stop auto accidents and increase vehicle safety.
• Airbag Deployment: By identifying the best times for airbag deployment, pressure sensors that are used in launch vehicles to track propellants can be recycled to improve passenger safety.
• Originally designed for space navigation, 3D LiDAR cameras produce 3D images with depth information and can help with autonomous driving, hazard detection, and pedestrian safety.
• Sensors: By localizing manufacturing and lowering reliance on imports, ISRO-developed niche sensors can lower costs in industrial and automotive applications.
• Medical diagnostics: The 3D LiDAR camera can be used for sophisticated imaging solutions or for precise body measurements that predict lifestyle diseases.
• In the construction and infrastructure industries, ISRO's NRCM-204 coating, which is extremely resistant to corrosion, shields metals from harsh conditions, such as acidic corrosion.
• This can be applied in the automotive industry to stop vehicle corrosion and in construction to safeguard metal structures.
• Systems for Managing Vibration This technology, which was first created to shield satellite electronics from vibrations during launch, can be modified to increase building safety during earthquakes by isolating buildings.
• Electronic Devices: ISRO's benzoxazine polymer can be used to encapsulate printed circuit boards and electronic components.
• That has outstanding flame-retardant qualities and stability at different temperatures.
• Energy and Transportation: ISRO's affordable lithium-ion battery technology can hasten the uptake of electric cars, promoting transit systems that are greener and more sustainable.
