The Central Scientific Instruments Organisation (CSIO) today transferred the technology for manufacturing a new variant of head-up display (HUD) for the Tejas fighter aircraft to Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL), Panchkula, for commercial production.
The transfer agreement was signed by Prof RK Sinha, Director CSIO, and PK Changoiwala, General Manager, BEL. Head-up display (HUD) is an electro-optical instrument that superimposes vital flight information on the pilot’s view of the outside world without having him to peer down into the cockpit’s console, thereby enabling him to fly with his “head up.”
Prof Sinha said the technology transfer was an outcome of collaborative efforts of both organisations towards the development of highly sophisticated strategic technology.
