The Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Guwahati on Saturday announced the development of a ‘Smart Engineer,’ an Artificial Intelligence-assisted engineering system design tool, that promises to push penetration of Electric Vehicles (EV) on Indian roads.
The ‘Smart-Engineer,’ built by the e-mobility lab (EML) at IIT Guwahati seeks to address one of the primary hurdles in indigenizing the EV technology — lack of trained human resources in engineering design and system integration. “A key challenge posed by EV technology is how can a pool of trained human resources with the technical know-how be created in the shortest possible time. IIT Guwahati’s EML has been working towards addressing this critical challenge using AI.
