Consortium

Collaborating for Innovation: Together Towards a Smarter Future.

CoE-AI

The Centre of Excellence in Artificial Intelligence (CoE AI), National Institute of Technology Calicut (NITC) has been established to design and develop scalable AI solutions and products.

SAMUDRA PROJECTS

CoE AI - NITC envisions the project as a special-purpose vehicle for creating a positive impact on the lives of our citizens in the context of sustainable cities. In Phase I of the AI Centres of Excellence Initiative, CoE AI - NITC is working on multiple projects under Sustainable Applications for Mobility, Urban Development, and Resilience using Artificial intelligence (SAMUDRA) along with our consortium partners. The project outcomes include developing AI-based solutions that improve disaster preparedness through optimal monitoring of structural health, optimize traffic flow, facilitate intelligent parking and enhance the security of citizens.
