IITM-Accenture

Automotive

Program background

The research on Autonomous Robotics Systems conducted by renowned minds from IIT Madras and Accenture has resulted in improved automation solutions.

With increasing global emphasis and development in EV technologies, it is important to understand how the different components of EVs would perform under different operating conditions. The Center uses multiple methods to determine including destructive testing of batteries to measure factors such as thermal runaway, or use of physics-based Digital Twins to optimize design and performance of electric motors.

The research on Autonomous Robotics Systems conducted by renowned minds from IIT Madras and Accenture has resulted in improved automation solutions.

Usage of IoT connected systems in industrial automation, operational optimization, intelligent manufacturing & asset management enables newer service and revenue models across Industries.

Automotive R&D powers solutions for OEMs and EV manufacturers across Infotainment, Body Electronics Modelling, Engine Control, Diagnostics and Electric Mobility services for the next automotive revolution.

Digital twin and thread aims to digitize and trace a product’s lifecycle, designs, performance data, supply chain data, and software that goes into creating the product.

Setting up of the Co-Innovation Center of Excellence

Pravartak will coordinate with IITM in providing the facility and engage with Accenture on programs of mutual interest; IITM will create and establish new facilities in the Automotive areas at the Institute using the capital grants of Accenture.

IITM has various modes of engagement, including the establishment of the Centres of Excellence, Corporate Social Responsibility programs, the establishment of a Chair Professorship/Faculty Fellowship, academic programs in coordination with Accenture which Pravartak will coordinate on.

Accenture will provide all reasonable support and cooperation to Pravartak for the successful accomplishment of the Centre of Excellence.
