Niyoto Technologies Pvt. Ltd. is a deep tech startup building hardware + software solutions for the defence sector. We are developing innovative solutions for diverse problems that utilise our proprietary, state-of-the-art AI platform, and custom-built hardware.
Niyoto is a winner of the iDEX Defence India Startup Challenge, and a proud supporter of the “Make in India” initiative.
An AI software system powering “made in India” hardware to detect underground tunnels
Detect buried landmines and IEDs quickly with pinpoint accuracy without requiring the operator to step out of the bunker
Identify crevasses in Himalayan glaciers, as well as survival supplies that have been airdropped and get buried in snow and ice
State of the art AI software platform for target detection
Remote operation from a bunker; safeguards the operator from snipers, mines, and hazards
10x enhancement in the speed of data acquisition; reduces operator fatigue and stress
User-friendly UI for data visualisation, comparative analysis, report generation; requires no technical skills for operations
Autonomous flying and return home capability without operator intervention
Non-destructive data acquisition via a drone / rover over different terrains
Highly secure system with data encryption, access control, audit trails, and backups; works standalone or in a secure network
Actionable insights with up-to-the-minute data analytics
Our goal is to build dual use technologies that have applications beyond defence, in areas as diverse as oil and gas, disaster management, archaeology etc. Our hardware and core AI platform can be easily adapted to solutions such as:
Detection and mapping of underground utilities like water pipes, sewage lines, electric cables and other underground objects of interest
Detection of underground pipe leakages to a precision of 0.5m
Exploration and mapping of archaeological sites in a non-destructive manner
Determine the surface integrity of roads and areas post heavy rains or floods, as well as mapping buried objects
