234.SANJEEVANI

SANJEEVANI is a Life detecting device designed to detect human beings trapped under debris of collapsed buildings, landslide etc. SANJEEVANI is available as portable handy package and the probe head can be used in air, water or mud. The unit consists of a hydrophone mounted at the end of a telescopic boom through which it is connected to the minimum electronics in a waist-mounted pack. This can be extended to two meters length with its rigid tube making it accessible to the interior of debris. SANJEEVANI was used for the first time to detect survivors after Gujarat earthquake. Six Lives were saved in the Gujarat earthquake using the initial model of Sanjeevani in 2002.This device is a spin off of the research in acoustic detection technology for sonar systems done in NPOL. The Acoustic life detector Mark I was made using the hydrophone indigenously developed by NPOL and with the required electronic and mechanical systems, quickly to meet the requirement of saving live human beings trapped under the debris during Gujarat earthquake. Mark II version with flexible hose and microphone and LED indicator was made and demonstrated by the firm. Sanjeevani Mark II will have flexible tips for direction finding, better filters, LED indicators and microphones to establish contact with the victim. This device can be used in all emergency civilian rescue operations.

Question can we produce as many Chassis of BMP,T-72 & other armored vehicles or do we have to take permission from the Russians

from what I know we have full production capability and rights for BMP-2 and T-72,so yes for them we can make as many as we want. But we are yet to achieve the same with T-90.
