Department of Science & Technology (DST) is implementing multi-stakeholder National Mission on Interdisciplinary Cyber Physical System (NM-ICPS). The Mission was approved by the Union Cabinet in 2018 at a total outlay of Rs.3660 Crores for a period of five years. NM-ICPS is a comprehensive Mission aimed at complete convergence with all stakeholders by establishing strong linkages between academia, industry, Government and International Organizations. The Mission working with all the concerned Ministries/ Departments to identify their technology needs, develop solutions and technical support. The Mission aims at development of technology platforms to carry out R&D, Translational Research, Product Development, Incubating & Supporting Start-ups as well as Commercialization.
Mission Objectives are:
- To promote translational research in Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) and associated technologies.
- To develop technologies, prototypes and demonstrate associated applications pertaining to national priorities.
- To enhance high-end researchers base, Human Resource Development (HRD) and skill-sets in these emerging areas.
- To enhance core competencies, capacity building and training to nurture innovation and start-up ecosystem.
- To establish and strengthen the international collaborative research for cross-fertilization of ideas.
- To set up world-class interdisciplinary centers of excellence in several academic institutions across the country, that can become repositories of core expertise in CPS and related areas and serve as focal points for technology inputs for the industry and policy advice for the government
- To involve Government and Industry R&D labs as partners in the collaboration centers. Incentivise private participation to encourage professional execution and management of pilot scale research projects
- To set mission mode application goals and foundational themes for excellence for different centers. Set up CPS test beds at various centers.
- To tie up with incubation centers and accelerators to foster close collaboration with entrepreneurship eco-system
- To address some of the National issues and development of sector-specific solutions.
