Technopark-based company to deliver indigenously developed checkout systems to ISRO

Technopark-based startup company Taclog Private Limited is set to deliver its indigenously developed checkout systems to the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). DatoScoop, the product designed and developed by the company is expected to be rolled out to ISRO and other clients in the defence sector, said Pratheesh V.Nair, CEO of Tachlog in a press release.

Speaking at Technopark’s official vodcast, ‘Aspire: Stories of Innovation,’ Mr.Nair said checkout systems are critical components for Space and Defence sectors. DatoScoop, one of Tachlog’s flagship products, is a highly capable data acquisition system, equipped with options for customisation. It is currently in use by ISRO as a checkout system for testing their indigenously developed gyro sensors.

The checkout systems currently used by ISRO and the Defence sector are bulky, hard to handle and expensive, typically costing between ₹30 lakh and ₹1 crore. DatoScoop was envisioned as a compact, efficient and affordable handheld alternative to these systems. Twenty units of the product has already been delivered to ISRO already, according to the CEO.

DatoScoop records data from a Unit Under Test/Device Under Test, which follows a command response protocol. The device is capable of converting and saving the data in a human readable form. It is a standalone four-channel data capture system with isolated inputs and high-speed drivers.

It is integrated with a touch screen-based Graphical User Interface. The system is capable of selecting/accepting user inputs, and displaying the outputs and status. The system is integrated with a replaceable external storage device having a capacity of 1TB. DatoScoop is currently available on GeM, the Government of India’s e-marketplace portal.
