ISRO, Oppo India collaborate to ramp up messaging service in oceans

To strengthen the Research and Development (R&D) of NaVIC or the Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System (IRNSS) messaging service, the Indian Space Research Organisation has signed a pact with Oppo India. NavIC is a messaging service platform, which provides regional navigation services covering the entire country 

As per the Memorandum of Undertaking (MoU), both ISRO and Oppo India will exchange technical information of NavIC messaging services to build rapid, ready-to-use, end-to-end application-specific solutions. This will enable integrating NavIC messaging service with the mobile handset platform keeping in mind the need of Indian users.
