Ultraviolette pushes free update to F77 electric motorcycle: What's new
Gen3 Powertrain Firmware
. Interestingly, it's completely free for all existing F77 owners.
At the heart of this new update is a feature called Ballistic+, a new mode that injects more urgency into the throttle response, making the F77 feel quicker and more alive the moment you twist the throttle. While the bike's peak output figures remain unchanged at 40 hp and 100 Nm of torque, the riding experience is said to be sharper and more engaging.
What makes this upgrade special is its intelligence. Ultraviolette has tapped into Violette A.I., its connected software system that learns from rider behaviour. This system has analysed data from over 8 million km of global on-road usage. It looks at how riders accelerate, how they brake, what kind of roads they ride on, and how they interact with the bike. All this information feeds into the bike's central brain, allowing it to continuously fine-tune performance through the new Ballistic+ mode.

The Vehicle Control Unit (VCU) of the F77 plays a crucial role in this transformation. It processes more than 3,000 data points in real time, adjusting the motor controller, drivetrain, and battery management system on the go. The result is a more dynamic and responsive motorcycle: all without touching the hardware. Battery capacities also remain unchanged at 7.1 kWh for the Mach 2 and 10.3 kWh for the Mach 2 Recon, with no revisions to range figures.
What's even better is that this Gen3 firmware is fully backwards-compatible. So whether you're an early adopter or a recent buyer, you'll be able to download and install this upgrade free of cost.

Chennai Metrowater pilots robotic cleaning in sewage pumping stations to boost efficiency and workers' safety
After deploying robots to clean sewer lines in some city zones, Chennai Metrowater is now piloting the use of robotic technology in sewage pumping stations in Thiruvanmiyur. The initiative aims to enhance operational safety and efficiency by minimising manual intervention. The water agency has already added Bandicoot Mobility, a robot that cleans maintenance holes of the sewer network, to remove clogged waste in sewer lines in zone 6 ( 9 (Teynampet) and 13 (Adyar). With robotic devices, which were developed by Genrobotics, a Kerala-based startup, helping to reduce clogging of lines for a year now, the water agency is exploring other innovative technologies to improve maintenance of sewer infrastructure. Officials of the Metrowater said an advanced robot with remote control unit and cameras, Wilboar, is being used to clean the sewage wells in Thiruvanmiyur sewage pumping station on a pilot basis. The robotic unit developed by Genrobotics is lowered into the wells that have a depth of up to 10 metre to remove the silt. With high-pressure water jets and grinders, the device grinds accumulated sludge into finer particles and clears them. This would eliminate the challenges in the use of conventional processes, improve efficiency of cleaning sewer wells and reduce complaints of sewage overflow in the pipelines. The Thiruvanmiyur sewage pumping station has a capacity to handle 15 million litres of sewage a day. Such robotic devices are already in use at Nellore, Andhra Pradesh and Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, said officials. There are 375 sewage pumping stations in the city. Such robotic devices would be deployed in sewer well cleaning operations in other pumping stations following the success of the trial implementation. Rao, president, Chennai Metropolitan Water Supply and Sewerage Board Labourers Union, said it was a welcome initiative to ensure workers' safety and reduce manual intervention. Such efforts must be expanded to densely populated urban spaces and monitored for regular maintenance. Workers hired for sewer network maintenance should be redeployed to other roles. Nearly 2,850 labourers have been hired for sewer and water network maintenance in Chennai.

Logistics played key role in Operation Sindoor success, says Rajnath Singh
Synopsis Defence Minister Rajnath Singh lauded Indian agencies for their seamless logistics management during Operation Sindoor, emphasizing its crucial role in the operation's success. He highlighted that modern warfare relies not only on weaponry but also on the timely delivery of resources. Seamless logistics management by Indian agencies-from mobilisation of the armed forces to delivering equipment at the right time and place-was a deciding factor in the success of Operation Sindoor, defence minister Rajnath Singh said on Sunday. ADVERTISEMENT In a virtual address at the convocation ceremony of Vadodara-based Gati Shakti Vishwavidyalaya (GSV), the minister said in the current era, wars are not just won by guns and bullets but by time-bound delivery of material, highlighting Op Sindoor as an example of excellent logistics management. "Whether it's soldiers fighting on the border or personnel engaged in disaster management, without coordination or proper management of resources, even the strongest of intentions weaken. Logistics is the power that transforms chaos into control. Power is measured not only by weapons, but also by timely resource management. Be it war, disaster or global pandemic, the nation which keeps its logistics chain strong is the most stable, secure and capable," he said.
