November 30, 2003
Three students from ORT's School of Engineering developed an information technology project for the Chilean Navy.

Lieutenant Eduardo González, a student in the Bachelor of Systems Analysis program; Lieutenant Frederick Fontanot, a student in the Telecommunications Engineering program; and Raúl Lecunberry, a student in the Systems Engineering program, are the students leading the project within the Chilean Navy.

The project consists of a multi-channel data link that enables the integration of shipborne and land-based radars, significantly improving maritime traffic control and rescue operations.
