The engineer further said that the subsurface detectors were designed and produced in terms of both hardware and software at Islamic Azad University (IAU) Roudehen branch located in suburb of Tehran and described the IAU-run national Asreh Omid Event as the most important technological event over the past years in Iran during which the knowledge-based companies gained more support from the industrial companies.
