Innovation: Nano Ganesh—a modem coupled with a mobile phone, connected to the starter mechanism of the water pump. Farmer does not physically need to go to water pumps, often miles away from his location, and can switch on/off the pumpset using his mobile phone. Recognition: First prize at Nokia’s ‘Call Innovators Challenge’, Barcelona.
Innovator: T Raghavendra Rao
Innovation: Polycrack process—converts plastic and organic waste into petroleum fuels. Recognition: Lockheed Martin Innovation Award; The Tech Awards nominee.
Innovator: Kranthi Vistakula
Innovation: ClimaGear— air-conditioned jackets, helmets and neck scarves using its patented ‘ClimaCon’ technology that works on the thermoelectric principle. Recognition:Among the top five at the Intel-Berkeley Technology Entrepreneurship Challenge.
Innovator: Devesh Agarwal
Innovation: ‘Power over Ethernet’ (PoE)—describes a system which transmits electrical power, along with data, to remote devices over cable in an Ethernet network. So Agarwal’s company Infomart is credited with developing the world’s first high-power PoE endpoint solution to address the emerging high power needs of video surveillance and wireless access points, where it would otherwise be inconvenient and expensive to supply power. Recognition: Lockheed Martin Innovation Award.
Innovator: Gopi Kumar Bulusu
Innovation: Teraptor—allows the design of new embedded systems devices at an architectural level, reducing the workforce on embedded design and bringing down the time to market. Recognition: Gary Smith Wall Chart
Innovator: Janak Seth
Innovation: Apoptopic Proteins— he designed a molecule that goes into cancerous and asthmatic cells, forcing them to commit suicide. He claims it is a completely new molecule with no parallel the world over. Recognition: Lockheed Martin Innovation Award.
