Worked with an agile team consisting of Harvard, IIT Bombay and COEP graduates, to design, prototype and validate India's first indigenous modular street litter collector, largely based on the concepts of frugal innovation (minimalistic approach in design and manufacturing). The designed machine is 80% cheaper and 20% more efficient than existing solutions in India. This resulted in me being recognized as a ‘J.N.Tata Scholar’.
