Thriving on frugal innovation
The Nano, brainchild of Ratan Tata, has been synonymous with innovations in emerging markets. His effort to fill the white spot between two-wheelers and mini cars for Indian mass family transportation needs has probably captured the maximum mind space globally as a frugal engineering success.

JLR's success masks Tata Motors' FAILURE
In the past, Tata Motors gave India its many first – country's first indigenous car (Tata Indica), first sports utility vehicle (Safari), first micro truck (Ace) or a Rs 100,000 car for the common citizen (Nano). After JLR's acquisition, however, the company has failed to connect with Indian car buyers. Continue reading
Tata Motors working on a mini SUV, revamping Nano
Deep in Tata Motors' largest factory, engineers don 3D glasses to play with car designs and prototypes projected from a 10-metre wide computer screen. Their quest? Continue reading
Flexible, light solar cells: Researchers develop a new approach using graphene sheets coated with nanowires
MIT researchers have produced a new kind of photovoltaic cell based on sheets of flexible graphene coated with a layer of nanowires. The approach could lead to low-cost, transparent and flexible solar cells that could be deployed on windows, roofs or other surfaces. Continue reading
Nanofibers clean sulfur from fuel
(Phys.org)—Sulfur compounds in petroleum fuels have met their nano-structured match. University of Illinois researchers developed mats of metal oxide nanofibers that scrub sulfur from petroleum-based fuels much more effectively than traditional materials. Such efficiency could lower costs and improve performance for fuel-based catalysis, advanced energy applications and toxic gas removal. Continue reading
Nano oscillators synchronized by light
(Phys.org)—Synchronization phenomena are everywhere in the physical world—from circadian rhythms to side-by-side pendulum clocks coupled mechanically through vibrations in the wall. Researchers have now demonstrated synchronization at the nanoscale, using only light, not mechanics. Continue reading
