People refer to me as a inventor, as a gadget guru, but I'm just a simple dreamer. Hi, I'm Venkatesh Prasad. At TCS, I work as a head of Product Design and Manufacturing in the Smart Machines area. Globally, I have around 110 patents filed in India, US, Europe, geographies and out of which around 4 products I have gone into production mode. As a child, you know, we had TV and you know that time the very attractive series were coming on Jane Robot. So I was like hooked up whenever I would never used to miss the show, you know that interest of Robot came from that time. Like me, my daughter is also in interested into robotics and she has taken up to do projects in robotics along with her academics in engineering. So for example, she is doing building a third eye for a blind so to be able to do detect objects or help him navigate from one place to another. And I spent my weekends in helping her as well. For every innovation, you know, you need imagination. That is the starting point, right? So we have formed a small group in TCS called Imagination Station and we meet once in two weeks. And the goal of this group is to come up with new ideas. So apart from our regular activities, So what we have thought is we will look around, observe. Innovators need to be good observers. So observation leads to better innovation. During COVID times, the major problem was house health. We didn't get house help right. I also used to wash dishes earlier but I never did so much. So what happened was my wife, she taught me this is the way to clean. So one is cleaning with water then applying. The second step is applying the soap and the brush. Your brush, scrubbing and the third step is again applying water. So I could see that the 30-40 where utensils I had to wash. I took 30 to 40 minutes. So three steps. So I thought why can't we innovate this with you know. Then I put this as a problem statement to my team imagination team and everybody brainstorm. We thought about it and finally we came up with the idea of a gloves. So the idea is with one flow of your hand. The plate is cleaned, it is rinsed, it is scrubbed and it is cleaned. So totally, at least 40 to 50%. Time saving is happening. The advantage of our solution is also sustainability. You know, it consumes less water and cleans fast and it saves human energy. And it's a very innovative product that has come out of this team thing and it is also patented. My wife was saying, wow. She said. When are you going to make and get me this product? So I'm working on that. Just like they say the inventor never sleeps so like that you need to always be thinking when the idea strikes. So I will sit on it till I conceive it fully. So it may happen that I end up wake up all over the night. So till 3:00 AM, four AM. Finally I am happy that I have conceived A workable idea. So that gives me full happiness. It has over the 3-4 weeks you have failed but finally you have one. The thing that I like most about TCS is my ideas. They are not just lying as ideas, they are getting converted as either a platform or a product. It finally goes as a solution to the customer and customer gets benefit out of it. Some of my products are going to make the world a better place to live in.
