There are many ways to sell a product. During project 2, the product was conceived purely with the user in mind and the current manufacturing possibilities ( see figure below) But to sell the product to a company, it must fit into the company’s portfolio. It may have to be part of the company’s range of products, be viable using the production methods of that company and fit into their philosophy of selling products. Another way of selling the product is to create a business model and start a business around it. This project focuses on the commercial viability of the product and on designing the product to fit a company’s product portfolio.

EVfutures is India's largest electric vehicle portal with extensive information about electric bikes, electric scooters, and electric cars. An electric vehicle (EV) is a vehicle with one or more electric motors for propulsion. An electric vehicle consists of batteries which are used as the source of energy. They could be lead-acid, lithium ion based batteries, The controller is a logic control to control the DC motor by user input, i.e., accelerator, and transfer the required energy from the battery to the motor and electric motor, a DC motor to propel the vehicle, attached at the wheel or through a drive train. The redesign of the HumVee retained most of the components of the current HumVee. The frame suited its purpose and so was retained The position of the footrests was found to be comfortable from testing and so retained Rear shocks were customizable but there was a need to cover the positioning slots Other components were easily available as bike parts and hence retained. The styling was restricted to mostly the frame and headlights.

With a growing population and the influx of people into the cities, urban India has had a constraint on living space. In a city like Mumbai, even entire families live in single-room apartments. So there is a lot of emphasis on space in such homes. All basic activities happen in the living room, which also doubles up as a dining area, TV viewing area, study room for kids and a bedroom. An ideal piece of furniture would be one that elegantly addresses all these activities. Transforming furniture is not a new concept. The standard sofa bed is an example of a piece of transforming furniture. Recently, however, different variants have been popularised with an emphasis on style. Sofas that transform into bunk beds or a bed that transforms into a cabinet are modern examples of transformable furniture. Throughout this report, the terms "transformer" and "transformable furniture" will be used interchangeably to mean the same thing.

Neonatal care for preterm infants remains one of the most basic needs in India that is difficult to access. Special wards known as Neonatal intensive care units exist only in tertiary hospitals owing to the specialist equipment and staff required to run them. This project owes its beginnings to observing the general condition of neonatal care in the country. There were reports of babies being baked in incubators and equipment failing. Some news excerpts are given below. This was the trigger point in the whole investigation into looking at infant incubators. Over the course of the research, other issues rose apart from the glaring problems with incubators mentioned above. These were issues of crowding of the incubators with multiple infants, lack of space, issues of transport, sheer lack of incubators, and cost of equipment. Apart from the scarcity of equipment, there is a scarcity of staff and supporting structure. It was realised that neonatal care needed a system-level intervention and not just a product-level intervention. Though the issues were many and some out of the scope of a design project, the focus was given to the transport of the preterm infants. The safe and secure travel of these infants is as necessary as being in an incubator in a NICU.
