What if your vehicle is stolen?
Are you concerned about your teenage children's activities? Where they go after college? Want to know what your spouse does when you are not around?
Your expensive mobile phone is lost?
These are only a few questions which do not have specific answers.

GPS tracking system or Satellite based tracking system would provide solutions to not just the above questions, but also a host of other requirements.

GPS systems help identify the exact location of an object through latitude and longitude co-ordinates, to which a GPS receiver device is attached. GPS systems can also be equipped with sensors to collect and report conditions such as speed, temperature, humidity, shock, vibration etc. This information is sent to a pre-designated computer server through a GPRS enabled sim card.

The systems can be used in a wide range of industrial applications such as,

• ‣ Fleet Management - Shipping Containers, Buses, Cabs, etc
• ‣ Monitoring movement of individual vehicles
• ‣ Tracking stolen vehicles
• ‣ Spying purposes by detective agencies and police
• ‣ Track convicts while moving them to and between courts or between jails and on those who are on parole
• ‣ Shipment of sensitive defense supplies
• ‣ Oil Tankers from oil companies to fuel stations
• ‣ Track mobile phones (SMART Phones)
• ‣ Cash transportation to Banks and ATMs
• ‣ Supply Chain Management and Logistics

As Indian economy grows, supply chain management becomes very vital for effective control of companies' business operations. A robust GPS based system can not only save money to companies, but also enable them to operate efficiently. It improves visibility, reduces the time spent seeking inventory while keeping a "safety inventory". It can greatly reduce theft, tampering and adulteration of goods during transportation and take immediate actions when such events occur.

As global security scenario worsens, it becomes important to ship the goods timely and safely while ensuring their integrity. As per some research studies, in the foreseeable future, the government is likely to mandate the use of satellite based tracking solutions to overcome the security problem.

We offer tracking solutions that can be broadly categorized as

findputty uses advanced technology to deliver accurate real time tracking. Tracking is available in web based versions as well standalone software versions.

In today's world, technology has swiftly become a major part of our daily lives. However, people with disabilities are largely left without any proper means to keep pace with us. The world has not provided them enough technology to transform themselves and adapt.

Belakubuntu is a project embarked upon to build a sophisticated Software Interface/Package that extensively maximizes the exposure of handicapped people to Information Technology.

Belakubuntu comes with various pre-installed tools and utilities that can be used by visually impaired people and people with hearing disabilities to perform all Computers or Internet related Operations and also developers to develop and test "accessible" applications.

Belakubuntu is a complete "accessible" Operating System. It can be installed like any other Operating System like Windows or Linux. It can be operated as a standalone independent Operating System or a second Operating System to the existing Windows or Linux as a dual boot system. It can also be used without installing using a live CD or a USB drive (Pen Drive).

It is a free open source software that can be downloaded and used by a disabled person in any part of the world.

• ‣ Onscreen Keyboard
• ‣ Magnification
• ‣ Screen Readers
• ‣ Browser
• ‣ Office Suite
• ‣ Themes
• ‣ Mouse Traps
• ‣ Mouse Tweaks
• ‣ Dasher
• ‣ Voice Recognition
• ‣ Localization
• ‣ Utilities - like Weather Forecast Reader, News / Headlines Reader via RSS / Atoms etc, Accessible Games, Subtitles Finder (for watching videos), Lyrics Finder & Reader (for audio players)

Other activities of the project are,

° Trainings for disabled people on using the software.
° Awareness and promotional campaigns among people to use the software and employ disabled persons.
° Job Placement Consulting.

Software upgradations are made available on the website for free which the users can download and upgrade offline on computer systems.

Auto upgrade feature of the software would automatically upgrade the software when a new version is found.

India is one of the important suppliers of handicrafts to the world market. The Indian handicrafts industry is highly labor intensive cottage based industry and decentralized, being spread all over the country in rural and urban areas. Numerous artisans are engaged in crafts work on part-time basis. The industry provides employment to over six million artisans (including those in carpet trade), which include a large number of women and people belonging to the weaker sections of the society.

In addition to the high potential for employment, the sector is economically important from the point of low capital investment, high ratio of value addition, and high potential for export and foreign exchange earnings for the country.

Though Indian culture and ethnicity is diverse with a wide variety of arts existing from a long time, Indian contribution to global handicrafts market is miniscule.

In the changing world scenario, craft products exported to various countries form a part of lifestyle products in international market. The impact is due to the changing consumer taste and trends. In view of this it is high time that the Indian handicraft industry went into the details of changing designs, patterns, product development, and requisite change in production facilities for a variety of materials, production techniques, and related expertise to achieve a leadership position in the fast growing competitiveness with other countries.

In simple terms, the handicraft industry in India is in complete shambles. A variety of factors have contributed to its ineffectiveness. Some of the pitfalls are highlighted below,

• ― Poor standard of raw materials
• ― High manufacturing cost
• ― Use of primitive techniques; Lack of adequate infrastructure and communication facilities
• ― Poor and inconsistent quality of products
• ― Capacity to handle limited orders
• ― Untimely delivery schedule
• ― Improper pricing of finished products
• ― The manufacturing process does not compliment with orders of such products
• ― Inadequate market study; Product design and development to be aligned with the background and history of the craft, the producer and the market requirements.
• ― Unawareness of international standards by many players in the market
• ― Lack of standardized vendor and suppliers
• ― Absence of proper incentives and schemes by the Government of India
• ― Unorganized investment patterns and lack of regular investors
• ― Lack of proper marketing channels and marketing strategies
• ― Poor access to urban markets

The core objective of Pingani project is to help Indian craftsmen produce handicrafts of high quality driven by demand and market requirements, and create a platform domestically as well as internationally on which these products can be sold for better value. A sophisticated online eCommerce portal would be launched for customers across the globe.

• ‣ Creating employment and livelihood to millions of people in rural areas as well as urban craft makers.
• ‣ Preserving Indian culture and heritage that is fast disappearing in a technology driven world.
• ‣ Increasing Indian foreign exchange earnings thereby significantly contributing to national GDP.
• ‣ Providing impetus to Indian tourism industry by giving a global exposure to Indian culture and tradition.

The overall activities of the project include,

• ― Identifying handicraft market opportunities
• ― Market research and necessary adaptations
• ― Focus on demand based production and bulk supply
• ― Training craftsmen on design improvements, using sophisticated tools, improving quality
• ― Procuring finished goods from different places
• ― Creating market platform to sell the products domestically or internationally through retail stores, eCommerce and several other means
• ― Creating brand image and marketing
• ― Advertising through different channels in domestic and international markets
• ― Centralizing all operations through latest technology
