The Technology entering every phase of life & is getting more and more automated

Man-machine interface (MMI) technologies paved way for some of industrial automation’s most beneficial applications, for access to critical information. Competition is fierce in industrial World, & continued MMI improvements to capitalize on the added connectivity options & real-time data to improve factory line monitoring, control, & productivity.

The Technology- Stethoscope for Machines and Electronics for Heart 5

Much of Technology & Innovation in Industrial world is an IT Intervention- Requiring Skills Change Dynamically

Deep Learning : With massive amounts of computational power, machines can now recognize objects and translate speech in real time. Artificial intelligence is finally getting smart.

GE’s Innovation Barometer -2012 2,800 senior business executives -in 22 countries voted various countries with 65% votes by the global respondents in favour of US, Germany (48 %), Japan (45 %), China (38 %), Korea (13 %) and India closely behind at (12 %) of the global votes

Innovation: A flexible Definition- Out of Box Thinking , Lateral Thinking / Oblique Thinking, Creative Thinking / Insightful Thinking

Product Innovation / Service Innovation New Market Innovation/ Disruptive Innovation Operational innovation

The Blue-Collar Robot Rethink Robotics’ new creation is easy to interact with, but the innovations behind the robot show just how hard it is to get along with people : Baxter Jugad !! An Innovation or a Patchwork in Technology, Or a economical way of achieving the Industrial Advantage In the midst of rising global competition and swelling R&D budgets, Jugaad Innovation presents ways to innovate, be flexible, & do more with less. Peppered with examples of innovative entrepreneurs in emerging markets such as Africa, India, China, and Brazil, Jugaad Innovation illuminates paths to engender breakthrough growth in a complex and resource-scarce world. Jugad an acceptable form of Frugal Engineering and out of box thinking

Reverse Innovation : Getting deeper into Innovation by Stripping down Innovated Product, leveraging innovation of others. Exovation : GE MAC 800- ECG is a low cost portable machine developed in Bangalore center and exported to USA also leveraging innovation of others and exporting back to Innovator

Oculus Rift : Jan 2014 Las Vegas Display for Gaming & e-learning Applications : Search & Rescue simulation, Canada is aligning it for Disarming the explosives. Sweden: for Intuitive aerial planning for pilotless drones, similar to India’s Rustom II USA’s Blue Shark Project uses Google’s Goggles in helmet

Q : For Sustenance of our Plant assets!!

Is our workforce ready to take on learning and furthering the Technology’s enhancement? Or we satisfied with small innovations in India or go in for Jugad ? Or we remain dependent on foreign Innovation & Technologies?

Research Study on Academia – Industry Interaction for Innovation by Dr MR Shollapur 17 % Industry Ready for Help in Curriculum Design 28% ……………………………..Work Exposure & Practical Training 14% ……………………………..Teacher’s Deputation to Industry 28% ……………………………..Readiness to associate with Industry 14% ……………………………..Conduct Joint Conferences 15%……………………………..Undertake Collaborative Research

Sum Up – Contributions required from all Stakeholders

• Govt. to Incentivize Innovation (Action Govt.)

• Sincere efforts on Implementation of NVEQF & Updating Engg. Curricula, India’s reluctant reformers have to gear up. (Govt.)

• Set Skill Standards, Industry to help setting Skill Standards (Govt. & Industry)

• Social Status needed towards Vocational Education (Govt. & Industry)

• It is worth brain storming by the Policy makers on the Skilling that , how will job automation impact the economy in the future? What are the impacts on Globalisation Collaboration? Telecommuting and what are the forces that will shape the workplaces of the future? Or is there something bigger lurking? Looking at this aspect with an holistic approach(Govt. & Industry)

• Technology would continue to push economic growth-only a few with regular Skills update would enjoy the benefits. More people would be competing for mid-pay jobs, so pay would shrivel. Many mid-skill workers would be left unemployed or shunted into low-skill, low-pay jobs. (Govt. & Industry)

Industry to Work on continuous Skilling up of Plant Manager on today’s high Technological and Innovative Changes. Smarter machines from the technologically offensive with niftier software will continue to replace more and more mid-pay jobs and mid- skilled jobs, making businesses more productive and swelling their profits. (Industry , Individuals & Trade Unions)

Sum Up Continues………

• Objectives of the S&T Policy 2013 & 12th Plan Strategies- Innovative capabilities and Skills can be learned, involving time, education, knowledge & institutional support for innovative processes to be generated endogenously. (Govt., Industry,

Institution)

• Continuous Skilling will make the most highly skilled workers- those who can use machines to be more productive but can't be replaced by these machines- will continue to prosper. (Industry, Individuals & Trade Unions)

• Age is no bar for Skilling up. (Industry , Individuals & Trade Unions)

• To give a chance to those with low-pay jobs by Skilling, which otherwise are likely to remain sheltered. (Industry , Individuals & Trade Unions)

• Industry Skilling Facilitators to work on approach to earn the ’ROTI’ – Return on Training Investment (Industry & Institution)

• Industry’s Skilling programs or by Policy makers for Country level Skilling should be seen beforehand. (Govt. & Industry)

• Institution- Industry Tie up : a must (Industry & Institution)

Breaking the barriers of Technology and Innovation for Multi-skilling / Inter disciplinary learnings working on various screens simultaneously is today’s requirement (Industry , Institution , Individuals & Trade Unions)

think they can do. You can go as far as your

mind lets you. What you believe, remember,

you can achieve. Mary Kay Ash
