Swarachakra: Keyboard for typing in Indic scripts on Android
Text input in Indian languages on mobile phones has many challenges. Not surprisingly, text input on computers and mobile devices in India is still predominantly in English. But only a small minority of Indians can read or write in English. This is a major barrier in the wider adoption of digital technologies by such users. Our research aims at designing easy-to-use text input mechanism sto enable Indians to type in their mother tongue.
Nano-dimension to IoT
Bipolar Junction Transistors enables Bi-CMOS to aid the nation's civilian and strategic interests through the Internet of Things.
Smart Solution for Smartphones?
Anybody who migrates to smart phones soon begins to question the smartness of it all. While batteries lasted a fortnight or so in vanilla mobile phones, a smartphone typically empties the battery in less than a day. Carrying those bulky rechargers is a remedy worse than malady. How do you power your smart phone for days when you are nowhere near a power source?

Wi-Fi or Cellular Data? Not Your Headache Anymore!
Researchers from IIT Bombay propose algorithms for service providers to efficiently manage the choice of the right network for your mobile devices.
The Gigabit Networking laboratory at IIT Bombay has been instrumental in two key technology developments in the telecom arena: the CESR and the TCC.
The CESRs: A telecommunication technology called Carrier Ethernet Switch Routers or CESRs was developed by the Gigabit Networking Laboratory at IIT Bombay. The goal of CESRs was to facilitate telecom service providers to move large chunks of data through its network by acting upon data headers at various levels of service offerings. The first indigenously conceptualized, designed, fabricated and patented CESRs were rolled out in Spring of 2011, and the launch customer for the CESRs was MTNL. MTNL built two data-centers, in Mumbai commissioned in May 2011 that used the CESRs.

Jammer Proofing Communication Systems
A theoretical study from IIT Bombay can help make our military communication more robust
The security and reliability of communication systems used in military applications are uncompromisable. Jammers can disrupt radio communication in a locality; a strategy the military is shown to use while attacking terrorist camps in a recent movie. Knowing how jammers behave in various conditions becomes significant.
