3. What is Frugal Engineering?
The term "Frugal engineering"
introduced by Carlos , the joint
chief of Renault and Nissan.
He said , "frugal engineering is
achieving more with fewer
resources."

4. Engineering
Frugal is an engineering philosophy
Stream Philosophy

5. Gandhian
Engineering
Philosophies of Gandhian engineering;
-Ahinsa
-Swadeshi
- Acting in a selfless, compassionate, but
unconventional manner to create a better
world for all, not just a few.
Judggad
Engineering
“I would prize every invention of science made for the benefit
of all.”
—Mahatma Gandhi
Derived from Sanskrit word
YUKTI  JUGGAT  JUGGAD
Juggad term is applied to a creative or
innovative idea providing a quick, alternative
way of solving or fixing a problem.

6. Juggad Engineering: In its crude form

7. Juggad Engineering: In its Refined form

they claim can run
300 kmpl.

8. What is Essential for Frugal
Engineering?
1. Common Sense
2. Common Sense

9. Thanks to Almighty
Unique to Humans
1. Humour
2. Appreciation of beauty
3. Awareness of death
4. Understanding time
5. Meaning of life
6. Desire for worship
7. Creativity
Use your brain

10. What % of brain do most of
intelligent humans use?
Answer is 0.67 – 1.5%.
Einstein was the only person who
could use his 2.28% of brain.
if we are able to use even 4% ;
- Faster than supercomputers.
-Can predict the future.
-And now about our previous life
which is stored in the subconscious
part of our mind.

12. Practicing Frugal Engineering
The Philosophy
It Is Easier To Want
What You Get,
Than To Get What
You want.

13. 1. Accept that you can be creative
2. Question traditional assumptions
3. Expand your problem-solving styles
4. Employ creativity techniques
5. Practice thinking in new ways
6. Search for Alternate

14. Explore Your Surrounding
Scan Your Mind for any better Alternate use
Learn from a child
They are BIGGEST EXPLORER

15. The frugal way

16. Challenge the Obvious
Re-examine the traditional approach
Helios was a prototype high-altitude, long-duration unmanned solar-powered aerial vehicle. In 2001, Helios
reached an altitude of 96,863 feet, breaking an official world record altitude for a non-rocket-powered
aircraft.

17. Believe in yourself,
Keep patience

18. Don't get emotionally
attached to your
innovation,
One day you or
somebody else will
change it.

19. Every act of
creation is
first of all,
An act of
destruction
Pablo Picasso

20. Analysis Paralysis
Action without Vision
Avoid

21. Theory vs. Practice
In theory, there is no difference
between theory
and practice.
But in practice there is.

22. Perfection vs. Optimization
Tank Battle : World War-II
German TIGER tank vs Russian T-34
Counts=5,000
Counts=2,500
Germans Tanks were
highly precise in hitting
their targets .
But
Production with very
tight tolerance limit
slow down the
production of tank
during II-WW
Russian T-34 were not
that accurate . Close
machining tolerances
were maintained only
where it was a must.
Therefore
Russian were able to
deploy the double
strength of tanks.
In the first day 60 Tiger and 328
Russian T-34 were lost. Tiger
emerged as better tank BUT Germans
lost the battle.

23. Obstacles to Workplace Creativity
1. Internal politics
2. Harsh criticism of new ideas
3. Destructive internal
competition
4. Avoidance of risk and
overemphasis on the status
quo.
5. Extreme Work timing
6. Unrealistic expectations
7. Distractions

25. Frugal Innovations
Google Incorporation: Income from Advertisements
Larry Page and Sergey Brin
•Google began in January 1996, by Larry Page and Sergey Brin, PhD
students at Stanford University.
•Google search engine was different from conventional search engines
because it was based on relevance and importance of page to user
rather than counting how many times the search terms appeared on the
page.
•Because of this new search approach , “PageRank Algorithm”, results
were much refined and related to user. Very soon Google was favourite
search engine world wide.
•But still earning revenue was a million dollar question for Google Team.
• They decided to incorporate user related advertisement along with
search results.
•Now Google is officially bigger than Microsoft Inc according to
NASDAQ.
