Athil said his interest in robotics began during his school years, inspired partly by the Tamil film Enthiran and partly by Iron Man. He said he wanted to build his own version of that kind of technology. During that period, Arduino boards were difficult to get, so he started building small robots from whatever components were available.
One of his robots went viral in a video during…
Our recent Community Webinar featured Yatin Varachhia, Co-founder & CEO at Nosh Robotics, a company that makes a robot that cooks food. He previously worked as a design engineer at Analog Devices and has co-founded two companies. The session was held on a Sunday, with more than thirty people watching live, and included a question and answer segment.

At electronica India 2026, Nitin Jain, co-founder of 1Buy.AI, sat down with Aswinth Raj, editor of CircuitDigest, for an episode of electronica Xchange to discuss the role of artificial intelligence in procurement and its impact on India's supply chain. Nitin called electronica "a vibrant event," saying the first day had been strong and he expected even more inbound interest at the company's…
CP PLUS, the surveillance brand under Aditya Infotech, traces its origins to 2007. That year, the company decided to enter the surveillance technology space, with a vision of CCTV cameras becoming commonplace across India. What was then considered a luxury item for select businesses has since become, as M.A. Johar, President of Strategic Business at CP PLUS, put it, "a necessity" for hotels,…
A fab lab, short for fabrication laboratory, is a digital fabrication workspace rather than a traditional hand-tool workshop. The concept originated at the MIT Center for Bits and Atoms, where professor Neil Gershenfeld conceptualized and scaled the idea into an entity called the Fab Foundation. Gershenfeld drew inspiration from a visit to Pabal, near Pune, where Dr. Kalbag was building a…
