M/s Vayavya Labs Private Limited, Belagavi, Karnataka
Technology Development Board (TDB) has entered into an agreement with M/s Vayavya Labs Pvt. Ltd. for the project on “Development and Commercialization of Device Driver Generator (DDGen).“ The project received the loan assistance of Rs. 2.4 crore against the total project cost of Rs. 12 crore.
About the Technology

Device Driver Generator (DDGen) is a tool that automatically generates almost complete device driver based on two input specifications. The two input specifications are Device Programming Specification (DPS) and Run Time Specification (RTS). This product is new to the market and industry. The DPS which enables the formal capture of the Programming sequence of all peripheral functionality of a SoC. The RTS enables the capture of the software and systems specification of the driver environment. DDGen supports multiple operating systems. DDGen can reduce up to 40 per cent cost and up-to 50 per cent reduction in time to market. DDGen makes 10x faster support for derivation boards or different OS.
Vayavya's technology is now part of Global standards (under Accellera org the contributions are called Hardware-Software-Interfaces (HSI)). The technology has also featured as Deloitte Fastest 50 (Technology).
Commercialisation of the Product

The project trials were undertaken in Punjab & Haryana. It was developed using in-house technology. A total of 31,975 units were sold in the year of commercialization itself. Total revenue of Rs. 1.35 crore has been created from the commercialization year and the subsequent year. The company has 16 state of the art microbial products developed using in-house technology. All products are marketed in India and exported to over 5 countries routinely. Field trials were initiated at Punjab Agricultural University and Haryana Agricultural University to scientifically evaluate the impact of technology for straw utilization. Speed Kompost TM Quality control laboratory was upgraded to ensure product quality as per FCO norms. The equipment procured were Kel Plus, Fume Hood, accessories for AAS, etc. The Speed Kom post TM production capacity was upgraded to 1000 tonnes/annum. The equipment procured were fermenter, water storage tanks, mixers, conveyer belt, compressors, rotary shakers, etc. Marketing strategies used for successful implementation of ASRSD included farmer and dealer meetings, radio jingles, hoardings, television/newspaper/magazine advertisements, press conferences at Delhi and Ludhiana, participation in Krishi mela at Punjab Agriculture University (PAU), and participation in TDB exhibition. Around 120 tons of the product has been sold on over 30,000 acres of rice fields since 2018 leading to 3000 plus satisfied rice farmers.
Impact of funding
