Introduction:
What is product development laboratory?
It is a course in which each individual or group of people should work on their ideas for
developing a particular product.
It is not a single laboratory work.
Different people work in different laboratories in the department for making the product
How it helps?
Leads to a startup based on the product developed.
Working in labs individually with their thoughts and research papers study might create
interest in individuals towards research.
If the product developed is very effective, cost effective, extremely needed. Then that
product can be commercialized
What are the considerations that should be kept in mind while designing a product?
1. Cost efficient : the components cost should be less and effectively work
2. Size efficient
3. Advantages over already existing products in the market.
4. No side effects or minimal side effects in case of health care products.

Discussion on Herbal Products:
Ayurveda: it has grown from being an antique tradition to a being a conceptual science
being evolved around principles of health. It’s not just about using herbs or other natural
product as drugs but also using therapies to correct disturbed balance of the body.
More and more people are inclining towards it.
Pharmacopoeial Commission of India Medicine & Homoeopathy
and Ayurvedic Pharmacopoeia Committee are in place to develop quality standards and
Standard Operating Procedures for the manufacturing of Ayurvedic drugs.
Herbal products like patanjali are widely used in these days.
Herbal products has not so much risk in approval and testing compared to normal
therapeutic drugs.
Work: Our group studied research papers related to the project (mastitis detection by
measuring milk resistance)

Procurement of materials:
Each group prepared the list of materials required for their product.
Patent rights:
A patent is an exclusive right granted for an invention. In other words, a patent is an
exclusive right to a product or a process that generally provides a new way of doing
something, or offers a new technical solution to a problem. To get a patent, technical
information about the invention must be disclosed to the public in a patent application.
The patent owner may give permission to, or license, other parties to use the invention on
mutually agreed terms. The owner may also sell the right to the invention to someone else,
who will then become the new owner of the patent. Once a patent expires, the protection
ends, and an invention enters the public domain; that is, anyone can commercially exploit
the invention without infringing the
Is patient valid in every country?
Patents are territorial rights. In general, the exclusive rights are only applicable in the
country or region in which a patent has been filed and granted, in accordance with the law
of that country or region.
What conditions should be met to obtain a patent?
The invention must show an element of novelty.The invention must involve an “inventive
step” or “non-obvious”. The invention must be disclosed in an application in a manner
sufficiently clear and complete to enable it to be replicated by a person with an ordinary
level of skill in the relevant technical field.
Who grants patients?
A patent is granted by a national patent office or by a regional office that carries out the task
for a number of countries. There is currently, no universal, international system for the grant
of patents.

We made amplifier circuit for amplifying the small and week biomedical signals.
We have given input from the function generator and corresponding output waveforms were
observed in the digital storage oscilloscope.
The outputs and the circuit diagram corresponding to that are shown below.
Circuit diagram:

We made band pass filter circuit for allowing certain range of frequencies which are
required.
Main purpose is to eliminate noise.
We made electrodes for capturing the pulses.
The principle behind the electrodes is:
Fig 6: sensor
Fig 7: Band pass filter circuit:
Fig 8: Circuit diagram for band pass filter and amplifier combined
Failures:
We have not got the proper signal output after connecting to the band pass filter circuit.
The output was corrupted with lot of noise.
Summary:
Band pass filter circuit, sensor design

DAY: Monday
We modified the band pass filter by changing the resistors and capacitors.
We designed low pass filter and high pass filters individually and the outputs were verified
by varying input frequencies in the function generator.
By using both the filters we made the band pass filter circuit.
Fig 9: Band pass filter and amplifier circuit with input from the pulse sensor
Fig 10: Output wave form in the DSO corrupted with noise
Failures:
1. Initially we placed one LED and one photo resistor and we took the readings in the
light.
2. We used normal resistance instead of potentiometer.
3. The output waveform corrupted with noise due to loose connections
Modifications:
The connections were changed and then we used new probes.
Finally, the results were satisfactory.
Summary: designed and analysed the band pass filter by giving input from the pulse
sensor and visualized the output form the circuit in the DSO.

We made the connections as per the circuit diagram shown in figure 13 below for coding
the LCD display.
We have installed liquid crystal library in Arduino software for programming LCD.
Fig 13: connections between Arduino board and LCD display
Failures:
Problem with the program (sample program for displaying some data on the screen)
Loose connections: because LCD display pin connections were not soldered.
LCD backlight was not working.
Modifications:
Modified the program
Unable to fix Flickering screen even though we soldered the pins.
Backlight problem was resolved as shown in figure14
