Women Empowerment by Technology Supported Manufacturing of Beads from Holy Basil
In this article, we demonstrate how intervention using basic technology has improved the manufacturing of the beads from the stems of Holy Basil (Tulasi). This has helped the convenience, productivity and income of those women in the villages who typically make the beads in the Brij area (Mathura, Brindavan and nearby districts) of Rajasthan state in India. Later, it was experimented with a new stem holder and a contactless sensor to improve the vibration of the device and the inconvenience of replacing the mechanical switch frequently. As a result, there is overall improvement in the performance of the device.
