Are you in touch with these research institues directly?
Nope Just with UW
Is there any research done in India that could help you?
Haven’t seen any, but there is something in India which can really help, it’s called ‘Jugaad’
From Wikipedia:
“Jugaad” is also colloquial Hindi word that can mean an innovative fix,often pejoratively used for solutions that bend rules, or a resource that can be used as such or a person who can solve a vexatious issue. It is used as much for enterprising street mechanics as for political fixers. In essence, though it is a tribute to native genius, and lateral thinking.
