This is the first time an Indian Company has won this award. The Advanced Telematics product was designed by Ticket Design (ID) while electronics design and manufacturing was done by Tata Motors ltd. This device is an advanced vehicle tracking system launched by Tata Motors in their Novus Heavy duty trucks. An independent panel of three industrial design experts performed judging of the entries. Evaluation of the entries was based on four criteria: appearance, human factors, innovation and technical merits.

Other winners in the competition include iPod Alarm Clock, Kitchen Aid, Bosch, Maytag, and Sharp for their respective products.
