Academic Projects:
Developed an embedded control system for hybrid vehicle system using MATLAB Stateflow model-based system design approach.
Implemented the I-Guide using path planning algorithms with obstacle avoidance along with landmark detections.
Designed a sensor circuit for a 4WD line mapping robot using MSP430 microcontroller.
Designed a Vehicle Control System and conducted feasibility study. The unreliability of the subsystems was calculated using Stochastic Petri Net Package and tested using Generalized Stochastic Petri Nets.
Designed a security system with a temperature sensor circuit to detect fire, wall breakers to detect intrusion, and a pair of IR emitter and detector to check for theft. All the sensor outputs are given to the 8051 microcontroller which is programmed to automatically dial a mobile in case of an emergency.
Designed a Zigbee based self-healing WSN to switch on/off the appliances at distant places using 8051 microcontroller.Testing and programming of zigbee was done using XCTU.
