Project Experience

> Project: Collision Identification and Avoidance Using UWB based RADAR

Course: Micro-computer based control System Design, Winter 09

Hardware/Software: UWB Radar, Vector CANalyzer, MATLAB/Simulink, xPC

Target

. Designed and simulated communication protocol for UWB macom sensor

in xPC Target

. Identified the position of various objects by taking range,

bearing, velocity and yaw rate

. Categorized the objects as soft and hard by taking SNR into

consideration and checked repeatedly to ensure the nature of the

object

. The inbuilt CAN terminal of the macom sensor is used for

communication with 16bit dsPIC microcontroller

. Developed accurate positioning algorithms using State flow and

designed a control system model to allow the

robot to change the orientation according to the position of the

obstacle

. Simulation of the entire system is done using MATLAB/Simulink (xPC

LM384, Code warrior, Assembly, Embedded C

. Designed a Musical Keyboard on HCS12 Microcontroller that includes

an amplifier circuit, Digital and Analog converter and a LCD display

module

. Designed an amplifier circuit using LM384 chip to amplify the

signals obtained from the Digital to Analog converter (AD558JNZ

chip) and are sent to the speaker

. Developed a C code and an assembly code and tested it on the HCS12

Board

> Edge Detection using Sobel Algorithm

Course:FPGA based Embedded System, Winter 2009

Hardware/Software: DE2 Camera, VGA monitor, VHDL, Altera's
