ACADEMIC PROJECTS

Allen Bradley PLC Programming: Design of Automated System for Packet Sorter

System

- Designed an automation system which senses weight of the load and

classifies accordingly.

- System comprised of conveyor run by AC MOTOR, manometer for

calibration of liquid level and photo-electric sensors.

- Used the Bernoulli's Principle of Water Displacement under weight for

assessing the under and over weight packets.

- Controlled the system through PLC program designed in RSLOGIX from

Host-PC and successfully segregated the packets.

Embedded System MEDICAL ROBOTICS: Design of Vascular Compression System to

control Blood Flow in the Leg

- Designed an adjustable Pneumatic Compression Stocking to supply

patient with the desired level of compression.

- Interfaced the STOCKING with TI MSP430 and CC2500 MICRO-CONTROLLERS

for regulating the PRESSURE.

- Programmed the CONTROLLER in C/C++ to set the Data Baud Rate, Pin

Accessibility and Data Read/Write functions.

- Simulated and regulated the pressure with an array of FORCE SENSORS on

the ankle using EMBEDDED LINK IDE CC.

Distributed Control Systems (DCS) Design : MOBILE ROBOT Design and Path

Tracking

- Designed and assembled a Front Wheel Drive Mobile Robot for the

desired application.

- Designed the kinematics and controller for an unmanned vehicle in REAL

TIME WORSHOP, SIMULINK and C/C++.
