Academic Projects

Application of RTOS to build an Autonomous Unmanned Vehicle using ARM M4F: The goal of this project is to apply the RTOS to the problem of controlling a small model of an autonomous vehicle, providing remote control, sensing of embedded roadway magnets using hall effect sensor, open loop control of the vehicle, support for intersection detection and control, and limited experiments with radar modules for collision avoidance.

Design of a Preemptive and Cooperative Real-time Operating System on Cortex ARM M4F processor: The objective was to design a simple RTOS for an ARM M4F based controller that implements a co-operative and preemptive RTOS with support for semaphores, priority inheritance, system timers and Linux shell commands.

Bidirectional Communication System using ARM Microcontroller: Using RS-485 protocol built a node capable of peer-to-peer bidirectional communication operation. Polling, Acknowledgements and retransmission done.

Design of TCP/IP Stack and Internet of Things using ARM M4F microcontroller: Implemented TCP/IP state machine for microcontroller. It supported ARP, ICMP and UDP protocols. Acted as node by initially responding to the ping request and then providing temperature and humidity data collected from sensors in the form of UDP packets.

Design of an SDRAM Controller: Designed a 16M*4b SDRAM controller interfacing with the 80386DX Microprocessor having only asynchronous memory support. Designed a complete controller solution including state machine, row, column, and bank signal generation, data masking, data flow, ready logic, and refresh support.

Setup of a secure Web Proxy Server: Communication between Client and Server using Python programming. Used HTTP protocol using UDP for communication. Used concepts of caching, socket programming and multi-threading.

Design and Development of Hot Plate using 8051: Used the microcontroller 8051 to automate the working of a Hot plate. Used LM 35 as heat sensor and Relays to control the power supply.
