• Real Time Audio signal processing system.

Study the architecture of the ADAU1761 audio Codec and the Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C) interface protocol and use it to communicate with an external chip. Study the Inter-IC Sound (I2S) interface protocol and utilize it to exchange audio data with an external chip. Examine the formats in which audio data is stored and processed. Build a simple digital audio processing application with Xilinx Zedboard as a hardware. Test bench in C and VHDL.

• OLED controller IP for Xilinx Virtex-7 FPGA

Designed OLED controller on Virtex-7 FPGA to communicate with the OLED display using SPI interface, implemented and tested on Zedboard. Designed RTL using VHDL. Tool used for - Vivado 2015.2.

• Implementation of Canny Edge Detection using HLS (High-Level Synthesis) Designed an image processing hardware accelerator using high-level synthesis in C++ and designed IP is tested and verified on System on Chip (Zynq 7000-All Programmable SoC, ARM Cortex A9). Simulated and tested this algorithm in MATLAB for verification process. Developed a Python script to parse the image.

• DTMF based device control.

The main aim of this project is to implement an interfacing system to remotely control electrical appliances using DTMF tone. The system can be used in smart homes for home automation as well as in industries to automate process. This was implemented using programming language Embedded C in AVR Studio. Publication:
