PROJECTS

“Design of low cost data acquisition system for photo-acoustic signal acquisition” (Master’s thesis)

• A low cost micro-controller based data acquisition system was designed to develop compact, portable and wireless imaging and sensing instrument.

“Image guided system for tissue therapy through laser ablation” (Class Project)

• A model for precise, safer, effective and minimally invasive surgeries. A live feed of the operation field is captured and using certain algorithms the tumor is detected and the robotic arm is automated to fire the laser to that location.

“A Compact Dual Band GPS Micro strip Antenna” (Bachelors Thesis)

• Involved designing of precise, reliable and economic GPS. We performed the simulation through HFSS software.

HONORS AND ACTIVITIES

• Won First Place Award for Health Connect Poster competition 2017

• Recipient of Student Travel Grant from SPIE Photonic West 2017.

• Won the Graduate Professional Award 2016 at Wayne State University.

• Attained Wayne State Travel Award 2016.

• Presented two research studies at the SPIE Conference 2016.

• Served as a Vice Chairperson at IEEE Circuits and Systems Society, MJCET.

• Had been a part of Marketing &Publicity and Technical team of Robotics Club MJCET.

• Organized, volunteered and hosted various events at college.

• Participated in Analog Design contest organized by Texas Instruments and successfully completed the Circuit Design Challenge.

• Presented 4 technical papers at IEEE National Level competition and WON.

• Won Second prize in Gadget exhibition organized by IEEE MJCET at ADSOPHOS 2014

• Participated and won First prize in Circuitrix at ADSOPHOS 2013

• Participated in Debates, Extempore, Quiz, Drama, Sports and various other Literary and Cultural activities.
