PROJECTS

Navigation System for Visually Impaired: 2017

A ‘Navigation System for Visually Impaired’ was developed using new hardware software technology Raspberry Pi processor. The coding was done in Python, with the aid of Raspbian software. Images were captured through a USB camera interfaced with the board. After applying image processing algorithms, appropriate signals were sent to the user. Also, in the event of failure, an ultrasonic distance measurement mechanism provided user with probable obstacles in his path.

Energy Minimization for Real Time Applications on Multiprocessor Platforms: 2016

We aimed to combat energy wastage problem in multiprocessor systems for real-time applications while tolerating transient faults. For the same purpose we used the checkpointing algorithm to study energy minimization problem on multiprocessors for real-time applications while tolerating K transient faults. We presented two algorithm schemes first, optimal checkpointing algorithm for minimizing worst case latency and then we present a fault tolerant task allocation scheme to achieve energy minimization.

Network Backbone Formation Using Wireless Sensor Network Communication Module 2015

Worked in a team of 3 to develop an algorithm for creating a parent child sensor network on sensor nodes. We coded an algorithm in nesC over TinyOS and implemented in MTM CM5000 MSP sensor node. The whole procedure inculcated of sending and receiving informatory packets in the form of digital signal. The project was later enhanced as a device for communication of multimedia platforms

Gesture Controlled Robotic Arm: 2014

A ‘Gesture Controlled Robotic Arm’ was developed using a wired module of 3 axis NXP accelerometer interfaced with microcontroller Atmega 32 (Member of AVR Atmel Series of microcontrollers). The accelerometer module was attached to the hand glove, whose mere motion provided the control of the robotic arm that was interfaced with the embedded system. The project gave exposure to analyze and study concepts of data acquisition, controlling motors by programming the analog values of PWM motors, communication.
