ACADEMIC PROJECTS

Real-Time Operating System(RTOS) August 2017 – October 2017

• Designed a Co-operative and Pre-emptive RTOS on C using ARM Cortex M4F microcontroller.

• Programmed actual kernel functions like yield, wait, post, sleep from scratch.

• Programmed and used interrupt service routines for PendSV and SVC exceptions for task switching in RTOS. Indoor Location Finder October 2017-December 2017

• Designed a C code to determine the location of an object/person inside of a closed room by interfacing ultrasonic sensors and RF modules to an ARM Cortex M4F controller.

• Designed a C code and circuit of an Analog Front-End device with an attached microphone which receives ultrasonic pulses at regular intervals and helps to determine its location in a room. Cache Controller Code October 2017-December 2017

• Designed a C code to mimic the functionality of a 64kB cache controller.

• Applied the cache read and write functions on a Jacobi transformation code.

• Changed the burst length, number of ways and write back strategies(total of 60 combinations) to find the best cache architecture for a specific piece of code.

Bluetooth Controlled Multiplexer June 2017- July 2017

• Designed a system to control a 32:1 multiplexer by switching its select lines using a Adafruit Feather microcontroller with BLE(Bluetooth Low Energy).

• Programmed to run its C code by giving commands from the Bluefruit Connect App installed in a smartphone.

• Displayed the voltages from each of the 32 inputs of the multiplexer in real time on the serial monitor and LCD. Low Cost Multimeter January 2017- May 2017

• Developed the circuit and C code of a low cost (<$1) LCR meter or multimeter commonly used in electronic labs.

• Programmed interrupt-enabled timers to measure the capacitance, inductance and resistance of the components. TIC-TAC-TOE Game June 2017- July 2017

• Designed a graphic-based “Tic-Tac-Toe” game on Python using object-oriented programming concepts and graphic libraries.

Line &Edge follower Robots December 2013- January 2014

• Programmed Atmega16 the microcontroller using C language on AVR studio to develop the line -follower and edge- follower robots.

• Utilized infra-red(IR) transmitters and receivers to detect obstacles and prevent damage of the robot. CERTIFICATIONS
