RESEARCH

PROJECTS

CAN Controller Network - C

(Fall 2010)

. Designed two nodes CAN network with two Microchip PIC18F458

microcontrollers and two CAN transceivers.

. Programmed the controllers in C, developed different components and

integrated the software.

. Performed A/D conversion and calibrations on the inputs from photo

resistor, temperature and proximity sensors and inverse conversion for

the output peripherals - buzzer, light bulb and LCD.

. Packaged and parsed messages to exchange data between the nodes.

Indoor Wireless Locator - LabView and C

(Winter 2010)

. Designed five nodes wireless network to determine the position of a

blind node inside a building with the help of three reference nodes

and one coordinator node.

. Assisted in designing circuit and PCB in Altium and soldered

components on the developed PCBs.

. Programmed Jennic chips (JN5139 and JN5148) in C to transmit data

between nodes using ZigBee protocol.

. Created LabView application which collected data from the coordinator

node into computer, analyzed the signals, and determined the position

of the node along a straight path.

Handwriting Analysis Application - Lab View

(Fall 2009)

. Developed a LabView application to analyze the handwriting of

Huntington patients.

. Parsed data and added filters it to remove signal noise from data

collected on a WACOM tablet.
