Work Experience

Graduate Research Assistant, University of Alabama in Huntsville (Fall’11 – ’13)

Vision-Guided Control for Autonomous Vehicles

Developed a novel algorithm for visual servoing that overcomes drawbacks of standard

visual servoing methods such as PBVS and IBVS

My responsibilities were developing the algorithm in Matlab, running simulations in

Simulink and testing it on commercial miniROV system (SeaBotix LBV150-4)

Gained experience in conducting research in Robotics/Control

Project-based training in CAD Design, FEA and Project Management at CADD Centre (2009-2010)

2D drafting in AutoCAD along with geometric dimensioning and tolerancing

3D component design and assembly of mechanical devices such as Single Plate Clutch, Oil

Bearing and Engine Blower in Pro/Engineer and CATIA

Thermal and Structural analysis of mechanical components in ANSYS

Managed projects in Primavera software & course training in Project Planning & Management

Relevant Projects in UAH

Design of bicycle frame in SolidWorks and structural analysis in Nastran/Patran

Undergraduate Thesis

Designed an economical Copy Lathe machine for W ood Turning

Used low cost single-edge cutting tool along with a template instead of the conventional

and expensive form tool used in turning machines

Gained excellent team -work skills and hands-on machining and tooling experience
