Projects
August 2019 -Dec 2019 Embedded Real-Time Operating System based Wheelchair
• The Wheelchair had RTOS as its core Operating System and was controlled by a joystick for the movement
• An ultrasonic sensor functioned as a backup obstacle avoidance system for the wheelchair
• Implementation of the system was achieved using FreeRTOS to schedule the tasks in order to work in real-time Jan 2019 – May 2019
Mind and Muscle Controlled Robot
• The robot car was controlled using the user's mind waves and electrical signal generated by the muscle of the upper limbs.
• Interfaced the Arduino board with the Mind wave headset and the Electromyographic sensor.
• Programmed using MATLAB the data sets taken from the sensor and achieved 100% test accuracy using Fine Tree classification algorithm.
Aug 2018- Dec 2018
Obstacle Avoidance Robot
• The robot stopped moving as soon as it detected obstacle on its path using ultrasonic sensor and changed is route.
