• UVS Certification Program from the University of Texas at Arlington
• Green Belt Certified in Lean Six Sigma (VarSigma, Delhi) EXPERIENCE
Automation Specialist – Texas Automation Systems October 2019 to Present
• Commissioned the Green Field Sites (SWD) for the client NGL Water Solutions in which the pumps are controlled using CompactLogix Allen Bradley Controller to inject water to either a Wellhead or is exchanged with other sites using transfer pumps
• While commissioning the site, the flow transmitters are controlled either using RS485 communication by ProSoft MBS4 and MBTCP or using HART Concentrator Systems by Moore Industries. Pressure and Level Transmitters are controlled by RS485 Communication using Pactware
Graduate Research Assistant – Data Network & Controls Lab (UT Arlington) June 2018 to June 2019
• Robot Networking System - Six XBee-Pro 900 HP Modules configured using XCTU, each mounted on Lego EV3 programmed using RobotC language. Arduino UNO is used for performing I2C communication between the Lego(s) so that with the help of HiTechnic EV3 Color, Gyro and Infrared Sensors the location can be found for each robot and based on that a Pixel Map is created using Red
& Blue colors. Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Avoidance (CSMA/CA) protocol is used for collision avoidance Intern – Proxbotics Creation Technologies Pvt Ltd, Jaipur, India February 2017 to July 2017
• Robotics: Built an Electronic Voting Machine using Raspberry Pi 3, Model B Microcontroller and implemented IOT Applications consists of controlling the room lights, fans based on the no. of persons present at the time of casting vote. A login-based system was built which include RFID Authorization, Username, and Password along with their captcha code. For Waste Management, Smart Dustbin was used which detect if the bin is empty or full using Ultrasonic Transmitter and Receiver ACADEMIC PROJECTS
SWDs Site Layout Design – [Ignition 8.0] April 2020 to July 2020
• Based on the P&I Drawing of the Site Layout, designed the vision client project for the Local HMI. Created a perspective project for accessing it remotely for the local operators and higher management using SCADA Network
• The project consists of Alarm Notification Pipelines for reporting alarms to the operators, reporting and trend viewer to analyze the sales on the monthly basis. The gateway server was leased to monitor and control the sites remotely WildThumper/APM Rover Unmanned Ground Vehicle – [Teensyduino Microcontroller] January 2019 to May 2019
• Designed a Ground Vehicle capable of demonstrating the techniques like Localization, Path Planning, Computer Vision, and Sensor Fusion using GPS (here), Pixhawk 2.1, Camera, LiDAR, and Sonar.
• The Motor has encoders in it for the purpose of dead reckoning and are controlled by H-Bridge and Motor Controller.
• The obstacle avoidance is established using a catkin package with the help of ROS and Simulink Sorting of Boxes and Batching of different Color Doses – [Allen Bradley MicroLogix 1400 Controller] January 2019 to March 2019
• The color batches were prepared using Factory I/O and the ladder logic was created using RSLogix 500 and RSLinx Classic for different color dosages made out from Red, Green and Blue colors. The dosages batched in small and big boxes and sent for sorting
• The boxes were sorted based on height and sent to their respective repositories using an alternate logic from the rotating table. These boxes were then counted, and final packaging is done Door Simulation Project – [Allen Bradley MicroLogix 1000 Controller] March 2019 to April 2019
• The door was operated by Open and Close button with the help of Limit Switches and a Motor present at the door. The stop button was there to stop the operation in between whenever it was pressed. The indicators were present to represent the state of the button pressed such as Open, Shut, or Ajar using Ladder Logic in RSLogix 500 for AB MicroLogix 1000 and was verified in LogixPro
