Academic Projects
- Solar off-grid Sustainable House; Western Sydney University, NSW,
Building a prototype of a solar house with the latest energy-saving technologies., Leading the electrical department with ahead-of-schedule tasks., Using the latest communication technologies, we stay connected in the difficult times of COVID-19., Analysing the issues and deriving proper conclusions using advanced techniques., Ability to work in teams and leadership quality., Excited at taking challenges and giving satisfactory results., Reference:https://westernsydney.edu.au/schools/soedbe/engagement/sustainable_house.
- Smart Assistant System, Sal College of Engineering, India,
We built up a wheelchair system that empowers the handicapped patient to move their wheelchair autonomously with their own with the help of eye movements, in the real-time application. We have used an eye detection camera and a motorised wheelchair controlled by a Raspberry Pi.
- Smartphone-Based Assistant System for Specially Abled Patients, VPMP Polytechnic, India,
This project increases the ease of mobility for disabled/injured people. We have resolved the disabled problems by implementing voice control, and accelerometer-based interfacing with the wheelchair. In this project, the wheelchair has been modified so the motions of the wheelchair are controlled by the instructions of the user. It also provides an opportunity for visually or physically disabled persons to move from one place to another. Intelligent assistant system serves as a boon for those who have lost their mobility.
