PROJECT EXPERIENCE
VISUAL ODOMETRY MAY 2019
• Estimated the 3D motion of a moving camera and provided as output a plot of the trajectory of the camera.
PATH PLANNING USING DIJKSTRA AND A-STAR ALGORITHM APRIL 2019
• Simulated path planning and obstacle avoidance algorithms (Dijkstra and Astar) in python for a point/rigid robot put inside a given workspace consisting of different obstacles.
• Used the same algorithms and implemented it on a differential drive robot (turtle bot) and simulated it in V-rep.
LUKAS KANADE TEMPLATE TRACKER
• Recreated the Lukas Kanade template tracking algorithm for tracking a section of a video by continuously drawing a bounding box over that region for the entire video sequence.
COLOR SEGMENTATION USING GMM AND EM MARCH 2019
• Performed detection of underwater buoys (red, green and yellow) using color segmentation.
• Color segmentation was performed using Gaussian Mixture Models and Expectation Maximization technique.
LANE DETECTION AND TURN PREDICTION MARCH 2019
• Programmed using Python and OpenCV an efficient lane detection algorithm that is used extensively in self driving cars. The algorithm can also predict when turns occur.
8-PUZZLE PROBLEM FEB 2019
• Solved the 8-puzzle problem by writing an optimal algorithm in python based on BFS algorithm.
DETECTION AND TRACKING OF AR TAG FEB 2019
• Detected a fiducial marker (AR TAG) from a given video sequence, extracted it and superimposed a given image on the marker using Homography. Projected a 3D AR cube on the superimposed image.
DESIGN OF LQR AND LQG CONTROLLER DEC 2018
• Designed an LQR and LQG controller for given non-linear Gantry crane system around an equilibrium point on MATLAB. Checked for controllability and observability of the given system designed a Luenberger observer for the same.
BALL BALANCING ROBOT APRIL 2018
• Implemented PID control of dynamically stable robot that performs omnidirectional motion and programmed it with the help of ROS framework and visualized it on Rviz.
• Published a research paper on this project titled “Closed Loop Control of Unstable Omnidirectional Assisting System” at Microsoft’s I2CT Conference, 2018. The paper won best paper award at NSCFET 2018.
CO-CURRICULAR/INTERNSHIP EXPERIENCE
PARTICIPANT IN NASA SWARMATHON COMPETITION MAY 2019
• Worked on programming the pick-up and obstacle controller for robots used in NASA swarmathon competition.
Internship at Bhabha Atomic Research Centre Mumbai, India
PYTHON BASED GUI FOR CONTROLLING SURGICAL TOOL DEC 2016 - JAN 2017
• Successfully completed the task of designing a python-based GUI for controlling a surgical tool using a proprietary 8051 based micro-controller that is controlled by a master user.
• Performed successful serial communication between the master(user) and slave (surgical tool). The python-based GUI acted as a mode of giving input to the surgical tool which was interfaced to the C8051F12x micro-controller.
