Research Student
May 2013 to December 2013 University of North Carolina at Charlotte - Charlotte, NC

Real-time Signal Processing based on Dynamic Time Warping ·
Embedded Networking for Body Area Networks and wearable computing ·
MAC protocol, Gait Analysis, Pattern Recognition, Low-power

Development of a low-power wireless module which is applied for gait analysis. A rotation based routing protocol is implemented amongst on-body sensors to reduce the overall power consumption of the system for accumulating the motion data. Dynamic time Warping algorithm is applied as a feature classification technique to differentiate between human movements. An offline analysis is performed to corroborate the hypothesis and then an on-chip implementation is done for deployment.

Tools: Arduino programming, NRF24l01+, Java, MATLAB

Development Engineer
July 2010 to July 2011 Sciaky Automations - Pune, Maharashtra

Involved in development of an extensive mechatronic design for a complete automatic assembly of an electric switch. Each electrical toggle switch involves plastic molded parts for the push-press operation and another part forming the base with connectors.
The complete task was divided into two stand-alone systems controlled by PLC for assembling each of the two above mentioned parts, which later were interfaced with each other.

Tools: PLC, pneumatic actuators, electronic circuit design, ladder programming, optical sensors

Academic Projects

Android Theft Protector Application: Developed an android application which could be used for theft detection of mobile devices. The android app utilizes Bluetooth and GPS APIs provided by android environment to keep a track of devices. Each android device holds a unique identifier and contains a SQLite database storing location of the devices in its vicinity. Upon reception of query message for a particular ID the device then forwards the last known geographical coordinates of the device corresponding to it.Tools: Android SDK, ADB, and Java.
16 Bit RISC Processor using VHDL: Created a fully synthesizable VHDL model of a 16-bit RISC processor with Pipelining and Interrupt handling features. It involved designing of Registers, ALU, Instruction memory, Data memory, Scratch pad memory and Instruction Set Architecture of 27 instructions with 4 addressing modes using VHDL. These modules were designed and simulated separately and then combined using the structural modeling in VHDL. Instruction pipelining was successfully implemented in the processor with four pipelined stages. Tools: VHDL, ModelSim.
Parametric Cache Simulator Design: Designed and implemented a parametric cache simulator and used it to design data caches. The simulator modeled a memory hierarchy with data and victim cache. It used parameters like date cache size, associativity, block size, write policy, victim cache size are obtained from user and provided the L1 and victim cache read and write misses. Tools: C
Measuring the tardiness of real-time video workload under LITMUS-RT: Project involved the patching of the Linux with LITMUS-RT and using shell and python scripts to measure the average tardiness of the video application. These tardiness measurements are used to compare the performance of the real time GSN EDF scheduler algorithm to that of the Linux CFS scheduler for soft real-time video applications. Tools: C, Linux, Qemu, LITMUS-RT, Shell, Python.
Movement Detection and Calorie measurement: Detected 5 set of movements including sitting, standing, walking, running and sleeping using Micaz motes .Used these detected data to determine the calories burnt in these positions or movements performed. Tools: Tinyos, NesC
Device Driver Development: Development for Embedded Linux on ARM architecture. Developed modules for Linux based character-device driver for communication on UART. The driver was emulated using QEMU emulator for a Bare-metal ARM processor and is a loadable kernel module. The driver is capable of echoing the received character and if the character is a letter it converts it to uppercase and displays it on the screen. Tools: C, Linux kernel, Qemu.
Pseudo Physics Simulator: Designed a pseudo physics simulator on the Renesas RX62N board using the on board accelerometer. Used the numerical methods to display a ball rolling around the boundaries of a cone on the LCD and potentiometer to change the speed of the ball. Tools: C, HEW.
Automated partial electric switch assembly (Undergraduate project): Developed a mechatronic system for a company sponsored project for the final year of undergraduate studies. Involved hands on experience on electronic circuits, pneumatic actuators and Programmable Logic Controller (PLC). The software part of the system was developed using ladder programming for a Siemens PLC with extendable 64 I/O pins. Tools: Ladder Programming, Siemens IDE.
