4. GRADUATE PROJECT
 REAL TIME WIRELESS SPEECH RECOGNITION USING DSP FOR ROBOTICS
• CYPRESS CYWM6945USB wireless module was used for sending and receiving
instructions wirelessly. Speech coding was done in MATLAB and C language for the
DSK TMS320C6713. The robot movement was done on some specific commands given
by a specific user whose voice was already stored in database. The system was also
equipped with sharp IR sensors to avoid collision. An IP based wireless camera was also
present on board providing the user the capability of remote vision.
MASTER THESIS TOPIC
 LONGITUDINAL CRACK DETECTION IN STEEL SLABS USING
CONVOLUTIONAL NEURAL NETWORKS
• The aim of the research was to make an automated system to identify potential cracks
(longitudinal) in steel slabs in order for the manufacturer to rectify it before final
production.
