PROTECTION OF ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT USING 3D THERMOGRAPHY AND IMAGE PROCESSINGEklavya Sharma
This paper revolves around a thermal imaging technology that enhance the perception and awareness towards the objects we see around us. Here, we are using this technology for the protection and defect detections of electrical power equipment. Starting from the origin of infrared we will go through the development and research on thermography. Then, it is followed by the real-time 3 dimensional thermography using Matlab and thermal imaging camera. Then the systematic procedures for the temperature measurement thereby detecting the faults in the electrical power equipment using 3D thermography. And then taking the corrective action by guiding the automation software’s according to the temperature signatures of the devices. In addition, this paper presents the outline of the previous researches related to the project.
SMART HOME AUTOMATION USING MOBILE APPLICATIONEklavya Sharma
Our smart home automation kit provides smartphone application based solutions for control &
energy optimization in industry, commercial buildings & homes. The kit requires a Arduino
Uno R3 having ATMega328 microcontroller for processing, Bluetooth module HC-06 is
required to transmit and receive data, relays are required to control the AC loads, ULN2003 IC
is used to drive the relays, an Android smartphone with the Smart Home Automation
application installed is required to control the AC loads fixed in the switch board and a power
supply of 12 V is required to power up the relays and Arduino requires the power supply of 7
V. If the DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw) switches are used then the kit can be made to
work manually as well as remotely.
Furthermore, the system can be improved for the door control, the temperature detection, the
light dimmer control etc. Similarly, the application can be improved for voice recognition. The
Smart Home Automation can be improved for receiving and sending signal through ESP8266
Wi-Fi module and can be controlled through mobile or computer via web.
Three-Axis Auto Stabilizing Video Camera PlatformEklavya Sharma
Basically auto-stabilizing platform consists of platform which is balanced by movement of three servo motors in opposite direction to the movement of the platform. Arduino Uno process the tilt angles obtained from MPU-6050 and give instruction to the respective servo motors to rotate by certain angle depending on its previous position to balance or control the platform. The intent of the platform design is to maintain the platform at an initially selected angle while the support structure orientation changes. The software was written with logic to convert the digital data from the accelerometer and gyroscope to an acceleration and gyro magnitude vector and then converted
in degrees. The InvenSense MPU-6050 sensor contains a 3axis MEMS accelerometer and a 3axis MEMS gyro in a single chip whose outputs are calibrated properly by using KALMAN FILTER
to give the precise angle. The magnitude of the angle was then compared to a predetermined mathematical function to infer the angle of tilt of the platform. The angle of tilt is then converted
to angle of rotation for the servos to adjust their current position and bring the platform in balanced condition. Testing showed the platform to perform as expected. Although some error on the final angle was expected, the magnitude of the error observed indicated the platform design has a high sensitivity to low tolerance mechanical joints (slop). Overall the platform design was validated based on the positional accuracy of the platform given the low quality components used to create it. In other words, the platform performed greater than the sum of its parts.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
