Experience Bharat Electronics Limited – India, INTERNSHIP (Jan `13 - May `13)
Autonomous Car Parking.
 Design and built a robotic RC car that can identify the car space and park itself using 8051.
 The RC car checks for sufficient space by making use of UV sensors and sends a feedback.
 Intelligently identifies the space of the parking bay and parks the car parallel automatically.
 Embedded Microcontroller and DC motor driver used to process the sensor signal and control
the wheels of car smartly and efficiently and Ad – hoc testing was implemented to debug errors.
Western Michigan University, Kalamazoo, MI
Student Data Technician, Department of Psychology WMU. (Dec `14 – April `15)
 Maintenance of Student Data on Real time basis.
 Built a Webpage for student to access their score individually using HTML and CSS.
Projects
 Query Database for important information for both student and trainer.
 Web – validation was done frequently using W3-C in order to work webpage efficiently.
Remotely viewable Heart Rate of a patient and tracking ambulance using GSM and
GPS Module -Embedded systems: Independent Research (Jan ` 14 – April `14)
 Monitoring the Patient health (Heart Rate) instantaneously using the Heartbeat sensor designed using
Keil Embedded Development Tool.
 Tracking the Ambulance using GPS, which is carrying the patient and communicating to the authorized
person in the hospital using GSM system (PuTTY Emulator Tool).
 Parameters sent are heartbeat rate, humidity and temperature.
 The micro – controlled was coded using embedded C and hooked together to a complete build module.
Vehicle Control System Implementation Using CAN protocol (Jun `14 – Dec `14)
 A typical drive system with the control unit has electronic fuel injection system, automatic
transmission systems, antilock braking system (ABS), airbag systems etc.
 Generally, a vehicle was built with an Analog driver-vehicle interface for indicating various vehicle
status like speed, fuel level, Engine temperature etc.,
 This project addresses the development and implementation of a digital driving system for a semi-
autonomous vehicle to improve the driver-vehicle interface.
 It uses an ARM based data acquisition system that uses ADC to bring all control data from Analog to
digital format and visualize through LCD.
 The communication module used in this project is embedded networking by CAN which has efficient
data transfer. It also takes feedback of vehicle conditions like Vehicle speed, Engine temperature etc.,
and controlled by main controller and Ad – hoc testing was done to find the fault in the system.
 Additionally, this unit equipped with GSM which communicates to the owner during emergency
situations.

2. Achievement
Designing and implementing an IEEE single precision floating point unit: (May `14 – June ` 14)
 In this project we worked in a team of two to design develop and implement an IEEE Floating point
adder and sub tractor circuit that can either carry out add or subtract and complies with the IEEE
single precision floating point format.
 The standard specifies a 32- bit word, with the first bit as the sign bit, the next eight bits are the
exponent bits and the last 23 bits are the fraction. The Design Coding also included coding for the
exceptional or special cases in the IEEE single precision floating point format and also normalization of
operands were done if required.
 The whole system was implemented on the FPGA (Nexys3) and the correctness of the operation was
measured. The RTL design coding was done using VHDL. The challenging part of the design was to
effectively use the available features in the board to implement the design in Hardware.
Wireless Sensor Network Based Patient Monitoring System: (Sept `14 – Dec `14)
 Remotely monitoring physical parameters like ECG, EMG signals using BiTalino Board.
 These signals are transmitted wirelessly using Bluetooth module to the PC.
 3-Axis accelerometer was used to monitor the patient body moments wirelessly.
 Web server page was created for acquisition of these bio signals.
Design and Implementing Black Jack Game on Nexyx3 FPGA Board: (April `14 – May `14)
 The main objective of this project was to implement, design, simulate and demonstrate a Blackja ck
game model using the Nexys3 Board.
 Involved designing De-bouncer Module was used to handle the input signals and generates an
output high signal with the duration of 1 clock cycle (20 ns). To prevent de-bounce effect in the switch
and button this module was used.
 Random Generator Module was implemented in this module basically to generate a sequence of
random numbers in the range of (1 up to 15). The random number was generated using the LFSR
technique.
 A linear feedback shifts register (LFSR) is a shift register whose input bit is a linear function of its
previous state. This random number was then sent to the FSM module to be further processed and
then used as a card
 D- Flip Flop module was integrated inside of the Random generator module to keep track of the 4 bit
random number being processed.
 State Transition module contains all the state transitions and combinational logic, which basically
controls the sequence of the game. It contains a total of 5 processes all working concurrently.
 Every clock cycle it looks for the next state, which is controlled by the input signals. This module also
keeps track of the current scores for the player and the dealer as well as the history of the cards,
which were already used to prevent selecting them again. The functionality of this module will be
reflected in the simulations very clearly.
FIR Filter Design Exponential Window (Digital Signal Processing): (Jan `14 – April `14)
 Fourier series method with windowing is the most straightforward technique to design FIR filters and
involves a minimal amount of computation compared to the optimization methods.
 Exponential Window was designed (Zero order Bessel function of first kind used for Kaiser window).
Filter Design Equation was designed for the proposed window and comparison was made between FIR
Filter Design by Kaiser and Exponential Window.
 GUIs are used to present the output and to be more accurate and specific.
WMU Engineering & Applied Sciences:
 Grading Assistant for Undergraduate course Digital design, Computer Architecture.
 Mentoring Undergraduate students in the completion of their Senior Design Project.
 Active participant in various technical events such as workshops or symposium.
 Member of Sun-seeker Solar Car Project at WMU involved in designing the power inverter for the car and
we stood first place in the race during summer 2014.
