Worked on project 'Intelligent Robotic Grasping' at SmartFactory OWL using an open source project to train convolutional neural networks on 3-D CAD models of thousands of objects to predict most robust grasps to pick-up a given object. Integrated an open source software, RGB-D image processing and collaborative industrial robot control for the project.Worked hands-on on industry 4.0 topics: IIoT, IT security, plug and play modules, assistance systems using demonstrations in… Show more Worked on project 'Intelligent Robotic Grasping' at SmartFactory OWL using an open source project to train convolutional neural networks on 3-D CAD models of thousands of objects to predict most robust grasps to pick-up a given object.

Developed a modified experimental procedure from first principles to perform the 'pulley-belt' experiment for determining co-efficient of friction. The modified procedure gives results that can be verified on the basis of experimental variables, which earlier could only be calculated from the capstan equation.Studied two approaches to Design of Experiments: Factorial Design & Taguchi method and conducted analyses using the same for several experiments to identify the factors that… Show more Developed a modified experimental procedure from first principles to perform the 'pulley-belt' experiment for determining co-efficient of friction.
