During my tenure as Research Assistant at Department of Electronic Systems Engineering(DESE), IISc, I was involved in the development of various Internet of Things(IoT) applications.1) Speech and gesture Recognition Based Robot Controlling System. Designed a wireless interface between Intel RealSense Speech recognition engine and ROS controller of the Intel Edison in C language. The ROS controller in-turn controlled the iClebo Kobuki. This was demonstrated at Intel India Academic Forum - 2015, New Delhi.2) Developed a flight tracking system which crowd sourced the flight data such as squawk, speed, altitude, location etc. using Software Defined Radio(SDR) and deployed it in CK pura and CS pura, two villages of India. Also used MySQL database API to store the data locally when there is any resource constraints.3) Designed and developed IoT based Water Monitoring system using Raspberry Pi 3 and Python for measuring and monitoring water flow from a pump set deployable in resource constrained scenarios. Interfaced a RTC module and USB Wingle to send the data to cloud via internet. 4) Developed a IoT prototype in Python language by interfacing RGB LED to Intel Edison via I2C and controlled it using Android. This was demonstrated at Pan India Event, Intel Innovation Festival - 2016.5) Evaluated different IoT platforms such as Kaa IoT and Kura, and built a Proof of Concept using Kaa over Intel Edison.6) Evaluated the energy consumption of Intel Edison and profiled the energy consumption for different applications using INA219 sensor. 7) Conducted hands-on workshop about Intel Edison module for the fifty chosen student of 'Intel Singapore Invent50 Competition' at Intel Corporation, Singapore. 8) Conducted boot-camps on “Internet of Things and Data Analytics” at educational institutions across various parts of India including Ahmedabad, Bhubaneshwar, Pune, Aurangabad and Bangalore

Worked with Electronics Engineers Group(EEG) to develop an Embedded system for 'Frequency Generation and display matrix for Steady State Visually Evoked Potential' which is a part of Brain Computer Interface (BCI) experiment. Developed an algorithm for frequency calibration and implemented it in Atmel controller using assembly language. Routing of the signal was done by programming Xilinx Cool Runner -II CPLD in VHDL language. Carried out the testing of designed hardware and software modules.
