About Umer Farooq

Ever since I was a little kid, Computers were always my passion. Playing Games, Reading programming books, Experimenting with modifying OS Files to change the functionality of the OS, and dreaming of having my own company - all started before even I was in 2nd grade. My dream allowed me to start my professional career in a software house when I was only in 9th Grade. There I learned about Game Development, Web Development, and 3D Modelling. That was the point where I knew that the purpose of my life was something more than to find jobs after completing my education.I love to compete and win. I have participated in many national and international events throughout my life. I won computer science events while being a Biology student. I participated in many international events like ABU Robocon, First Lego League (FLL), First Global League (FGL) both as a student and a mentor. Teaching and Mentoring have always been my passion. So far, I have delivered more than 100+ workshops.I always dreamt of having my own company. I have failed many times. I have made many mistakes in my life. Currently, I am the co-founder of Robominors, Technology Spirits. Robominors is a Robotic Academy where we teach kids about Robotics, Programming, Web Development, IoT, etc. The idea behind Robominors is very close to my heart as it reminds me of my early childhood and how my father inspired and motivated me to be where I am today.In 2017, Technology Spirits was founded, providing state-of-the-art bespoke Industrial solutions that include Smart Security Surveillance Solutions, Biometric Access Control Solutions, Embedded Solutions, Energy Management Solutions, Battery Management Solutions, Data Visualizations, and Human-Computer Interfaces, Web Solutions, Cloud and Mobile Applications. In 2020, Technology Spirits and MRS Electronics came together to form MRS Technologies. Together, We are over 300+ employees and help our customers across the globe with man services.My expertise:Full Stack Developer (.NET, React, NodeJS) | Embedded System Developer (NXP, Lattice, Xilinx, PIC, ESP, etc.) | AWS Cloud (GCP, Azure, and AWS) | Computer Vision (OpenCV) | Machine Learning (Tensorflow, Caffe) | Solution Architect (Cloud-based Web/Mobile Products) | QT based Development | Motivational Speak | Career CounselorI am extremely techie with hands-on experience in Embedded systems, ML/AI, Web, and Mobile App Development while proficient in Cloud Solution Architecture.

    Chief Technology Officer
    Technology Spirits Oct 2019 - Present
    Islamabad, Ict, Pk
    Our History:- In 2017, the company started with an in-house product called "SecureEye". The idea was to turn normal traditional IP cameras into SMART cameras. We develop a hardware solution that utilizes the power of Machine Learning to detect intruders (Person/Car) in real-time. This was done on Android Streamer boxes and the complete solution cost under 5000 rupees. Each box was able to process 4 IP cameras in parallel, while the user was able to access the videos, Alarm alerts from anywhere in the world. The smart recording technology allowed to store months of data in the boxes as it only recorded meaningful videos with some kind of events. The product was purchased by NayaTel in 2018. The product is sold under the name "NayaTel Smart NWatch".- The company developed a "Smart Umbrella System" for a European client which had various sensors installed to detect different weather and ambient conditions. These umbrellas were similar to those that are installed in Saudi Arabia. People under the umbrella could find internet connectivity.- The company developed an Over an Air Update (OTA) solution for various microcontrollers to the European clients.- We developed an in-house Biometric Face and Palm Recognition system which was purchased by a Korean client with expertise in camera systems. The system was able to identify the face under 200 ms. The device has been successfully deployed in Korea.- We also developed a Real-Time FPGA-based De-hazing and Night Compensation Algorithm that was also successfully deployed on a Lattice-based FPGA system on a custom-developed IP Camera (1080p). All the modules were written from scratch due to some constraints of the project.- Developed an Energy Management System for a European client. This was deployed on a Linux-based system which analysed different data sources and weather forcast and generated a schedule that helped the system to switch the power sources.- Developing a IPO Platform for a Fintech based UK-Startup.

    One of my passions during childhood was holding a camera and taking photographs of people. I went to weddings and asked people who had cameras to let me take some photos. That passion continued to grow. My actual Entrepreneurship journey started in Photography as I did a lot of Wedding and Fashion photography. However, I didn't continue the business as I felt that my main strengths are in Software Development, so I did not continue it.Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/uclick.photo/

    National Robosprint Sep 2013 - Aug 2016
    The name β€˜ROBOSPRINT’ is attributed to an annual robotics competition held by Center for Advanced Studies in Engineering (CASE) to promote passion for the field of robotics in its undergraduate students. ROBOSPRINT was initiated at a local level by CASE Robotics Group (CRG) - the undergraduate robotics research group of CASE, in 2009.In 2010, Air University joined hands and their students participated along with the students of CASE making it a bigger and a better experience.General InformationThough CRG has enjoyed great success in the recent past by the grace of Almighty Allah yet it has not blinded us of the fact that our competitors (from all over Pakistan) have lacked basic skills in this particular field. ROBOSPRINT is not just a nation wide competition but a comprehensive plan to promote robotics by educating youth of Pakistan. Our plan will be thoroughly discussed in the following text describing our vision of ROBOSPRINT in the future and our motive of spreading robotics across country.

    After completing my bachelor's, I embarked on the journey of Entrepreneurship and join hands with my fellow partners to incorporate "RoboTek Engineering". Since the team was really capable in Robotics and Embedded Systems, we decided to start our journey in developing a product that can help the mass and we choose to develop a "Made In Pakistan" solution for the DSNG Vehicles. Apart from the dish, we developed a system under 100,000/- Pakistani Rupees. The dish was not a part of the solution. Apart from working on the designs, marketing material, photographer, I was also involved in the programming of the system. The complete system was demonstrated and was installed on many media vehicles from different public and private companies.The whole startup was initially a success, but due to some mistakes and bad decisions, we had to shut down the whole startup.
