DigiStep: A digital Stepper Motor Controller design using PSoC4200
Designed and implemented is a stepper motor controller using a couple of Flip-Flops, Multiplexers and Logic Gates. Putting the design inside a Programmable SoC would be like a highly configurable driver. No exclusive controller chip is required and multiple controller logics can be implemented in a single PSoC chip. This stepper driver efficiently suits the 28BYJ-48 unipolar stepper motor and is intended for applications in Printers, Robotic Arms, High torque tractions etc.
AquaLoop: A 4-20mA current loop based Water Level Indicator
Project AquaLoop, design of water tank level indicators. The main target was to make the system robust, low noise, less lossy over a distance for signal transmission. It’s fully designed with basic, discrete components using a BC547 based water level indicator circuit, OPA211 Op-Amp for signal conditioning, UA741 Op-Amp with BC557 as a current transmitter, LM393 comparators for driving the bar LEDs and an R2R ladder network for signal conditioning. No microcontroller, No coding, All analog and data conversion.
Miniature BLE Automation
Implementation of multichannel Bluetooth Low Energy appliance control system with Taiyo Yuden BLE (nRF52811) module. Unique keyword transmission is achieved to BLE module from smartphone via UART interface for multichannel toggling.
Multiutility Agricultural Robot
Multiutility AGRI-Bot is a multipurpose machine that performs field agricultural tasks. With this Bot, the plan is to implement IoT and Image processing techniques using set of sensors and monitors which visualises data via MATLAB and quick, effective analysis can be done via the same. The main objective here is to bring technology and farming closer and make the tasks easier thereby easing the process and bringing development in the field of Agriculture.

Low Cost Bedside Patient Monitoring System for the Clinical Community Battling COVID-19
The health care community requires effective monitoring of vital signs to identify and treat at-risk patients. Such monitoring becomes more relevant in the case of diseases like COVID-19. The availability of bedside patient monitors remains limited, given the enormous demand placed on our already overstretched health care facilities comprising of nursing homes, hospitals (including tertiary ones). Our team is proposing a very inexpensive solution for the healthcare sector that will in patient monitoring.
GPS Location Tracking System
Project descriptionGPS Live Data Monitoring is a system in which the location data is acquired from an onboard GPS module. The data is then processed via .kml wrapper which displays the location (lat, long, height) on Google Earth. Data is acquired and stored in a SD-Card using ATMEGA 328P Microcontroller (Arduino). The main objective is to visualise and track location data with compact and low cost electronic implementation.

Embedded Systems Hardware Intern - Praan (Aug 2020 – Oct 2021)
At Praan, in the Intelligent Systems team, I worked on designing, testing and revising the full-stack embedded systems board with Power, Sensing, Processing and Connectivity units.
(Tools: Eagle PCB, LTSpice, KiCAD, STMCube IDE)
Summer Intern - IISER Bhopal (May 2021 – Aug 2021)
Worked under the guidance of Prof. Mitradip Bhattacharjee, EECS Department on the project “Multisensor Integration and LNA Design”. Interfaced different types of temperature sensors onto a microcontroller, logged the live data to Excel and to a smartphone app via Bluetooth. The aim was to analyze responses of each sensor for a common temperature swing and compare, correct the surges to get a smooth output value.
