I was a part of an inter-disciplinary in-house internship, that emphasized on development of new technology products to fight the hard times of the COVID pandemic. During this internship, we had developed a smart sanitizing system which can be used to sanitize various things before being brought inside the house with the various in-built sanitizing system The entire system is controlled by the mobile application so that if the user is not in the town then also he/she can have complete control of the system. The box can also be controlled manually as an alternative by the user. The presented design and concept were appreciated by higher officials and also received a letter of appreciation from the Provost of the university. 

I had conducted a robotics workshop for the school students of the city (Vadadora) to give a brief introduction to the exponentially growing robotics industry and to enhance their knowledge and interest in the field of robotics.  Overall all experience was fantastic and was pleased to see that there is a lot of interest and curiosity the high school student to learn and enhance their knowledge in the field of robotics.

I was the technical intern in the Mechanical workshop at GSFC LTD.  There I was given hands-on experience on various mechanical fabrication processes and the machines used for processing. 

 I was elected as the President of the Mechatronics Club at GSFC University. The club deals with building mini projects of robotics and mechanics 

 I had built a virtual assistant (J.A.R.V.I.S) as a hobby project during my free time. A virtual assistant also called a digital assistant, is an application program that understands natural language voice commands and completes tasks for the user 

I had used the computer vision techniques of OpenCV to build this project.  Here a colored object at the tip of finger is used as the marker. Colour Detection and tracking is used in order to achieve the objective. The color marker is detected and a mask is produced. It includes the further steps of morphological operations on the mask produced which are Erosion and Dilation. Erosion reduces the impurities present in the mask and dilation further restores the eroded main mask. 

 I had built a  Face recognition-based Attendance Management System using OpenCV(Python). One can mark their attendance by simply facing the camera. 

 I had built an FPV Racing drone as a hobby project during my free time at the COVID 19 Pandemic. It is equipped with a DJI Nazi M V2 Flight controller kit and a 2100 kV bldc motor along with a GPS module for better accuracy and control. It is also mounted by an FPV camera in order to give a clear FPV view and also to enhance the controls for the pilot. I had made this project in order to participate in the national drone challenge at Techfest, IIT Bombay 

I had built a Hexa-copter as a hobby project during my free time at the COVID 19 Pandemic. Basically, it is a hexacopter with a lift capacity of 1.5 - 2 Kg,  with a range of 5 km, and also has autonomous drive mode built-in with a real-time surveillance camera mounted. 

 I had built a self-balancing robot (MARK-IX) as a hobby project during vacation after university examinations. The bot is kept balanced through the correction provided by the wheels which go against the direction of fall. The orientation is continuously compared to the desired orientation through a PID Loop.

 In our model we had mounted HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensors on the top of each container along with the buzzer and LCD display which displays the measured height of the chemical in the tank and a microcontroller which takes the input from the sensors and send the instruction to solenoid valve to function accordingly and also update the status of the plant to the plant head via GSM Module. 

 I was part of the project (compound crossbow) as a mechanical design engineer. In this project, our team has built a compound crossbow for a state-level mechanical engineering competition at Footprint’20 organized by MS University Vadodara 

I had built a Gesture-controlled robot (MARK-X) as a hobby project during my free time. Basically, this is a simple application of MPU-6050 3-axis Gyroscope, Accelerometer
