CONTROL OF PHOTONIC INTEGRATED CIRCUITS:  SenUs Developed a control algorithm to enable higher order coupled ring resonator optical waveguide filters to undergo automatic wavelength locking and carry out tracking of signal wavelengths. This was developed and demonstrated at the Institute of Integrated Photonics at RWTH Aachen, Germany. This was the main focus of my Master Thesis. Click here to read the document.

SENSUS STUDENT COMPETITION:  SenUs is an international competition held in Eindhoven. In 2019, the objective was to develop a bio assay for detecting a drug called Adalimumab used in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. Our team won the first prize in one of the four award categories.

SOLAR TRACKER: A solar tracker is a device that is used to orient a solar panel towards the sun as it changes its position in the sky during daytime. The Institute of Mechanical Engineering at KIIT Unversity sanctioned the development of a const-effective and feasible solar tracker for a future project that it aimed to implement in the futire to charge the electric vehicles designed at the institute. This was the main focus of my Bachelor Thesis.

EFFI-CYCLE: SAE India Effi-cycle is a National level competition hosted by SAE India. The challenge is to design and fabricate a three-wheeler hybrid electric vehicle that works on human power and electric power. As a member of our collegiate team for two consecutive years, my responsibility was to develop the electrical drive and the electrical innovations implemented on the vehicle.

AUTOMATIC BRAKE ALERT: An independently designed device inspired by the intelligent braking mechanism of Hyundai Genesis. With the basic requirements limited to a microcontroller and an ultrasonic transceiver, we developed a simple single-axis solar tracker which has potential to increase the efficiency of the solar panels by 30 percent.
