Projects
-  2023.10 - 2024.03Semi Autonomous DrivingThe aim of a the project was to demonstrate Semi Autonomous Parking where a vehicle is scannig for appropriate parking spaces and then after detection of a valid parking space a parking maneuvre was executed. A Simulink based simulator was first designed to validate the parking space scanning algorithm and the trjectory planning module. The project was then implemented on Lego Mindstorm platform, which posed various challenges due to its limited sensor interfacing support.- Autonomous Driving

- Simulink
 
-  2017.10 - 2018.05e-Health Monitoring using rPPGThe aim of this project was to detect heartrate of a person utiliying Image Processing and a video of a person's face. Heartrate was extracted by variations of the skin color caused due to the blood being pumped. Signal processing methods on the RGB data were applied to extract the heartrate.- Image Processing
