• Designed 6 IoT PoCs based on Cellular and wifi connectivity. Two of them are currently deployed on field.
• Wrote firmware for embedded hardware to convert standard industrial meters into cloud connected meters.
• Programmed u-controllers (ARM Cortex M3 based) using C / C++ to read industrial meters with ADC, I2C, and SPI Protocols.
• Developed Linux based system​ for cloud connected data-logger, implemented multi-threading and fault-tolerance for reliability.
• Productionized full-scale JSON based RESTAPIs using Python - Flask and SQL, wrote python library to interact with cloud data servers(Azure).
• Created other PoCs using Azure and GCP services with different protocols like MQTT / Pub-Sub.

• Part of the three person core team of the startup that built the 200W Airborne Wind Energy prototype (“Aircraft flying in the sky (consuming almost no fuel), generating electricity, and supplying to a grid”)
• Maintained and tweaked the Ardupilot hardware with small firmware edits. Experimented with flight sensors (IMU, Pitot tube) for understanding flight mechanics.
• Implemented cutting-edge research papers on MATLAB to calculate trajectory for fuel-less flight
• Designed (Scrum-Agile) and documented experiments, technology procedures which involved multiple engineering teams.

• Researched on BLE 4.0 hardware (HM 10) and demonstrated innovative solutions for in-door location and advertising using iBeacon.

• Emulated smart city architecture using Raspberry Pis using RESTful APIs using Flask and ngrok.
• Implemented a fog server to listen and store data in SQL database, for processing/visualization (Pandas) and predictions.
• Generated hourly predictions using LSTM neural networks implemented on keras-tensorflow.

• Reading MIPS instructions from txt file to execute the program. Implemented out-of-order execution 4-staged pipelined architecture.
• Created working processor with 16 registers, 20 memory addresses, reorder buffer and reservation station.

• Implemented an intrusion detection system to detect the attacker, victim, the time, and the type of attack. The system was able to monitor real-time activity as well as historical data-logs of tcpdump.
• Other related project: DNS Activity Monitor and Ads Blocking Filter.
• Practiced man-in-the-middle, evil twin, metasploit attacks on windows and linux based lab environments(IPV4).

• Using Xilinx's ISE fabricated virtual hardware which can rotate image 200% faster than usual.
• Created hardware APIs for fabricated hardware with VHDL. Using APIs with C/C++ rotated image and ran tests. cases.
• This is a common implementation for modern processors like ARM Cortex M-3,M-4,M-7

• FreeRTOS on my pebble watch.[RTOS]
• Exhibited Internet of things prototypes in MakerFest '15 and '16. Was a participant in multiple Hackathons.[iBeacon, js, ESP32]
• Solar tracker using photodiodes and motors to increase efficiency of solar plates. [Embedded HW & SW]
