My Projects
Here is where you can view some of my most favorite projects that I have had the pleasure of working on.
Earthquake prediction using deep learning
Data science • 2016I created an algorithm based on deep learning that can discern foreshock, mainshock or aftershock in real-time. Until now, it is impossible to identify the type of earthquake in real-time. Identifying foreshocks as and when they occur provides valuable insight to predict imminent earthquakes. After training, I successfully classified them into their respective types with high accuracy (>99%). The project is one of the first applications of deep learning in the field of seismology, and I am thrilled and excited about it.
Learn MoreMotheye structures for Solar Photovoltaics
Solar PV • 2014 • Masters thesis • Nano structuresI designed a antireflection coating layer for a solar panel that can reduce the reflection loss to less than 1% over a wide range of wavelengths.
Learn MoreLow cost solution to identify refractive errors
Optics • 2016 • Medical deviceI redesigned and optical refinements to make Julia device
Learn MoreSelf-driving car related projects
Computer vision • Coursework • Autonomous systemsI did a year long nano-degree on self-driving cars. In this course I did several projects related to computer vision, kalman filters, lane planing and others.
Learn MoreOptomechanical structures based on SiN
• Nano Optics • Photonics • Experimental •I fabricated thin nanobeam structures that are usually tough to fabricate
Learn MoreNovel design for biomolecule sensing and filter applications
Photonics • Simulation • BiosensorI designed a new biosensor based on guided mode resonance (GMR) that has better Angular Tolerance and Sensitivity
Learn MoreSmart gloves(Wearble) for gesture recognition: MIT Media Lab workshop prototype
Data science • 2021 •I created a prototype of gloves using smart fabrics for gesture recognition.
Learn MoreImproving light extraction efficiency of OLEDs
• Optics • Photonics • OLED • SimulationThis was my first research project. This project was a colloboration between Physics department and Moeser Baer company. The goal of this project was to improve extraction efficiency of OLED. The light coming out of a OLED device is only 20% of what is produced. This is due to reflection,transmission and other losses. To combat these losses, we used Silver nano particles. My contribution to the project was to study the effect of size and shape of Silver nano particles and their effect to improve the light extraction efficiency of OLED.
Learn MoreSteering a car using hand gestures
Gesture recognition • Prototype • Computer Vision • 2011 •I made a prototype to identify hand gestures and used them to steer a custom toy car. To recognize hand gestures, I attached a colour tag in my forefinger, which my camera was tracking. I wrote a code in MATLAB to monitor the colour tag and interfaced and I interfaced it with an Arduino. The MATLAB code provided instructions to the Arduino. In turn, the Arduino controlled the motors and steered the car accordingly. I exhibited my prototype during IIT Roorkee's annual hobby fest and received 1st prize and accolades from the audience.
Learn MoreAutomatically aligning Solar Panel
Solar Panel • Optimising • Prototype • 2010I created a POC for tracking the angle at which the sun’s rays are maximum and align the panel in that orientation Learn More
