My father has a shop, where we sell and provide service for electronic appliances. I often used to go there and observe the engineer fixing the electronic appliances. since, I didn't understand anything, it looked like magic to me. That is when I knew that I was going to be an engineer.
I want to leave the world as a better place than it was when I was here.
This is a part of the Institutional Research Project(IRP), where we are building a Humanoid Robot. This is the base part of our humanoid robot which we have implemented using ROS. My role was to implement the ROS Navigation stack on the robot.

The ISE&PPOOA process of model-based system engineering was followed for this project. The design and fabrication were done by my teammates, my role was to develop the forward and inverse kinematic equations and implement them using ROS on Raspberry Pi.
The problem statement was surface defect detection using FPGA boards. So I used a pynq-z2 FPGA board and created my custom overlay, by using a little bit of OpenCV and maths I were able to successfully complete the project. We used an external camera which was placed on the ceiling as the eyes of the robot. We used ML to detect the object and obstacles, and by using some linear algebra the bot was able to autonomously navigate from the home position to target position.
