Internship
Attended the Inplant training at Central Institute of Tool Design (CITD) along with a course on MATLAB-ARDUINO for 30 days. Worked on a project to create a Mini Computer Numerical Control using Arduino.
Projects Undertaken
Project 1: GPS Distance Meter using Arduino
Description: A project based on GPS and Arduino to measure the distance between two points using the Haversine formula, which calculates the distance between two points on a sphere from their longitudes and latitudes. This uses a GPS system and keeps a record of the latitude and logitude of the starting point and tracks them till the end button is clicked. The latitude and logitude os the start and end points are then given to the arduino as input. Using these values, arduino calculates the distance between them and displays it using an digital display. This was further improvised to calculate distance instead of displacement.
Project 2: Mini CNC using Arduino
Description: A project using Arduino and 3 Easy Drivers. It utilizes the INKSCAPE software to draw or write within a specified space, with movement managed by stepper motors. The inkscape takes the structure of we want to draw and creates a list of movements needed in length, width and height. These list of movements are the input to the arduino which further makes decisions on which easy drive to move. The end of the drive is a pen like structure which captures the image in a paper.
Project 3: Elderly Care Monitor using IoT
Description: A device using Raspberry Pi to monitor health status of senior citizens and alert emergency contacts in case of abnormalities. We continuously track the heart rate, temperature, O2 level etc. using sensors and refresh the information for every 10 seconds. If any of these values are below the desired values, then this device initiates a alarm. This alarm sends a text message to the emergency contacts and alerts the surroundings.
