Experiences
Worked as an embedded system engineer for IoT devices. My job responsibilities included design, prototype and deployment of real-time remote sensing/controlling of IoT systems.
- Firmware Development
- PCB Design
- 3d modeling (Enclosure Design)
Was hired as a mentor for a TV Reality Show about Robotics titled GPH Ispat Esho Robot Banai. My job responsibility included guiding the participants and helping with the technical aspects of the events. Also at the lab of CRID-USA, who is a partner of the show, developed several fun appliance robots like IoT-based Grilling Oven that could be controlled over the internet in real-time, etc.
TekModules is a startup of electronic module making for hobbyists. I worked as a PCB designer
- Organized, attended, and mentored numerous events, workshops, seminars, and competitions.
- Instructor of Basic Robotics course offered by the club since Summer 2016.
Semester-long weekly workshop on the basics of robotics, programming microcontrollers, and a final project. I took classes and designed the curriculum and projects.
Projects
Developing a two-stage object detection pipeline for autonomous UAV operation as part of my MSc thesis project.
Project work as part of the master’s course Marine Control Systems 1 using MSS (Marine Systems Simulator) MATLAB-Simulink Toolbox. We had to model environmental loads and develop controller for a DP system using EKF and Non-Linear Passive Observer.
Practical work as part of the master’s course Marine Mechatronics.
Practical work as part of the master’s course Marine Mechatronics.
The Universite de Toulon and Ensta Bretagne organized an autonomous boat competition in Guerlédan Lake, France. Participants were tasked with constructing a boat that could follow a pre-determined path marked by GPS points in the shortest time possible. Main tasks of this project: 1) IMU and magnetometer calibration. 2) Vessel Motion control (Speed and Heading) based on GPS, IMU, and Magnetometer data. 3) Remote controller setup for manual override.
Tools Used: Raspberry Pi, IMU, GPS, DC motor+ESC, Radio Controller.
BRACU Duburi is the first autonomous underwater vehicle of Bangladesh and was launched in 2017. “Duburi” team was successful to secure 7th position in SAUVC (Singapore Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Challenge) 2018.
As the electronics lead, I designed the main controller board(SAUVC18). I worked on system design, firmware development for the Pixhawk ‘dive-controller’, underwater acoustic positioning system, custom depth sensor and its PID interface library for the AUV (SAUVC19).
