Projects

Smart Side Door

Developed a smart vehicle side-door safety system using an ESP microcontroller, PIR sensor, and ultrasonic sensor to detect approaching pedestrians and cyclists. Implemented real-time distance and motion detection to alert users and prevent door-opening collisions.

Object Detection Drone

Developed a drone-based surveillance system by integrating embedded electronics onto a real drone platform. Implemented real-time object detection using OpenCV on live video with bounding-box tracking for target identification, aimed at defence monitoring and reconnaissance applications.

8051 Smart Street Light Project

Developed an intelligent street-lighting system using an 8051 microcontroller, LDR for light-intensity sensing, and an IR sensor for motion detection. Implemented automatic control logic to reduce power consumption and improve energy efficiency.
