Recent Projects

  • GenAI powered Alexa Smart IoT Home:

(Broacast Demo Link - https://broadcast.amazon.com/videos/1340807 )

Demo video is intended to showcase the possibilities and customer experience for an LLM powered Alexa smart home using AWS Bedrock and AWS IoTCore services. The setup features a light, smart fan and an air-conditioner controlled via ESP32 SoC, which connects to AWS IoT Core via Wi-Fi. This system integrates multiple smart devices: a 20-LED RGB strip (WS2812 5050) for customizable lighting ambiance, a variable-speed fan controlled by an L9110 IC, and a simulated air-conditioner utilizing a relay and dual LEDs to visualize horizontal (green) and vertical (red) air directional adjustments.

  • Alexa and AWS Bedrock Powered Edutainment Application ('24) :

(Broacast Demo Link - https://broadcast.amazon.com/videos/1216415 )

This Alexa skill, powered by Anthropic's Claude 3 Haiku model, serves as an interactive virtual tutor designed to help young children in India, aged 5 to 8, learn English in a bilingual format, combining English and Hindi. The friendly and engaging learning experience uses smart home integration for visual-aided games and structured interactions to teach foundational literacy skills, such as alphabets, syllables, and tenses. 

  • India's First Alexa Zero-Touch-Setup (ZTS) Feature Launch ('24) : In collaboration with Dixon (a top Indian lighting manufacturer), Wipro (a leading Indian lighting brand), and Espressif (a leading Wi-Fi chip manufacturer), I lead the development and launch of India's first light bulb powered by the Alexa Connect Kit (ACK) with the ZTS feature. This setup the device automatically once powered on, without any customer action required. This improved the connection rate of Wipro's ACK light bulb by 791 basis points compared to non-ACK light bulbs.
  • Panasonic Matter RAC Launch ('23) : I provided technical support to Panasonic with the launch of a Matter (a new smart home connectivity protocol) enabled air conditioner that works with Alexa.
  • Schindler's Global IoEE (Internet of Elevators and Escalators) Fleet Health Concept and Cloud Model ('22) : I developed the concept and cloud model for Schindler's global IoEE fleet health.
  • Automation in Device Management for Schindler's Global IoEE Fleet ('22) : I worked on automating device management for Schindler's global fleet of IoEE (Internet of Elevators and Escalators).
  • IIoT Smart Pole Project : As a technical lead, I collaborated between SANSI and Bajaj Electricals Ltd. on an IIoT Smart Pole project.
  • Cybersecurity of IoT Products : As a technical lead, I represented Bajaj Electricals in a collaboration with WISeKey for the cybersecurity of IoT products, which involved a visit to France.
  • IoT Smart Home Prototypes : I have developed numerous IoT smart home prototypes using Raspberry Pi 3, ATTINY817, and Node MCU (ESP8266 and ESP32) on Wi-Fi protocols and cloud services like Amazon Web Services and Cayenne. I also have experience in developing Alexa/Google skills to control IoT devices by voice using the MQTT protocol.
  • Augmented Reality : I have developed prototypes for consumer appliances using PTC Thingworx Studio, PTC Illustrator, and Unity software.
  • Leap Motion Controller : I developed a prototype using the Leap Motion Controller to recognize specific hand gestures and control the dimming of lights.
