 Flex monitor -  A powerful indoor clean room environment monitoring device for life critical places like Hospital operation rooms, Vaccine manufacturing units, was developing and maintaining Device drivers, Device tree blob for the linux kernel by understanding the Hardware changes from electrical engineer, closely worked with electrical engineers for understanding the designs. explored more into Yocto builder tool for linux distributions.


SPM Power meter - A power meter suitable for both Industrial and domestic use, worked on Linux Kernel device drivers, Device tree blob and designed simple 555 based wave generator hardware circuit to test the pulse counter feature of SPM.


KS98 - a versatile Industrial PID controller used for controlling industrial automation process, worked on firmware development and designing simple Hardware circuits like Voltage source, Current source, Voltage divider circuit for functional testing in lab. 


designed simple ATmega328P based Drone flight controller circuit board, Implemented Control system parameters (Kp, Ki, Kd) for stability, and market available libraries of Accelerometers were modified according to hardware limitations and needs. 


Linux Device Driver for I2C devices in Beagle bone black, Customized mainline Debian kernel and device tree modification of Beagle bone black and then the modified kernel is compiled using ARM cross compiler and booted. Where Memory profiling, dump analysis are done to find crashes in running User applications. 


Wireless Wattmeter monitoring system using GSM module, Implemented this project as Freelancing Project, which collects simple power value of the wattmeter and transfers it to mobile number via GSM SMS service using AT Commands sent via UART driver, the data sent, which on other end manipulated. 


UART Based Bootloader for STM32, Implemented UART based bootloader for STM32 board as hobby project, which have given good experience in Memory architecture of microcontrollers, aliasing, JTAG debugging.
