Wireless Quiz System using eZ430-RF2500 module (MSP430F2274 microcontroller and RF module CC2500):
Wireless Quiz System using eZ430-RF2500 module (MSP430F2274 microcontroller and RF module CC2500):
Developed a system of multiple Wireless trans-receivers, using low power micro-controllers, communicating with a single Access point. Each end device sends a packet containing the address and the status of the button on the module. When the button is pressed, the access point stops transmission of all modules until the user of the access point releases all communication by pressing the push button on the access point module. Paper publication for the same scheduled in IEEE Southeast Conference 2010, Charlotte, North Carolina.

Implementation of a 6th order Programmable Digital Filter on AVR, M16 and ARM micro-controllers
Developed a self study project for implementation of digital filters and analyze their working with real time signals. Basic code was written in C for AVR and then adapted to work on M16C and ARM micro-controllers. Also a study was conducted on the effect of microcontroller operational frequency on the operation of the digital filter.

Digital Electronic Compass meter Using AVR Microcontrollers
Developed an interface to CMPS03 electromagnetic compass module to read the value of the current direction of the module through the two wire interface/Inter-Integrated Circuit bus, display it and transmit via UART. This fits on to the guidance system for an autonomous robotic vehicle to help it keep track of the direction.
