• Design of new rotary production system base plate design using trusses for Rotary production system to cut cost and manufacturing time. • Material selection for different components to improve product life and performance. • Design and development of a Rotary table braking system. A new model with spring steel material. • Design and development, simplifying, drafting and creating new designs. • Process planning and route mapping of critical components such as bearings, tabletop, worm wheel and worm shaft.

• Application of OpenCV in the ROS framework. • Using fiducial markers for evaluating the pose of multiple moving objects in real-time. • Computing pose and velocity of multiple moving objects using 2 solutions. First, using cameras individually. Second, stitching two streams of images and comparing solutions in terms of performance. • Understanding methods for object recognition and tracking, which is used in various safety-critical applications such as in Advanced Driver Assistance System.

• Use of Real-Time Kinematics for enhancing the positioning of USV (Rover) from satellite-based positioning system (GNSS) and setting up communication between the base and rover, allowing an output relative position accuracy in the range of cm using Ublox RTK module. • Selection baud rate for communication. • Study of NMEA and RTCM protocols. • Integration with Pixhawk (Autonomous flight controller hardware) for implementation on a Real-Time Project using the Mission Planner software.
