Usman MM

Helping BMW develop car infotainment system through Paradox Cat.

Development of embedded telemetry solutions for Volkswagen. • Headed the development of Android AOSP based solution for FPGA with CAN interface. • Significantly improved on linux-syslog based logging and DB cleanup techniques. • Developed modem emulator for black box testing with remote access through REST API. Technology stack: C/C++, Linux, Android AOSP, Shell-scripting, CMake, JSON, REST API, Github, SVN Subversion, JIRA.

Research & development for robot-vision. Object segmentation and tracking with moving camera (patent filed for the algorithm). 3D localization and mapping for autonomous agents through monocular vision. (C/C++, OpenCV, Android AOSP / NDK)

→ Development of gameplay capture service for the Android platform. Devising tricks to manipulate Unity based Android games to capture the audio and video data. → Audio and screen-capture service for Android (SDK, NDK, for LG and Samsung devices). → Video watermarking for Android platform. (Java, C/C++, NDK)

→ I led the development of mobile audiovisual media APIs and platform for the first time in whole Asia. (Unity3D, OpenGL ES and AVFoundation at iOS) → Managed the team of 5 engineers for advanced audio and video capture service platform for mobile games (iOS and Android). (Unity3D, H.264 video compression, AAC, OpenGL ES, iOS, Android) → Media rich mobile apps to record, plot and analyze health-related parameters recorded through hardware interface attached to mobile’s audio jack.

→ Development of in-house 3D graphics software tools that are used to design, analyze and plan the tooth-straightening process through transparent dental aligners (medical software) → Design and development of a highly interactive iPhone app that shoots and projects the photographs in a 3D environment (using OpenGL ES) and stitches them to create high resolution spherical panoramas.

→ Led the development of 3D Tooth Arrangement, a 3D software for dental students (Java, VTK, Qt) → NYC ShopSmart, a shopping guide for New York. (iOS) → Dynamic plotting modules for iPhone apps. (iOS) → TAPP, a data intensive iPhone and Blackberry app for address book synchronization. → Developed iPlan, a 3D software package for dental analysis and implant planning. (VC++, VTK) → Developed iView, an ActiveX control to generate highly-interactive video animation. (VC++, VTK)

Computer Vision / Image and Video Coding → Real time video copy detection under the environments of degraded and edited videos. → Saliency detection in the videos on the bases of motion vectors and intensity contrast. → Development of basic video transcoder using H.264 Encoders and Decoders.
