All Deep Learning Computer Vision Research Other

CometBot - Autonomous Robot

Built a completely autonomous robot for the IEEE Region 5 Robotics Competition. Developed the navigation system for the robot using ultrasound sensors and computer vision.

Control Module for an Exoskeleton

Developed a GUI based control module that will allow the user to easily interact with the Exoskeleton.

Image-guided Intravascular Robotic System

A system that allowed real-time tracking of a catheter inside the heart for replacing the Mitral Valve. We implemented routines for 3D reconstructions, image registration and catheter segmentation using deep learning.

IoT Based Telemedicine Web Server

A web server that displayed real-time diagnostic data received from the various sensors using WebSocket, and relayed the data to a cloud server for remote access.
