Champion-Line-Follower Robot Racing Competition [click for details]
An inter-university line-follower robot racing competition was held as a part of the International Conference on Communication & Information Technology (ICCIT) 2015. This event featured 25 teams from prestigious universities, where my team designed, developed, and programmed an autonomous robot capable of navigating a complex track with precision and speed. Our robot stood 1st out due to its advanced sensor integration, optimized control algorithms, and efficient circuit design, which enabled us to outperform all other teams and claim the championship title. This victory was a testament to our innovative approach to robotics and teamwork under competitive conditions. A glimpse of the practice session of the line-follower is visible at this video link.
Best Project-[click for details]
The award-winning project titled "Smart Street Light System in Mirpur Cantonment Area", was recognized as the best technical project at the "MIST Best Project Award-2018". This innovative project focused on enhancing energy efficiency and automation in street lighting within the Mirpur Cantonment area. The system utilized advanced sensors and smart control mechanisms to dynamically adjust lighting based on traffic flow and environmental conditions, significantly reducing energy consumption while ensuring optimal illumination. Winning this prestigious award highlighted the project's technical excellence and its potential for real-world applications in smart city infrastructure. The project was later acknowledged by the then Dhaka North City Corporation authority.
In 2020, I developed the haHardware setup for a Digital Arsenal (Kote) management system for the Bangladesh Army, which streamlined and secured the weapon inventory process. This system enabled efficient and reliable management of weapons, including rapid and secure issue and return processes, real-time weapon logging, and strong anti-forgery protections for improved arsenal security. My contributions included:
- Prototype Arsenal (Kote): Designed and assembled a functional prototype incorporating RFID-tagged weapons to ensure accurate tracking and monitoring.
- Interfacing Circuit for Security: Engineered a custom circuit for fingerprint and RFID scanning, supporting secure weapon access and preventing unauthorized handling. Real-Time Data Transfer**: Developed internet data transfer capabilities for centralized logging and real-time arsenal monitoring, allowing remote oversight by authorized personnel.
- Arsenal Gate Lock Control: Integrated a magnetic locking mechanism for secure storage, controlled electronically to restrict access based on authentication protocols.
This project, funded by the Bangladesh Army, not only facilitated robust arsenal management but also reinforced my technical expertise in secure embedded systems and digital inventory solutions, aligning closely with my PhD research interests in secure hardware systems and data management.
In 2018, I led a team of MIST students in developing an innovative Smart Street Light System tailored for rural settings, enabling automatic On/Off scheduling of street lights to conserve energy and enhance operational efficiency. The system also featured a GSM-SMS control mechanism for remote activation, facilitating flexibility and immediate response to changing lighting needs. The prototype phase received $2000 in funding, with the final version successfully implemented in Mirpur Cantonment, Dhaka. The project earned recognition from Dhaka City Corporation and was awarded the Best Project Award in the MIST project competition. Additionally, our work was published in IEEE (accessible here), showcasing a practical, scalable solution for rural infrastructure that aligns with my broader research interests in energy-efficient systems and embedded solutions for smart city applications.
As a member of a Bangladesh Army team, I contributed to the development of an Automatic Pop-Up Target System designed to enhance soldiers' firing practice. This system enabled dynamic and automated training, integrating various features to streamline and improve the training experience. Key technical contributions included:
- Automated Target Mechanism: Designed a rise-and-fall mechanism using servo motors and electrical actuators, allowing targets to automatically pop up and reset.
- Real-Time Hit Signaling: Implemented SMS and radio signal transmission upon target impact, providing immediate feedback for enhanced training accuracy.
- Hit Counting and Display: Integrated hit-counting functionality to display the number of successful hits for tracking practice performance.
- Precision Bullet Impact Analysis: Employed vibration and gyro sensors, alongside custom signal processing, to accurately detect hits and prevent false-hit signals.
- Microcontroller-Based Control: Developed and programmed the system using microcontrollers and sensor interfacing for reliable, automated operation.
- The project received $20,000 in funding from the military, was successfully completed, and has been fully handed over for operational use. This experience underscores my skills in embedded systems and sensor integration, aligning well with my PhD research interests in automation and control systems.
