Detailed profile:
Senior Research Engineer
at Read-Ink Technologies Pvt Ltd, June 2004-2007
Read-Ink is a small,
privately held company specializing in document analysis and
handwriting recognition technologies.
At
read-ink I was involved in the design and implementation of algorithms
at various levels of the online handwriting recognition which include
pre-processing, component, character and word levels. Handwriting
recognition involves complex mathematical computations and a deep
understanding of Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition.
(Technical
details are proprietary)
I
was able come up with innovative and path-breaking ideas for better
recognition. I also had the opportunity to work with and lead small
teams enabling me to hone my leadership and inter-personal skills.

Vision Guided Autonomous Vehicle -
Won
award for Best Innovative Design in Robotix 2002, a
robotics competition organized by IIT Kharagpur. The objective of the
competition was to make a vehicle which can particularly seek striped
cubes from an arena of cubes, spheres and cones without colliding
with any object. Visual input was taken using a Logitech web camera.
The vehicle was controlled by switching transistors connected to the
parallel port of the computer.
Voice Activated Switch –
Won
3rd prize in Hardware Category, National Design
Contest 2001. The objective of the competition was to make a
user-independent switch which would turn on when the user says on
and goes off when the user says off. The input from the
microphone was amplified and fed to few filters in audio frequency
range. The output of these filters was analyzed and a relay was
activated accordingly.
Rope Climbing Robot -Built a
rope-climbing robot for the International Rope-Climbing Machine
Design Contest, IIT Bombay, Jan 2004
Vehicle to traverse a path and pick up a napkin
-
Participated
in Yantriki 2003, a robotics competition organized by IIT
Bombay. The objective of the competition was to make a manually
operated vehicle to traverse a path with few obstacles, pick up a napkin
placed on the floor, return back to its original position and drop
the napkin in minimum amount of time.
Vehicle to guide ping-pong balls into a
goal -
Participated
in Robotix 2003, IIT kharagpur. The objective of the
competition was to make a vehicle which can collect ping-pong balls
lying on the floor and guide them into a goal. The vehicle also has
to avert some obstacles kept in the arena before reaching the goal.
