Projects

Real Time Object Detection Using YOLO, Using a dataset called COCO from an open source we analyzed this algorithm. To get accurate results, we trained the model for a few days and then collected the results. We used python for this project. 

Quadcopter Design and Maneuvering Using Obstacle Detection Technique, My teammates and I used software such as Mission Planner (ground control station), Ardupilot (open source), and Gazebo (for 3D simulation) to enable a quadcopter to avoid a moving target in a dynamic environment. The system is operational and can avoid obstacles, as well as perform autonomous functions such as collision avoidance and position hold and change. 

Arranging Books in a Library - C, This is a simple program that my friends and I devised to assist the college library. 

Alumni Information System – Java, People with system access have different functions and limitations. They have their own password, which they can easily change, and they have access to the profile. The developed system includes the following features: online registration; information services such as chat, forum, calendar of events, and online help; a gallery where users can upload their photos; and database maintenance. This was done using Java.

Color Detection in an Image – Python, Using a dataset containing 865 color names as well as RGB and hex values, I developed a Python project that can detect the color with the closest values.
