Skills

  • Microsoft Office Suite
  • Research Methodologies
  • Basic Python
  • C Programming
  • Microcontrollers
  • Proteus
  • Autodesk 360 (Fusion 360, TinkerCAD)
  • Scientific paper experience
  • Communication
  • Customer Service
  • Research design
  • Experiment management

Research/ Projects

  • Developed a multiplexed Chemical doping system with eight syringe pumps in automated operation mode
  • Developed a taxi fare metering system that computes transport fares based on distance. This design is tailored to fit taxi operations within this sub-region where a taxi carries multiple people at the same time to different destinations. This design is able to compute for four different passengers separately yet simultaneously
  • Researched on and developed a capacitive touch response door lock as an alternative to the orthodox “lock and key”, aimed at exploring cheaper yet a more efficient door lock, using an aluminum foil and a microcontroller as main components
  • Researched on and developed a Pulse Width Modulating Light Dimmer. The aim of the PWM is to power any device (in this case a light) at half of its ideal power consumption rate.
  • Supported in conducting a test aimed at finding out how different ambient temperatures affect the ability of Lithium cells in a battery pack, in reaching their nominal operating voltages (rate of charge)
