Team Works

Prochesta- A Mars Rover

As part of Team Interplanetar's Electrical subteam, I made significant contributions to the development of Prochesta v3.0, a Mars rover designed for international competitions like URC,ERC and ARC. My responsibilities included designing the Science Board PCB and the Wheel Driving Board PCB, crucial components for controlling scientific instruments and rover locomotion, respectively. I also debugged the rover's electrical system and executed the wiring assembly, ensuring optimal functionality. Prochesta v3.0 successfully participated in URC 2023, ERC 2023, ARC 2023 and ARC 2024.

Prottasha- A Concept Mars Rover

As part of Team Interplanetar, I contributed to Prottasha v1.0, a concept Mars rover for the International Rover Design Challenge (IRDC). I designed the complete electrical system, integrating power, motor control, sensors, and communication components for efficient operations. Additionally, I engineered a heating system to protect the electronics from Mars' extreme cold temperatures. Prottasha v1.0's electrical and thermal designs, led by my efforts, played a key role in its IRDC participation, highlighting our team's conceptual capabilities.

Formula Student Car

As part of the Suspension team at Team AutoMaestro, I contributed significantly to the Formula Student race car project. I conducted knuckle simulations and analyses to optimize their design for structural integrity and performance, using computational modeling and finite element analysis. Additionally, I oversaw the manufacturing process of the knuckles, ensuring that fabrication was precise and aligned with the optimized designs.

My Work

Rollie Pollie v1.0

Meet Team-Anything from Department of Mechanical Engineering, BUET, presenting 'Rollie Pollie: A Bio-inspired Rolling-Crawling Robot.' 🤖 Our innovative creation, inspired by the Cebrennus rechenbergi spider, combines walking and rolling for versatile terrain navigation. Enhanced with machine learning, it excels in interactive tasks and surveillance, offering solutions for remote inspections and search and rescue missions. WIth interactive engagements our robot can support you as a pet companion! 🐾

Scalable Spiral Plate Heat Exchanger

Developed a compact, scalable spiral plate heat exchanger for the food and beverage industry, optimized for high thermal efficiency and handling viscous, fouling fluids. The eco-friendly design uses river water as a cooling medium while ensuring safe discharge temperatures and easy maintenance for industrial use.

Phonix v1.0

Phonix v1.0 is a bluetooth control car. I had made it to participate in the "Speed Racing" competition of my university. It is mainly an arduino based project. It's unique chassis design enables it to operate in both normal and upside down position. Speed and Direction of wheel rotation can be controlled by a android app, which is also designed by me.

Anisha v1.0

Anisha v1.0 is a "Virtual Assistant". I created it with the help of Python. It can recognize human voices and vocally interact with its user. It can greet you according to date and time. It can play music randomly or according to your choice, send mail, search in Wikipedia, introduce itself, open any application,type on a word file, tell time and date, and provide full weather updates or any individual query for any region of the world. It can be fully controlled with voice commands.

Mogo v1.0

Mogo v1.0 is an autonomous robo-car. It has two modes: "Obstacle Avoiding" and "Human Following". It uses a sonar sensor while operating in Obstacle Avoiding Mode, and IR sensors while operating in Human Following Mode. It uses an Arduino uno as the main microcontroller.

Pneumonia Detector Website

Created a Website that can predict whether a person is suffering from Pneumonia or not depending on the X-ray image he uploaded. This website works with the help of a custom Machine Learning Model also created by me
