SOME OF MY PROJECTS
Project Gesture Controlled Interface

This project aims to reduce the dependency of a medical patient. A patient lying on a bed or person unable to move from bed can swith lights, fans and ring alarms by hand gestures.
DURJOY BD A 3D Virtual Reality Game
DURJOY BD A3D Virtual Riality Game
This project describes a 3D Virtual Reality (VR) Dog Fight game built on top of android and unity 3D with a home-made cheap Google Cardboard alternative. A Dog Fight is a close proximity battle among fighter planes. There are many dog fight games that try to capture the real-life actions of such battles, but they lack the technology and graphics to actually provide users with life-like actions. High quality is not enough. The only way to do so is to embed Virtual Reality technologies in the game. But one of the necessary tools used in the VR games, VR Headsets, are expensive. Google Cardboard, one such VR headset, is comparatively cheaper and may be suitable for many VR games. But it has shortcomings regarding full control over the Fighter Plane since there is only a single magnet button. Bluetooth Gamepad is a relatively costlier alternative in such cases. As an alternative, this project uses a custom software which connects to an android phone via WIFI and acts as a remote controller for the game. This allows gamers to experience a real Dog Fight with a very low cost VR headset.

Project Storehouse Robot
Project | Storehouse Robot
​
Parcels in storehouses are usually put in their appropriate places by humans manually or by human controlled machinery such as forklifts.
Using autonomous vehicle can increase efficiency in these store houses by sorting and storing parcels without the intervention of humans. I have built a prototype of such a robot named "Storehouse Robot." This robot can operate in a predefined filed where I have a reception zone, a red flag transfer zone, a green flag transfer zone and a blue flag transfer zone. The robot starts its journey from the reception zone. It receives a flag from reception zone and senses its color. Then it goes to red flag transfer zone, green flag transfer zone or blue flag transfer zone depending on the color of the flag it receives. Reaching any of the zones the robot waits until someone receives the flag. After transferring the flag robot comes back to the reception zone and waits for the next flag.
Vehicle for Disabled Person

Project Vehicle for Disabled
Project | Vehicle for Disabled
This project demonstrate a prototype of a Vehicle/Wheelchair for the Disabled people who can only move their heads. The movements of the Vehicle/Wheelchair can be controlled by head gestures of a disabled person. A Laptop is needed in order to control the vehicle wirelessly. Three components make up the whole system -
1) The Controller.
2) The Software.
3) The vehicle.
1. Controller: The controller consists of a camera and a colored object which works as a steering guide of the vehicle. The vehicle driver has to put on the controller on his/her head in order to control the vehicle.
2. Software: This acts as the brain of the vehicle and resides on the laptop. It senses the Controller and sends signals to the vehicle accordingly to move left, right, forward or backward.
3. The Vehicle: This is the actual vehicle/wheelchair where the disabled person will sit. There is a space in the vehicle to keep a laptop in front of the head of the driver.
This Vehicle receives signal from the software running in the Laptopand moves according to the signal.
Features of the Vehicle: The Intelligent Vehicle for Disabled Person has the following features.
1) The vehicle is fully controlled by the head gesture of the driver.
2) It has two modes:
a) Vehicle Driving.
b) Laptop Controlling.
3) Voice command is used to switch between the above two modes of the vehicle.
4) In Laptop Controlling mode the Controller acts as a mouse of the laptop which is controlled by head gesturing.
Future Plans: I have the following plans to implement in the future:
1) Merging stereo vision based obstacle avoidance feature in order to make the vehicle efficient and Intelligent enough to move ignoring the inappropriate driving of the driver.
2) Make the vehicle mechanically capable enough to run in a highway.
