Project: Smart Streetlight Framework for Collision Prediction of Vehicles 

Duration: 03.2019 - 02.2021

Industry: COIKOSITY

Description: In this project, we have designed a framework for a smart vehicle monitoring system that utilizes roadside units such as streetlights to provide smooth mobility for vehicles. This system aims to eliminate the need for each vehicle to be equipped with expensive smart sensors, which can be a burden for developing and underdeveloped countries. To predict vehicle collisions, we have based our system on scientific and engineering concepts such as relative motion and vectors and implemented it using a machine learning-based model. We have used these concepts to generate datasets for training the prediction model, and have simulated the performance of the proposed model using the software Virtual Crash. Overall, our goal is to provide a cost-effective solution for smooth and safe vehicle mobility.

Project: Smart City: Autonomous Vehicle Parking Lot

Duration: 03.2020 - 02.2021

Industry: VEStellaLab (vestellalab.com)

Description: In this project, we have developed artificial intelligence (AI) and deep learning algorithms for autonomous driving. These algorithms utilize cutting-edge technologies such as RFID, wireless sensor networks (WSN), NFC, cloud networks, and smartphones to enable the automatic monitoring and management of parking spaces. The goal of this system is to assist vehicles in entering and exiting parking spaces and to provide automatic billing/booking of parking spots. By using these innovative technologies, we aim to improve the efficiency and convenience of parking services and to reduce the time and effort required for individuals to park their vehicles. 

 Project: VERO: EV parking lot detection Apps

Duration: 03.2019 - 02.2020

Industry: VEStellaLab (vestellalab.com)

Description: VERO is a Mobile application that utilizes sensor technologies and real-time communication systems to detect and manage electric vehicle (EV) parking spaces. This system aims to optimize the utilization of EV parking spaces, allowing individuals to easily locate and reserve parking spots for their EVs. By providing this service, cities can encourage the adoption of EVs and improve the overall flow of traffic within a city. The system may also be integrated into a smart city infrastructure, allowing for the automation of parking services and the optimization of parking space utilization.

Description: In this project, we have developed a dynamic driver profile (DDP) that utilizes deep learning methods to predict and address risky driver behavior. The DDP is based on three major sets of attributes that accurately predict motion and enable automatic interventions for driver safety. The DDP is digitally implemented and behaviorally designed to minimize the number of high-risk drivers on the road. We have also conducted a road data study of all risky drivers, using the STPSR model for risk analysis to improve the overall performance of our prevention platform. Additionally, we have implemented a feedback-based update system to increase the accuracy of our recommendations. Overall, our goal is to improve driver safety through the use of advanced technology and data analysis.

Project: Onboard Diagonisis Device (OBD-II) Realtime Vehicle Data Collection 

Duration: 11.2013 - 02.2015

Industry: MtoV Inc., (MTOV)

Description: In this project we have design and developed a OBD-II (On-Board Diagnostics II) device for monitoring and diagnosing vehicles' engine performance and emissions. It is a diagnostic system that is installed in most vehicles manufactured since 1996 and is designed to help mechanics and technicians diagnose problems with a vehicle's engine, transmission, and other systems. OBD-II is connected to a vehicle's on-board computer, which is responsible for monitoring the performance of various systems and components. When the computer detects a problem with the vehicle, it will trigger a fault code and store it in the OBD-II system's memory. Mechanics and technicians can then use a diagnostic tool to access this fault code and use it to diagnose and fix the problem. OBD-II is a useful tool for diagnosing problems with a vehicle and can help mechanics and technicians identify issues and fix them quickly and efficiently.
