Last
week, before the lock down kicked in, I had an opportunity to
participate in a week long workshop conducted by Department of Education in
Science and Mathematics (DESM) at NCERT. The workshop was about putting
together requirements and guidelines for creating assistive technologies
for the visually impaired students to visualize and enjoy science in
general and to pursue science experiments in particular.
Midway during the workshop, I showed all the participants (around 20 teachers from various levels) all our embedded systems projects many of which demonstrate talking sensor ideas.
As a result, I am happy to share that I have been tasked with creating about 12 assistive sensor projects. They deal with sensing liquid, light, touch, heat, weight, color, pressure etc and to convert to sound and/or speech.
It's not only a great honor for me and my cohorts at NSUT, it is also a great responsibility. It is important that the faith that has been reposed in us, should be responsibly discharged.
I am therefore, using this platform to seek summer interns to work on these projects. I am looking for students with good 'Maker' skills together with knowledge about electronic circuit design and fabrication, embedded controllers, embedded programming and circuit and system fabrication. Please e-mail me your CV/resume as a PDF file that lists matching skill-set at: dvgadreatgmaildotcom.
Caveat Emptor: We don't know how this current pandemic will play out and whether we will have any summer vacations at all. So, please keep that in mind.
