Implementation of High Dynamic Range (HDR) Imaging on a GPU

Implemented a High Dynamic Range(HDR) Composition on a GPU GTX980 by combining 10 differently exposed images to capture the dynamic range of the scene. The GPU implementation of the HDR achieved a speedup of 7708x compared to a CPU implementation of it.

E-Bike with Regenerative Braking and Smart Helmet

A normal bike was converted into e-bike using by attaching it with an electric motor to the rear wheel. The e-bike is equipment with various sensors and displays to measure and display bike stats like distance travelled, speed, and track the location of stolen cycle. A smart helmet pairs with the bike which allows the bike to controlled using voice commands.
