2013 - Present	Lead Acid Battery Desulphator Desulphator Circuit possibly using 555 or AVR along with an intelligent lead acid battery charger (V2) and automatic switch over to inverter (SMPS Based) upon power failure. This is a power supply unit for my work bench with an aid of 2x7.2AH VRLA and 1x9AH flooded Lead Acid batteries.
2012	Intelligent Lead Acid Batery Charger Designed Current cum Voltage controlled Lead acid battery charger with quick switch over upon power failure. The circuit powered my Asus RT N13U B1 Router, Music Player, etc.
2012	Adaptive 1D Run-Length Encoding Compression of binary image using 1D Run-length encoding. The encoding is adaptive whose word length is dictated by the property of the image under compression.
2011	Lithium Battery based Emergency Light Designed Li-Ion Battery charger cum protection circuit and modded the emergency lights to give approx. 24 Hr backup.
2010	Dynamic Encryption and Decryption (DYED) A dynamic encryption algorithm to encrypt message streams in multiple levels with each level being visualized as a rotating cylinder (inspired by German's Lopez Cipher) whose speed is dictated by a combination of arriving message, provided key and previous ciphered data.
2009	LCF Meter Calculation of Inductance & Capacitance using the transient property of Inductor and Capacitor respectively, frequency using incremental counting. All the calculations are performed using discrete ICs.

2013 - Present	Vehicle Tracking Vehicle tracking using image processing by object detection via optical flow analysis.
2013 - Present	Fault Tolerance in Multi-Core Processors Implementation of Fault-Tolerance in commercially available desktop processors with little or no hardware change. Anna University (MIT Campus) , Chennai, India
