Muhammad Umair Khan Embedded Systems Engineer Virtual Fitness Coach An application that generates analytical analysis reports of an activity/exercise done by a user using Kinect’s depth sensor. It calculates speed, position and orientation of a number of joints and compares them with pre-saved standard values. Introduction I am a hardworking individual focused on constantly improving and expanding my horizons in terms of knowledge and expertise. With this paradigm, I have worked with a reputed research organization as an embedded systems engineer for a number of years, besides working on some independent design projects. Display System for Visually Impaired The idea is to develop a hand-held “display” on which different shapes can be recognized by touch. A depth camera builds a 3D image of the environment which is then transferred to the display to help the visually impaired navigate easily. Academics 2019 MS Mechatronics and Control Engineering University of Engineering and Technology (UET), Lahore 2015 BS Electrical Engineering Pakistan Institute of Engineering and Applied Sciences (PIEAS), Islamabad Surveillance Robots This project includes development of two semi-autonomous wheeled robots which will be able to collect information in crowds and public spaces and make intelligent decisions based on collected data. Experience Jan 2021 till Present This position encompasses designing and developing some commercial health care products. I am responsible for leading the design from just an idea to a proof-ofconcept, to a finished marketable product. Sep 2016 till Dec 2020 Presented Paper Mukadia LLC (Robotics Design Engineer) Al-Khawarzimi Institute of Computer Science, UET (Research Officer: Research and Development of Embedded Systems) Projects: Multi-DoF DC Motor Design of a novel actuator that is capable of motion with 3 Degrees of Freedom. The scope of project includes mathematical and CAD modeling, controller design simulations and hardware fabrication. Quantifiable VR Phobia Treatment Development a VR application for treatment of different phobias with accompanying hardware that senses user’s heart rate and quantifies effectiveness of treatment and pace of improvement. “A Novel Spherical Actuator for Robotic Shoulder Joint”, International Conference on Mechanical Engineering, 2020 Key Competencies       Project Management Research Methodology PCB and Mechanical Design Well versed in hardware platforms including: o PIC o Arduino o Raspberry Pi o PLC o FPGA Programming Languages: o C o Python o Assembly o Processing o Verilog HDL Simulation and Design Softwares: o MATLAB o Autodesk Inventor o SolidWorks o Eagle CAD o Proteus o Mathematica
