Education University of Engineering & Technology (UET) Lahore Bachelors of Science in Electrical Engineering GPA: 3.781/4.0 2014 - 2018 Final Year Project: Simultaneous Localization and Mapping based Autonomous Rover with Environment Surveillance Developed a mobile robot for mapping of an unknown environment while at the same time navigating the environment using the map. Occupancy grid mapping technique provided the mapping of the environment and the localization of the rover was achieved via Particle Filter algorithm. The autonomous rover was capable of mapping its environment while at the same time determining its path for localization. Additionally, it had the capability to surveil different atmospheric parameters (temperature, humidity, luminosity) as well.
