‘ SENSING & AUTOMATION You’re either the one that creates the automation or you’re getting automated. - Tom Preston Werner ’ Founder of GitHub Sensing & Automation Division acts as a bridge between the virtual and the physical world. Using various sensors and actuators it allows the abstract algorithms of AI Division to come to life in the physical world. SENSING AUTOMATION Sensing Subdivision deals with acquisition, calibration and manipulation of data from a plethora of sensors. The data is acquired in real-time with the help of microcontroller units (MCU). This unit also works on Signal Processing and Multisensor Data Fusion for localization and odometry, apart from PCB designing (through-hole and SMD) and power electronics. Automation Subdivision deals with various actuators, embedded systems, interfacing, communication systems and intelligent controllers. This unit works with various microcontroller architectures like AVR and ARM along with RTOS. Intelligent controllers have been designed for the simulation and implementation of Neuro-fuzzy algorithms on these microcontroller platforms. 04
