Skills and Tools

Projects

Caffeine
Won the 2nd place Prize at Start Hacks for this product which prevents people from being unattentive while driving their car. Used the Muse headband to get brain-wave and acclerometer data which was utilized in an Android application to alert the user whenever they are found to be unattentive.
March, 2017
Earth Dictionary
Succesfully solved NASA's SpaceApps challenge to create a crowd-sourced one-stop for all scientific definitions. The Earth Dictionary not only stores definitions, but each search has proper links to published research papers for scientists and other people to cite in their works.

Euphorify
A web application written in Node.js, built at PennAppsXV Ad Astra, which analyzes all your Facebook posts and then generates a collage of your most 'euphoric' moments. Used the Facebook Graph API to get user data, Microsoft Emotion API to perform sentiment analysis and deployed a node server to process this data.
January, 2017
Cyphotron
Implemented a 256 bit cryptosystem using the popular RSA algorithm in Java. Used the BigInteger data type for storing integers dynamically. RSA is a scalable and asymmetric encryption algorithm with a public key to encrypt the message and a secured private key to decrypt it.
March, 2017
ReactOnFly
A Chrome extension built at HackPrinceton which automatically 'reacts' to posts on your Facebook newsfeed if you are smiling while looking at them. Used PyGame to take photos of the user which is uploaded to Microsoft Azure, the Microsoft Cognitive Services API for emotion recognition and, Python-Flask for back-end.
November, 2016
Archify
A 'ready for emergency' Android application which automatically requests help from the nearest and best rated hospital around you and also notifies your family doctor. Your medical records are also sent to the hospital in order to ensure quick remedy. Worked on the back-end with Java and designed an algorithm which determines the best hospital based on a number of factors.
