Adith Jagadish Boloor

Adith Jagadish Boloor was born in Mangalore, India. He grew up tinkering with toys and gadgets that kindled his interest in how things work. His admiration for science and technology, specifically in the fields of robotics, 3D printing, and smart systems, grew into a passion that he is working towards, nurturing it into a career. He completed his higher studies at Purdue University, USA and Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China and is working towards obtaining a masters degree in robotics. Adith has experience working on robots ranging from simple obstacle—avoiding robots built at home to complex humanoid robots such as the Darwin-OP in Purdue University's research lab. He has coauthored a research paper and has two patents on his name. He enjoys traveling and grabs every opportunity he can to explore the different parts of the world. He is also an international chess player.

Summary


Although no summary can do justice to the amount of knowledge you have obtained from this chapter, let us try our best. After learning, in the previous chapter, about how relays function and how the CC3000 works, we programmed them to work in unison. We were able to control the relay and in turn a home appliance by using a terminal on our computer and smart phone. In addition to that, we used some apps to directly control the relay through aesthetically pleasing GUIs. Then, we learned about speech recognition and understood how accurate (or inaccurate) it can be. We then used it to control the very same relay. Finally, we put together everything we have learned, in order to control four home appliances (with the help of our electrician friend), using the terminal, smart phone, and speech recognition. Finally, we built a complete home automation system.

In the next chapter, we will be building and programming a robot dog. This is one of my favorite projects because you can program...
