Skills

I offer professional consultancy and participation in web development, IoT-based projects and PCB design and fabrication. I also develop engineering project designs with fusion 360

IoT

Applications include wearables, health, traffic monitoring, fleet management, agriculture, hospitality, smart grid and energy saving and water supply.

Web Development

Applications include web-mail, online retail sales, online banking, online auctions and personal and professional websites.

PCB Design and Fabrication

Printed circuit boards (PCBs) are used to mechanically support and electrically connect electronic components using conductive pathways, tracks or signal traces etched from copper sheets laminated onto a non-conductive substrate, employed in the manufacturing of business machines and computers, as well as communication, control and home entertainment equipment.

Fusion360

Fusion 360 is a cloud-based CAD/CAM tool for collaborative product development. Fusion 360 enables exploration and iteration on product ideas and collaboration within distributed product development team. Fusion 360 combines organic shapes modelling, mechanical design and manufacturing in one comprehensive package.

Python and Data Science

Data science is the field of applying advanced analytics techniques and scientific principles to extract valuable information from data for business decision-making, strategic planning and other uses. Its applications include: Fraud and Risk Detection, Healthcare, Internet Search, Targeted Advertising, Website Recommendations, Advanced Image Recognition, Speech Recognition, and Airline Route Planning.

Machine Learning

Machine learning is a branch of artificial intelligence (AI) and computer science which focuses on the use of data and algorithms to imitate the way that humans learn, gradually improving its accuracy. Its applications include: Image Recognition: Image recognition, Speech Recognition, Traffic prediction, Product recommendations, Self-driving cars, Email Spam and Malware Filtering, Virtual Personal Assistant, and Online Fraud Detection
