Hello There!
I'm a passion driven senior from the UAE, planning to major in Computer Science. I've won the regionals and came runner up in FLL UAE, by creating an AI model to detect Leading Edge Erosion using YOLOv8. Recently won the Conrad Innovator Award and working on a software to encrypt data through a homomorphic lattice-based encryptor.

Projects
Projects that reflect my passion for technology and creativity.
Financial Homomorphic Lattice Encryptor (FHLE)
Developing an encryption scheme based on lattice cryptography, focusing on the Shortest Vector Problem (SVP) for enhanced security.
Implementing homomorphic encryption to ensure sensitive information remains encrypted during data transmission and computation.
Secured data transmissions to and from servers, mitigating risks of data leaks.
Safe and Secure Concerts (SSC)
Location & Vitals Tracking Band for ConcertsDeveloped an armband using RPi Zero 2W to track location via Bluetooth Low Energy in a concert setting.
Incorporated vital sign measurements and relayed both location and vitals to a central server using SOCKETS.
Visualized real-time data graphically on a central server for enhanced monitoring & event safety.
AI-Reparo
AI System to Tackle Leading Edge Erosion (LEE)Developed AI-Reparo, a hybrid solution using AI-powered drones to address Leading Edge Erosion in wind turbines.
Designed and deployed two types of drones: lightweight detection drones and heavyweight fixing drones.
Integrated fixing drones to apply Unsaturated Polyester for erosion repair on turbine blades. Used the integration of Image Binarization and YOLO-v8.
Project Poseidon
Robotic System To Combat EutrophicationDeveloped a centralized robotic system to address the effects of eutrophication in water bodies.
Designed an automated solution for testing and treating eutrophicated water to restore natural equilibrium.
Focused on mitigating sunlight blockage and oxygen depletion caused by eutrophication.
