Contagion buster contact tracing with app Integration
Some of the recent developments in data science for worldwide disease control have involved research of large-scale feasibility and usefulness of digital contact tracing, user location tracking, and proximity detection on users’ mobile devices or wearables. A centralized solution relying on collecting and storing user traces and location information on a central server can provide more accurate and timely actions than a decentralized solution in combating viral outbreaks, such as COVID-19. However, centralized solutions are more prone to privacy breaches and privacy attacks by malevolent third parties than decentralized solutions, storing the information in a distributed manner among wireless networks. Thus, it is of timely relevance to identify and summarize the existing privacy-preserving solutions, focusing on decentralized methods, and analyzing them in the context of mobile device-based localization and tracking, contact tracing, and proximity detection. Wearables and other mobile Internet of Things devices are of particular interest in our study, as not only privacy, but also energy-efficiency, targets are becoming more and more critical to the end-users. This paper provides a comprehensive survey of user location-tracking, proximity-detection, and digital contact-tracing solutions in the literature from the past two decades, analyses their advantages and drawbacks concerning centralized and decentralized solutions, and presents the authors’ thoughts on future research directions in this timely research field.

Wireless health monitoring and hospital accessing system
The COVID-19 epidemiological situation and death counts are breaking daily records. New cases are reporting everywhere and hence a situation of examining health of an affected emerges. But most of the people (especially elders) are afraid of being affected if they are approaching a health centre (or hospitals) and so back up with the decision. In addition to this, those who are suffering with severe respiratory issues are to be monitored continuously. In this project, a prototype of wireless health monitoring system capable of sending information related to the health status of the patient is developed. The project can be divided into two stages of data acquisition & processing, and Communication stages. Data acquisition & processing stage consists of sensors and microcontroller. Sensors monitor temperature, BP, SPO2 etc of the patient. The output of sensors are converted to digital form and processed by the microcontroller. The details are viewed by the patient on the display and at the same time by the software user who is linked with the microcontroller WiFi. Critical value of the measured data can be set. When they exceeds threshold, it will alert the whole system. Once abnormalities are detected, the system transmits the information to the hospital database.

Frequency controlled variable speed drive for Single Phase Induction Motor
Induction motors with a single phase are commonly utilised in household goods and industrial control. Controlling the speed of these motors allows for multispeed and multifunctional operation. The variable speed drive of an induction motor utilising the frequency control approach is the subject of this research article. It is to build a solid-state control system that is both dependable and cost-effective for usage with fractional horse power motors. The proposed variable speed drive contains a power conversion section (AC to DC and DC to AC), which employs an IRF 840 N-channel MOSFET as the switching element. To give alternating current to the motor, four IRF 840 MOSFETS are employed as H-bridge inverters. In this drive, C124 transistors and MJE 13002 transistors are used as driver circuits to drive the H-bridge inverter. In this drive, there is two power supply. The frequency control circuit and driving circuit both need a 12 V power supply. For the H-bridge inverter, a 300 V power source is employed. The frequency is controlled by a pulse width modulation SG3525A IC in this drive. For altering the speed of an induction motor, the designed variable drive circuit has a frequency range of 16 Hz to 56 Hz at a constant voltage. The driving schemes of single-phase induction motors are discussed in this research study, as well as the principle actions of components utilized in variable speed drives, as well as the design calculations needed to build this drive, are supplied. Furthermore, the experimental testing of this drive when running a single-phase induction motor with a fractional horsepower is presented.

Human Following Robot
In Robotic industry has evolved so much and has been a revolutionary in helping human being to complete certain task. Without the help of industrial robotics to produce car, cell phone or a computer, productions will suffer as time is a very important factor for businesses. Researchers around the world understand this, and there is already an artificial intelligent robot being produced. Each year, there will be new findings to create a robot that may one day behave similarly like a human being. However, this project deals with only a human following robot which makes use of a metal and an RFID to distinguish the owner of the robot and follow the person. In an environment such as hospitals, schools, and shopping malls. Having a robot assistant surely seems like a dream for most of us. A robot that can help us carry items, accompany us at shopping malls, or during a jogging session at the park. A robot that can help nurses at hospital or bringing the medical supplies during war to injured soldiers. There are so many advantages of having such robot, that in the future, it will most likely be the trends. There are a lot of research surrounding this topic. Person detection and tracking using diverse image features and classifications method. Most of this research use a fixed camera, because when using a moving camera, there is a problem with background/foreground separation. Metal detectors and RFID tags are commonly used for person detection and tracking for this type of robots. The RFID tag is used to tag the owner of the robot and follow the person without getting mislead by any other person. The human following robot can be provided with sensors like Ultra sonic and IR sensor for obstacle detection. It can be connected through RFID to receive the commands.

IoT based remote railway signaling system
Cancellation and delay of trains is a very common problem that the Railways faces during heavy fog in winters especially in Northern Regions of India. One of the key reasons for the delay is the inability of the engine drivers to see the light signals from a faraway distance. The solution aims to provide a feasible way to overcome this problem by implementing an IoT based remote railway signaling system which is highly reliable, cost efficient, scalable, and robust for practical Indian conditions. The system is divided into three phases. In the first phase, wireless transmitters (NRF modules) are installed in the signal posts along with corresponding receivers in the train engines. Therefore when the signal turns red or green, the wireless transmitter will send the signal to the train on that track approaching towards the signal. The train will receive the signal and a red or green bulb will be switched on in the engine control dashboard inside the driver’s cabin itself. The driver will thus know that the status of the signal ahead without depending on the visibility of distant light signals. The second phase couples the signal posts with a GPRS module (SIM900A) to provide internet connectivity and a connection to the AWS cloud through an IoT technology stack. This will allow Railways to set up centralized control rooms and control the signals in real time remotely. The third phase is a proposal to increase the efficiency of the system by connecting multiple signal posts to one GPRS gateway module through an ad-hoc network through LoRa technology. This phase is just a proposal for future work. The system aims to be designed to suit Indian conditions. Hence it has been made cost efficient by using only minimal components while being easy to use and scalable so that it can be implemented on a national level.

Interaction of Law and Gender in India: A jurisprudential analysis from Feminist Perspective
Feminists’ efforts in the last decade have led to the passing of much legislation including the laws on: abortion, rape, maternity benefits, equal remuneration, sexual harassment, domestic violence. In context of India, laws prohibiting sati, child marriage, dowry, right to property and other have been passed. Despite these legislations, socio-economic status of women has shown little improvement resulting from a gap between women’s formal legal rights and their continuing substantive inequality. The assumption working here is that either law is an instrument of change or that of oppression
