  • App based Garden Bot for Regulation of Water Level in plants , 2016 International Conference on Signal Processing and Communication

    Published on: Aug 27, 2016

    An automated irrigation system is developed to optimize the use of water for plants and verify water scarcity problem. It is difficult to manually assess the amount of moisture required in the soil for the healthy growth of plants therefore the soil is either left dry for a long period of time, or flooded unnecessarily hence both destroy the nutrients and minerals from the soil that are vital for the plants. In this paper app based garden bot is developed for the automatic regulation of water level in plants. The system uses Raspberry Pi board as a base and low cost capacitive sensors for providing the low power consumption and cost effective solution to automatic irrigation of plants. The system is programmed using Python and Java based App where the communication between them is carried out based on the concept of socket forwarding.

  • The Naga's Saturnalia: Festivities and Celebrations of Nagaland  , DU Journal of Undergraduate Research and Innovation

    Published on: May 01, 2015

    If India is a country that boasts of "unity in diversity", then the North-East is its most visible embodiment. As its 16 major tribes hold their festivals each calendar month of the year, Nagaland is often referred to as the 'land of festivals'. The festivals are mostly related to agricultural operations.
    The main objective of the study was to explore this rich culture of celebrating festivals among the various tribes, the way they preserve, promote their traditions and culture in the face of the ruthless wind called "Modernization".

    Bhanvi is talent with great engineering and communication skills. This makes her capable to handle projects on both technical and management level. She is a potential to many opportunities, not limited to the current expertize - the sky is the limit!

  • Samar Agrawal

    Bhanavi is meticulous in terms of her work. While she always looks to move quickly and deliver ahead of time, she does that by not losing sight of quality. The solutions proposed by her usually involve a good amount of thinking in terms of usability and aesthetics. She puts in a lot of efforts to understand projects and takes an equal amount of ownership to make it to the finish line. A great asset in any team.

  • Muhammed Sabith Badakkan

    Me and Bhanavi worked together for internal and seller products at noon. One of the qualities I always liked about Bhanavi was the problem solving ability. She is very good at understanding problem and will have a logical solution for that. She has good knowledge on the domain and seeks knowledge from wherever she can. Working with her was really a good experience.

  • Ravi Kumar

    Bhanavi is a self-driven, fun-loving, team player who brings her A-game and her cheerful self to everything from Scrum meetings, programming challenges, and brainstorming sessions. She started in one of our squads as a front-end engineer and soon made herself a vocal yet balanced advocate for React as the front-runner amongst our choices for a front-end framework. Can't wait for our end users to sample some of her work in the Mawani product. An asset in any product engineering squad and quick to adapt to any business domain (having chomped through the complex cross-border logistics industry for her appetizers), I endorse Bhanvi's passion for her work and her commitment to a better experience for users of digital products.

  • Gourish Amonkar

    I have worked with Bhanvi on a product engagement with DP World. She led the front end development for the product. It was a great experience working with her to get the best user experience to the end-users. She is accurate with her analysis and is effective in communicating the ideas with the entire dev team. I liked her user-centric approach and willingness to quickly learn and adapt to new ideas with collaboration with the UX team. I am sure Bhanvi would be a great addition to agile teams trying to build a customer-centric product with great usability.

  • Tejashwi Kalp Taru

    I worked with Bhanavi as a team leader for almost a year and when we recruited her as a PHP backend developer, she quickly developed the required skills and excels at the given tasks. In that one year, I've seen her not only excel at the core elements of her job but also learn new skills that extends beyond her role. Quickly she was promoted to the JavaScript team where she learned more advanced skills like realtime application development. She always had a positive attitude towards the job and the team. I wish her all the best for her future endeavors, and her next employer will surely be lucky to have her.

  • Nipun Senadheera

    Bhanavi was on my team while at noon - and is one of the fastest learners that I know.
    Throw anything at her, and she'd crack it in record time.
    She managed to learn and master React while with us, and later on, TypeScript; showing a good affinity to grasping new tech.
    Also a team player and super motivated to get things done, and vibe up the culture at office.

    If you've never hummed at office, she's the one to learn from (or so I hear)

  • Ali Khalid Rana

    Having worked with Bhanavi for over 2 years; all I have are just praises. An great engineer with an equally kick ass personality to boot with. She is one of the few engineers I know that will go over and above the call of duty to ensure their product was built/designed/used correctly - which in my opinion defines her passion towards her work. Will always be an asset on any team she works for!

  • Ellanie Oray

    Working with Bhanvi is a pleasure. If she does not know something, she asks without fear of being projected as unknowledgeable. She has the confidence you can only see in young women who will go far in their careers. Whenever I work in a task or project with her, I don't worry a lot because I know she'll finish it up before I even get to have a chance at following up. She shares her knowledge with those around her and takes pleasure in listening to new learnings. I wish you all the best in all your endeavors and keep on being you.
