About

Saravanakumar A is a Technical Architect at Nozomi Embedded Innovation Lab, Tata Consultancy Services (EIS), with over 10 years of experience in Firmware Digital Signal Processing Engineering. He has expertise in Advanced Driver Assistance (ADAS) Algorithm Development, including Computer Vision and Radar Signal Processing, in the Automotive industry. Additionally, he has experience in Compression Algorithm Development for Audio, Video, and Speech in the Broadcast industry. Saravanakumar is an expert in porting algorithms to different DSP Platforms, including Multi-Core, Floating Point, and SIMD, and optimizing them on C, intrinsic, and Assembly level. He has developed Computer Vision Algorithms such as Feature Implementation using Machine Learning, 2D Construction using Stereo Camera BM-SGBM, Tracking of Objects, Sparse Optical Flow-Kalman Filter, Surround View Camera Image Stitching, Image Enhancement-2D filter design, and Clustering of Images. Furthermore, he has developed Radar Signal Processing Algorithms for 77GHz Multimode Radar, including Lane Change Assist-LCA and Front Cross Traffic Alert-FCTA. He has knowledge in RSP Layers such as Range FFT Calculation, Doppler FFT, Digital Beam forming, and Tracker Layers such as SR MR fused tracker and Kalman filter. Saravanakumar has hands-on experience with ISO26262 functional safety software and has developed Compression Algorithms for Audio, Video, and Speech. He has ported Compression Algorithms to Analog Devices processors such as BF533, BF561 & Sharc with AVR Frame Work, TI Davinci DM6467 with Codec Engine Frame Work, and QDSP6. Saravanakumar's current role involves developing Computer Vision Algorithms for Traffic Light Detection, Traffic Sign Recognition, Pedestrian Detection, Vehicle Detection, Surround View Monitoring, Object Tracking, Stereo Calibration, Disparity Algorithms, and Distance Measurement. He also works on PreProcessing tasks such as Image Enhancement and Clustering. He ports these algorithms to TDA2x, optimizes them on C66x and Embedded Vector Engine (EVE), and integrates Stereo Camera in TDA2x. He also works on Functional Safety ISO26262 software for Autoliv airbag systems. Saravanakumar has a Master of Engineering degree in Applied Electronics from the College of Engineering and a Bachelor of Engineering degree in Electrical and Electronics Engineering from Sona College of Technology. His technical skills include Senior Software Engineering, Computer Vision, OpenCV, and Machine Learning.
