Update at last!!!
I must admit, I have been guilty of being lazy. Just cant believe, it was January since I blogged last.
Lots of things have happened since then. I moved from Edinburgh to Glasgow. In the end of April, moved from Glasgow back to Bangalore. I have to admit, I am very disoriented. I have my return ticket booked on the June 13th. I think I have had my share of the UK, infact saturated. I dont think I am going back!!!
I am now, working part time for my dad's company www.deeopl.com. I dont think I have mentioned about this earlier. It will be 10 years old this year. The market had been mainly meant for Indian defence. LCA's (Tejas) Up front control panel was designed here. It is the green display with red buttons.
The more important project is the Red Light violation system. The system consists of a camera and a licence plate recognition system. It is capable as the name suggests, captures the vehicle's licence plate automatically prints the ticket and is mailed to the address which the vehicle is registered to. Last week, we had the field trials of this near the junction of the Mysore Road signal. In two hours, the system had recorded a whooping 400+ defaulters. But the funniest thing was, this constable who was standing across the road, was taking money from these defaulters saying that they were violating traffic rules, pointing at the camera. This cop must have made 5K easily that day! Corruption at its best, I wonder when we can actually stem this. I dont know, how this will help the infrastructure problem but, should be helpful in controlling some randomness in bangalore traffic which I say is a perfect example of brownian movement.
I am starting in Wipro tommorow, so I guess my return to UK is definitely out of the window. I am looking forward to my stint in this sweat shop. Going to be some good experience. Other thing I am so looking forward is for DJ.
Again I say, I am glad to be back :)
