I’m Chathura Nirmal Weerasinghe. An Electronic Engineering Undergraduate, specializing in Biomedical Engineering at the University of Moratuwa. I am passionate about Wearables, Human Computer Interaction, and Edge Computing.
In my Research Experience, I previously worked as a Research Intern at the Exertion Games Lab at Monash University, supervised by Dr. Don Samitha Elvitigala and Prof. Florian 'Floyd' Mueller. My work focused on developing wearable systems, including 'VibroBits,' a vibrotactile feedback system for sports training. I also provided technical engineering support for various PhD projects, such as gaze aversion detection and lucid dream induction studies, and was involved in the research process from initial analysis to manuscript revision. .
One of my notable projects received a grant from the World Bank. Using ultrasound technology, our team developed a patient height-measuring device for Sri Lankan clinical systems. We successfully addressed the challenge of low reflections due to dense scalp hair by employing a K-means clustering algorithm. This project, known as MeasureUP , was commercially launched as a startup and received support from the World Bank-funded AHEAD program. Under the guidance of Dr. Ajith Pasqual, I gained comprehensive experience in medical product development, from prototyping to navigating regulatory requirements and intellectual property considerations.
In my academic background, I received bronze medals for both the Physics and Mathematics Olympiad and secured the 9th place representing Sri Lanka at the 12th Statistics Olympiad in 2020. For GCE Advanced level exam, I achieved 99th place out of 200000+ candidates in Sri Lanka, with A’s in all four subjects Maths, Physics, Chemistry, and English.
In my free time, I am interested in video and graphic designing, as well as scriptwriting and acting in dramas Here, I have attached some of my dramas. Go and see "What the Sense of Humor through an Engineering Eye is." 1."Latha.AI" , 2."Parakiyana Tharuka".
