Engrgit Diary

Many look at me as a very serious individual, but am only human and have been developing this trait over time. While seriousness mean different things to different people, it simply means getting result and achieving focus. To stay focus, I wrote a pledge to myself and here it goes; I pledge to focus on myself To be faithful loyal and diligent To serve my goals with all my strength To defend my integrity and uphold my honor and glory So help me God.   Everything is an expression in here. While every version of me is seen. To make a perfect sale, all must speak in unison for growth of continuous improvements and must be true to your identity. Expressions in the form of Tech, Art and Code. Call it ExpressTAC The closest and fastest I can show is write (The self discovery of 2021). At the very least, it is cheaper and everyone gets the point. Going straight to the point will mean — I just want to get comfortable using every means to express myself. To waste a minute of your time will be t

Speaking of reality is different from experiencing reality. The need to make people experience reality needs to be approached as Mixed reality. A concept quickly messimerising every gamer and online collaborators.  To set course in this futuristic and meterverse endeavour, we would be designing our own reality headset.

Munawa is characterised as the bringer of light. It is a solar powered inverter system for African homes. The idea of munawa came to be as a result of engrgit trying to solve his power supply issues while building Gamol Studio. As we all konw, engrgit has a stong background in hardware development. This allowed him to plaunged into the research that lead to his first solar inverter design called Munawa. Munawa means the bringer of light in yoruba. As of daily rounties, advancing munawa as a product has begun.  Are we going commercial with this inverter technology? Yes we are. Engrgit has partnered with Oyatope Blessing (One of the best hardware developer in Africa) to automate Munawa into a full fledge product with mobile app and power customisation features. We have a brand name and story for it already. It is called Munawa (bringer of light 💥). Laso the first iteration of the mobile app is ready and currrently used in our research lab. We are also working on large scale assembling a

Everything we do is to reflect greatness. For this reason, we have created our  app digitization interface called interface of greatness.  IOG is the structural interpretation of the African Palace.  It is a UI rendition of growth, grace and greatness. Its vibe is meant  to make you feel the growth, feel the grace and feel the greatness. My artistic side is also my emotional side and it is me talking with art. Checkoja's artistic theme is one hell of an intentional story done with ai. I always try to capture the inspirations into the story of the problem we are solving. Art for the art lovers, tech for the nerds. The work should constantly be speaking to everyone. You will feel the intentionality, creativity and authenticity in my work. It is how you will know, it is engrgit's work. The english/yoruba combination, the highs and lows. The swipes and vibes. The syncs and clicks that takes you on a journey of why the whole idea matters. Everything is a cycle that speaks growth and

I attended the first day of Ogun Tech Summit 2023. Listened to the amazing speakers, networked with people and evangelized our work on checkoja nd Gamol Studio.

Today is a big moment for us @GamolStudio   because the first version of @CheckOja app is now on playstore Special thanks to everyone showing interest and support. More advanced versions coming soon. Stay tunned. - engrgit

Our locust harvesting technology is called locharv. It is simply a  drone driven, lightweight, origami deployable structure for locust fishing. At the core is our ai driven technology for locust tracking, capturing  and  notification system. Our solution is designed to capture the maximum obtainable locust per flight with its capturing net. This net is a specially designed origami net specifically for locust capturing.  Visit our website for more locharv website

Our team (led by engrgit) participated in the ARVR hackerton organised by meta, arvrafrica and imisi3D in Lagos Nigeria from Dec2 to Dec 4 of 2022. We developed an XR solution called c-reality aimed at resolving bank complains through automating customer service interactions with AR and AI Our team didn't win but we are glad for the opportunity to show what we can build with XR tech in a short timed hacker-ton.  This was just a 48 hrs hack from idea to execution. We are excited to show what is achievable in coming months. Follow on Instagram and twitter for more on the project.                                                                                  Opening Slide  Engrgit had one of the best pitches to the judges and glad about the interest and overall feedback on the project.     

It is march and everything on my plate is machine learning research. To march means to move so I will be moving with wisdom into the realm of research for the month. I hope to convert some of my works into publications and have fun in the process. I wrote my statement of purpose and also conceptualised some research proposals for my PhD work. I also learnt how to use latex and how to draft research proposals. It is turning to a very eventful month. The goal is to rekindle my dream to become a world class researcher.

My journey with systems design started with the handling of a screwdriver with a curious mind as a kid. I got fascinated by calculators that I began to repair them in secondary school. In no time, I charge my colleagues for repair of their calculators. I also lend people calculators in exams hence building a lot of social wealth in the process. With my calculator repair endeavor, I started my entrepreneurship at the age of 12.  So I called this stage The Humble Beginning   Studying Engineering I went to Obafemi Awolowo University Ile-Ife and our syllabus was 80% electronics and 20% electrical engineering by composition. The syllabus was from MIT (The best institutions in the world).  My engineering class was filled with experimentation and love for practical and group design. I had not less than a B grade in all my practical throughout. I took embedded system courses on Edx and also programing courses on Coursera. Leading School Projects * Embedded system developments with Arduino * C

When I first began to see, my parents said it began with identifying faces, metamorphose into identifying things, and much more. In the world of fantasies, if code is a spell, the smallest portion I can replicate is my eyes. Imagine if something can see on my behalf.  That is the beginning of my magic... so I thought. But the superhero in me can't be found in the flesh, it comes alive when I press the computer. The screen is not only flat but colorful and the sensor is as sharp as the eye, its detection mechanism is a set of beautiful logic I just coded. With much love from me, I called it  ojumi. Ojumi in the Making  What exactly do I wish to see? With Ojumi, the least  I hoped to see is an object, people, and places. But I write this not only for the coder but also for the mere reader.  For the coder, ojumi is a computer vision library that works with any camera to detect an object, people, and places with hardware at high speed. Ojumi Everywhere That will be the integration of L

My first introduction to research was in my 3rd year at the university while leading a team of students designing an electronic attendance system using fingerprints.  Our supervisor was   Dr. K.P Ayodele   - an excellent researcher keen on our development who revamped our mindset as we worked on the project. It all paid dividends as I scored an 87 A in the course as our team aced the defense. His research was focused on bio-instrumentation and neuro-engineering using EEG and ECG signals. I just had a lot of questions for him every time I barged into his office. Eventually, I joined his research team. Looking back, I knew nothing about research aside from my passionate curiosity, love for work, and interest in innovation. That is the typical me 🤗 #Exoloring 3D printing in the lab  We held weekly meetings of cross-disciplinary research teams of undergrad and post-grad. While attending these meetings, I picked up the nuances of research, the efficacy of good presentations, and the novelt

CheckOja is a reliable platform to check the current prices of goods in local markets across Africa. Powered by remote data routing and real-time data analytics. The goal is to create the heartbeat of the African e-commerce ecosystem that allows people to track prices at their convenience while also providing a databank for old prices and connecting millions of local markets to the internet. As a son of a farmer who has viewed this ecosystem for decades, the economic analysis of the market can be checked in terms of prices and the tech must be deployed locally. As a Yoruba boy, I call this innovation check oja which means, view market. It is debatable that price availability might not be novel enough as Jumia and other e-commerce platforms have done so for accessories especially in Nigeria. The lacuna lies in foodstuffs and local farmers who belong to the poor class of which uniquely using data analytics and AI will transform their lives. This beckons for a layer of local penetration

Endoscopy is a non surgical process used to look into hollow part of the human body. As a research assistant at Bioinstrumentation and neuro engineering lab in OAU. My goal was to be able to execute this as a final year project. A copy of my defense slide is here. Research Reviewed over 50 research papers on Endoscopy Video Processing for Medical Diagnosis. Collaborated with medical practitioners to develop the client app and video acquisition system for image processing. Worked on data preprocessing from sampling of video data into images, data labelling and model training. Built an image classification model to predict infections  in endoscopy videos using object detection.

As the community of hardware developers in Africa continues to gather momentum, it won’t be a bad idea to share some of the tricks I have found golden over the years. They might not be the most popular or theoretically-founded ideas in the pit of hardware, but they work and, common sense even concur with them. Here they are; 1.  Think First Principle. The first principle of thinking allows you to think about all parts from the fundamental laws of electronics. When a design needs verification or optimization, think of the first principle. For example: what is the voltage? What is the signal? How does this component behave under this condition? This set of thinking allows you to land the project.  While abstraction helps in designing, first principle thinking helps in debugging and scaling your designs. 2.  Think Around the Core. Most hardware developers begin projects because they have a couple of hardware components and possibly feel they can build a project with them. Build from the c
