One major project I helped lead involved tracking down erroneous motion control signals that were making it to the robot. This involved working with multiple software teams (Android app, ROS, and Linux) to gather diagnostic information from their software components and perform packet inspection using Wireshark to determine the source and nature of the control signals. I then helped design, implement, and test a temporary network-level mitigation to ensure system functionality and safety for customer demos. I also participated in later discussions about overall software architecture changes to properly mitigate the issue.

I also performed calibration and verification of various systems on the robot including:

• Thermal cameras

• 360 camera stitching

• Motor and slip clutch torque

• Driving speed

• Motor temperature

For my Fall 2024 co-op I was in a Systems Engineering role at Teledyne FLIR Unmanned Ground Systems.

I helped design and execute tests to verify compliance with the following standards, and helped troubleshoot, design, and implement mitigations when components were not compliant.
