Developed and integrated a new I2C driver for the GRF250 and GRF500 lidar models within the PX4/PX4-Autopilot repository, replacing the legacy driver to streamline ongoing maintenance and improve hardware compatibility. The work involved C++ programming for driver development, implementing new enums and configuration options, and aligning the codebase with embedded systems best practices. Documentation was updated using Markdown to reflect the new driver’s features and supported parameters, ensuring clarity for end users. This effort simplified the codebase, enhanced maintainability, and prepared the driver for broader testing by validating initial functionality and adhering to PX4 documentation standards throughout development.
