Developed core embedded firmware features for the waterloo-rocketry/cansw_processor_canards repository, focusing on reliable sensor data acquisition, telemetry integrity, and robust error handling. Over three months, delivered enhancements such as multi-channel ADC scanning, per-sensor launch detection, and unified telemetry logging, leveraging C, C++, and Python for cross-language parser alignment. Improved system resilience by refactoring error codes, standardizing data structures, and implementing quaternion-based orientation to avoid gimbal lock. Strengthened CI/CD pipelines and unit testing to ensure maintainability and safe field operation. The work established a solid foundation for future power sensing, streamlined debugging, and consistent data across firmware and analysis tools.
