Over three months, contributed to mcgill-robotics/rover-embedded-2025 by building and enhancing core embedded communication systems for robotics. Developed a robust USB-UART subsystem and a unified UART communication system for the Nucleo board, leveraging C, C++, and DMA configuration to enable reliable, high-throughput data transfer across multiple peripherals. Improved buffer management and implemented interrupt-driven reception to support variable-length messages and real-time data processing. Expanded Python-based testing frameworks, introducing a flood tester and latency measurement suite to streamline debugging and performance monitoring. These efforts strengthened hardware-software integration, improved data integrity, and established scalable foundations for future rover platform enhancements.
