PROFILE
Aarav Jain
Contributed to the embedded-purdue/slayterHIL repository by developing and refining real-time flight controller features for embedded systems over five months. Work included integrating IMU, LiDAR, and BNO055 sensors, centralizing data processing, and modularizing device drivers to improve maintainability and responsiveness. Enhanced system stability through PWM tuning, UART reconfiguration, and sensor calibration, while reducing CPU overhead by streamlining logging. Employed C and Python for firmware and data processing, leveraging Zephyr RTOS and build system configuration to ensure reliable operation. Also improved onboarding and documentation, supporting knowledge transfer and collaboration. Delivered six features and one bug fix with a focus on robust, maintainable code.

Apr 1, 2026April 2026 monthly summary for embedded-purdue/slayterHIL. Focused on delivering a consolidated Flight Controller System enhancement and reducing system overhead to improve stability, accuracy, and performance. Implemented PWM tuning and Euler angle adjustments for improved motor response; refined sensor configurations for higher control accuracy; reconfigured UART pins for reliable ESP32-S3 communication; and removed unnecessary logging to reduce CPU overhead and improve cycle time. Key work was driven by iterative fixes across low-level drivers and integration points to ensure robust operation in real-time flight scenarios.
