Developed and delivered a ROS-integrated actuator servo control feature for the mcgill-robotics/auv-embedded-2025 repository, enabling both external and automated control of the base actuator. The work involved creating a foundational ROS node in C++ that constrained servo positioning between 0 and 180 degrees via a dedicated topic, alongside implementing base actuator code to receive and apply position commands. A new subscriber was introduced to support automatic servo sweeping and updated topic listeners. This integration emphasized maintainability and clear topic-based interfaces, providing improved experimental automation, remote operability, and a robust platform for future ROS-driven embedded robotics workflows.
April 2025: Delivered a ROS-integrated actuator servo control feature for mcgill-robotics/auv-embedded-2025, enabling external and automated control of the base actuator via ROS. Implementations include a foundational ROS node with 0-180° constrained positioning via the 'servo_position' topic, base actuator code to receive position commands, and a new servo sweep subscriber with updated position listener topics. The work consolidates multiple commits into a single, user-facing capability: external ROS control of the actuator servo for both manual positioning and automatic sweep. No major bugs reported; the integration emphasizes maintainability and clear topic-based interfaces. Business value includes improved experimental automation, remote operability, and a robust foundation for further ROS-driven control workflows.
