Over a two-month period, contributed to the nerdspark/2025_NERDSpark repository by architecting and developing a modular robot arm subsystem using Java and embedded systems principles. Established foundational control for the arm’s shoulder, elbow, wrist, and gripper, integrating velocity control, path planning, and PID tuning to enable precise, dynamic motion. Finalized kinematics constants, including wrist-to-elbow ratios and joint offsets, to ensure production-grade accuracy and maintainability. Integrated the arm subsystem with drivetrain code, supporting end-to-end workflows and future automation. Emphasized clean code, constants management, and subsystem design, resulting in a scalable, testable foundation for advanced robotics control and manipulation features.
February 2025 - NerdSpark: Delivered finalization of robot arm kinematics constants in nerdspark/2025_NERDSpark. Implemented wrist-to-elbow ratio, updated joint ratios and offsets, and removed remaining TODOs to signal production readiness. All changes captured in commit 91019710f3cf0d5cd6e5710a922c77c46e17dc97. No major bugs fixed this month. Impact: improved motion accuracy, reduced maintenance, and a solid foundation for production-grade control.
