Bill Yuan developed robust embedded firmware for the Anteater-Electric-Racing/embedded repository, focusing on scalable architecture, reliable telemetry, and real-time control. Over six months, he engineered features such as FreeRTOS-based task scheduling, CAN bus communication, and structured telemetry pipelines, using C and C++ to ensure deterministic behavior and data integrity. His work included modularizing motor control, implementing concurrency-safe data access, and integrating sensor data processing with signal filtering. By refactoring code for maintainability and centralizing communication protocols, Bill enabled safer diagnostics, streamlined hardware integration, and established a solid foundation for future telemetry-driven analysis and system reliability in embedded automotive applications.

11 Commits • 1 Features
Jun 1, 2025June 2025 for Anteater-Electric-Racing/embedded focused on delivering richer telemetry and rock-solid data integrity, enabling better diagnostics and decision-making. Delivered a telemetry/CAN/ISOTP overhaul with a dedicated telemetry CAN ID and a 10 ms update cycle, centralizing ISOTP handling for reliability and observability. Strengthened MCU data handling with concurrency-safe access, endianness handling, and safer APIs to reduce data corruption risk, while improving debugging and maintainability through thread fixes and debug instrumentation. Result: clearer visibility into vehicle subsystems, cleaner communication flow, and a solid foundation for telemetry-driven analysis and maintenance.

Mar 1, 20252025-03 monthly summary for Anteater-Electric-Racing/embedded focused on stabilizing CAN communications and advancing ADC integration with updated hardware support. Reverted FreeRTOS-thread-enabled CAN initialization to the prior stable behavior and removed legacy, commented-out CAN write operations in the loop, eliminating unintended CAN activity and improving loop determinism. Merged the ADC integration branch into main, updated the platform configuration to Teensy 4.0, added serial output for ADC readings to facilitate debugging, and realigned the main task initialization to improve FreeRTOS scheduling alignment. These changes reduce churn, enhance observability, and establish a solid baseline for future CAN isolation work.

Jan 1, 2025Month: 2025-01 — Built a solid firmware foundation for Anteater-Electric-Racing/embedded, focusing on scalable architecture, development workflow, and telemetry. Key outcomes include a platform and firmware scaffolding for Teensy (PIO project + boilerplate), FreeRTOS-based main loop and task architecture, fault management and telemetry infrastructure, and standardized PR/template practices. These efforts lay the groundwork for reliable hardware control, easier feature delivery (motor control scaffolding, ADC callback module), and improved maintenance.
