Apr 1, 2025April 2025 – RogueRobotics2987/Season2025: Key features delivered include light subsystem enhancements with interruptible sequences and autonomous alignment integration (AprilTag reef lineup), updated LED signaling for clearer status and power efficiency (lights off on intake release). Autonomous Coral Path improvements introduced new coral-path routines, Zone1 path refinements, orange lighting, and a tuned AprilTag alignment kp. Maintenance and stabilization work included ino-file corrections, merging with the northern auto branch, and code cleanup to improve reliability. Overall impact: improved autonomy reliability, faster reef-lineup and coral-path execution, safer ops, and clearer operator feedback. Technologies demonstrated: embedded systems (Arduino/ino), LED control, AprilTag-based localization, path planning, and joystick-based control.

Feb 1, 2025February 2025 monthly delivery for RogueRobotics2987/Season2025 focused on increasing reliability, precision, and operator efficiency across the Coral subsystem, arm/elevator controls, and climber integration. Highlights include neopixel visuals driven by a beambreak sensor with improved telemetry, direct command execution for coral positioning, expanded elevator presets and input mappings with CAN ID/angle refinements, and the introduction of a Climbers subsystem with apriltag-based reef navigation. These changes collectively enhance field reliability, reduce control latency, and enable new mission profiles.
