Worked on the ArduPilot/ardupilot repository to enhance pose estimation and odometry accuracy in GCS_MAVLink workflows. Focused on integrating covariance data from motion capture systems into pose estimation routines, which improved the precision of position and angular error calculations. Addressed a bug in odometry error computation by replacing a cubic root with a square root, resulting in more reliable and stable navigation metrics. Utilized C++ programming skills within an embedded systems and robotics context, ensuring code quality and traceability through clear commit messages. These updates provided a stronger foundation for future data-fusion features and improved operator confidence in MAV operations.
February 2026 focused on refining GCS_MAVLink pose estimation and correcting odometry error calculations in ArduPilot/ardupilot. By incorporating covariance data from motion capture into pose estimations and replacing a cubic root with a square root in error computations, we achieved more accurate and stable navigation metrics, reducing estimation drift and improving control decisions in GCS workflows. These changes enhance operator confidence and safety in MAV operations and provide a robust foundation for future data-fusion features.
