Clair Wang enhanced the lobstahbots/2025-Robot-Code repository by developing parameterized motor control for the EndEffector subsystem, enabling external command-driven speed adjustments and introducing new commands for outtake operations. Using Java and a command-based framework, Clair implemented modular subsystem design and hardware abstraction, including a new Ramp subsystem with defined speed and current limits configured via SparkMax. These changes improved the reliability and maintainability of robot control pathways, reduced operator workload, and supported future automation. Clair’s work demonstrated strong embedded systems skills and clear commit practices, resulting in more scalable, traceable, and maintainable robotics code without introducing new bugs.
