Shih Ting Tai
Over six months, contributed to UCSolarCarTeam/Helios-Telemetry by building and refining features across both front-end and back-end systems. Developed real-time telemetry delivery using MQTT and explored WebSocket integration for Grafana dashboards, leveraging TypeScript and Node.js for robust asynchronous data processing. Enhanced the UI with theme-aware styling, improved dark mode support, and stabilized visual consistency using React and Tailwind CSS. Implemented Grafana Snapshot Management, adding new API routes and database tables to streamline dashboard reproducibility. Focused on maintainability by cleaning up unused UI elements and aligning dependencies, resulting in a more reliable, accessible, and scalable telemetry platform for solar car analytics.

Apr 1, 2026April 2026 – UCSolarCarTeam/Helios-Telemetry: Delivered Lap Telemetry: Average Motor Wattage feature, enabling calculation of AverageMotorWattage during laps and surfacing TotalMotorWattage alongside per-lap energy metrics. Updated lap data formats to surface AverageMotorWattage in formatted data and cleaned data models by removing a duplicate AverageMotorWattage field from interfaces. Impact: enhanced per-lap energy profiling, enabling more accurate power usage analytics, better drivetrain tuning insights, and improved range estimation.

Jan 1, 2026January 2026: Focused on evaluating and enabling real-time telemetry delivery for UCSolarCarTeam/Helios-Telemetry. Delivered an MQTT-based publishing pipeline for lap data with asynchronous processing and robust error handling, establishing a reliable path for real-time dashboards. Explored a WebSocket-based real-time data path for Grafana integration, including environment-driven configuration and a reusable WebSocket class, and created Grafana Telemetry Visualizer setup documentation; this WebSocket approach was subsequently rolled back to preserve stability while reassessing the real-time strategy. Performed maintenance work to improve code health by removing unused dependencies and aligning runtime/build dependencies. Resulting work positions the telemetry stack for scalable real-time insights and faster issue detection, with a clear plan for future real-time improvements.

Oct 1, 2025October 2025 monthly summary for UCSolarCarTeam/Helios-Telemetry focused on UI reliability and visual correctness under Dark Mode and improved control semantics. Key UI fixes included dynamic material handling for car components when the isClear prop is active, and color accuracy for dark mode icons (including parking brake). Also corrected map controls markup to use appropriate semantic elements, enhancing accessibility and maintainability. These changes improve user experience in dark contexts and stabilize visual presentation across the telemetry dashboard.
