PROFILE

Deadfloppy

Contributed to the UBC-Snowbots RoverFlake2 project by developing and refining GNSS-first navigation capabilities over a two-month period. Integrated GNSS data into the rover’s ROS2 pipeline by implementing a node that reads NMEA/GGA data from serial input, parses it, and publishes standardized NavSatFix messages, while deprecating legacy camera-based navigation scripts to streamline the codebase. Addressed a critical bug by correcting GNSS topic naming and aligning saved point timestamps with user actions, improving data integrity for analytics. The work demonstrated proficiency in C++, Python scripting, ROS2, and GNSS data processing, resulting in a more reliable and maintainable navigation system.
