During a two-month period, Francis Costello developed and refined the Climb subsystem for the frc5024/Reefscape robotics project, focusing on safety, observability, and maintainability. He implemented subsystem initialization, integrated ultrasonic sensors with median filtering for stable distance readings, and added limit switch safeguards to prevent over-extension. Using Java and embedded systems techniques within a command-based framework, Francis centralized configuration, removed dead code, and improved climb stop logic based on sensor and encoder data. He also enhanced operator feedback by updating LED color cues for climb states. The work delivered a safer, more maintainable climb feature with clear, actionable telemetry.
