2025-08 monthly summary: Focused on extending the Vehicle Communication Bridge in concordia-fsae/firmware to support new data definitions for Temperature, Motor Position, and Torque. This enables data exchange from the 'ass' (auxiliary) system to the 'veh' (vehicle) bus, enhancing telemetry, diagnostics, and cross-subsystem visibility. The feature was delivered via a single change set that added bridge messages (commit: c457d9f89db256f93da6c7022b0bf82599abb2e6). No major bugs fixed this month; where applicable, minor issues were reviewed and logged for upcoming sprints. Tech stack and skills demonstrated include embedded firmware development, bridge configuration, message bus design, data schema evolution, and Git-based collaboration with clear, traceable commits for future audits.
