Haashim R. developed embedded firmware for the MacRover/maxwell repository, focusing on relay control for the Raspberry Pi Pico within the ROR subsystem. Using C++ and leveraging expertise in embedded systems and microcontrollers, Haashim addressed noise sensitivity issues and implemented firmware-based ON/OFF signal handling to improve relay reliability. The work established a more deterministic approach to relay operations, facilitating easier field maintenance and tighter hardware–software integration. Over the course of a month, Haashim completed a full debugging and iteration cycle for this feature, demonstrating depth in firmware development and a methodical approach to solving hardware reliability challenges in embedded environments.
