Hai To contributed to the tiiuae/px4-firmware and apache/nuttx repositories, focusing on embedded systems and robotics. Over five months, he enhanced simulation fidelity and CAN bus reliability by refactoring CAN message filtering, improving rover interface initialization, and expanding Hardware-in-the-Loop (HITL) and Software-in-the-Loop (SITL) test coverage. Using C++ and CMake, Hai introduced enum-based airframe identification and parameterized ESC failure handling, which improved maintainability and test robustness. He also implemented CAN ID filtering for the i.MX9 FLEXCAN driver in Nuttx, aligning PX4 Rover CAN initialization with upstream changes. His work demonstrated depth in driver development and real-time systems.

In 2025-10, delivered two critical CAN-related improvements across Nuttx and PX4 firmware, enhancing reliability and upstream compatibility. Key outcomes include enabling CAN ID filtering on the i.MX9 FLEXCAN driver with a basic single-ID mask filter, introducing new ioctl-based filter management, and aligning the PX4 Rover CAN initialization with upstream Nuttx changes to ensure correct bitrate configuration. These changes reduce runtime message noise, improve determinism of CAN message processing, and ease future integration with Nuttx, delivering business value through more robust hardware abstraction layers and faster system bring-up.
