PROFILE

Hemal Arora

Worked on the Stanford-AUV/RoboSub repository to enhance the sensor fusion framework by implementing a refined Generic Sensor module with a stable interface and improved plotting capabilities. Leveraged Python, C++, and YAML configuration to move covariance data into sensors.yaml, updating both the EKF and DVL modules for more robust state estimation and sensor integration. Addressed IMU bugs and streamlined calibration code to improve data integrity, while strengthening build automation through build.sh fixes and publisher reliability improvements. Updated hardware launch files to support real-time plotting, enabling better on-vehicle diagnostics and data visualization, and standardized hardware code naming for maintainability.

February 2026 – RoboSub: Strengthened the sensor fusion backbone, improved reliability, and enhanced diagnostics. Delivered a refined Generic Sensor module with a stable interface, standardized hardware code naming, and plotting readiness. Implemented covariance-driven fusion by moving covariances into sensors.yaml and updating EKF/DVL to consume them. Updated DVL integration to align with sensors.yaml covs and refreshed EKF configuration. Fixed IMU bugs and cleaned up calibration code and pubs, improving data integrity. Hardened the build and deployment workflow with build.sh and publishers fixes, plus hardware launch plotting support for better on-vehicle diagnostics.
