Hongwei Liao developed core navigation and telemetry features for the RISDxNASA-SUITS/SUITS-25 repository, focusing on robust autonomous operations. He implemented an A* pathfinding navigator using Python and object-oriented design, consolidating navigation logic into a centralized module for maintainability and future extensibility. His work included upgrading the HTTP and networking stack, improving SSL/TLS handling, and enhancing web server reliability with updates to urllib3 and uvicorn. In addition, he expanded telemetry data parsing and display using TypeScript and backend development skills, improving mission monitoring accuracy and user experience. The work demonstrated technical depth in both algorithmic and system-level engineering.
