Idasu Ozdemir developed and refined core robotic control features for the mcgill-robotics/rover-2025 repository, focusing on robust operator interfaces and reliable embedded systems. Over four months, Idasu implemented gamepad-driven speed and pan-tilt camera control using ROS 2 and Python, integrating JSON-based configuration for flexible speed management and gear logic. He expanded drivetrain capabilities with tank drive mode, fault handling, and a ROS service for querying motor status, standardizing input data for safer operation. His work also included refactoring arm firmware architecture and standardizing position command APIs, resulting in more maintainable, testable, and field-ready robotic control systems.

May 1, 2025May 2025 was focused on enabling robust operator control and real-time rover visibility through integrated drive-speed publishing and pan-tilt camera control. Delivered a turnkey solution that publishes drive speeds, initializes the drive interface, and provides a PanTiltController ROS node that maps gamepad inputs to camera pan/tilt, streamlining remote operation and reducing setup time for field runs. This work lays the foundation for more responsive teleoperation and improved mission safety.

Feb 1, 2025February 2025 monthly summary for mcgill-robotics/rover-2025: Delivered initial rover speed control system with gamepad-based input in ROS 2. The feature loads max speed levels from a JSON config and supports acceleration, deceleration, and gear shifting for smoother, safer rover operation. Completed and committed the speed_control script and integrated it with the input handling. This work establishes a robust control interface and prepares the project for automated testing and future enhancements.
