During January 2025, Michel Millette developed foundational hardware design assets for the robotique-udes/PCB repository, focusing on the Rover Ethernet Switch and Rover Servo Controller. Using CAD and PCB design skills, Michel created detailed STEP models and accompanying metadata to support early-stage hardware integration and future production planning. The work emphasized robust design file management and commit traceability through Git, ensuring clear version control and repository hygiene. By delivering these STEP-based hardware modules, Michel enabled downstream mechanical integration and assembly planning, establishing a solid groundwork for the rover system’s physical implementation. No bug fixes were required during this initial development phase.
