Nikash Malhotra developed and refined core control features for the firebots-software/2025-reefscape robotics project, focusing on arm manipulation and subsystem reliability. He introduced a modular ArmSubsystem in Java, enabling precise angle-based positioning and reset-on-trigger behaviors, and refactored constants to centralize configuration for maintainability. Nikash also implemented a command-based approach to stabilize coral positioning after momentum, using motor control and subsystem readjustment methods to ensure reliable automation. By centralizing elevator sensor offsets, he improved consistency in distance calculations. His work demonstrated depth in subsystem design, control systems, and embedded systems, resulting in more predictable deployment and easier future enhancements.
