Worked on the WATonomous/humanoid repository to deliver advanced humanoid arm and hand control systems, focusing on task-space manipulation and robust simulation. Developed a 6-DOF arm configuration with initial joint states and actuator settings, and refactored simulation scripts for stability. Enhanced real-time communication by improving the CAN interface and integrating ROS2, while implementing a PCA-based hand simulation with safety features such as joint limits and self-collision avoidance. Refactored the Fabrics Controller ecosystem for maintainability, improved inverse kinematics for arm-target interactions, and simplified embedded CAN bus firmware. Utilized C, Python, and ROS2, emphasizing code quality, modularity, and documentation.
May 2026 monthly summary for the WATonomous humanoid initiative. Deliveries focused on reliability, safety, and maintainability across control interfaces, hand manipulation, and ecosystem tooling. Key outcomes include improvements to CAN interface and ROS2 integration for robust real-time communication, a PCA-based humanoid hand simulation with safety controls (joint limits, body repulsion for self-collision, and energy management), a major Fabrics Controller ecosystem refactor with submodule fixes and better documentation, IK controller enhancements for more stable arm-target interactions, and CAN bus firmware simplification to reduce firmware complexity.
