March 2025 — Reefscape-2025 development delivered tangible performance, reliability, and data-quality gains across core robotics software and sensing stacks. Key features include elevator performance tuning for smoother, more energy-efficient movement; robust system health checks with status signaling and loop optimizations for faster, more reliable monitoring; Limelight integration with a new drive system ID to improve sensing and drive accuracy; a major camera transforms overhaul across parts 2-3 with enhanced telemetry and alignment support; and vision system improvements plus dashboard updates to support playoff readiness with period-specific changes. The effort also reduced log verbosity and expanded tests to improve maintainability and data quality, while enabling new hardware paths (Scoral motor) and field imagery to broaden capability and operator visibility.
