Worked on the itu-auv/auv-software repository, delivering features and fixes across robotics, perception, and DevOps domains. Developed and optimized CI/CD pipelines using Docker and GitHub Actions, enabling cross-architecture builds and improving deployment reliability. Enhanced real-time performance in ROS-based modules by reducing IPC latency and modernized code quality enforcement with automated linting and formatting for C++, Python, and XML. Integrated Extended Kalman Filters and clustering for robust object mapping, leveraging OpenCV for camera-based perception. Addressed configuration robustness in URDF and XML, reducing runtime errors. The work emphasized maintainability, reproducibility, and scalable testing, with a strong focus on automation and code quality.

Dec 1, 2025December 2025 summary for itu-auv/auv-software: Key features delivered include URDF Configuration Robustness and XML Correctness for the AUV Description. Specifically, a default value for the 'use_models' parameter was introduced to prevent runtime issues from unknown parameters, and URDF formatting was corrected to ensure valid XML and standards compliance. Major bugs fixed encompass the runtime robustness issue related to unknown parameters and the URDF XML formatting problems. Overall impact: these changes increase deployment reliability, reduce misconfiguration risk in field operations, and improve maintainability of the AUV robot description. Technologies and skills demonstrated: ROS parameter handling, URDF/robot description practices, XML validation and formatting, and strong commit traceability.

Jul 1, 2025In July 2025, the team delivered significant Docker image improvements and stability work for itu-auv/auv-software, enabling faster deployments and more reliable field operations. The AUV Software Image Build Improvements enhanced the AUV software Docker image with updated base dependencies, reordering of build steps, environment variable updates, and a Tegra host refactor to include building a source overlay. The AUV Base Image Build Stability work stabilized the base image builds by skipping problematic rosdep packages, fixing RUN syntax, and omitting python3-opencv to avoid conflicts. These changes improve build reliability, reproducibility, and CI/CD throughput, supporting quicker iterations and reduced downtime for testing and deployment.

Apr 1, 2025April 2025 (2025-04) focused on enhancing object mapping reliability by integrating an Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) and clustering into the object mapping pipeline. The work included refactoring the object transform server to leverage the new filters for more robust object tracking and pose estimation, updating the build to include OpenCV, and delivering Python scripts for camera-based object detection and pose estimation. This set of changes improves tracking accuracy, enables scalable mapping, and provides a solid foundation for downstream perception and localization features.
