During a three-month period, Chang Budman developed and refactored core robotics features for the DeepBlueRobotics/RobotCode2025 repository, focusing on modularity, maintainability, and real-time control. He migrated the AlgaeEffector subsystem to SparkFlex motors, restructured command and subsystem logic, and enhanced arm positioning with trapezoidal motion profiles and dynamic PID tuning via Smart Dashboard. Using Java and Gradle, Chang consolidated constants, clarified command responsibilities, and integrated system identification routines for precise calibration. His work improved hardware reliability, streamlined configuration, and established clear subsystem boundaries, enabling faster development cycles and laying a robust foundation for future autonomous and scalable robotics capabilities.
