Sondre contributed to the vortexntnu/vortex-auv and vortexntnu/vortex-asv repositories by developing and refining features for autonomous vehicle systems. He enhanced the AUV GUI to display real-time environmental data and support configurable telemetry topics, leveraging Python, ROS2, and configuration management to improve operator awareness and data reliability. Sondre later removed the visual interface to enable headless operation, simplifying deployment and reducing maintenance overhead. For vortex-asv, he established CI/CD workflows with Codecov integration and simulator-based navigation testing using Python scripting and shell scripting, which improved test coverage and automation. His work demonstrated depth in system configuration and robust software maintenance.
