Robotics Engineer
IMB (Team support was invaluable; I learned a lot working with them.)
Integrated Mother-Board≥ Explored the Linux file system to understand software-level operations.
≥ Troubleshot debugging challenges by analyzing schematics, identifying solutions, and implementing fixes with the team.PPTL (Electronics hardware)
≥ Modified firmware to handle 2^16+ fields while maintaining compatibility.
≥ Upgraded the bootloader for new firmware support with backward compatibility.
≥ Improved the programmer (C & Python) to support both old and new firmware, reducing redundancy.
≥ Developed and tested cases to ensure firmware reliability.
Embedded Engineer
IPU Algorithm Enhancement
≥ Released a stable Image Processing Unit (IPU) version, improving accuracy from 55% to 93%.
≥ Developed a Python-based data matrix decoding algorithm, reducing "DM not found" issues.
≥ Increased decoding capabilities by 40% and accuracy by 30%.
≥ Solved challenges like uneven lighting and LED inconsistencies.Lidar Enhanced Vision Development
≥ Improved bot navigation by enabling Lidar to ignore specific objects and slow down for safety.
≥ Ensured non-human obstacles (e.g., rack legs) were ignored while detecting real obstacles.
≥ Enhanced bot safety and performance in complex environments.Lidar Diagnostics
≥ Developed and tested a module for detecting and reporting diagnostic issues.
≥ Designed test cases to verify shell placement for Lidar stability.Lidar Internal Warnings & Error Reporting
≥ Integrated a standalone C++ open-source project into a ROS-based system for error reporting.
≥ Extended functionality to work with the navigation interface (non_rt_interface).
≥ Created JSON-based feasibility analysis for development.
≥ Designed and tested cases to log and verify internal Lidar warnings and errors.Lidar OTA
≥ Implemented Over-the-Air (OTA) firmware updates for Lidar, enabling remote updates via Windows → Server → TX2 → Lidar.
≥ Focused on networking aspects of the update process.
≥ Successfully executed and validated OTA updates.
