Pathing

Balaji Leninrajan Evan Zhao

• Evan Zhao Finding water route PR under review – but more scrutiny is also needed for double-checking validity of algorithm after realizing a test case was wrong – Evan

• Path_2025_task_1.py should be done by next meeting

• Slight issue with flight controller migration, not major but will take some time

• Circle mode is still being researched

Airside

Achita Anantachina Herman Gahra

• Aleksa Misic cluster estimation by labels

  • Waiting review

• Rohan Katreddy Integration test for cluster estimation

  • merged

  • To be run at ground test

• Tochi Okoro Autolanding module + worker

  • merged

• John Zhang MAVLink FTP

  • PR is updated

  • Evan Zhao Unit test from logs_to_kml failing

    • Ignore this for now

• Adrian Lock Communication unit test

  • Merged

• Siddh Patel profile performance

  • Achita Anantachina to review

  • Almost done

• Victor Huang Min brightness filter

  • Still have a min brightness filter (just at a lower threshold)

  • Implement the drop-off filter → Help reduce false detections (anything under dropoff gets cut)

• Yibo Yang Cluster estimation – filter by number of points in cluster

  • To be reviewed

• Achita Anantachina Classical CV test cases

  • To be reviewed

  • Follow up with Xierumeng

• Arpan Roy show annotated picture bug fix

MAVLink update:

• STATUSTEXT messages have strings as input (null terminated), so we cannot send the byte “0”

• Try these 3 other messages, and see if they get forwarded from flight controller (pixhawk/simulator) to ground station: https://mavlink.io/en/messages/common.html

  • DEBUG_VECT (250)

  • NAMED_VALUE_FLOAT (251)

  • NAMED_VALUE_INT (252)

• Workaround for now: base64 encoding around current bytes to have it fit in a string representation
