feat(firmware): Jetson binary serial protocol on USART1 (Issue #120 )
...
New jlink module replaces ASCII-over-USB-CDC jetson_cmd with a dedicated
hardware UART binary protocol at 921600 baud for reliable Jetson comms.
- include/jlink.h: JLinkState struct, jlink_tlm_status_t (20-byte packed),
command/telemetry IDs (0x01-0x07 cmd, 0x80 status), API declarations
- src/jlink.c: USART1 DMA2_Stream2_Channel4 circular RX (128 bytes),
IDLE interrupt, CRC16-XModem (poly 0x1021) frame parser state machine,
command dispatch (HEARTBEAT/DRIVE/ARM/DISARM/PID_SET/ESTOP),
jlink_send_telemetry() blocking TX (≈0.28 ms per frame)
- include/config.h: JLINK_BAUD=921600, JLINK_HB_TIMEOUT_MS=1000,
JLINK_TLM_HZ=50, FW_MAJOR/MINOR/PATCH version constants
- src/main.c: jlink_init(), jlink_process() in main loop, arm/disarm/
estop/PID flag handling, 50 Hz STATUS telemetry TX, jlink takes
priority over legacy jetson_cmd for speed/steer injection
- test/test_jlink_frames.py: 39 pytest tests (39/39 pass) — CRC16,
frame building, parser state machine, drive/PID/status encoding

feat: SaltyTank tracked chassis — drive sprockets, tensioners, skid plate ( #121 )
...
Three new chassis design files for the SaltyTank continuous-track variant:
• saltytank_chassis.scad — Deck plate (500×360×8mm Al, DXF export), 2×
side track frames (6mm Al, CNC/laser), idler tensioner sliding block,
4× CSI corner camera mounts (45°/20°), D435i front bracket (8° tilt),
stem collar (Ø25mm shared). Drive sprocket mounts accept hoverboard hub
motors with caliper-verified D-cut bore (16.11mm/13mm flat) + 52mm BC
hub flange bolt pattern. M6 tensioner bolt adjusts idler ±15mm for
track tension. Shared FC 30.5×30.5mm + Jetson 58×49mm M3 patterns.
Electronics bay footprint matches rover_electronics_bay.scad exactly.
• saltytank_skid_plate.scad — Sacrificial underside skid panel (360×500mm).
4mm HDPE (DXF) or PETG print; countersunk M4 FHCS bolt-on. 4× drain/
inspection slots; optional printed ribs (RIB_PRINT=true). Ground
clearance of hull between tracks: 90mm (exceeds 50mm requirement).
• saltytank_BOM.md — Full BOM: deck plate, side frames, drive sprockets,
idler wheels + tensioners, road wheels (2/side), track belts (1109mm
circumference calc), skid plate, sensor brackets, electronics bay
(rover_electronics_bay.scad reused unchanged). Frame mass ≈ 2.98 kg
(just under 3 kg target). Assembly sequence and track tensioning
procedure included.

Add stm32_cmd_node.py — ROS2 bidirectional bridge node:
- /cmd_vel → SPEED_STEER at up to 50 Hz
- HEARTBEAT timer (default 200ms); STM32 watchdog fires at 500ms
- Jetson-side watchdog: no /cmd_vel for 500ms → send SPEED_STEER(0,0)
- /saltybot/arm service (SetBool) → ARM frame
- /saltybot/pid_update topic → PID_UPDATE frame
- Telemetry RX: IMU→/saltybot/imu, BATTERY→/saltybot/telemetry/battery,
MOTOR_RPM→/saltybot/telemetry/motor_rpm, ARM_STATE→/saltybot/arm_state,
ERROR→/saltybot/error
- Auto-reconnect on USB disconnect (serial.SerialException caught)
- Zero-speed + disarm sent on node shutdown
- /diagnostics with serial health, frame counts, last cmd age
Add test_stm32_protocol.py (60+ tests):
- CRC16-CCITT correctness, known test vectors
- All encoder output structures and payload values
- FrameParser: all telemetry types, bad CRC, bad ETX, resync, streaming,
oversized payload, frame counters, reset
Add test_stm32_cmd_node.py (30+ tests):
- MockSerial: TX/RX byte-level testing without hardware
- Speed/steer clamping, scaling, frame structure
- Watchdog fires/doesn't fire relative to timeout
- CRC error counted, resync after garbage
Add stm32_cmd_params.yaml, stm32_cmd.launch.py.
Update package.xml (add std_srvs, geometry_msgs deps).
Update setup.py (add stm32_cmd_node entry point + new config/launch).

State machine: RC → RAMP_TO_AUTO → AUTO → RAMP_TO_RC → RC
• CH6 (axes[5] > 0.5) requests AUTO; CH6 low → RAMP_TO_RC
• Stick >10% in AUTO/RAMP_TO_AUTO/RAMP_TO_RC → instant RC (no ramp)
• Sticks neutral ≥ 2 s after override → override cleared → RAMP_TO_AUTO
• RC link lost (Joy silent > 0.5 s) → instant RC from any state
• SLAM fix lost → RAMP_TO_RC (graceful exit from AUTO)
• No AUTO entry without slam_ok AND rc_link_ok
blend_alpha: 0.0 (RC) → linear ramp over 500 ms → 1.0 (AUTO)
led_pattern: solid_yellow(RC) | blink_green_slow(ramp) |

- orchestrator_node.py: IDLE→LISTENING→THINKING→SPEAKING state machine, GPU memory
watchdog (throttle at <2GB free), rolling latency stats (p50/p95 per stage),
VAD watchdog (alert if speech pipeline hangs), /social/orchestrator/state JSON pub
- social_bot.launch.py: brings up all 4 nodes with TimerAction delays
New messages: SpeechTranscript.msg, VadState.msg, ConversationResponse.msg
Config YAMLs: speech_params, conversation_params, tts_params, orchestrator_params
Tests: 58 tests (28 speech_utils + 30 llm_context/tts_utils), all passing

feat(social): multi-modal tracking fusion — UWB+camera Kalman filter (Issue #92 )
...
New packages:
saltybot_social_msgs — FusedTarget.msg custom message
saltybot_social_tracking — 4-state Kalman fusion node
saltybot_social_tracking/tracking_fusion_node.py
Subscribes to /uwb/target (PoseStamped, ~10 Hz) and /person/target
(PoseStamped, ~30 Hz) and publishes /social/tracking/fused_target
(FusedTarget) at 20 Hz.
Source arbitration:
• "fused" — both UWB and camera are fresh; confidence-weighted blend
• "uwb" — UWB fresh, camera stale
• "camera" — camera fresh, UWB stale
• "predicted" — all sources stale; KF coasts for up to predict_timeout (3 s)
Kalman filter (kalman_tracker.py):
State [x, y, vx, vy] with discrete Wiener acceleration noise model
(process_noise=3.0 m/s²) sized for EUC speeds (20-30 km/h, ≈5.5-8.3 m/s).
Separate UWB (0.20 m) and camera (0.12 m) measurement noise.
Velocity estimate converges after ~3 s of 10 Hz UWB measurements.
Confidence model (source_arbiter.py):
Per-source confidence = quality × max(0, 1 - age/timeout).
Composite confidence accounts for KF positional uncertainty and
is capped at 0.4 during dead-reckoning ("predicted") mode.
Tests: 58/58 pass (no ROS2 runtime required).
Note: saltybot_social_msgs here adds FusedTarget.msg; PR #98
(Issue #84 ) adds PersonalityState.msg + QueryMood.srv to the same
package. The maintainer should squash-merge #98 first and rebase
this branch on top of it before merging to avoid the package.xml
conflict.

feat(social): personality system — SOUL.md persona, mood engine, relationship DB (Issue #84 )
...
New packages:
- saltybot_social_msgs: PersonalityState.msg + QueryMood.srv custom interfaces
- saltybot_social_personality: full personality node
Features:
- SOUL.md YAML/Markdown persona file: name, humor_level (0-10), sass_level (0-10),
base_mood, per-tier greeting templates, mood prefix strings
- Hot-reload: SoulWatcher polls SOUL.md every reload_interval seconds, applies
changes live without restarting the node
- Per-person relationship memory in SQLite: score, interaction_count,
first/last_seen, learned preferences (JSON), full interaction log
- Mood engine (pure functions): happy | curious | annoyed | playful
driven by relationship score, interaction count, recent event window (120s)
- Greeting personalisation: stranger | regular | favorite tiers
keyed on interaction count thresholds from SOUL.md
- Publishes /social/personality/state (PersonalityState) at publish_rate Hz
- /social/personality/query_mood (QueryMood) service for on-demand mood query
- Full ROS2 dynamic reconfigure: soul_file, db_path, reload_interval, publish_rate
- 52 unit tests, no ROS2 runtime required
ROS2 interfaces:
Sub: /social/person_detected (std_msgs/String JSON)
Pub: /social/personality/state (saltybot_social_msgs/PersonalityState)
Srv: /social/personality/query_mood (saltybot_social_msgs/QueryMood)

feat(social): Issue #86 — physical expression + motor attention
...
ESP32-C3 NeoPixel sketch (esp32/social_expression/social_expression.ino):
- Adafruit NeoPixel + ArduinoJson, serial JSON protocol 115200 8N1
- Mood→colour: happy=green, curious=blue, annoyed=red, playful=rainbow
- Idle breathing animation (sine-modulated warm white)
- Auto-falls to idle after IDLE_TIMEOUT_MS (3 s) with no command
ROS2 saltybot_social_msgs (new package):
- Mood.msg — {mood, intensity}
- Person.msg — {track_id, bearing_rad, distance_m, confidence, is_speaking, source}
- PersonArray.msg — {persons[], active_id}
ROS2 saltybot_social (new package):
- expression_node: subscribes /social/mood → JSON serial to ESP32-C3
reconnects on port error; sends idle frame after idle_timeout_s
- attention_node: subscribes /social/persons → /cmd_vel rotation-only
proportional control with dead zone; prefers active speaker, falls
back to highest-confidence person; lost-target idle after 2 s
- launch/social.launch.py — combined launch
- config YAML for both nodes with documented parameters
- test/test_attention.py — 15 pytest-only unit tests
