sl-perception	24340dea9b	feat(social): add 68-point Kalman landmark smoother (Issue #227) ... Adds per-person constant-velocity Kalman filter that smooths raw 68-point facial landmarks and republishes on /social/faces/landmarks_smooth at input rate. New FaceLandmarks / FaceLandmarksArray messages added to saltybot_social_msgs. 21/21 pure-Python tests pass (no ROS2 required).

sl-controls	173b538f44	feat(controls): Priority-based cmd_vel multiplexer (Issue #228) ... Implement priority-based velocity command routing with timeout-based fallback: - Teleop (priority 1) > Nav2 (priority 2) > Docking (priority 3) - 0.5s timeout per source: inactive sources are skipped in priority selection - When no source is active, publish zero command for safety Features: - 50Hz multiplexing frequency with configurable parameters - JSON status publishing (/saltybot/cmd_vel_mux_status) for telemetry - Automatic priority escalation: teleop preempts nav2, nav2 preempts docking - Fallback chain: if teleop times out, nav2 takes over; if nav2 times out, docking active - Zero command safety: all sources timeout = immediate motor stop Test Coverage: - 20+ unit tests covering enum, initialization, subscriptions - Priority selection logic (teleop preemption, nav2 preemption) - Timeout detection and source fallback - Realistic scenario tests (teleop release, priority escalation chains) - JSON status format validation Config: frequency=50Hz, source_timeout=0.5s Co-Authored-By: Claude Haiku 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-03-02 12:01:00 -05:00

sl-controls	4730ea46d1	feat: Add Issue #223 - Motor current protection (I^2R thermal derating) ... Monitors motor current, detects overcurrent (soft 5A, hard 8A), models thermal state using I^2R heating model, and applies speed derating for safe operation. Overcurrent Protection: - Soft limit: 5A (warning, trigger speed derating) - Hard limit: 8A (fault, immediate shutdown) - Monitors both left and right motor currents - Triggers emergency stop on hard fault Thermal Derating (I^2R Model): Heat generation: P_loss = I^2 * R (both motors combined) Heat dissipation: P_cool = cooling_constant * ΔT Temperature dynamics: dT/dt = (P_loss - P_cool) / thermal_mass Temperature-based speed derating: - Full speed at ambient temperature - Linear derating from 25°C to 80°C limit - Aggressive derating near 80°C limit - Zero speed at or above 80°C Combined Protection: - Speed derate = min(current_derate, thermal_derate) - Hard fault → 0% speed (immediate stop) - Soft fault → gradual derating based on current - High temperature → gradual derating approaching zero - Provides protective action before damage Published Topics: - /saltybot/motor_protection (std_msgs/String) - JSON status * state (NORMAL/SOFT_FAULT/HARD_FAULT) * current_left, current_right, current_max (A) * motor_temp (°C) * soft/hard limits - /saltybot/speed_limit (std_msgs/Float32) - Thermal derate [0, 1] Subscribed Topics: - /saltybot/motor_current_left (std_msgs/Float32) - Left motor (A) - /saltybot/motor_current_right (std_msgs/Float32) - Right motor (A) Package: saltybot_motor_protection Entry point: motor_protection_node Frequency: 50Hz (20ms cycle) Thermal Model Parameters: - Motor resistance: 1.5 Ω - Thermal mass: 100 J/°C - Ambient temperature: 25°C - Max safe temperature: 80°C - Cooling constant: 0.05 1/s Features: ✓ Multi-motor current monitoring (worst-case approach) ✓ I^2R Joule heating with passive cooling ✓ Exponential temperature dynamics ✓ Two-level overcurrent protection ✓ Combined current+thermal derating ✓ Soft fault duration tracking ✓ Automatic recovery on current drop ✓ JSON telemetry with state and metrics Tests: 25+ unit tests covering: - ThermalModel initialization and parameters - Current subscription and clamping - Overcurrent detection (soft, hard) - Fault recovery and state transitions - Joule heating calculation (I^2R) - Temperature rise and cooling - Speed derating (normal, soft fault, thermal, hard fault) - Derate clipping and bounds - JSON status format - Realistic scenarios (thermal rise, overcurrent spike, asymmetric loading) - Combined current+thermal derating Co-Authored-By: Claude Haiku 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-03-02 11:57:17 -05:00
