Sled Track

A computer vision system that measures sled position, velocity, and acceleration during launch testing using only camera footage. A markerless, colour-based tracking pipeline replaced the original marker-based tracker, working from standard 30 fps recordings through to high-speed footage exceeding 1000 fps.

Automated Testing of Flight Hardware

A Python terminal application that automates flight hardware characterisation testing, using a Cube Orange+ flight controller as both a control interface and data-acquisition platform. Test procedures are defined in YAML, safety limits are enforced within the hardware communication layer, and a simulation mode with an automated pytest suite allows validation without physical hardware.
