- New rov_simulation package (dev only — not for vehicle deployment)
- mock_publisher: synthetic MAVROS sensor data with 5 test scenarios
(nominal, low_battery, comms_loss, depth_warning, all_clear)
- dev_stack.launch.py: launches mock_publisher + failsafe_monitor + mission_executor
- Scenarios trigger specific failsafe conditions for end-to-end testing
- Full mission state machine: IDLE/RUNNING/PAUSED/COMPLETE/ABORTED
- Breadcrumb buffer: 1800 entries at 2s interval (1hr coverage)
- Failsafe integration: HOVER=pause, RETURN_TO_SAFE=abort+breadcrumb, EMERGENCY=immediate abort
- Waypoint loading from YAML mission file via LOAD command
- Arrival detection with configurable radius
- Image capture loiter with configurable delay
- Simple proportional navigation toward waypoints (Phase 3+ replaces with full planner)
- Entry point recorded at mission start for safe zone reference
- Updated FailsafeStatus.msg with assessment state, FSM state, thruster_anomaly flag
- Implemented GREEN/AMBER/RED continuous self-assessment
- Dynamic assessment rates: 5Hz/20Hz/50Hz
- Full FSM: NORMAL->HOLD_AND_RECOVER->RETURN_TO_SAFE->EMERGENCY_SURFACE
- Priority-ordered failsafe conditions (8 levels per design spec)
- Tiered battery thresholds: warning/return/critical/emergency
- Conditional comms loss response based on assessment state
- Conditional manual abort response based on assessment state
- All thresholds configurable via failsafe.yaml
