Overview

The debugging board is a dedicated auxiliary system whose only job is to make the rest of the robot less painful to work with. 
 It is not part of the rover’s core functionality. 
 Purpose 
 At a high level, the debugging board serves roles: 
 Visibility 
 Provide real-time insight into system state: 
 logs status indicators network activity subsystem health 
 Instead of digging through serial output on multiple MCUs or adding temporary debug code everywhere, this board aggregates and presents useful information. 
 Control / Interaction 
 Todo :D 
 Isolation of debugging concerns

 Physical components 
 The exact hardware may evolve, but the debugging board generally consists of: 
 Ethernet interface 
 Connects to the system network (switch / internal bus) Receives and sends packets (including protobuf-based messages) Acts as a bridge between the debugging interface and the rest of the robot 
 Display 
 Shows system state, logs, or selected information It is a ILI9341 SPI Display 
 Used for quick, local feedback without needing a laptop. 
 Input interface (buttons / panel) 
 Physical buttons or switches Used to: trigger actions navigate menus send commands
