MSD I

DDR Minutes

Mechanical Portion

• Machining of Car Rims, possible knurling for traction
• Shaft and bearing block alignment
• High center of gravity

Actions Required

• Add Buttress Support

Electrical Portion

• Secondary system for logging data. Memory on microcontroller not good enough.
• Determine if there are any inputs from Labview that could be useful to the project.
• Important frequencies need to be determined, such as frequency of PWM output modulation, frequency of sampling the analog inputs, and frequency of grabbing the logging data.
• Some simulation tests need to be run on hardware. Monitoring the throttle input to the motor controller, and then the output from the motor controller.

Actions Required

• Determine a set-up for collecting the data that the microcontroller is monitoring. Either a S/D card connector or just sending it directly to the host computer.
• Build some code on the microcontroller and begin some hardware tests to determine which frequency values are best for the frequencies mentioned above.
