- Weight
Key Areas Support:
Each team member came up with an individual draft of AEV and shared ideas with each other. We identified four key areas during the team meeting, which are the ability of AEV to keep balance, the security of AEV during the runtime, and consuming the minimum weight and energy lost.
After the motor configuration lab, we decided to change our design of AEV. We determined to put the motors below the base. Due to the test data, AEV moved greater distance with lower motors compared to the previous design.
After the battery testing lab, we decided to charge the battery to 8.4 volts. Due to the test data, the drop in battery voltage after test run was minimized when the battery was charged to 8.4 volts.
