Individual Designs

Team B’s Design Process:

As the process to create the most efficient AEV design system our overall design has changed. To better fit user needs, such as cost, durability, weight, energy efficiency etc..

Features:

  • Battery Holder
  • Reflective Sensors
  • AEV Controller (ArduinoNano micro controller)
  • Propellers

Korey Wood’s Design:

Description: This design was inspired by the reference design and shares many of it’s attributes its differ from it in using the a different wheel holder and its placement on the AEV is centralized. This helps give the AEV more stability as it moves along the track.

Pros: Is more stable.

Cons:

Yonis Abdi’s Design:

Description: An AEV on a standard rectangular block with an L-shaped wheel holder and an arduino with the battery holder on the bottom and one motor and propeller.

Pros: has less weight, low energy consumption.

Cons: is less stable, more prone to accidents.

 

Brian Gainer’s Design:

Description: A standard AEV with trapezoid wings that are elevated.

Pros: more aerodynamic.

Cons: more parts required, small additional coast
