The purpose of this lab was for students to familiarize themselves with the Arduino programming interface. Our team was assigned to build an AEV according to the given example design located in the AEV Lab Manual and was given a task to familiarize with the use of Arduino controller. The AEVs are operated by an Arduino Nano micro-controller that contains two chips installed to power two respective motors. A crucial objective was to learn the Arduino language syntax in order to control the vehicle and complete the tasks given by the Mission Concept Review (MCR). This program was used to assign commands or codes into the Arduino located on the AEV. Some basic codes were used for this lab. The progress report of this lab can be found below:
