Time: 3:00 – 3:55 PM
Team Members: Nick Andrioff, Stefan Stropki, Noah Eckert
Objectives: Energy Optimization of the AEV. Continue to Adjust Arduino Code, TRR 3.
The team continued to adjust the code on the monorail track in order to meet the requirements for the mission. The tests were being performed on the upstairs track, meaning that the code that was being worked with was a second version of the original code. After the code ran consistently and successfully. the team worked to improve the efficiency and energy usage of the device. This was done by increasing the coasting of the vehicle and decreasing the power inputted for reversing (braking).
The team also completed TRR 3, which outlined the different objectives for the week and the responsibilities of each team member.
Tasks Completed: Upstairs Arduino Code, Energy Optimization Start, TRR 3.
