Data Analysis Tool

Performance_Analysis_1-1x0is7i

The included file shows the excel file containing the data collected from the Data Analysis Tool, along with graphs displaying Power vs. Time and Power vs. Distance.

The code used to collect the data is displayed below

 

reverse(4);
celerate(4,0,25,3);

motorSpeed(4,25);
goFor(1);

motorSpeed(4,20);
goFor(2);

reverse(4);

motorSpeed(4,25);
goFor(2);

brake(4);

 

Due to the updated version of the Data Analysis Tool, the data collected from the Arduino is converted into more manageable values.

The Power over Time graph appears to be accurate going off of the code provided, with power steadily increasing, then lowering power to run the motors at 25 power. Power drops again to run the motors at 20 power, then spikes when the motors reverse. Power returns to about where it was at the 3-4 second mark, then power drops to zero when the motors break.

The Power over Distance graph appears to be displaying the same data.
