The purpose of this lab was to gain an understanding of the software that would be used in designing the AEV. The controller that will be used in this project is an Arduino Nano microcontroller. The programming syntax used to program the microcontroller is very similar to MatLab, or C++. During the lab procedure, the Arduino was connected to two motors, which each drove a propellor. Then, the team had to write a code to model a sample scenario provided by the instructional staff. Learning how to write code was very helpful in upcoming labs.
