Previous Design History• Culture Shock I 2009• Culture Shock II 2010• Vulture I 2011
Previous Design History• Performance– Low center of gravity– High Power 24V motors– Low moment of inertia– High-performance computer systems– Cambered wheel design– Dual Chain tensioners
• Safety• Gel Batteries• Reliable E-stop• Audible & Visible alerts• Speed-limiting via Motor Controller
Previous Design History• Reliability & Maintainability– Durable materials– Modular construction– Passive sensors
• Small footprint– Increased maneuverability– Ease of testing
New PlatformDesign Process
•Reduced Camber angle to 7⁰•Revised Suspension for more durability•Built Sensor Test Cart for sensor development•12VDC Monitor eliminates inverter•Continuous design improvement
New PlatformDesign Process
•Built Sensor Test Cart for sensor development
Stereo Vision System
• Low cost web cameras.• Open source stereo
vision software (Emgu, C# wrapper for OpenCV)
