This was a team design project with application of theoretical principles in EE/CS to mechatronic systems with sensors, actuators and intelligence. We built a competitive vehicle to autonomously follow an unknown racecourse using power electronics, filtering/signal processing, control theory, electromechanics, microcontrollers, and real-time embedded software. Our vehicle won 1st place at the intercollegiate 2006 NATCAR competition, setting the all-time average speed record.
