Introduction
The purpose of this project is to produce the practical component of a new engineering course. It will involve students individually designing and building and testing their own autonomous vehicle (AV). This practical will give students the opportunity to develop highly useful and sort after skills, such as CAD design, 3D Printing, Altium designer, PCB prototyping and microprocessor coding. Developing these skills through practice rather then theory will set future students in good stead for their future career.
Objectives
Firstly to show that this practical is feasible we need to provide examples of what the final outcomes could be for the practical. This means that we will need to design and develop three separate and different AVs and demonstrate them.
Secondly we need to provide the relevant resources and guides for future students. This will be done in the form of: documentation, gathering resources, taking notes of our experiences and developing design guidelines and procedures.
