Introduction

The purpose of this project is to produce the practical component of a new engineering course. It will involve students individually designing, building and testing their own autonomous vehicle (AV). This practical will give students the opportunity to develop highly useful and sought 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

First to prove that this practical is feasible. By providing examples of what we expect future students to achieve.This required us to design and develop our own individual AVs as proof of concept.

Second we produced resources and guides for future students. This is in the form of: documentation, gathering resources, taking notes of our experiences and developing design guidelines and procedures.
