Summary: | The World Solar Challenge is a bi-annual competition that allows universities from
around the world to design and build a fully solar-powered vehicle that can travel
3000km across Australia at an average speed of over 60 km/h. In order to monitor the
solar car remotely, a data acquisition system with wireless transmission capabilities has
to be developed. Various types of sensors are chosen to monitor information such as
voltages, currents, temperatures and vehicle speed. All these data will be transferred
wirelessly through a radio modem and displayed on a laptop in an escort vehicle
following the Solar Car. |
