Projects

Software

Software Track Detection

Members on the software team work together to code the Autonomous Software Stack for the go-kart. The vehicle utilizes the NVIDIA Jetson as the primary compute unit. In past semesters, students optimized raceline which was the optimal path around the race track.

Current projects include improving the Autonomous Navigation Stack and continuing to work on serial communication. Software meets Saturdays at 11 AM in the Bechtel Innovation and Design Center.

Electrical

In the electrical subteam, students develop and test PCB's, wire go-kart components, and code firmware. Some of our past projects include kart PCB design, lithium battery assembly, and ethernet communication.

Our PCB's are STM32 based and designed using KiCAD. Electrical meets Sundays at 2 PM in the Bechtel Innovation and Design Center.

Mechanical

Go kart top view

Members design, test, and manufacture countless parts for the go-kart. In the past couple of years, some of our projects include spoiler design, electrical enclosures, structural mounts, and rebuilding the kart from the ground up.

We primarily use SolidWorks to design and test our parts. Anyone is welcome to join, and no experience is necessary. Mechanical meets Sundays at 2 PM in the Bechtel Innovation and Design Center.

Business

Students of the business subteam have a variety of projects to choose from. Past projects include networking with sponsors, tracking budgets, and analyzing organization finances.
