Electrical Engineering
CurrentI was given the task of supporting the electronics team in the RMIT Formula E Club. Actuators and motor drives are used to transform electric signals into actions, like turning on the throttle or starting a mechanical motion, and this signals the car to use the appropriate amount of electrical power. Additionally, power steering made use of mechatronic devices that my colleagues and I designed. This is especially crucial as, in high-speed situations like these, the steering wheel's sensitivity must be adjusted to the driver's preferred driving style. We're working on steer-by-wire applications for our Formula E vehicle.
