Voltage Sensor • Specifications • 500Vdc rated • Digital/Analog output • Accuracy <= 1% • CYHVS500T Sensor • 500Vdc rated • 4V-5V analog output • Accuracy <= 1% • -10 C to +70 C • Cost ~ $80
Current Sensor • Specifications • 300 Amp rated • Digital/Analog output • Accuracy <= 2% • LEM HTR 300 Sensor • 300 Amp rated • 4V analog output • Accuracy <= 2% • -10 C to +70 C • Cost ~ $180
User Input • Required User inputs • Force APU on • Force APU off • Regen braking on/off • Reset Coulomb count • Specifications • Minimal distraction • Easy to reach • Quick to implement/build
Steering Wheel • On Steering Wheel • Pros: • Easy to reach • Won’t have to glance over • Cons: • Difficult to install
Ground • Ground Next to Driver • Pros: • Easy to place build • Can be easily moved • Cons: • Driver must look down
Podium • Podium Next to Driver • Pros: • Easy to reach • Adaptable • Cons: • More materials required
Seat • Side of Seat • Pros: • Buttons are easier to reach • Eyes can stay on road • Cons: • Unconventional setup mayconfuse people • Buttons not visible
Decision • Build ground setup first • Quick build time gives us more time for testing • Build Podium • The ground button setup can be placed directly on the podium without much extra work
