A.S.H.O.L.E.Autonomous System Housing of logistical environment By Team Delta Force (Team 4) Tim Brown Michael Tshudy Matt VanBuskirk Matt Straesser Geoff McCarthy
Mission Statement Problem Statement To detect obstacles 2 m wide and 1 m long Provide sufficient reaction time for driver Aid in maneuvering • In civil sector, automobile accidents are leading cause of death • (1-34 age) • Military sector, vehicles must be able to navigate in all weather, • blackout conditions • In both sectors, vehicles must travel in convoy fashion

How it works Uses 4 systems (GPS, Radar, IR cameras wireless communication) GPS to guide it Radar to detect oncoming traffic and buildings 2 IR Cameras to see far and near IR Near will detect obstacles and Far will detect people Wireless communication Computer Display for warnings
Features and benefits COST EFFECTIVE SOLUTION (only 84K) 20 m to 36 Km range with radar 5 m to 300 m range with IR cameras GPS guided system Improved software (better hole detection) Wireless communication incase one hits obstacle Computer display for warnings
Design Flaws Blind with in 5 m distance IR cameras can be blinded (by metal and IR light) Software isn’t perfect in detecting deformed holes Must have new power up procedure
Conclusion Solves problem: The benefits 1. Detects Obstacles 2. Detects oncoming traffic 3. Time delay brakes 4. Advises driver (via laptop) 5. Thus, takes stress off driver
