- Car update
Yesterday we installed and verified that our current / voltage sensor works. The sensor was bought from Spark fun electronics http://www.sparkfun.com/ . Next time we work on the car we will be installing our hall effect sensor which senses tire revolutions which will help us compute MPH and a Arduino uno microcontoller http://www.arduino.cc/. The Arduino will read our analog inputs from our sensors and output data to a 4 line lcd display that will display voltage , current and mph. With this data we can play with gearing and use our batteries more efficiently.
Stay tuned for Arduino fun!
