Demonstrated Features
Our final design will display measurements as follows in real time on a touch screen display in the baja car:
-
Miles per hour
-
Revolutions per second
-
Lap time
-
GPS location
-
Engine temperature
In addition, this design will allow the recorded measurements to be exported to a USB storage device.
