Proposal
Cedarville University’s Autonomous Golf Cart Senior Design Project’s mission is to provide engineering students with hands on experience with industry standard intelligent vehicle technologies, solve open-ended, multi-dimensional problems, and provide an autonomous transportation service to the greater campus community. Our autonomous technology will share the sidewalks; therefore, the public image of our autonomous routing service is critically linked with its technical performance. The autonomous golf cart has two major design areas: the cart’s hardware and its software. Within hardware, our team created functional braking and an H-Bridge for reversing. Within software, our team moved the codebase to a new software framework, implemented dynamic routing, and began obstacle avoidance using LiDAR.
