Personal Write Up The whole point of this project was to build something that the class could apply their knowledge on the things Mr.Kunz has taught us these past couple units. Along with being able to apply their knowledge, teams had to be able to build a decent mousetrap car to get the best grade possible. In order to get a car to go the maximum distance Taylor and Daniel came up with three different main variables: lever arm length; to see how much leverage gets the car the farthest, car…

Imagine yourself stranded on a by-way in a remote part of the country without any idea why and how your car just suddenly stopped. You probably would be panicking a little especially if it's already eleven in the evening and the only things you see around you are trees and endless patches of land. The second and more practical thing you might think of is getting a tow truck to help you get your car to the nearest garage or gasoline station and probably get yourself a lift home too. Tow trucks…

In the case of the parking sports are underpriced, the accessible spaces are constantly filled and drivers must go around the parking lot for long time looking for a parking spot, moreover there is probably traffic problems.

exploration vehicles needs to be at least partly autonomous because of the distance that separates it from the nearest space station. Far distances mean that communication with the vehicle will always be delayed, therefore the vehicle won’t be able to react to sudden changes. For example, it takes 14 minutes for a signal from Mars to reach Earth. In some cases no communication at all is possible, for instance, if something is blocking the signal. And when it happens, it is important that a…

Man is always seeking more power. For over 100 years, the speed and performance of the automobile has drastically improved, but at a high price. Only 45 years ago, high-end cars could barely reach 200 horsepower. Today there are cars with 1000 horsepower, but they come with a one million dollar price tag. Car companies try frantically to make a balance between power and cost. In the persuasive article “Meet the Dodge (rumble, rumble) Hellcat!”, Silvio Calabi appeals to boys of all ages with his…

Tesla’s new driver less cars are an innovation and could be great as it could improve commutes as well as allow the individuals to become more productive. However, I believe that Tesla’s new autopilot system could potentially be dangerous as they would have programmed route data and could ignore traffic lights which could cause more traffic accidents and whole system of sensors, etc. could malfunction. In the article by NewsELA titled PRO/CON: Are self-driving cars the future of transportation?…

Imagine a world where no one knows how to drive. Where the highway is filled with driverless cars. Imagine how many parents would forbid their children from even crossing a crosswalk in fear that a driverless car won’t be able to stop or swerve out of the way if their child doesn’t make it across in time. The technology we advanced to as humans may seem amazing; however, this technology is not trustworthy. These cars could be on the road in a few years due to advancements. Many articles have…

with disruption of automated vehicles, change is necessary. Technological enhancements are inevitable and humans will continue to…
