Electric GoKart


So this was a very educational project I undertook, starting as a freshman. It was an advising seminar here at MIT. Prof Leeb is crazy and a a great teacher. I learned how to weld, and machine stuff. It was great.

Later, I designed drive electronics for a set of classroom quality carts. Not as exciting as the first stint, but still interesting.

Freshman Go-Kart Page A page describing the project and lots of pictures.
My AUP My AUP paper. Has schematics of the drive electronics for a gokart. Also data collected from the carts, and physical constants determined from it. Lots of matlab scripts to tell you stuff automatically.
