Welcome
This is the Boeing Autonomous Driving Capstone project at Northern Arizona University.
Project Description
The goal of this project is to develop a control system to automate traditional vehicles. The system includes control over:
- Brakes
- Steering
- Throttle
Sponsors and Stakeholders
Sponsor: Boeing (Michael Vogelsang)
Technical Support: Conner N. and Donald G.
Importance
This project contributes to the future of transportation and advanced automation technology. The developed system is a stepping stone toward fully autonomous vehicle control in real-world applications.
Buggy Vehicle
The buggy used for this project serves as the test platform for implementing automated throttle, brake, and steering control.
