Comments on: Torque Vectoring – KIT Team Sharing Vehicle Controls Success Story https://blogs.mathworks.com/student-lounge/2017/11/22/torque-vectoring-ka-race-ing/?s_tid=feedtopost The student lounge blog focuses on student success stories. Winning student teams share their knowledge and the MathWorks student programs team shares best practices and workflows using MATLAB and Simulink.

I really enjoyed it. Best to you in the future. Having been part of different research teams, we needed to do similar projects where we used load cells and sensors on the braking systems and accelerator system on test vehicles. We even had to propose how to build a Dyno Tune for vehicles. Of course, this all comes at a big expense. Thankfully there are companies that donate these items to help out. Plus this particular company helped identify the ambient conditions (humidity, pressure, and temperature) of the medium surrounding the load cell that measures the torque. We used a TLL series load cell for our steering, braking and acceleration mechanisms to measure the force. Lots of fun on these types of projects and a lot of testing.

I am also designing a Traction control system (for my college’s FSAE team) but I have one query. You said that we can use Raspberry pi for this purpose But Raspberry pi does not have any analog input pin or a CAN port. We have to install a ADC or CAN port respectively for taking input. but as per the rule EV 2.3.9 :-
‘ The APPS signals must be sent directly to a controller using an analogue signal or via a digital data transmission bus such as CAN or FlexRay ‘
Don’t you think it will violate the rule?
i need help your suggestions will be helpful, it’s urgent for me and my team.

I have little experience compared to you but would say these makes sense. Only think I am not sure about are the wheel speed sensors. I would say that there are still some teams running inbound motors and for them it might be appropriate to use wheel speed sensors to get cleaner measurements of wheel speed.

Very informative and not going into too much deep. Quite nice overview and from my (little experience compared to you) its reasonable. Only I am not sure about the wheel speed sensors. There are still teams with inbound motors using shaft for torque transfer. I would say its appropriate for them to use wheel speed sensor for speed control purposes.
