Real-Time "Frame Twist" Measurement Device
This student team will work to design, construct, and validate a measurement device capable of recording truck/trailer frame twist with a simple test install and integration with current CAN based DAQ system. The device the student team is working to create will be installable on trucks or trailers and will measure frame torsional deflection to within ±0.1deg at >50 Hz. The student team will work to provide digital data output via CAN messages that should include angular data and health status/confidence, as well as self diagnosis and calibration functions. The outcome this student team is working to accomplish is a device validated to meet the performance requirements.
