Updated on 21/10/24  We are researching on h • Explored KERS Benefits and Challenges: • Listed the positive and negative aspects of using KERS in vehicles. • Investigated how KERS systems could potentially be adapted for use in aircraft. • Generated Integration Ideas • Brainstormed potential methods to integrate KERS into the Ampaire EEL’s systems. • Evaluated how KERS could address concerns like fuel efficiency, weight, and performance. Using Google Search Engine • Gathered Technical Details regarding the build and body of the aircraft • Researched articles on the design and layout of the Ampaire EEL aircraft. • Studied the various compartments and components of the aircraft to identify feasible installation points for KERS. • Evaluated the practicality of installing the system into an aircraft system. • Looked into potential limitations of integrating KERS into aircraft systems. • Identified industry-specific challenges such as weight r...

    The Tesla autopilot system, also known as Full Self Driving (FSD) is a revolutionary autopilot system designed to become fully autonomous soon ( Tesla Autopilot: What is it and how does it work?, 2023). Our research focuses primarily on the safety features of the system, the autopilot software, and how they work in conjunction with the Graphical User Interface (GUI). There are three levels of the autopilot system which vary based on their pricing. It starts with the basic autopiloting system, followed by the enhanced autopiloting system, and the full self-driving capability system, which costs more than the base features of the autopilot system (Ahsan, 2023). Tesla Vision, which consists of eight externally installed cameras around the vehicle provides a 360-degree view of its surroundings, to identify obstacles one might encounter on the road (Dnistran, 2023). Tesla has also removed the traditional buttons and controls on the dashboard and replaced them with a big touchs...

  The Tesla autopilot system, also known as the Full Self Driving (FSD) is a revolutionary autopilot system designed to become fully autonomous in the near future. (The Economic Times, 2023) Our research is focused primarily on the safety features of the system, the autopilot software and how they work in conjunction with the Graphical User Interface (GUI). There are three levels to the autopilot system which vary based on how much you pay for the vehicle. It starts off with the basic autopiloting system, the enhanced autopiloting system and lastly the full self-driving capability system, which unfortunately costs way more than the base features of the autopilot system. (Ahsan, 2023) Tesla Vision, which are eight externally installed cameras around the vehicle provide a 360-degree view of its surroundings, so as to identify whatever obstacles you might encounter on the road. Tesla recently made the switch from radar to cameras as they believe that the cameras will be able to view i...
