Summary:

A vehicle-level data acquisition (DAQ) system was developed and implemented on the Lawrence Technological University (LTU) Baja SAE vehicle. This low-cost Arduino-based DAQ system is capable of accurately and repeatedly measuring Baja SAE specific vehicle parameters and storing them for offline analysis. While expandable for the needs of future teams, the developed DAQ system includes measurement of vehicle wheel speed, CVT pulley speeds, suspension position, CVT belt temperature, steering load, and steering angle.The development of the DAQ system architecture and the development of the angular speed and suspension position measurement subsystems are the focus of this work. The processes followed and lessons learned can be used by other Baja SAE and SAE Collegiate Design Series. Each measurement subsystem was designed, fabricated, integrated, and validated on the bench and in-vehicle. Data acquisition software was developed for the DAQ, and offline data processing software was implemented in MATLAB. Finally, the complete system was tested using a combination of industry standard and Baja SAE specific vehicle tests
