Overview • Refresher • Accomplishments • Plans • Issues • Conclusion University of Portland School of Engineering
Refresher • Swift Fox is a data acquisition and monitoring system for a vehicle. • Swift Fox is designed to measure, display, and record transducer signals. • The required transducers measure lateral acceleration and engine rpm. • There are three spare inputs for expansion. • Swift fox is controlled by a calculator keyboard and an interactive plasma display. • The results of a recorded session may be uploaded to an external PC for use in a spreadsheet.
