The Mechanical Division works with the modelling and manufacturing of various mechanical components required for the car . The division is also responsible for the maintenance and safety of the car .
DESIGN
The Design Subdivision is responsible for engineering various mounts for the sensors which are required to automate the car . 3D models of the component and the mount are created using CAD softwares and simulated on analytic softwares . The Subdivision is also responsible for proper placement of the sensors in order to get a 360 degree field of view for the car with no or minimal blind spots .
MECHANICS
Mechanics Subdivision ventures into the mathematical , kinematic and dynamic modelling of various robots . These are essential for the development of an effective control system for a robot . The Subdivision also provides the necessary equations and models required for simulations done by the Artificial Intelligence Division .
