The rise of modern society has seen a growth in autonomous vehicle technology. As an answer to harsh weather issues that hinder most driver-less vehicles, Sensible 4 creates autonomous solutions for all weather conditions. A Sensible 4 project concerning retrofitting an electric vehicle is the main topic of this paper with a focus towards further drive-by-wire development. The main goal of this project is to establish a foundation for the manufacturing of the mentioned electric vehicle.
Signals essential for autonomous control were measured using an oscilloscope and analyzed for vehicle integration. Additionally, tests and comparisons between two Controlled Area Network (CAN) gateway devices were made for optimum monitoring, cable sizing was calculated utilizing conductor properties, protective devices were selected considering cable choices, and a system schematic diagram was created using computer-aided design software.
The result of the project is a stable foundation for the production of a driver-less electric vehicle which is retrofitted by Sensible 4. All features discussed in this paper will be utilized in the vehicle during its operation.
After retrofitting is concluded, the vehicle will be used in a fleet operation to provide driver-less and shared mobility in all weather conditions to busy urban areas.
