By Jay Fetter

Abstract:
The goal of this project is to provide an active suspension system for a Baja
car and prove its feasibility for the Baja SAE competition. The system devel-
oped during this project will be strictly a prototype and will ignore concerns
such as weight and serve as a proof of concept that a Baja SAE car can run
active suspension within the competition rules. This system will use a sensor
suite on the car to provide automatic damping adjustment of the shocks. As
part of the project, this system will be integrated into an older competition
Cornell Baja car, designated OD10.
