Abstract

This abstract presents the development of a low-cost vehicle motion module in the longitudinal direction using Arduino. The early prototype is designed to measure and analyse the motion of remote control cars in longitudinal direction with proper result. The system uses an Arduino microcontroller to gather data from a 3-Axis Gyro Accelerometer Sensor Module and Linear Magnetic Hall Sensor Module. These sensors provide information about the car's Vehicle Roll (deg/s), velocity (m/s), wheel speed (RPM) and acceleration (m/s2). This sensor data is then processed and analysed by the Arduino, the resulting data is sent to MATLAB Simulink to simulate acquire data of the vehicle in real-time and to develop data in a form electrical signal on a graph. There are 3 condition that has been set to test the functionality of DAQ Device such as Straight line (Flat Surface), Side slope (left side) and Climbing-up Hills (incline). The acquired data that are display on Straight Line (Flat Surface) test during acceleration give most satisfied result since it began to increase its acceleration with an Acceleration Peak of 4 m/s2 then purposely being decrease after 1 meter mark to see change in the graph resulting in Acceleration valley of 1 m/s2 during 1.8 second. This shows that the respond of sensor and receiving proper data in Real-time for the longitudinal direction of the Model Remote Control Car. On the other hand, the cost of developing this device is efficient by using Ardunio Uno and 2 sensor module that can be easily purchase online or any shop that sell this component with a total of RM91.40 compare to existing DAQ Device in the market that cost 200 USD for the lowest model such as DEWEsoft SIRIUS R1DB/R2DB.
