PULSE running in the 2013
Emerald Coast Electrathon
Teardrop Shape: PULSE was
orignially planned to be in the shape of a teardrop.
This shape was chosen because of its ability to be very
aerodynamic. Time ran short though and the body was
never finished.
Telemetry: The vehicle is planned to have
telemetry so that information can be transmitted between
the driver and the people in the dugout without having
to divert the driver's attention away from her own
safety.
36 Volt System: The students wanted
to be able to get the maximum amount of volts out of
their batteries while staying under the maximum weight
limit for the batteries.
PULSE has since been retired
due to the multiple flaws it had.
