About this project
This is the space for Midnight Sun's electrical team. Here, you'll find documentation on our cars' electrical systems and ongoing projects. This space also contains helpful information and design guidelines. Most team members specialize in either hardware or software, but all are welcome to learn both.
Our goal is develop an electrical system that is easy to debug and resilient in both hardware and software. It also needs to be easy to maintain, simple to assemble, and cost-effective. We need to consider vibration, temperature fluctuations, noise, and weather.
