Strategy Planning

AUGUST

  • Strategy repository - Github action for testing
  • Update Jira board with incoming tickets
  • Update Confluence with data storage, strategy clients, overview of strategy repo
  • Establish style guide and onboarding guides
  • Finalize plans for strategy visualizations (and how they interact with other Midnight Sun systems)
  • Look for “missing feature” - any functionality that we want that hasn’t been added as a ticket; any models that we will need that haven’t been outlined or planned
  • Outline how our two efficiency profiles will exist within repo; switching between coils frequency
  • Strategy models on Raspberry Pi feasibility

SEPTEMBER

  • Welcome new team members! Onboarding
  • Update mobile app plans based on infotainment progress
  • Update visualization plans based on firmware progress (tentatively Dash)
  • Dynamics data smoothing complete
  • Update SOC models for missing features (eg. distance remaining, time remaining)
  • Determine how to analyze race loop decision
  • Determine how we want to consider weather (and consequently, how we want to test solar panels)

OCTOBER

  • Develop testing plan for our visualizations and mobile app
  • Research tire (Ecopia with Ologic) wear effect on rolling resistance and determine if negligible; how we want to test this conclusion
  • Establish what the testing plan for SOC/battery box model will look like

NOVEMBER

  • SOC/battery box should be complete; have model complete and ready for testing as well
  • Testing for battery box model
  • Complete refactoring of car optimization model (both coils)

DECEMBER

  • Establish April testing plan for rolling resistance, drag coefficient

2021+

  • Testing
  • Leftover tasks from Fall
  • More TBD
