golf cart

Robotics & Engineering - Week of 10/26/26

This week was almost entirely golf cart. I started out by installing the Python SDK for the Ouster LiDARs, and once I got all the libraries compiled, visualizing the sensor data was actually pretty easy. From there I moved on to the much bigger task: processing the 40 GB .pcap file that Jonas and I recorded with Ouster Studio the week before while driving around campus for about 30 minutes.

This week, I spent most of shop time working with the golf cart. The new battery arrived so we put it in place, and we gave it a quick test-drive even though not all batteries were balanced yet. We finally charged all batteries and got them to each be within 0.2 volts of each other which will allow us to connect the equalizer modules. Hopefully this will prevent us from ruining another 300 dollar lead acid battery!
