Hello everybody, i'm french, new to this forum and to Arduino
Sorry for my english, I'll try to make it understandable as possible
So, We got a project with friends for our shool class : we have an electric car (scale model), and our project is to create a kind of ABS-ESP (Anti-lock braking system + Electronic stability control)
Concretely, for a prototype, when the rear wheels are faster than the front wheels, we have to slow down the motor (the car is a propulsion)
We got :
1 Arduino Uno
1 electric engine with a continuously variable transmission (CVT)
many basics components (leds, (bipolar) transistors,....)
We will buy some sensors later (Hall effect sensor, to detect the wheels's speed)
We think that we have to use a Bipolar Transistor to change the engine's power with the CVT
So : Sensors -> Arduino -> B Transistor -> CVT -> engine
If the sensors detect that the Speed of RearWheels > FrontWheels ; the arduino sent the order to slow down the engine
But we dont know how to do that
This is a project which make 1/4 of our academic qualification (Baccalauréat)
Thanks in advance
