 We wanted to find a happy medium between

a stopping distance and a stopping time.

 Luckily, we figured out that even at a speed

• f 6 mph stopping in 250 mm, we were safe

from an acceleration perspective.

 According to the International Association of

Amusement Parks and Attractions, sneezing subjects the body to approx. 2.5g's, or 22.5 m/s^2, noticeably more than our top speed/shortest distance calculation.

 The spreadsheets on the following slides show

the stopping times that would be associated with speeds from 3-5mph at certain distances.

 These values do not account for user reaction

time as well as hardware reaction times. These times would have to be added to the values calculated.

• Human reaction time is approximately 250ms. However,

because of the nature of our user, our time will be larger than that.

• Hardware reaction time should be under 100ms, but this

is highly dependent on the hardware we end up choosing.

 There are two options for speed

control

• Our first option is potentiometers

leading to the motors

• Our second option is to set software

limits to govern speed.

A physics analysis was completed to evaluate the tipping force. We assumed that the force was impacting one corner at the top and the center of gravity was on the bottom in the middle of the stander. Stander Center Of Gravity Force

 Max Speed: 5 mph

𝑤𝑗 = 5𝑛𝑞ℎ 𝑤𝑔 = 0𝑛𝑞ℎ

 Stop in less than one second.  For this calculation, t=0.22

• This time corresponds to stopping in .25m at 5mph

𝑤𝑔 = 𝑤𝑗 + 𝑏 ∗ 𝑢 0 = 5 + .2 ∗ 𝑏 𝑏 = − 22.73𝑛𝑞ℎ 𝑡𝑓𝑑 = −10.16 𝑛 𝑡2

 Mass of Stander(Rabbit)=75kg  Mass of User=40kg  Total Mass=75+40=115kg

𝐺 = 𝑛𝑏 115 ∗ 10.16 = 1168.4𝑂 For the stander not to tip, the torque of the weight needs to be greater than or equal to the torque of the applied force.

 This tells us that in a realistic case, our stander

shouldn’t tip.
