Powerwheels racing team

SRB 2022-2023

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: BAJA Spartan Racing

Home: California, United States

All BAJA teams are required to build their vehicles around a Kohler CH440 internal combustion engine (ICE). This forces teams to prioritize powertrain optimization, reduced weight, and performance. Students must utilize their knowledge of materials, design principles, dynamics, thermodynamics, and data analysis to design the vehicle. Student teams then attend a competition. Vehicles participate in static and dynamic events. Static events include a cost event, business presentation, and design presentation. The dynamic events are acceleration, sled pull/hill climb, maneuverability, suspension/traction, and endurance. The highlight of our vehicle focuses around a mountain bike suspension system to give our vehicle a smoother travel experience over rough terrain.

Biosphere Solar

Faire: Delft

Maker: Biosphere Solar

Home: Zuid Holland, Nederland

Zonnepanelen zijn voor een duurzame toekomst een van de belangrijkste technologieën. Echter is de manier waarop zonnepanelen vandaag de dag geproduceerd en gebruikt worden verre van duurzaam. Ook staat het ontwerp van het paneel het niet toe om de componenten weer uit elkaar te halen, waardoor zelfs bij recycling vele kritieke materialen verloren gaan. Om perspectief te bieden voor een betere toekomst is er dus drastisch een nieuw ontwerp van zonnepanelen nodig. Hieraan werkt de Delftse start-up Biosphere Solar!
