Abstract
In this project, I utilized a coding software and computer-aided design to create a lighting system for the engineering department electric vehicle. For instance, I design a cone shaped compartment for the front and rear lights of the vehicle. I coded two LEDs for the back of the vehicle so that when it is put in reverse, the LEDs blink. The LEDs in the front are wired to turn on when the vehicle turns. I attached an LED strip inside the seating compartment. As the driver presses on the throttle the LEDs will turn on based on the different voltage caused by the pressure on the throttle when powered. The harder the throttle is pushed; the more LEDs turn on.
