| Project name | Streetch |
|---|---|
| Short Project Description | The Design Challenge, organised by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, an annual engineering competition. The challenge is to design, build and test a device to simulate an autonomous vehicle, such as a driverless truck used in confined areas like docks, ports or mines, automated trolleys for warehouses or any other similar device. |
| Advanced Challenge: Device with programmable element(s); competition with multiple targets / complex mission. Category open to any team. |
Streetch is a motor-assisted and autonomous Stretcher designed to assist Paramedics in Emergency Situations. Our IMECHE Vehicle is a medium fidelity prototype of this long term vision, being able to detect obstacles and coloured targets. | | Time Length and Team | Created for the Institute of Mechanical Engineering Advanced Design Challenge - Team of 2 (Extra Curricular) | | Awards | Second Place Overall in the Regional Finals - Advanced Challenge | | Video Presentation | https://www.loom.com/share/0988add4118c49d093607d962c4f4fe8?sid=1278e82d-0193-49b0-876c-cf6dad127944 | | Poster | https://www.canva.com/design/DAGCftDCVQQ/hcSXp3mZOZXagdH0uZIf2g/view?utm_content=DAGCftDCVQQ&utm_campaign=designshare&utm_medium=link&utm_source=editor | | Website | Streetch - Homepage | | Bill of Materials | ‣ | | Official Event Link | IMechE Design Challenge |
