Advanced motion control and GPS guide car steering robot
Article Abstract:
A steering robot system that uses advanced motion control, integrated with a GPS positional system, is developed to guide vehicles during testing. The GPS system controls an electric motor that is used to actuate pre-defined patterns in the vehicle's steering system and the robot is used for J-tests, constant radius tests and handling tests on twisty roads.

Fast, lean, flexible development
Article Abstract:
The principles of lean product development (LPD) are not about how efficient the design office equipment is, but is about reducing wasting times in the process. The projects can be completed on time or earlier than expected by applying LPD and cutting queues in product development projects.
