Software Engineering Academic SunSwift 2020-2023
Sunswift Racing is a student led team of innovators working to redefine the future of sustainable transport through the research and development of solar electric vehicle technologies.
In December 2022, the students took their SunSwift 7 car to the Adelaide 500 to demonstrate their solar car and their remote driving technology on the race track.
Along with meeting the public we were able to join one of the racing teams as they competed, and placed first and second. The entire experience was an excellent learning opportunity for the students. With an overall team lead, each department e.g. Software Engineering, has a group of students, an academic liaison and an academic lead to help guide the students.
However, all the decisions on design, development, production, programming and driving are made by the students!
