ABOUT US
The Embry-Riddle EcoEagles team is composed of unique team members with extremely diverse backgrounds. We have competed in the EcoCAR challenge since 2008. Our mission at ERAU EcoCAR is “Design. Build. Break. Refine. Win.” With this mission we believe it will carry us in our goals to develop the best engineers and vehicle possible to win the EcoCAR Mobility Challenge. Our team members are earning degrees in a range of topics such as mechanical engineering, business, homeland security, human factors, aeronautical science, and spaceflight operations. Being a university centered around aerospace gives our team a unique perspective on the project that cannot be matched by any other university participating in the competition.
Year 4 Goals:
- We wish to make the vehicles adaptive cruise control reliable and effective.
- The vehicle can communicate with a smart infrastructure and act accurately.
- Ensure the team members are having opportunities to be exposed to leadership.
- Ensure the team members are learning valuable lessons and prepare them for turnover.
