One of the most important assets for a military unit is reliable communications. That’s why the sponsor of my Capstone Design project builds military-grade communications equipment and why they tasked my team with building a tool to showcase their products. Our project was to design and build the Personal Assist Cargo Relay (PACR), an autonomous equipment carrier for use on mountain terrain. My primary responsibilities were sensor selection and software development. Despite limited funding and technical expertise, we finished a working prototype of the PACR on time.
