Job description
1st part
MoD want to increase the availability and reliability on the Jackel 3 so it is more efficient and sustainable during active use.
How?
My client are putting sensors on to the vehicle to measure data and predict when specific components are likely to go wrong and change it. (For example, the suspension. They measure the suspension and change it before it wears down and breaks). This will help increase reliability by understanding when components are likely to wear down.
Supacat need someone who can support in designing that sensor suite to put onto the platform and measure all of these parameters. The sensors need to interconnect with themselves through a data recording system.
Aim of the sensor suite is to improve reliability and availability of the Jackel 3 vehicle.
Example sensors:
- Suspension: what are the limits of bounce and movement.
- Humidity: putting humidity sensors in places there shouldn't be any water.
- Oil: temperature
- Lights: are they too low or not working.
- Tire pressure.
These are basic examples, but Supacat sensor suite will be much more high tech.
