I work on electrical design and debugging for BYU’s Formula SAE electric racecar, including the RML, precharge, and high-voltage sensing.

Debugging an undocumented board.

I inherited an existing Ready to Move Light board, worked out how it functioned, debugged it, and developed a new iteration. The racecar is a team achievement; the redesign is one part of my contribution.

The inherited board

I inherited an existing Ready to Move Light board without documentation. My starting point was understanding someone else’s design and debugging its behavior.

Embedded systems.

Two class projects programmed for physical hardware: an FPGA calculator and a Y-board minigame.

Carson’s car covered in Christmas lights at night

Christmas-light car

I taped each light onto the car, then designed and 3D-printed storage spools in SolidWorks.
