Proposed Design


During the design process, several assumptions were made.  The device is intended for any horizontal revolving carnival rides that follows a hypocycloid pattern.  As an example, we use the Wisdom Sizzler at Canadian National Exhibition (CNE), to demonstrate our concept.  The specification of this ride can be found in the appendix.

A measurement unit will be placed and hidden within the passenger seating compartment, where it will gather ride measurement data.  The measurement unit should also be responsible for executing any necessary calculations prior to data transfer.  A wireless communication device will be used to bridge the connection between the measurement unit and the data collection unit.  The data collection unit will store the received information and execute any post processing necessary.
