Toyota Racing Development (TRD) Senior Software Engineer and MTSU alumni, T Michael Smith spoke at the MTSU ACM chapter meeting about several apps his team works on to improve vehicle performance. One app mentioned adjusts the chassis height while the vehicle is in operation, similar to our solar boat’s addressable hardware which is continually dialed in with the boat out on the water to optimize vehicle performance.
