Green Traffic Tool Innovation – Design and Implementation of a Solar Car Prototype

Abstract:

Abstract: Solar car, a combination of a great number of relevant techniques with new energy sources, materials and structure, is both eco-friendly and energy-saving. Our research, whose chief goal is to bring solar cars into our daily life by the device of a prototype, will be concentrated on body structure, steering system and energy flows. A conclusion has been made that the solar car is very potential to be used as the sightseeing car and some optimizations have also been achieved.
