ChargeCarPrize Contest Launched!
Posted on July 14, 2010
ChargeCar Team
The ChargeCarPrize programming contest (beta phase) has launched! The software & data are available to download, and the leaderboard is live for submissions. We have real-world data collected by our secret set of drivers available for training and testing your algorithms.
For those who haven’t heard already, the ChargeCarPrize programming contest is a collaborative competition to design the best way to use the compound energy storage system of ChargeCar. Given GPS coordinates, previous drives, speed, acceleration, and other characteristics, contestants must develop an efficient strategy for using the supercapacitor. Should regenerative breaking go into the cap or battery? Should I trickle-charge the cap from the battery at red lights to handle the acceleration afterwards? Should I do full route-prediction to determine the future power demands of the vehicle? Let’s find out!
The contest will award its first monthly prize to the leading submission, a $100 gift certificate to Amazon.com, on September 1st, 2010. Prizes will continue monthly for the duration of the contest, when a yet-unannounced Grand Prize will be awarded to the best overall submission! Check out chargecar.org/invent and get started today!

sheep skin. cheap ugg boots either made from faux fur or
fake fur, and calling them ugg boots is misleading. Some manufacturers use pig-skin in order to cut
their production cost. This kind of product is indeed cheap, but the quality is incomparable to authentic UGG?, although they are sometimes sold under their name.
