> [!IMPORTANT] > **Work in Progress** — Development ongoing as of **18.01.2026** > This repository is part of my **Engineering Thesis Project** for the completion of my undergraduate studies. > 🎥 *We are also starting a YouTube channel documenting the Go-Kart assembly!* ## Overview This project constitutes the practical component of my **engineering thesis**, focusing on the design and implementation of a **real-time dashboard system** for an electric go-kart. The system is developed on the **STM32F746G-DISCO microcontroller** with a touchscreen display using **TouchGFX**, and is intended to collect, process, and visualize telemetry data from multiple hardware sensors. The dashboard serves as a **human–machine interface (HMI)**, enabling the driver to monitor essential parameters of the vehicle in real time. These include, but are not limited to: ## Preview | Main Screen | Error Table | |------------|-------------| | | | | Temperature Table | Battery Table | |-----------------|----------------| | | | ## Monitored Metrics | ***Metric*** | ***Description*** | |------------------------|--------------------------------------------| | **Vehicle Speed** | Real-time speed display. | | **Throttle / Brake** | Input level visualization. | | **Battery** | Voltage and temperature monitoring. | | **Motor Temperature** | Prevents overheating and ensures reliability. | | **G-Forces** | Lateral and vertical forces in real time. | | **BMS Data (External)** | Additional telemetry provided by an external Battery Management System (BMS), developed as a separate thesis project. This work only focuses on visualization of the received data. | | **HOTLAP Button** | Initiates a lap timer (stopwatch) in the dashboard, showing minutes, seconds, and centiseconds. Useful for tracking lap times during testing or racing sessions. | | **Future Extensions** | Additional sensor integrations planned. | The objective of this work is to provide a **robust, responsive, and intuitive interface** that supports safe and efficient operation of the electric go-kart. ## Hardware As part of the project, a custom **Arduino Shield** is being developed to handle all sensor inputs, signal routing, and electrical interfacing between the go-kart hardware and the STM32 dashboard. ### KiCad Schematic Preview ### KiCad 3D Model Preview ### IRL pictures | STM32 - dashboard | Shield | |------------|-------------|
