Welcome to the Driver Controls Subsystem! We are so glad to have you and are excited that you're interested in learning about the coolest subsystem on GTMS. Driver Controls is responsible for connecting the driver to the car, allowing them to stop, steer, and accelerate reliably and safety while minimizing fatigue and pain.
We design, analyze, machine, and assemble over 40 custom components to complete this subsystem. Driver controls is a good place to learn basic and advanced mechanical engineering skills. Below you will find the DC handbooks (with educational PPTs and information about each component), Ergonomic Analysis Page (with detailed ergonomic information), and pages with more detailed descriptions of the design process for individual parts
