Re: paper: Cyber Blue Drive System Test Report

To determine top speed, we used the data for the 40 - 50 foot segment of the test. The robot was at top speed by then in all cases.

So, we took the time required to travel that 10 feet (in seconds) and converted that to feet per second to determine "top speed". For the report, we called that 40 - 50 foot segment the "block" time.

In reality, it is the average speed for that final segment of the test run.
