Project Title:
    Multi Port Fuel Injection Utilizing a Real Time Operating System

Abstract:
    As the automobile evolves, the control systems that are used to maintain and
    modify the current operating conditions have also evolved. Most vehicles in
    use today have upwards of 50 microprocessors controlling everything from
    cockpit cooling systems, to window controls. With over 50 microprocessors
    operating throughout a vehicle the electrical systems of a vehicle can become
    overly complicated. The objectives of this project are to approach the areas
    of vehicle management with respect to reducing the number of microprocessors
    required to operate a vehicle. To effectively approach this problem the team
    will look at one of the most intensive processes performed on a vehicle,
    Engine Control. It is intended that building a prototype fuel injection
    system with increased capabilities will best display the potential for
    reduction in the number of microprocessors throughout the vehicle.
