Selecting Designs ByEvaluating Alternatives
• List design objectives (e.g lightweight .easy to fabricate, maneuverable)• Assign each objective a relative weight (importance), with the weights
summing to one if desired• For each alternative design, establish utility scores for each objective
– e.g. 0-10, with 0 for a useless solution and 10 for an excellent solution
• Calculate and compare the relative utility metric for each alternative by summing the product of each objective’s weight by the alternative’s utility score (inner product of the weight vector and the utility score vector).
• This should provide a utility metric for selecting the most promising (highest-scoring) design alternatives.

Design Considerations
– Dynamics– Layout, weight– Stability– Sensing and Control – Heat dissipation– Power
capacity/requirements/distribution– Thrust
generation(wheels/tracks/propellers/jets
– Drive mechanisms
– Suspension (pneumatic tires?)– Maneuverability/quickness/
response– Speed/drag– Blocking/Blocking, falling resistance– Flag handling – Vehicle form– Esthetics– Complexity/manufacturability– Ease of repair
