They battled through injuries all year and never stopped fighting. Rich Wallace and this staff have UCF baseball pointed in the right direction β the foundation is real.
Now's the time to back them: buy tickets, donate, show up. Proud of these guys. Charge On βοΈ
What a ride, Knights. π€π
Season ends in the Auburn Regional, one win short of a regional final β but don't let the last out define this team. Third in the Big 12. 19 conference wins. Second NCAA Tournament in three years.
Down but not done. π€π Last night stung, but this team doesn't fold. Win or go home today vs Auburn β leave it all on the field, Knights. Charge On. βοΈ #ChargeOn#OmahaBound
Andrew Williamson went off β THREE home runs (2-run, 3-run, solo) β and the Knights stormed back from 3-0 down to lead NC State 9-3 before lightning suspended Game 2 in the 8th. Three outs to close it out this morning. Resumes 12:02. Finish the job. Charge On βοΈβΎοΈ
Wheels up βοΈ Auburn-bound to watch my Knights chase a Super Regional. #2 UCF vs NC State Friday at Plainsman Park. Road regional doesn't scare us β we travel well and we play to win. ChargeOn π€π @UCF_Baseball#UCFBaseball
Three more years of Johnny Dawkins is a win for UCF β on the court and off it. A coach who develops players into better men first, ballers second. The program's in good hands. ChargeOn π€π @Coach_Dawkins
From 9-21 in the Big 12 last year to 19-11 and the No. 4 seed β with multiple arms lost to season-ending injuries.
UCF walks off K-State 6-5 to clinch the series and a double-bye in Phoenix.
Next: Oklahoma State, Thursday noon on ESPNU. Go Knights. βοΈ
Every one of these dots is an actual crash from the fleet. Real world speeds, collisions, and people. Not just the regulatory test cases.
The richness of this data is what enabled the result. With simulation we can replay the crashes and measure the forces on the human body model.
Then sweep through restraint deployment times to find that deploying earlier gives the time for the bag to be inflated optimally and seat belt pretension before the occupant has moved out of position.
But it takes time for crash accelerometers to be certain. Lowering that time threshold risks unwanted deployments.
Using vision gives the vehicle confidence to reduce that timing. The camera sees the impending impact and together with the sensors tell the restraint controller to reduce the filter and act sooner.
The Y Axis shift in Predicted Injury Severity is based on sensors in the human body models from rerunning the crash simulations with the faster detection threshold.
Such a reduction in injury severity across the spectrum is unheard of, let alone doing this via an update over the air.
I'm extremely proud of the analysis team's work and dedication. Going above and beyond to ask "we have the safest car on the road but can we make it even safer?" And then working with the vision team to build the predictions needed to make it happen. Rigorously tested in simulation and then in physical crash testing. Now deployed and improving lives.
I watch the video on loop and just imagine each dot, a person.
Knights silence Baylor 8-0 in Waco. Three-run shot in the 2nd, four-run 4th, lights out from there. UCF to 28-17 (16-9 Big 12). We'll be at the game Sunday. βοΈ #ChargeOn
