5. Position encoders (10 pts) The Nukbot's design includes a position encoder subsystem comprised of six position encoders. The control system requires at least four of the six position encoders to be functional in order for the Nukbot to be operational (thus, the system remains operational with up to 2 failures). In preparation for manufacturing the Nukbot, a few weeks ago one of the production engineers withdrew six position encoders from a fixed inventory of the 120 encoders in stock in the Logistics and Maintenance department. Due to supply chain issues, no additional position encoders are expected to be received in the next six months. Last week an alert was received that stated one of the suppliers of position encoders, Bevo Encoders, was accused of fraud and did not perform the required testing and verification of the encoders. Thus, any encoder from Bevo is now considered "suspect." Five percent (5%) of the stock of 120 position encoders were from Bevo. After discussing the issue with management, it is determined a 99% reliability of the position encoder subsystem is desirable. Assume all the encoders from Bevo are defective. Calculate the reliability of position encoder subsystem and state whether the current configuration using the six position encoders drawn from the parts stock in the Logistics and Maintenance department is acceptable or unacceptable (e.g., does the reliability meet the desired level of 99%)?
