3
Overview of the Project
  • Micromouse
  • Competition where autonomous robotic mice compete
    to find the center of a maze in the shortest time
    possible.
  • Competition rules must be followed
  • Ex Mice must not exceed 25cm x 25cm

4
Overall Design
  • Traditional top down style mouse
  • Implementing infrared sensors
  • Implementing stepper motors
  • Making mouse a wall hugger

5
Goals
  • Moving mouse
  • Able to turn
  • Follow walls
  • Track its position
  • Find the center

Design Decisions
  • Right wall hugger
  • Go straight while front sensor is false and right
    sensor is true
  • Turn right when right sensor is false
  • Turn left when right sensor and front sensor are
    true
  • Tracking
  • When left sensor is off, speed up left wheel
    (adjust right)
  • When right sensor is off, speed up right wheel
    (adjust left)

Problems
  • Incorrect circuit
  • Rewired the circuit
  • Faulty equipment
  • LEDs
  • Rabbit
  • Mosfets
  • Sensors
  • Code
  • Tracking

11
Suggestions
  • Dont fry the Rabbit
  • Recheck circuit before soldering
  • Check circuit before hooking up to power supply
  • Cover exposed wires
  • Finish hardware quickly

12
Future Improvements
  • Organization of wires
  • Printed circuit board
  • Complex algorithm utilizing more sensors
  • Find center faster
  • Track efficiently
  • Easier adjustment of parts
  • Sensors
  • Chassis
  • Batteries
