Transcript of Micro-Mouse Rotech means robust mice technology..
Overview
• Build an autonomous mouse– Applying principles learned in class
• Circuit analysis• Digital design• Programming• Physics
– To construct an intelligent mouse• Navigate• Track• Find the center
The Approach
• We will apply 3 phases:– Concept and design
• Designing components to work efficiently together • Creating a chassis to fit our design
– Building and prototyping• Deciding upon the best component placement• Navigation testing
– Programming and testing• Implement the code• Debugging (hardware as well as software)
Potential Problems
• Personal conflicts– Design disagreements, differences in opinion, unequal
participation• Time management issues
– Differing schedules– Challenging classes (EE211 & 213)
• Accidents– Component failures caused by human error– Equipment failures
• Programming and design hurdles– It’s haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaard, remember 160?– Challenges in component placement
Tentative Learning Objectives
• Practical programming practice
• Working as a team of would-be engineers
• Circuit as well as digital design is applied to a goal
• Documenting our design and implementation challenges
What will really happen is..
• We will design, at the least, a presentable product
• We will design a mouse that is functioning– Moves accurately and quickly– Tracks its movements– Finds the center
