Full Cost Breakdown of Prototype Components A detailed financial breakdown of the components used to build the micro mouse was meticulously provided by one of our team members. This extensive list encompassed everything from sensors and motors to PCBs and the board used in the construction. Offering a precise financial overview, this breakdown is crucial […]
Reflection on Sustainability in Design Sustainability was a central theme in our design phase, influencing every decision made. During different operational phases of the micro mouse, such as obstacle avoidance, line following, and combat, we strategically adjusted motor speeds to optimize power consumption. This approach not only saved energy but also extended the operational life
When dealing with blowing the whistle the first thing is to thinks if the disclosure of wrongdoing serve the public interest that meaning it impacts others, like the general public. Whistleblowers are safeguarded by law and should not face unjust treatment or job loss for coming forward. this is reinforced by the IET and the

This topic is very important as when it came to our group for the project, we where all from 4 different country’s with English only being two people first language we also have different types of society levels within the group as well as well as age range. This then gives us a grate chance

Reflecting on Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion in Our Engineering Team In the realm of engineering, the imperative to integrate an Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) agenda into our academic and professional practices isn’t merely a formal requirement; it’s a pivotal aspect of modern engineering ethics and practice. The Engineering Council’s stipulations under the Accreditation of

Autonomous vehicles (AVs) represent a significant advancement in Intelligent automation technology, capable of navigating roads independently for portions of a journey. These vehicles are equipped to make split-second decisions autonomously, aimed at preventing accidents and ensuring passenger safety. Despite these capabilities, ethical concerns arise, particularly in scenarios where accidents are unavoidable. There is ongoing research

In April this was a very big month for me as i had a lot to do starting with the solid works design the original one was a little bit to small so i had to redesign it to make it larger to fit our micro mouse. i also was working on the 2nd pcb

April, in fact, is already the end of the final, only one week to final commissioning, after which we will conduct an off-campus course to evaluate the series of designs. For us, time is far from enough, our ideas are very ambitious, but also need to spend all the same, in the end just barely

EDI promotes an understanding of and responsibility for inclusion, equality and diversity, and these are true within our team. At the beginning of the formation of this team, not everything is complete, in fact, most of the members can be responsible for overlapping aspects, and even a shortage. But this is also the case, everyone

Today’s engineers need to integrate the concept of sustainability into their designs, and the same is true for our project design. Today’s completed projects cannot directly talk about sustainable use, but they can also consider future integration. The first aspect is to integrate sustainability into the design, which must be the material and energy consumption
