During the month of March, I continued to finish the shell of micromouse. After discussing with our team members, we decided to design a part that we can fix the shell on the micromouse with screws. Except this part, I also designed a spacer plate which can separate the sensors. In the end of the […]

For the march of blog before the Easter period, we have finalised the shell design and submitted it for printing. While that was done, l have been working on the OLED screen display to show which mode the micro mouse is operating it. We also perfected the white line following and now our aim is

Throughout the month of march I have been working on redesigning an improved version of the white line sensor as the old white line sensor gave different values for the same surface and the 2 front sensors was not on a single circuit board. There have been some issues that have developed with the line
Over the duration of March, the team has been hard at work and we have made substantial progress in regard to our micromouse objectives. As manager I have overseen tasks relevant to micromouse advancement such as white-line following, shell design and combat. I have assisted Adam with white-line following with measurements and assembly of a
In the month of February, the team has made a very gallant effort in terms of progression and the results are clear. Since the start of February, I have altered the PCB design so that it is more efficient in terms of space and now has an additional circuit on the back. Once the circuit

We resumed the micro mouse project in February and l have been working along with Adam on the white line sensor. I soldered the white line sensor onto the variable board at the front for white line following and another set at the back for combat mode.

During the month of February, our team gained great process in the white line following algorithm and the PCB IR sensor circuit. I dedicated to researching the shell of our micromouse. In early February, our team had a meeting about the appearance of the shell. Finally, we decided to use blue koopa as the shell’s

Throughout the past month I have been working on the white line following algorithm. Much progress has been made and the micro mouse can now follow a white line although the program still needs some improvement as there are still some issues that can occur. Good progress has also been made with the shell design

I have thoroughly reviewed the ethics and sustainability principles and the IET rules of conduct. After reading through each key principles, I further understand the importance of following ethical principles and bellow are my thoughts on each key principle. The 1st point is “honest and integrity”. I understand it is important to act in a

Throughout the month of December we have been further improving the PCB design by adding a special feature which will allow the circuit to activate the integrated buzzer when the infra-red sensor detects an obstacle. We have found that a better way of activating the integrated buzzer circuit may be to use the Raspberry pi
