After reading the statement of ethical principles that was created jointly by the Royal Academy of Engineering and the Engineering Council. As an engineering student, I have a deeper understanding of these ethical principles. I recognize its importance, and I will strictly abide by the code of conduct. The first basic principle: Honesty and integrity. […]

Talking about the whistleblowing of the Ethics of Autonomous Vehicles. The team has a responsibility to take action in accordance with the IET’s Rules of Conduct. For example, there is a great possibility that some of the first production cars will kill pedestrians, which is because of design flaws. According to the file of Rules of Conduct

Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) is an essential strategy that ensures everyone has equal opportunities regardless of their background. The benefit of this strategy is team members can put forward opinions from themselves, which the team can have more diverse ideas. Such an environment not only boosts efficiency by aligning tasks with individual strengths but

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

In the progress of December, we used new code to run micromouse and discovered a problem with micromouse not walking in a straight line. I solved this problem by replacing the wheels with the same size and the motor with the same frequency. I also added wiring to make the micromouse run more consistently. In

In the month of November, our team continued the project of micromouse. I started with building the model of micromouse. For the first step, I changed the wheel so that both of the two wheels had similar speed. Then I installed the controller board and connected the circuit. After I uploaded the code to the
