During February we focused on getting our micro mouse to stop spinning in a circle, when doing obstacle avoidance our micro mouse couldn’t follow a straight line. We thought it was a hardware issue, maybe the motors were not spinning evenly or their was uneven power ,it turned out to Read more…
Due to exams we were only able to have one lesson during January so we didn’t do anything during this time ,except solder some unconnected components together and we began testing our obstacle avoidance.
The amount of time we had during this month was short due to the Christmas break, although we still tried to make the most of it. During this month we were fixing a problem on our pcb, the LEDs were not lighting up because of short circuits and broken connections. Read more…
In November we used our prototype of the breadboard circuit to create a pcb design on proteus ,overall the design was ok there were no faults, no design rule checks ,however the placement of the components were way too close together,J3 and J4 which are the ir receivers were not Read more…
In October was the month we were introduced to our partners ,we got to know each other through small conversations and planning our project for the micro mouse project. We’ve mainly focused on developing the skills required for this project such as microcontroller programming and also pcb design using Arduino Read more…
Ethics is a fundamental aspect of engineering, shaping how engineers approach their responsibilities and interact with society. As an engineering student and future professional, I pledge to uphold ethical principles in my academic and professional work. I commit to practicing honesty and integrity by ensuring that my work is original Read more…
