Problems Encountered – Action Taken Parts/Fabrication Designing a working circuit - Soldering and etching imperfections - Getting the parts needed – Motor Driver Circuit - Programming Limited programming experience especially w/ Dynamic C Designing and coordinating separate functions into one working program Defining correct/workable parameters – Debugging –

Learning Experience Soldering & Etching Learn as we go Programming Increase circuit analysis skills Teamwork Communication Creating a working robot

Outstanding Problems & Suggestions Not all components work as they should – sensors not sensing Possibly change the sensors Improve etching skills Time to work on tracking, navigation, mapping, and solving is not adequate Need an early lead time Start very early on project – prior to start of semester

Final Status A floating rabbit It can make turns – a couple turns The mouse can track – for a time A sturdy chassis design It is easy to fix and replace parts
