Preliminary Design Review Micromouse Team: Ocha

Team Members Kanoa Jou Ryan Sato KiWoon Ahn Brett Ikei

Overview of the Project  Traditional top down style mouse  Implementing infrared sensors  Implementing stepper motors  Begin with an easy design  Making mice a wall hugger or random turns  Design more complicated algorithm  Mouse can find the quickest way to the center

Block Diagram Mouse/Motors Battery Rabbit Sensor

Rabbit Module  Inputs from the sensors  Algorithm  Code

Inputs from the Sensor  Sensor layout

Algorithm  Right wall hugger  Go straight while front sensor is false and right sensor is true  Turn right when right sensor is false  Turn left when right sensor and front sensor is true.

Incomplete Tasks  Build  Complete circuit  Mounting of Sensors  Power supply  Combining all components  Code

Potential Problems  Power supply not adequate  Hardware  Wheels not aligned  Body not balanced
