Proposal Presentation EE 396 – Micromouse Spring 2008 Saturday, February 9, 2008 Donald Kim Lab - POST 214
2
Team Mighty Mouse Mark Fujihara Team Leader, Hardware Designer Bryant Komo Hardware Designer David Ota Programmer
3
Project Overview Build an autonomous robot mouse that can find the center of a 16 x 16 maze, then calculate the shortest/fastest path to the center and make multiple runs.
4
Our Approach Hardware Side looking sensors Unipolar/Bipolar stepper motors Printed circuit board Software Flood Fill Algorithm Solving Algorithm Mapping Code Sensing & Movement Code
5
Potential Problems Hardware Etching the circuit board Finding a balance between stability and weight for the chassis Software Mapping Solving Algorithm Other Staying within budget Staying on track and finishing on time
6
What we expect to learn… How to work in a team How to follow a budget How to etch a circuit board How to apply our knowledge and skills to a real life situation: Programming (algorithms, mapping, movement) Circuit building Debugging circuits and programs Learning from past mistakes doing Micromouse
7
Team Goals Implement the side looking sensor technology Build a mouse that can efficiently find the center of any maze Follow the flood fill algorithm Map the maze Solve the maze Make 45° turns Bring a mouse to the mainland and win!
