I have started to develop the quadrature decoders for my mouse, a simple circuit and is mainly programming so its something I can do to break up exam revision. Here is a picture of the setup: The main board is an Explorer 16 with a 32 bit PIC microcontroller in there. I have the prototype [...]
Another year, another MINOS (UK Micromouse conference). This year I only went for the first day, the talks and testing, but was still a great experience. I got quite a few of my questions answered and am now ready to start working on my mouse proper. The day started off well, no waiting at stations [...]
Ok, its been a while since I did much more than think about my micromouse, but over the last week or so I actually did some ‘work’ on the sensor design… First off this is all theoretical, I need some bits an pieces before I can test this outside of simulation. Hopefully in the next [...]
Eep, its been a while, photoblog kind of died, way too busy Anyhow, here is a video of the robot from end of last year. Should have new videos of other stuff soon…
