Block Diagram Mapping Tracking Motors/Chassis Maneuvering Functions
Motors/Chassis Motors –Make mouse move –Turn –Keep track of distance traveled Chassis –Hold everything together Motors Batteries Sensor array Circuits
Motor-Driver Circuit
Chassis Construction
Battery & Chassis
Tracking Staying in center of path Keeping track of walls Finding turn openings Clearing turns Reversing Sensor placement
Maneuvering Moving forward/backwards Making turns Set distance in wheels vs. Looking with sensors
Mapping Turning decisions Finding fastest route Storing bad cells (dead ends)
