IEEE Micromouse (FA22)

The IEEE Micromouse DeCal is aimed at students with a strong interest in robotics, who want to pursue a hardware project but may not have the resources to do so on their own. The course will be taught in the context of IEEE’s Micromouse competition, in which students form teams of 2-3 to navigate a 16x16 maze. By the end of the semester, students will be able to build an autonomous, maze-solving robot with minimal assistance, using skills that are extendable to real-world robotics problems. Special focus is given to topics including electrical and firmware engineering, brushed motors, sensing, pathfinding, and control theory. This course fits in with other courses in the department like EE16B.

This semester, we're testing out a relatively new (developed last year) robot design along with updated curriculum called MMv3.
