WolfieMouse

WolfieMouse is a robotics project to build a micromouse. This project covers three parts:

  • Robotics algorithm for maze solving (C++)
  • low-level hardware driver software (C and ARM assembly)
  • Tools to capture and plot robot's sensor data (Python)
  • Embedded hardware design and PCB design (KiCad, an open-source alternative to Altium)

This robot won:

  • The Special Mention Award in 2018 IEEE Region 1 Micromouse Robotics Competition.
  • The 3rd Place Award in 2019 IEEE Region 1 Micromouse Robotics Competition.

Get started

If you don't know what is micromouse competition, this document will help..

Requires tools:

Otherwise, a Vagrant virtual machine environment is provided to skip installing the above tools.

If you whish to start with this project, see get stared document.

Documentation

See documentation section.
