Worked on the code for the wondering, as discussed in the last post
Worked on maze mapping/exploring the maze
Mechanical
IEEE had a soldering workshop recently, so we got a free perfboard from them
Howdy! Welcome to the official blog of the Texas A&M University Eta Kappa Nu Micromouse competition team. For more information, please visit our website at http://hkn.tamu.edu/micromouse or knock on our lab door - 225A in Zachry

We talked about ways to correct wondering when moving around the maze.
To start off with something simple, every few squares, it will compare the sensor values and determine if the difference between them is too large. If so, rotate one of the wheels a small fraction. Something along these lines. It will be a bit slow, but this way we can use the code already written.

Michael and Luke got the LEDs to work. We'll be needing a perfboard to solder everything together.
We could potentially start designing a PCB if we are pleased with all the parts.
