What is micromouse game?

Micromouse Contest is a contest in which contestants enter their robots to compete for intelligence and speed while the robots negotiate a specified maze. A robot participating in this contest is termed a micromouse.

What is half size micromouse?

The half size contest has very similar rules to the classic contest except that the goal can be any pre-defined block of cells in the maze. Searching can take a lot longer so the time limit is increased from 5 minutes for the classic contest to 10 minutes in the half-size contest.

How do you make a micromouse robot?

Breadboard, wires.
Two 5 Volt mini DC Motors.
A small 7 to 9 volt battery.
7805 Voltage Regulator.
Hall sensor rotorary encoder.
H-Bridge.
Teensy (Or any small micro controller. Arduino works too!)
Two Distance Sensors (I used an infra red sensor)

How does a micromouse work?

Micromouse is an event where small robot mice solve a 16×16 maze. The maze is made up of a 16×16 grid of cells, each 180 mm square with walls 50 mm high. The mice are completely autonomous robots that must find their way from a predetermined starting position to the central area of the maze unaided.
