I was asked by Mr Peter Harrison if I was able to contribute something for Minos 2016 hosted at UK. I took some of my times and made a pre-recorded video to intemperate the idea of the power system design on my latest Micromouse, Green Giant 5.17V.
The subject of the presentation is:

The image above is the maze for this competition, and there were typically 2 paths for speed runs, Marked in Blue and Green. If the mouse successfully made search on the way to cente[……]
Classic Micromouse Expert group Final Results:
Green Path: 113 cells 17 turns
Purple Path: 88 cells 34 turns
The 1st and 2nd places chose the purple path, and they are vacuum design
The 6th place(Ng BengKiat) chose the green path, however he only made 1 speed without the max setti[……]

Around all micromouse players in the world, the magnetic buzzer from PUI Audio SMT-0540 is the most commonly used for a long time due to its compact size and great sound quality. The package yields 5x5x2.1mm size which is the smallest I can find with proper power supply range and loudness.

Crystal is on the most often used clock source for micro-controller. It requires 2 capacitor with same value(typically) connect between the 2 terminals of the crystal and the ground in order to match the load capacitance of the crystal that you are using.
Here is the how you calculate the[……]
