Description
Line tracking mouse kit uses three photo interruptors to track a dark line on a white backgroud

Quick to assemble and requires soldering
Ages: 14+
The Line Tracking Mouse Kit will follow a black line drawn on white paper. Create the road layout with black electronic tape or draw it with a black marker. Line Tracking Mouse uses 3 photo interrupters as its "eyes" which distinguishes black and white by projecting infrared rays.
Simple hand tools required for assembly (screw driver, pliers).
I built this with my daughter. It was pretty fun but some things could be improved. For instance, some of the soldering spots are pretty close to each other. Definitely not for beginners. Also, it took us a while to figure out that we had to make noise (?!) for the mouse to move. Still not sure why there is a mic in there... Warning: the mouse follows wide tape much better than regular electrical tape. Still it was a fun afternoon project.
