How to Make a Wireless Path Tracking System Using Mouse, #XBee and #Arduino engineersgarage/embedded/arduino/how-to-make-a-wireless-path-tracking-system-using-mouse-xbee-and-arduino This project demonstrates how it is possible to make a simplest path tracking device for a ground vehicle with the help of optical mouse. The optical mouse is a device which has a very small camera inside it which can sense the movement of the ground below it and communicate the change in the X-Y coordinate with an external device through simple serial communication protocols. This project makes use of an optical mouse which works on PS2 protocol and is interfaced with an Arduino board to read the data from it. The data from the mouse is then transmitted wirelessly using anXbee transceiver pair to a distant computer where the data is displayed graphically as a track in which the mouse movement occurs.
