Robot Mice Solve Mazes With Blazing Speed (Video)
- RiderOfGiraffes 17y agoI was present at the micromouse competition the first time a mouse ran diagonally down a zig-zag path. It drew audible gasps from the audience, followed by a round of applause and standing ovation. I'm not sure, but I think it was MITEE mouse. I had been intending to enter, but the night before I plugged in the EEPROM the wrong way round and fried it. I didn't have a spare, so that was it. I ran out of time to enter the following year, and never got back to it. I still have the mouse ... I wonder if I could ressurect it, just out of interest. In my copious free time.
- GrandMasterBirt 17y agoI like how eventually the AI knows to just go diagonally (with some corrections) through some zigzags. Also pretty impressive just how fast the reactions are, not necessarily from a computational standpoint but from seeing just how slow human reaction is.
