FAST Electronic Mouse Navigates A Maze In 4 Seconds

No description on Youtube, but it would seem the mouse is allowed ONE "dry run" to navigate the maze & then on the 2nd attempt has to get from A to B in the quickest time possible.

If the first run was allowed to learn the entire maze, then this isnt really that amazing a feat. If however the first run was just an attempt to find the end, but not learn the entire maze...then thats rediculous. Id love to see their algorithm.

Yeah, as part of the competition it is allowed a slower run to solve the maze. This is the second, speed run part where it attempts to reach the centre using the known route as fast as possible.

It's still amazing purely due to the sheer speed and accuracy of the movement.>> ^charliem:

If the Japanese had only had the advanced robotic technology that they have today back when Godzilla destroyed Tokyo, we'd all be driving Honda's and eating Sushi today.

Even the slow run is very impressive. There was only one time I say it checking a spot that wasn't logical to check (assuming it knew the center of the maze was the goal). And when it was backtracking it was fast! I know I couldn't make it, and I've never seen one like it. That qualifies as very impressive no matter how you cut it.
