Initial Deisgn

Goal

The goal of the “A-Maze-ing challenge” is to design and implement a software for the PICO robot to navigate through a maze autonomously while optimizing time.

Requirements

1) To program a PICO robot to participate in the “A-Maze-ing challenge”. 2) The PICO robot should be able to navigate through the maze autonomously. 3) The PICO robot should be able to navigate through any maze regardless of its configuration. 4) The PICO robot should be able to avoid all obstacles during its navigation through the maze including contact with the walls of the maze. 5) The PICO robot should never get “stuck” at any position in the maze. 6) The PICO robot should be able to make use of its sensors to navigate the maze. 7) The PICO robot should have some sort of “memory” that prevents it from moving back towards paths already navigated through. 8) The PICO robot should be able to find the optimal path through the maze while optimizing time. 9) After navigating through the maze, the PICO robot should be able to autonomously terminate its movement.
