are you smarter than a robot?!?!?

(it might not matter the robot is pretty fast)

Join @shakao, @jwunderl, and me as we code a robot to solve a maze! The robot is using the left hand rule - if you put your left hand on the wall and always follow that you’ll eventually find your way out. But a human player should be able to do it better…right???

Watch the full stream here: [https://youtu.be/vNX7TRS7fXI](https://youtu.be/vNX7TRS7fXI)

Hmmm it looks like 1250 is the max my extensions path following can handle without hitting walls too much to speed up:

This is not helping my self-confidence (Which after playing this game, has been reduced to nothingness.) But still it’s a great game and pretty impressive.
