Having a robot be aware of it's position in a maze

[skelly89]

Nice post - I actually use many of the techniques described in the robot I posted. I was actually referencing how long it would physically take to draw a maze that large haha. The simple 5x5 maze that I used in that video took me about an hour, but I also was being a perfectionist so it probably could have taken me less, but it's still something I probably wouldn't want to devote that much time to. Very interesting post though! I was also considering implementing an A* algorithm in my search, I think that would be a cool and useful addition to this project.

Did you consider using black (and I guess yellow) tape to layout your maze? Usually much quicker for this sort of thing...
