I think the most technically impressive one was the one with the built-in camera which used images taken from several angles to find the most efficient route to center.
I would like to see a micromouse spilt into 2 or more sub mouse to explore the maze faster by communication their discoveries with each other, and then work together to get all mouse to the finish goal
the way these comps work i think, is that the first run is used to 'learn' the maze, then the second run is all about speed. the problem with the camera bot, is that is as fast as it goes. all the others went much faster on their second run.
I wondered why it seemed the 'fast version' of each run was counted as points... not necessarily (or entirely) the first slower run... then I realised that the mouse was learning the maze, and as it made it's initial way back from the center, it was trying to find an alternative faster route! So the initial slower run wasn't necessarily the same route as the second faster one... That was pretty interesting to me!
because the best score = current run time + (past maze time /30) + possible penalty. Therefore the best score is likely to be the first speed run without touch penalty.
I wonder why some robots would pass up the first right turn @13:11 but then successfully hit the second right @13:19, instead of going to the end of the hall and going around the corner?
fascinating competition, I loved seeing the bots that were just complete speed demons. The camera bot is cool but all that extra weight really lowers his overall agility.
Telescoping camera bot should have been ranked higher but I guess they don't want bots hacking the map by getting a spectators view on their own. I mean what's next, drone air support? OMG that sounds great!
I liked the super efficient and messy one that kept beeping while running into walls. I was still programmed better in the sense that it knew the end point. It was also SUPER FAST. In my opinion the ones that do not know the end point need work to be perfect.
How the hell did the one with the extendable camera and the computer vision and the insane processing power lose? It went straight to the center of the maze perfectly, first try!!! The others may have been faster but they took multiple tries!! That doesn't count for x4 points or something?
the first try for every participant was to explore the maze ... the participants maybe were allowed multiple tries but the fastest micromouse to the center wins p.s. sorry for foul english
Just before this video, I watched one from Japan. It finished in 7+secs. You barely see the micromouse ... it is like 1/3 the size of the "micromouses" in this video.
The Japanese guy given 10th place should have been the clear winner on ingenuity alone. Then he should have been made a double winner on safety too. Imagine all those walls that the other 9 crashed into were pedestrians! The Japanese guy's entry is what autonomous cars are all about, ie, learn the route first then travel the route without a single mistake. For example, apply these top ten entrants to a real life road and all the other 9 except the Japamese would have crashed into the first wall and been undrivable from there on. Notice the Japanese guy's car did not make a single mistake whereas every other one was crashing into walls using brute force trial and error. So what they were faster that's not the goal in autonomous driving. The goal is safety and and on that score it was Japanese guy 100%, the rest 0% That fact went right over the heads of the other crews and the organizers and the attending audience.
I noticed the 10th place guy knock into a wall @6:47. Also, this little competition is mouse based. Mice have the interesting capability to complete similar mazes if enticed by something like food. It's this propensity in mice that inspired the competition. Autonomous driving vehicles will rely heavily on GPS, the goal will not be unknown for such vehicles. These mechanical mice clearly have a completely different job than simply relying on GPS, and it would be a fantasy to attempt to translate them into something like the vehicles that you see on the street.
Think of it this way imagine that being a spy equipment and they would try to send that thing of on a vent..which means there's something on the top..it can't really picture where it's going..also the only way where he can sensor any obstacle or way it could go is on the beginning imagine all of the sudden it came to a pedestrian lane and peoples are about to cross he didn't really pictured that in the first place..
As far as I know fastest run from start to finish. They have a set amount of time for exploring and trying to finish as fast as possible. Or they have two runs were the first is just for exploring and the second is for taking the time.
they are not allowed to reprogram the mouse. no one knows the path before search. The camera one took a picture of the maze and did some image processing.
Actually it was programmed to have a right turn as the first option in an intersection . Thats why it took the first right and u can confirm it later when another intersection comes.
The injectifier in the trombolinier with subfractors interdispersed throughout the varience of the quadmidifier for the 4th mouse (mus) , should invariably, by a common denominator, besmurchified the overkinetic significance between the trachiadacotimer upon the 4th power without significance, unless, of course, it is without the partisimonly. Almost every time. I was wrong once, but then I was mistaken.
You forgot the redundance of the post gradient analytic synopsis: the polarization of the over-clip has more significance, if you consider the partial predominance in the structural framing... geez
dario il diario , no, no, no. You can't have it both ways. This has been proven time and time again. The under/over psumpler, the p is silent, is in contrast to the polarization magnums by 30. It's been proven. SMH. I thought everybody knew that.

Jacob Nielsen u think it will against the cureent rules by leaving stuff behind. Lol.
just make them connect back up :d
@@pawelec555 you could have a spool of. Wire that connects the heavy batteries with a forward section that completes the maze. Still attached :)
that is a brilliant idea
The Japan one was amazing.
just because its different, which is good
Yeah it was cool. Also it was clever that used a picture instead of just exploring about the Maze. Also for convinemce heres the timestamp. 4:58
@@mister_nxt5442 love you mate
Even though the camera bot lasted a long time procesing the path he used only one run to learn the maze and run it, wasnt he suppousted to win?

@@benjimoomoo since he never used 2nd turn, doesn't that mean 0?
Exactly what i thought that was out of the box thinking
I watched this video 3 years ago, and searched the whole RUclips just for that camera one.
link or it didn't happen
But can they vacuum floors?

Oooohhhh I get this now
I was expecting actual mice...
Hehe I was watching mice in narrow maze then saw world competition..I thought wtf there's actually a sport in this....then I see robots...hahaha
THE FUTURE IS NOW, OLD MAN!
East no, now is the present...
imthiyaaz fiaz was there a shrew involved 👀
for me, he of the camera is the best :)
David Figueroa the problem with camera bot is in actual caves or holes you cant cheat by taking a helicoper shot of the fuckin maze.
@@Fighterbharat Yes you can, give it a sonar or ultrasound camera to map out the maze through rock.
Love the Mario victory music by the 4th place!
14:57
22:33 handshake failed😂😂😂
The one that cheated and took the picture first was dope lol
01:10 it usually.... What?! tell me! WHAT?!
Duuude
It took me 3 days trying to assemble my shoes cabinet and i ended up calling the company to do it for me
2:11 is the best
the robot said
"AIGHT IMMA HEAD OUT"
Does at the beginning it mean "Fort Worth, TEXAS" not TAXES
You are right, but too late to change :-(
You can still fix it in the description though
too lazy XD
Green ye saaaaame
I wonder why some robots would pass up the first right turn @13:11 but then successfully hit the second right @13:19, instead of going to the end of the hall and going around the corner?
Some sort of optimal algorithm I assume. If you pay attention it also has some unexpected turns throughout the runs

DAMN Japans one the best with camera XD God damn.
the robot knows where it is at all times, it knows this because it knows where it isn't
2:08 That's me when i forgot to buy milk.
so what determines the ranking placement? is it time?
I wanted to hear the announcer talk about history and trivia. I'll have to see if there's a full version anywhere.
22:33 awkward handshake

In my opinion the ones that do not know the end point need work to be perfect.
8:16 Why no one clapped?
so that's what larry david does in his free time
1:26 that old man with the mic looks like Larry David (from Curb Your Enthusiasm) and sounds like Obama.
edit: 6:50 lol
15:42 Japanese one
Can anyone explain the reason for the lint roller around 8:30
clean the tire with better traction for speed run.
I wonder who would have fastest time without second run. A first run for mapping the maze is nice idea, but kinda beats the purpose.
Японцы. Как всегда на высоте. Все гениально просто !

i thought that guy was obama

So smart japanese ... lol
Not smart enough to prevent 2 nukes being dropped on them. lol
Bosnian Prince Can anyone do it too?
No.
Not smart enough to avoid shitty racism. lol
I'm not even trying to hide it dingus. Use your brain.
Arya Stark
Valar morghulis
imagine that robot in the backrooms
2:13 so close, yet so far.. the japanese guy was pretty clever to use a motorized camera
as a westerner i feel like a muggle watching those last few wizards showing everyone how it is done! :P
First place 19:20
5:37 is he cheating)?
how do they judge these because some of them should have gotten better ranks then others
The fastest run from start to finish in a set amount of time. As far as I know.

that camerarobot is my winner
WELL DONE! now i know that my robot is just garbage
I want to see all of these robots in a bot battle for supremacy after this competition
How are the mice scored? The rankings make little sense to me
As far as I know fastest run from start to finish. They have a set amount of time for exploring and trying to finish as fast as possible. Or they have two runs were the first is just for exploring and the second is for taking the time.
@@Luca-pd6bq I feel like some lower-ranked mice have faster completion time than some higher-ranked ones?
6:41 "WOW"
too much time spent on autonomous action before ethical reaction
DDOI brought me here.
What kind of sensors do they use? I mean with ultrasound or something they could map way more instead of driving against a direct wall?
Sjard Willems v infared sensor. Encoder, gyro
Why can some know the path and others not? Are they allowed to reprogram after seeing the maze?
they are not allowed to reprogram the mouse. no one knows the path before search. The camera one took a picture of the maze and did some image processing.
This is racist against black people. That one black competitor. In agents were over-represented... #sarcasm
Vocês são feras ..parabéns.🇧🇷
Holy crap the USA is WAY behind Japan in micromouse tech
2:12 NOOOOOOOOOOO.......
How do you misspell Texas?
yeah, shame.
This is kind of lame compared to the Japanese contests...
6:50 👍 pemetaan map
Second place was the best
I was looking up how to get the free vbucks, how did I end up here? And why did I watch the entire thing? And why do I want to watch more of this?
7:02 It's like it already know the map.
Actually it was programmed to have a right turn as the first option in an intersection . Thats why it took the first right and u can confirm it later when another intersection comes.
20:29 was pretty amazing ..
How is this scored? cause the 2nd place was way slower than 3rd???
Robotic mice during the day, burning shit down at night, welcome Portland U!
I tougth what about a robot got high up and tool a picture and boom, there it is 5:15
The podium. China, China, China (Trump voice)
Maze which can be solved by sticking on either hand, yes but now we're here.
DSP can do without realative measure.
OMG those photo ops at the end are so cringeworthy. Clearly this guy isn't used to having his picture taken xD
8:58 Can't leave anything behind in the maze. *builds robot that ejects camera out of the maze*
Review rules of entry: Camera telescope breaks the plane of maze. the optics are supposed to be from top wall to floor not above.
Fuck with this smart ass engineers..I could even barely connect wires..
8:08 that had got to be cheating? How the heck did this one know
the camera man or lady are pretty bad . I was getting dizzy .
So the competition results are only based on the second run? Once the mouse has scouted the maze?
The injectifier in the trombolinier with subfractors interdispersed throughout the varience of the quadmidifier for the 4th mouse (mus) , should invariably, by a common denominator, besmurchified the overkinetic significance between the trachiadacotimer upon the 4th power without significance, unless, of course, it is without the partisimonly. Almost every time. I was wrong once, but then I was mistaken.

Whats going on? Is it a remote control mouse car
Okay why did the camera robot not win?
666 subs
They should make it where no one knows the design of the map.
I honestly know so much about coding and laser sensing with coding I would beat all of them honestly...
why dont you do it then fucker? rhetorical question; it's easy to talk, not so easy to actually DO something, right?
Dang, fast.
*its usually the Asian that wins.*
Why is Obama narrating a mouse maze
5:20 AMAZING
17:27 me gusto mas el sonidito
Oh man, this is just begging for shrouds and active downforce.
Can I now what are the programme used In that robotic car...
My how things have changed...
If only they put Multiple mouses to see who gets to win first :(
SMH it's not impressive if the robot knows the route.
the states version of this is pathetic
ma che figata pazzesca!!!!
2:19 what the fuck is that laughter
why are only old people participating?
Paulo Castro because they're smart
and have jobs to make the bots, jobs for younger people should be legal
Paulo Castro do u read before you post?
