Please don’t play background music during the entire video. There’s already background noise in the interview. The music certainly doesn’t help. :(

WHAT IS THIS MUSIC?!?!?!?!?!

I've heard it in another video, but nobody knows what it is.

[tempusmaster]

The background music is one of the royalty free tracks that comes with Adobe Premiere. It comes from SmartSound Quicktracks.

Sir, you are a gentleman and a scholar.

Infinite internets to you.

I was thinking how come the designer use 4 wheels.... and I think 2 of the wheels helps the bot to do the break.... I have tried breaking using 2 wheels by instantly apply a very high voltage to the motor and then assert an inverse voltage to drive it forward...( like a 1 us pulse of V-) it kind of worked...but I have to take the motor capacitors out and replace it with diodes... ( because the charge time of the cap is like 2us and the slew time will slow it down),

random fact: TETRA micromouse finishes an "expert class" maze in 4.7 seconds!!

[tempusmaster]

TETRA's best time was 4.766 seconds, but was run after the competition ended. There's a video of the run on Robots Dreams in the Micromouse category.
