With our mentors this week we built mazes and used the small robotic Hexbugs to run through the maze. We had a lot of questions. Could the Hexbugs learn the maze? Did they have a pre-programmed set of directions they would follow every time? Are Hexbugs programable? How strong is a Hexbug? Can you build a maze that a Hexbug cannot escape except by the way you want them to go? Would a more intelligent Hexbug have better luck in the maze? Would it make a difference if the bugs could climb? Lots of discovery today!
