The robot will be moving parallel to the wall throughout the maze.

Sumo Bot, fights to the death Name: Creative Maze Runner Description: SbartaCreative runs through a maze with precision and speed! This robot was designed to crawl.
The goal was to emulate some form of motion without using traditional means, such as wheels. The robot walks forward. Once it comes up to an object, it stops and plays a song of failure.

The robot's song is similar to the song played when you die in an arcade game. I am happy with the design and crawling capabilities of the final robot. I would improve it my adding the ability to turn and walk backwards, then add to the program so that the robot would turn when it saw an object, rather tan just stopping.
