The area is 4' x 4' square surrounded by walls made of 1" x 4" boards (slightly decreasing the arena area). The floor of the area is smooth brown press-board. Two more walls are attached inside to form a very simple maze. Black electrical tape marks the start and target areas. Seven paper tubes are placed in a grid as shown in the diagram. The tubes are common toilet paper tubes (4.5" high, 1.75" diameter).
The objective is to pick up, move, and/or knock down the tubes. The robot must start completely within the 12" x 16" starting area. Once activated, the robot must operate without any human guidance.
