Defeat the Robots! Save the Day by Escaping the Robot Guards!

To save the day, you must get past the robots protecting their command center. But be careful. The robots follow a secret set of instructions (an algorithm) that determines how they move. Can you outsmart the robots and get to their base without being caught? In this interactive exhibit, participants will learn about algorithm design and analysis while seeing how well they can perform against our strategies in a simulated, interactive game.
