'MazeMaster 2025' was an engaging event designed to nurture innovation and problem-solving skills among undergraduate students from local universities. Participants had the opportunity to design and build robots capable of autonomously navigating a maze. The competition comprised multiple stages, including an online introductory session, a discussion on robot design, and the main maze-solving event. This event served as a platform for participants to showcase their technical expertise, problem-solving abilities, and teamwork. A panel of expert judges evaluated the competition based on declared criteria.

Online Introductory Session: The competition commenced with an online introductory session hosted by the organizing committee. Participants were briefed on the competition rules, guidelines, and technical requirements.

Discussion on Robot Design: Following the introductory session, a discussion on robot design was conducted, providing insights into key problem-solving approaches and technical aspects essential for building autonomous maze-navigating robots.

Maze-Solving Event: The main event of the competition was the maze-solving challenge, where participants’ designed robots autonomously navigated a predefined maze. The maze featured twists, turns, dead ends, and obstacles, creating a challenging environment for the robots to navigate.
