A HTML5 Micromouse simulator

This web app can be used to test Micromouse algorithms in your web browser. It exposes a JavaScript Mouse API for controlling a simulated mouse running in a simulated maze. You can type your mouse driver code directly in a textbox on the web page.

There are a large number of mazes to test your mouse algorithm . These mazes have been used in Micromouse competitions. The source of these mazes are

Known Issues

• Currently there is no way to save the mouse driver code you type from the application. So if you want to save it you should cut and paste it to a file on your local machine.
• There is no error checking of the JavaScript mouse driver code. If you have errors in your code you many not find out until the code is running. If the page freezes up you may have to reload which may cause you to loose your changes.

This applicaiton is all client side JavaScript. The best bet might be to download and run it locally. This way you can edit and save your mouse driver code locally. It is also helpful to use Firefox's Firebug extension for debugging.
