Hybrid Micro Mouse Challange 2026 BUILD. PROGRAM. CONQUER.
About the Challenge
Are you ready to put your robotics, programming, and engineering skills to the test?
The Hybrid Micro Mouse Challenge 2026, hosted by Alliance University as part of Alliance ONE, invites students to build, program, and test autonomous robots in a competition that combines line tracking and maze solving.
The challenge requires a single robot to complete two stages in one continuous run. First, it must follow a black line on a white surface. Next, it must navigate a walled maze without a guiding line and reach the goal using its own sensors, control logic, and navigation strategy.
This is more than a race. It is a hands-on test of sensor integration, embedded systems, autonomous decision-making, algorithm design, and hardware–software integration.
The Two-Zone Challenge
Zone A — Line Tracking
Navigate a course featuring a 3 cm-wide black line on a white surface. Your robot must track the path independently and respond to line deviations without human guidance.
Zone B — Maze Solving
Enter a walled maze with no guiding line, explore the available paths, and navigate towards the goal. Develop a reliable maze-solving strategy and, where supported, retain learned map information between runs to improve performance.
Who Can Participate?
The applicable eligibility requirements depend on the edition:
Please follow the eligibility requirements stated on the registration page for your selected edition.
Competition Format
Teams participate in three timed qualifier runs. The six highest-performing teams advance to the final, where they receive three timed runs on a new course layout.
The best final score in each round counts. Scores are calculated using run time in seconds plus applicable penalties, so reliable navigation and accurate execution are just as important as speed.
Build. Test. Compete.
Bring your robot, refine your algorithms, calibrate your sensors, and prepare to tackle the challenge. Whether your strength lies in electronics, embedded programming, or algorithmic problem-solving, this competition offers an opportunity to turn engineering concepts into practical results.
One robot. Two zones. Complete autonomy.
Join the Hybrid Micro Mouse Challenge 2026 and prove your ability to build, program, and conquer.
