Thomas Messerschmidt's robot placed second in the 2017 RSSC Get Me a Beer Contest. Watch the live demo as the device uses an ultrasonic rangefinder to detect objects and navigate multiple attempts to locate its target.

It's got caffeine in it, I guess. Darn it.
That's okay, that's only my first try.
Yeah, try again.
Try, try again.
Okay. You got 3 tries. No. Okay.
So is it detecting the shape, or are you detecting—
It's only using one, uh, ultrasonic Uh, rangefinder. Oh, okay. There's a pixel. Oh, there it is. There you go.
Sweet. Is it gonna find you? Are you gonna find it?
That's it, huh?
