Graduate Pete Bruns has created the best Tantrix playing robot, based on his COSC490 project. This robot, called 'Monte', successfully defeated the previous best bot in a game lasting 27 hours. The software is based on the Monte Carlo method.
To find out more, and to challenge the robot yourself (if you dare), see the Tantrix site.
