Robot Maze

robot-maze is a JavaFX application that simulates a robot navigating through a maze. The application loads a maze and a robot image, and the user can control the robot's movement through the maze using keyboard arrow keys. The robot cannot pass through the walls of the maze, and its movement is restricted to valid paths only.

Features

Maze and Robot visualization using JavaFX.
Keyboard controls to navigate the robot through the maze.
Collision detection to prevent the robot from passing through the maze walls.
Ability to reset the robot to its initial position.
