Researchers have developed a new pipeline for generating maze structures from input patterns like text or shapes. This process involves encoding the path-synthesis problem into Satisfiability Modulo Theories (SMT) as global constraints, ensuring adjacency, continuity, and pattern-constrained coverage. The synthesized paths can be planar and self-avoiding, or layered with prescribed crossings, serving as a foundation for creating both 2D mazes and 3D woven maze constructions. This work expands upon a previous conference paper by providing more SMT-LIB examples and detailing the conversion of synthesized paths into concrete maze designs. AI
