Explorer, a chess playing entity by Edward de Grijs which played the DOCCC 1991 and the DOCCC 1993. In 1993, Edward de Grijs came up with a new chess special purpose hardware controlled by a 386SX PC , searching 350,000 nodes per second.

=Selected Games= Despite losing, Explorer's first official game at the DOCCC 1991 round 1 versus Shess, was quite entertaining and worth to be published in ICCA Journal as one of two games in Peter van Diepen's report ...
