Even Robots like Rubiks Cubes!

Posted by Erin, the RobotGrrl on Thursday, December 27th, 2007

For those that don’t understand how to solve Rubiks cubes, now there is a robot to help you out!

The robot "Cube kun", manufactured by Japan’s Kawasaki Heavy Industries can solve a Rubik’s Cube in less than three minutes on an average.

I remember at MIT Splash there was a class on how to solve Rubiks cubes, and they gave everyone that attended a sheet with simple steps on how to solve it, then they were Rubiks solving champs! I suppose the robot has those steps as algorithms imbedded in its program. Sweet! It would be neat to build one of these over the summer with an Arduino

Styrobots



    The story of my Styrobots begins with my acceptance into the Stanford EPGY Summer Institutes Artificial Intelligence program for 2008. In order to go there, I needed money! So, I came up with Styrobots.
    All of the money from Styrobots goes towards my Robotic Fund. This enables me to buy parts for the robots that I enjoy creating!
    I appreciate all help! :D
