Watch the video of an even faster 0.637 seconds result, published in November 2016: The record was approved by Guinness World Records in mid-February, and breaks the previous record held by Cubestormer 3, a Lego robot that solved the puzzle in a time of 3.253 seconds. The project took hundreds of hours of coding, constructing and tuning, but as a result it is the “first robot that can independently inspect and solve a Rubik's Cube in 1 second.” Using these pictures, the laptop mapped out the cube and the colours and calculated a solution of 20 moves using an implementation of Herbert Kociemba’s Two-Phase-Algorithm, and these moves were transferred to the robot which performed them and solved the puzzle. Upon the start of the solve, two cameras connected to a laptop took two pictures, each showing three sides of the cube. A speedcube that had been modified to work with the robot (inspected and accepted by the World Cube Association) was scrambled with a randomly generated computer scramble. In January 2016 a robot called the Sub1 robot broke the World Record for the fastest cube-solving robot, with a time of 0.887 seconds at the Cubikon Store, Munich. This masterpiece appears in the 2010 Guinness Book of World Records as the world's fastest Rubik's Cube Robot, which means that it can solve a cube in less than 50 seconds.
We have to mention the human-like RuBot2 (see picture above), developed by Irish roboticist and inventor Pete Redmond. In the last years numerous interesting projects have been realized.
An accurate scanning system is required so the robot can recognize the colors of the scrambled cube. The goal is to create an algorithm which finds the optimal solution (as few steps as possible), and to build robotic arms which can handle the Rubik's Cube with the required precision and speed. The Magic Cube has attracted the attention of many informatitians and engineers, so a lot of interesting technical inventions, programs and Rubik's Cube Robots have been developed.
