RuBot II: Robot that Solves Rubik’s Cubes in under 50 Seconds

Sun, Oct 15, 2006

Robotics






This badass-looking robot is known as RuBot II, a robot that can solve any Rubik’s Cube in under 50 seconds. It speaks in a rather gentlemanly manner. And upon placing a Rubik’s Cube on its tray, it picks it up, scans the cube with its camera-fitted eyes, and goes on to solving it in blazing speed.



If there is going to be a RuBot III, I would love to see it look more “friendly” and not like it’s going to fry the kid with a laser beam any minute.

    LOL… they need to rid of em 1902ish sound effects the robot does when solving the cube. but ya that bot does look a little evil… little timmy is no more lol

  3. WORMSS Says:

    the sound effects you will find is the start of “Short Circuit” intro, when you see the parts being put together for the title screen…

    i am now gonna go back into my little corner and await the “get a life” comments.

    Dang. I was waiting for it to try to solve li’l Timmy’s head.

    “PLEASE PLACE YOUR MEAT SACK OF A NERVE CENTER NEAR TRAY.”
    “What?”
    “It will improve our youtube rating.”
    “Okay sure!

    AAAAHHHHH-”
    “NEXT TIME MESS IT UP RIGHT YOU LITTLE BASTARD.”
    .

    Now THAT would earn a million views.

  9. Dre Says:

    Woah .. that thing looks like the freakin’ terminator or something .. poor kid almost died like 12 times.

    I was half-expecting the robot to go “please stand back” before solving the puzzle.

  10. k235 Says:

    lol fake. that thing obviously just records what the kid is doing with his hands and reverses it. either that or the kid uses the same scrambling method every time.

    joking aside: the robot needs to be more friendly-looking! this way he looks like the korean border robots ought to.
