Yeah, but what good is such robot if you can’t even have sex with it?

World's Fastest Rubik's Cube Solving Robot

The world record for a human to solve the Rubik's Cube is 4.904 seconds, while the machine
record is 3.253 seconds. A robot, however, is looking to smash those times as it can solve the
puzzle in just over a second.

I like the solution where they use to sell sheets of color stickers to “solve” the cube. ;-)

When that thing becomes self-aware, we’re screwed...

My son can solve the 3 x 3 in 2 minutes and the 2 x 2 in 18 seconds.

They should just need one working camera.

All they have to do is rotate the cube before they begin so that the one camera can see all the faces.

So how much ‘pre-analysis’ time is this robot being given before starting the solve?

That may be how they are beating the earlier machine times by so much time.

The thing that always gets about stories like this. They forget that humans program the robots. They don’t spring to life off the 3D printer.
