A Russian-developed robot has broken the world record for speedcubing a Rubik's Cube. It solved it in 0.203 seconds.
The previous record holder was a robot from the Japanese company Mitsubishi Electric Corporation with a result of 0.305 seconds. The record was set at a special event on July 5, 2024.
I designed the robot specifically for assembling the cube and used publicly available components - for example, motors for autonomous vehicles and cameras for game consoles. The previous world record for assembling the cube was 0.305 seconds. It was set by a robot from the Japanese company Mitsubishi Electric Corporation. They created this robot from components of their own design.
In 10 milliseconds, the robot captures the faces with cameras and processes the images, then for 8 milliseconds it plans its actions, calculating the assembly sequence in the fewest number of moves. At the same time, the human record in speedcubing is 3.13 seconds.
