Challenge: Rubik's Cube Solver

Former Member
Former Member over 12 years ago

I'd like to see Ben build a compact machine that can solve a Rubik's Cube.  Mostly so when you just get tired of looking at that unfinished cube, you can stick it in the machine to reset it.  Something as compact as possible would be nice, but it might be best if you can see the machine solving the puzzle instead of a black box that spits out a solved cube.

    These have already been built many times, check out YouTubes!

     

    People have even done it with Lego mindstorm kits.

    Actually those Lego ones were what gave me the idea for the post.

     

    I was thinking more Ben less Lego.  I have this image in my head of laser cut pieces and an Arduino or Rasberry Pi brain.

     

    Anyway, it was a show idea that was tickling my mind and I needed something for my first post on the board.

     

    BTW, my 7 year old daughter and my 5 year old boy love watching your show with me.  Thanks for the good times!
