  • There's always some retard proclaiming everything to be fake because they're too ignorant to understand what's going on.

    Awesome machine, it even looks great.

  • Cool

  • human - 6.24

  • @londonjimbob You mean 5.38. Is what Feliks Zemdegs got it 2011.

  • I wish I could make one of these

  • i remember when the lego's were just blocks

  • Think nerds are bad?

    Well look at this magnificent invention.

  • where i man buy it

    or

    what do i need to built it

  • send this to lego and let it become a lego minstorms set! :D

  • That's making me feel like a complete idiot record for me 43 seconds

  • Cool

    

  • SKYNET IS UPON US. RESIST. THEY ARE GOING TO THROW RUBIK'S CUBES AT US. D:

  • @SnakeEater54800 your comment made me go LOL

  • which language is the program written in? Is it possible to do in NXTG? 

  • which language is the program written in? Is it possible to do in NXTG?

  • why can't you let it inspect the cube and make the timer start on the first turn he makes? i think it is much faster than shown in the video!

  • As a programmer I'm extremely impressed that you went for the most move-efficient solve instead of trying to copy a human method. How does the algorithm work, in general terms?

  • Wow! So it just finds the only 20-move solution? That fast? That

    s way too fast to algorithims.

  • instruction plz dear god

  • this music remaind me an old good times ;)

  • @Pinnger lol! me too xD

  • the solve in 10 sec. were just 21 steps, so the cube isn't random or you discovered the method to solve the cube in around 20 steps. the machine is nice but the solving is fake!

  • @TheSmetsi no, the solve is genuine. If you read the description and do a little research you'll find that CubeStormer uses a great program that can find almost optimum solutions very quickly. CubeStormer II uses a different, but equally effective algorithm that can also consistently find solutions of about 20 moves! ;-)

  • @TheSmetsi Sorry, the cube was only 20 moves from solved, unfortunately it is impossible to scramble any further

  • @TheSmetsi If you knew what you were talking about, you would know that ANY permutation of a rubix cube cant be solved in 21 moves minimum. Don't start calling shit out as fake that you have no idea about, moron. Research, Analyse and comment: easy enough.

  • @TheSmetsi dumbshit

  • @TheSmetsi

    The solving could easily be possible using a tree solving method which would calculate the least number of moves nessisary to solve the cube. Since calculations per second on computers these days are so fast, it makes more sense to do it that way. My bet (guess) is you can solve any cube in 30 moves or less. No matter the scramble.

  • @madcatdotexe I think you might be underestimating the complexity of the task of finding the least number of moves. Have a look at cube20(dot)org to see the work that people have done over the last 30 years or so to determine that the worst case is 20 moves. I believe there are very few algorithms that have been developed that can find such short solutions in a reasonable time.

  • @TheSmetsi Every single possibility of the 43 quintillion ones in a rubik's cube (besides solved) can be solved in 20 moves or less. I remember watching a video and Google lended the use of their super computers to find that number.

  • 0_0'......

  • HOLY SHIT I thought it was impossible :O!

  • There's an Asian that can do it faster

  • @SKETCHNOTE maybe not if you spray silicone inside the cube before putting it in the machine

  • holy SHIT thats awsome

    

  • HOLY SHIT THATS AWSOME

  • 43 people thought this was simply too amazing to be real.

  • 43 people thought this was too amazing to be real.

  • The biggest lego mindstorms i have ever seen

  • OMG OMG OMG

  • I'm sure you guys are using AI techniques to solve this problem. I'm studying AI now and would like to take a look in your software or at least know which methods did you use in the algorithm.

  • amazing, i would love to see the algorithm for that.

  • @Redraptorxx i too. i want now name of it

  • @Redraptorxx i too. i want name of it

    

  • I want to pick it up and throw it on the floor

  • Now can you make one that will play EVE Online for me when I am at work, level up my wow character whilst doing all my ironing and picking the winning lotto numbers and tiling my kitchen. Then I will be impressed, so until then I will just carry on removing all the coloured stickers and putting them back on again.

  • There's another Cube Stormer, and it solves cubes even faster. Although this cubestormer is aesthetically better...

  • @alchemistEXE2 You mean CubeStormer II which is the successor to this

  • @alchemistEXE2 Thanks, I think when you see the whole machine you may change your mind however, I put more time into the asthetical apearance of CSII than i did for CS1, l hope to release another video of CubeStormer II on my channel sometime soon.

  • OMIGAWD *passes out for 3 days*

  • I thought I was unbeatable, know I know I'm not

  • HAve you tried doing the same desing only with a 4 sided cub?

  • @Brandson1000 I have tried to focus on the standard 3x3x3 cube, mechanically it could solve a 2x2x2 with a change of software, a very good friend of mine has devised a single machine which can solve all kinds of different cubes...check out "IAssemble" 's channel here on YouTube!

  • @RoboticSolutions I met this guy (David) today at an engineering festival in cambridge :) I'm building my own Rubik's cube solver for an AS Technology project and had a chat about it with him whilst he was displaying multicuber and the yellow android 3x3x3 solver. He mentioned that you worked on CSII together and used his algorithm to solve it instead of Cube Explorer (which i am using for my project)

  • and who ever said legos are for the little ones

  • who needs people when uve got lego

  • COOL

  • My lego rubics cube solver can solve a 1 by 1 rubics cube in 0 seconds

  • WTF

    

  • Nice work! My personal record still is 1:07. But I broke the cube.

    Just finished my sudoku-solver in Excel. Still needs an input/output "robot" for the real paperwork, but it does the solve. I'm impressed about the programming you had to do for this cubesolver. Many lines I guess

  • This reminds me of LHC :o)

  • How much is this

  • Since the robot can't see, does this count as a blind solve, and mean he beat the current WR, by about 20 seconds?

  • @aaroncubing probably, yes, also the fastest cube scanning robot, producing a full solution in under 2 seconds!

  • i need 1 to slove my rubik cube!!!!!!!!!!

  • I can't even program a proper stair climber.

  • AWESOME!!!!

  • transformer

  • What's the average solve time? And what's the average number of moves it finds? And why not use 15 seconds of scan time and solution finding to find an optimal time, and NOT count this towards the total time to solve? I.e. why not follow WCA regulations?

  • @JDoucette Approx 10sec for 20 moves , which includes scan time and processing time as "Robots" are treated differently.... (dont ask me why !)

  • @RoboticSolutions Thanks for replying. I actually knew that as your video shows under 11 seconds for a seemingly 20 move solve. But I'm curious as to the solve time in WCA rules. Give 15 seconds to scan, and then what's the average? All cubes have 20 move solutions, but even using CubeExplorer, you need a wealth of processing power to find it, so I'm guessing longer move solutions are normally found. In any case, interested in knowing how it'd fare in a real WCA tournament. Average 3 of 5? :)

  • @RoboticSolutions P.S. Amazing piece of hardware and software, that goes without saying. Impressed!!

  • Behold the power of java...

  • How many RCX's and motors does it have? this video is another reason why RCX owns NXT so badly.

  • how many RCX's and motors does it have? this video is another reason why RCX pwns NXT so badly.

  • how many RCX's and motors does it have? this video is another reason why RCX pwns NXT so badly.

  • The way I see it, this video demonstrates the capabilities of humans. Great vid

  • Cubes fear The Cubestormer

  • awesome 

  • of course the fastest is an rcx... it totally beats nxt

  • The computer had this solved almost instantly after it fully analyzed the cube... it was just slowed down by the motors! This is really a 0.00001 second solve!

  • WOOOOOOOOOOOW!!, can you tell me please, where i can download this video, this will be very helpful, thanks very much!!!!!!!!

  • looks like some thing that would destroy the world

  • The Robots Are Taking Over!!

  • Thank goodness, now we don't have to spend all that time solving it ourselves!

  • i think you should put it in a public place and have millions of people pay money to have their rubiks cubes fixed

  • Like a boss!

  • what software do you use?

  • @Sonicpod0 The Motors/ RCXs in CubeStormer are not altered. The power it produces is through multiple motors and optimum gearing to suit the task. Bear in mind the NXT and the RCX have a very similar output power availability, it is "unlikely" that the NXT would offer any advantage in this application.

  • Feliks Zemdegs beat it OH

  • This is unbeliveable...where can we learn more? Isn't there a paper on this or the code or something I can see!?

  • @MrJosiahT Take a look at "CubeExplorer" written by Herbert Kociemba. It is the solve engine which most robotic cube solvers use.

  • @RoboticSolutions How did the cube recognize the colors?

  • @MrJosiahT Colour recognition is provided by "Cube Explorer" using the LEGO webcam to capture an image of each face as it passes during the scan routine.

  • @RoboticSolutions "most"? Well maybe most of the 3x3x3 solvers ;-)

  • Feliks zemdegs is faster...

  • FORMIDABLE ROBOT !

  • Looks like the future.

  • 43 people were sent back in time to stop Skynet. If they succeed, Terminators will be built from Lego instead.

  • 43 speed cube people r jelous of the machine :P

  • Incredible! What did you program it with?

  • @Muffinmixable Thankyou, CubeStormer's RCX units are programmed using NQC.

  • @RoboticSolutions Hey I'm 15 and we're doing a project in school, and my idea was to programm a LEGO Mindstorms.. It's really, really impressive what you did here, great job!

    My question is: was it hard to programm/build this roboter? Because i wanna do a project what is going to impress de people... I hope u read it and answer, it's really important! THX! ^^

  • cube trainer!:D

  • i don't need this all i need is Yu Nakajima to do it for me :)

  • WOW, not only do I now not feel bad for all the money I wanted to spend on robolego things, but instead I feel like I wasn't aiming high enough. Thats freaking amazing, brilliant and awesome. I'm 31 years old, I'm going out now to buy legos and I don't care who knows it anymore. :P

  • Hi, I don't know if you've considered/tested this already, in the cube inspection phase, he turns 3 then switches then turns another 3. But it's possible to scan in just 5 turns with 2 switches. (2/s/1/s/2) have you tested this to see if it's faster?

  • @MrChinleungyau Correct! The additional grip open/close timing outweighs the extra "flash past" of the additional face.

  • nice lights/ decorations

  • omfg amazin.......

  • Wow... That's frigging unbelievable! True craftsmanship right there.

  • 4.04 sec. OMG OMG OMG THAT IS AWESOME!!!

  • What does the whole cube stormer cost?

  • @TheMovinglego The parts in Cubestormer are no longer sold. would probably cost around £800 (sterling) to source the parts second hand.

  • Is that using the mindstorms brick or the computer in the background?

  • @gwhizkids The solve is done on the Netbook, the LEGO robot receives instructions from the netbook and carries out the moves as required.

  • wooow

  • mazin

  • Not only blazingly fast but also looks like a warp gate. Pure win!

  • And so begins the birth of the Cylons.

  • can it solve other rubicks cubes?

  • @georgetroulis Unfortunately, no, it has been designed for the 3x3x3, Have you seen "MultiCuber" by "IAssemble" like it's creator, it's really clever!

  • hey can this thing solve the superflip???

  • @emoman7777 sure, although being one of the combinations that requires a minimum of 20 moves, the software manages to find a 21 move solution in a fraction of a second.

  • I would be interested in a picture of the arms, like how they grab nicely and more. also, what electronic parts does the robot uses? somone said 24 motors...?

  • o.o

  • EPICNESS

  • one day robots take over the world...

  • robots >humans?

  • @uut0 No sir. Feliks Zemdegs.

  • @crazymexicandope lol who?

  • @uut0 Youtube search him!

  • @crazymexicandope internet to the rescue! he can solve 2 5x5s in the time i solve a 3x3 O_o

  • hey whats the song?

  • @michael1234252 "RKM" (Rubik Kubik Musik) was recorded for this video by "OscarWorld"

  • @RoboticSolutions

    Because using a song from somewhere else simply wouldn't be awesome enough? ;-D

  • If i saw this thing when i was 8 years old, I would have had my first orgasm.

  • Theres a new robot that solves em with only 1 arm check in in newscientistvideo

  • SUDDENLY........Skynet

  • @TheSithOverlord666 made of legos ................time traveling lego cyborgs

  • woooow

  • that is just freakin awesome!

  • i have the like the same computer

  • \This one takes so many months :D

  • how much does it cost ??

  • So cool XD

  • Dear RuBot... You have been beaten for your record time of approx. 15 seconds by a biulding toy. merry christmas. (You have toooo much attention, and you use preumatics, too loud. This machine is smaller, faster, and brilliant. Oh, and costs less to make!)

  • Wow I want this to scramble my cubes faster...

  • @EMI94100 kinky 

  • I understand how the parts Cubestormer is made with, electronic parts at least, are no longer manufactured, but are there newer versions of said parts that would serve the same purpose? In other words, could Cubestormer (or something very similar) be built today using modern bits?

  • @ShokaLion The newer NXT parts are very different to the older RCX type that Cubestomer uses, the result is likely to be VERY different...have you seen "YellowCube Machine"? ..that uses the NXT to very good effect. It was produced by a very good friend of mine :-)

  • You honestly have to make instructions on how to make that, I am sure people would find a way to use new LEGO parts to achieve something even more insane!

  • Awsome

  • can u make it go like REALLY fast?

  • That's an awesome machine!!

    And yes, God's number is 20 :).

  • now all it needs is fingers on those arms lawl

  • if you want it to win, teach it finger tricks

  • interesting ; with better acctuators and finer tollerances your speed could be greatly eccelerated easily beating any human.

  • 39 People lost there rubix cubes

  • can you make a vieo on how to make that?

  • lego^^

  • It's sexy, too! (Y)

  • could you upload some close-up pictures of the robot? would be really interesting to see.

  • @Boxarez I'll see what I can do!

  • Cubestormer is really a lavish one off unit! it has 24 motors and 4 controllers which are no longer manufactured. It is therefore unlikely to be worth the effort it would take to produce any plans for it.

  • is there any chance that you will maybe release the plans for your solver? :D I wana build one

  • You have inspired me! This is going into my favourites!

  • O_O Holy jizz...

  • 4.04

    solve not found.

  • @ssbmfan4 You appear to be trying to solve a Rubik's cube. Would you like help?

  • @daemonpoet

    I can solve a Rubik's cube in 30 seconds. The joke is 404 is an HTML error when a requested page can't be found. The robot solved in 4.04 seconds; therefore solve not found.

  • @ssbmfan4 Yea, I know, but I couldn't resist the Clippy reference for some reason.

  • @daemonpoet Guess I am the one who didn't get the joke :D

  • @ssbmfan4 It's ok, your mind probably glossed over that painful memory.

  • Your my hero.

  • 4 arms 10 sec? thats low Erik Akkersdijk 2 arms Dutch 7,08 sec

  • @Ansgarragentor Count the time he inspects the cube before the solve! ^^

  • Congrats to the developers,és persze Rubik Ernőnek!

  • @Ansgarragentor 10 posable fingers, vs 8 monomotion fingers.

  • tats freaking amazing!!!!!
