As the world becomes more technologically focused engineers remain remarkably human when thinking of new use cases for their inventions, use cases that connect to the human spirit...
It seems that the Rubiks Cube is an essential stage of childhood fun but it also presents an opportunity to compete. This is where robotic engineers step in to battle each other because lets be honest, chess is just a bit too dry for some...
Robots have once again shown their superiority to humans, this time by solving a Rubik's Cube in less than half a second. The new build, created by software developer Jared Di Carlo and MIT Biometrics Lab Master’s student Ben Katz, can solve a 3X3 square Rubik’s Cube in just .38 seconds.
This is pretty insane, that it can complete the rubiks in under half a second! I mean what more could you want from your robot. Hey robot, go solve my rubiks for me!
It is important to note that Humans have steadily increased their Rubik’s cube solving speed over the past few decades. Sadly, they are nowhere near the ability to match the speed of a capable robot! Here's another fact for the old noggin, when it comes to the current human world record holder, SeungBeom Cho, he was able to solve the cube in a breackneck time of 4.59 seconds. This new robot discussed has him beat by 4 seconds!
Get a look at this record setting robot here:
What do you guys think of this news? Is it interesting or do you think engineers should be working on better use cases that actually may have some benefit to humanity?

That Is exceptionally Brilliant... It's no doubt technology is getting on the rise every passing day
