The 'robot' that solved the rubik'sCube in a new unofficial world record.
When was the last time one solved the Rubik’s cube faster than ever recorded?
Here, American Lucas Etter holds the North American Record Average for solving the tricky 3D cube puzzle fast and surprised!
Then posted online saying that “Really awesome solve! Done at River Hill Fall 2015 in Clarksville, Maryland. Lucas Etter – 7.13 3×3 Official North American Record Average!
But will another guy could step up to challenger Lucas?
Yes, there is another one, but not a guy! Jay Flatland and his friend Paul built a robot that can solve the puzzle much faster and much quicker, though. In a record of 1.196 seconds. The duo is looking forward to have the achievement certified as world record.
Rubik’s Cube is a 3-D combination puzzle invented in 1974 by Hungarian sculptor and professor of architecture Ernő Rubik. Originally called the Magic Cube, the puzzle was licensed by Rubik to be sold by Ideal Toy Corp. in 1980 via businessman Tibor Laczi and Seven Towns founder Tom Kremer, and won the German Game of the Year special award for Best Puzzle that year.
