RUBOT II --- The Rubick's Cube Solving Robot

Here's the new version of RUBOT by PETE REDMOND from Dublin, Ireland. It's very different to the prototype but it has to be the coolest looking robot solver ever.

There are cameras in the eyes of the head that scan the cube before the pneumatic arms solve it. It usually solves the Cube in a max of about 50 seconds (not including the scan) no matter how much it is mixed up.

The solving algorithm is taken care of by HERBERT KOCIEMBA'S CUBE EXPLORER SOFTWARE and usually solves the cube in a maximum of about 20 moves.

In this video, the cube wasn't mixed up too hard so RuBot was able to find the optimum solution.
