RuBot II - The Rubik's cube solving robot. Read this before you comment! This is 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 about 35 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. Thanks to all of those who think it is too good to be true. That is a real compliment! If you still don't believe it, Look at the other RuBot videos - they have better scrambles. Or better still, call in on one of RuBot's live demonstrations. By the way, that's my daughter in the clip with RuBot. Tags:[robot][Rubik's][cube] |

Puppy Vs. Robot! Epic Battle For Territorial Domination! This is the robot: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000OF50M4?ie=UTF8&tag=demonbaby-20&linkCode=xm2&camp=1789&creativeASIN=B000OF50M4 When I brought home a Roboquad robot the other day and started playing with it, our resident guardian K9 was none too pleased. I decided to put Roboquad in "autonomous" mode, set his aggression level to high, and let the battle unfold. From http://www.demonbaby.com Note: The robot is acting fully on its own, I was not controlling it in any way.
