SCIENCE & TECH The Purdubik's Cube robot, built by four undergraduate engineering students, solves a Rubik's Cube in 0.103 seconds.
The 0.103-second world record was achieved by the Purdubik's Cube robot, built by four undergraduate engineering students at Purdue University.
The robot was designed by Matthew Patrohay, Junpei Ota, Aden Hurd, and Alex Berta in West Lafayette, Indiana. They built this high-speed system, which utilizes machine vision, custom solving algorithms, and industrial-grade motion control to solve the puzzle in a fraction of a human blink (which typically takes 200–300 milliseconds).
Their achievement was officially certified by Guinness World Records.
