Another short post on Automation - Solving Rubik's Cube | Eastern North Carolina Now

Logic is the strong suit of computers, but it can seem that they have more cognitive ability than they do.

    Logic is the strong suit of computers,it can seem that they have more cognitive ability than they do.

    This video shows how a computer robot solves the Rubik's Cube. It looks like magic at first but you must remember that a computer thinks in sequential fashion. It is just a bunch of this or that decisions. Some clown sent me a video link on this where one of the squares was replaced with a color not in the original mix.

    The robot could not solve the problem because there is no solution. For some reason, I cannot find the link to that video but I suspect that it was removed from YouTube by their automated algorithm robot who (yes I think it is a who and not a what) was obvious trying to protect the impression that computers can think.

    In any event, here is the solution. When the cube first came out, I was able to solve it eventually but was never able to duplicate that feat. I had no system but just random moves and by sheer luck hit the solution.

    I wish I could apply that same random luck to the lottery, but luck is luck. Of course I will be testing my luck this Wednesday January 13 for a prize of $1 Billion Plus $$$$$.

Robots solving Rubik's cube in less than two seconds. Add a few more cameras and a few step motors and you now have a robot that can solve Rubik's cube quicker than you can say Rubik's Cube.
