Our task was to build and program a traditional 3x3 Rubik's Cube that can solve itself after being scrambled. Inside of the prototype here, there are a set of motors and electrical controllers that follow a complex algorithm on a computer to return all of the faces of the cube to their original configuration. No matter how much you try to mix it up, our Rubik's Cube will fix itself! This model has an electrical brain inside, and slides along a sphere internal to its own shape rather than a guide frame built into it. Power and controls are all fit into the cube, so it might feel a little heavy compared to what you are used to!
