Rubot II, The Cubinator – The World’s Fastest Rubik’s Cube Solving Robot

Here’s a video I shot at World Maker Faire New York 2010 of Rubot II, The Cubinator by Mechatrons, the world’s fastest Rubik’s Cube solving robot. In this instance it was able to solve a scrambled Rubik’s Cube in 18.2 seconds.
