has started getting into OpenCV and digital control system projects. We’ve covered Rubik’s robots before, like this two-motor slow and steady design and this six-motor build that solves a cube in less than a second.Ĭontinue reading “Rubik’s Robot So Fast It Looks Like A Glitch In The Matrix” → Posted in Robots Hacks Tagged machine vision, optical encoder, pancake servo, playstation eye, Rubik, solver and think they can shave a few milliseconds here and there with tweaks, but even as it is, this is a great lesson in optimization and integration. They had a little trouble distinguishing the red from the orange, which was solved with a Sharpie. Machine vision is provided by just two PlayStation Eye cameras mounted at opposite corners of the enclosure, each camera can see three faces at a time.
came up with a unique board to synchronize the six motors and prevent collisions between faces. The motors had to be modified to allow the encoders to be attached to the rear, and custom motor controllers were fabricated. He and his collaborator put together a robot with a decidedly industrial look - aluminum extrusion chassis, six pancake servo motors with high-precision optical encoders, and polycarbonate panels for explosion containment which proved handy during development. It looked like about 20.īeating the previous robot record of 637 milliseconds is just the icing on the cake of a very cool build undertaken by. Blink during the video below and you’ll miss it - even on the high-speed we had trouble keeping track of the number of moves this solution took. This Rubik’s Cube solving robot not only looks fast, it is fast: it solved a standard cube in 380 milliseconds. From Ferraris to F-16s, some things just look fast.
