Faster than blink of eye: Purdue robot crushes Rubik’s cube world record in 0.103 seconds

by

NEW: Purdue students demolish the Guinness World Record for fastest Rubik’s cube-solving robot, solving the puzzle cube in just 0.103 seconds, faster than the blink of an eye.

Insane.

The previous record was set by Mitsubishi Electric engineers in 2024 in Japan with a speed of 0.305 seconds.

The team says they can probably go even faster, but the cube is the holdup, considering it will “disintegrate” if they go faster.

They say they had to reconstruct the cube with stronger pieces so it could handle the machine.
