Mitsubishi Robot Sets Record By Solving Rubik’s Cube In 0.3 Seconds

Engineers at Mitsubishi Electric Corporation have created a robot capable of solving a Rubik’s Cube in an astonishing 0.305 seconds, setting a new Guinness World Record. This achievement, announced on May 23, highlights the robot’s extraordinary speed and the technological prowess of Mitsubishi’s motors.

Historically, solving a Rubik’s Cube has been a challenge for many, but it has also been a popular target for speed-solving competitions. The previous record for a robot was set in 2016 when the time first dipped below one second. Mitsubishi’s new record surpasses this by a significant margin, showcasing a leap in both speed and engineering.

The project was led by Tokui, who typically works on motor development at Mitsubishi; He leveraged the company’s advanced motors to build the robot, confident that they could outperform previous record holders. Tokui’s confidence was well-placed, as the robot managed to solve the puzzle on its second attempt, after an initial setback due to the Rubik’s Cube jamming.

Achieving this record required not only incredibly fast motors, but also a high-quality Rubik’s Cube that could withstand the rapid movements without breaking or jamming. The engineers’ meticulous attention to detail and their ability to fine-tune the timing by milliseconds were crucial to their success.

Tokui expressed his excitement and satisfaction with the project, emphasizing the fun and motivation throughout the process. He hopes this record will demonstrate the capabilities of Mitsubishi’s products and their potential to improve various applications.
