Pete Redmond has stated that although the robot was built for entertainment, the science behind it can be practically useful. The technology that helps the RuBot to see can also be used in other robots in places where it might not be safe to send people, like nuclear disaster zones, where a robot can be sent in to see and make independent decisions.[5] There are numerous YouTube videos of Rubot working on Rubik's Cubes, and its makers have given him some 'human' qualities, such as conversation to make these more entertaining.[6] {{Rquote|right|The RuBot 2 is not the first Rubik's Cube solving robot, but it has to be the coolest looking - and I truly believe it to be the fastest robotic Cube solver ever.|Pete Redmond[6]}}WorkingThe robot can easily pick up and solve the Rubik's Cube puzzle game in an interactive way. In a typical run, the robot is given a Rubik's Cube scrambled by a human. It then grabs the cube and hoists it up to eye camera level, where it scans and records the configurations on all faces of the cube.[7] The input configurations read by RuBot's cameras are run through Kociemba’s 2 phase algorithm to find a solution with less than 20 moves, the computation normally taking less than one second,[8] and then works with it using its pneumatic arms. It can solve any Rubik's Cube in less than 50 seconds, and has managed it in a record time of 21 seconds. The robot has been nicknamed "The Cubinator".[5] CreatorPete Redmond is from Dublin, Ireland. He has worked as an avioincs engineer for the Irish Air Corps. Pete has degrees in Computer Science and a master's degree in Engineering.[8] His other notable works include Diotoir and Nemesis from the TV show Robot Wars and a combustion engine powered sprinting robot called Ulysses that set a world record on a BBC TV show called Technogames.[9] References1. ^{{cite web |first=Bill |last=Christensen |title= RuBot II Robot Solves Rubik's Cube With Gusto |url=http://www.technovelgy.com/ct/Science-Fiction-News.asp?NewsNum=764 |work=Technovelgy |date=12 October 2006 |accessdate=12 July 2018}} 2. ^{{cite news|title=Tech Know: Meeting the makers|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/8586675.stm|author=Mark Ward|date=25 March 2010|newspaper=BBC News}} 3. ^Guinness Book of World Records 2010, Guinness World Records, 2010, page 154 on the UK edition 4. ^{{cite web|last=Grubb|first=Ben|title=Meet Ruby, the record-breaking robot that solves Rubik's Cube|url=http://www.smh.com.au/technology/sci-tech/meet-ruby-the-recordbreaking-robot-that-solves-rubiks-cube-20110601-1fgbc.html|work=The Sydney Morning Herald|publisher=Fairfax Media|accessdate=25 May 2012|date=2 June 2011}} 5. ^1 {{cite news|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/cbbcnews/hi/newsid_7220000/newsid_7220300/7220346.stm|title=Robot cracks famous puzzle|date=January 31, 2008|newspaper=BBC News}} 6. ^1 {{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-X1-qgzGJs|title=Man Vs Machine (RuBot II)}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.livescience.com/technology/061011_robot_rubic.html|title=Robot Grabs and Solves Rubik's Cube|author=Bill Christensen|publisher=Live Science|date=11 October 2006}} 8. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.mechatrons.com/rubot/|title=Mechatrons|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20100510123850/http://www.mechatrons.com/rubot/|archivedate=2010-05-10|df=}} (Official site) 9. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QW3y_YIrdUE|title=Technogames Sprint Final}} (Youtube) External links
