It’s by no means the first Rubik’s Cube solver we’ve seen<\/a>, but it’s definitely the first I’ve encountered that runs on phone. The ARM-packing Nokia N95 rests above the cube, scanning it with its camera as it solves. Double bonus points for working with a 4x4x4 Cube instead of the standard 3x3x3.<\/p>\n

According to one intrepid YouTube commenter, the trial above took 15 minutes and 109 moves, which is more than my personal best of “a few months” and “I lost track.” I just hope that when we’re all assigned a robot overlord, mine is as neat as this one. [Make<\/a> via Geekosystem<\/a>]<\/p>\n
