The Professor's Cube (also known as the 5×5×5 Rubik's Cube and many other names, depending on manufacturer) is a 5×5×5 version of the original Rubik's Cube. It has qualities in common with both the 3×3×3 Rubik's Cube and the 4×4×4 Rubik's Revenge , and solution strategies for both can be applied.
Frank Morris (born August 25, 1981 in Boise, Idaho) is an American competitive speedcuber.. He is best known as the 2005 World Champion for solving the Professor's Cube.He is also known for having held World Cube Association recognized world records for both the Rubik's 4×4×4 cube single solve time, as well as the Rubik's 5×5×5 cube single solve time and average time.
Chris holds the former world record for the blindfolded solve time of the Rubik's Professor's Cube with 15 minutes 22 seconds. Hardwick has made a number of television appearances demonstrating the Rubik's Cube , including MTV in 2002, Canada AM and Much Music in the fall of 2003, discussing the 2003 Rubik's Cube World Championships.
In 2013, at the World Rubik's Cube Championship in Las Vegas, NV, Hays placed first in the 5x5, 6x6, and 7x7 events, becoming the first person to win all three events at one world championship. [9] At the 2015 World Championship in Sao Paulo, Brazil , he defended his 6x6 and 7x7 titles, and placed second in the 5x5 event behind Feliks Zemdegs ...
Solution is much the same as 3×3×3 cube except additional (and relatively simple) algorithm(s) are required to unscramble the centre pieces and edges and additional parity not seen on the 3x3x3 Rubik's Cube. Commercial name: Professor's Cube Geometric shape: Cube Piece configuration: 5×5×5
Non-human solving: The fastest non-human Rubik's Cube solve was performed by Rubik's Contraption, a robot made by Ben Katz and Jared Di Carlo. A YouTube video shows a 0.38-second solving time using a Nucleo with the min2phase algorithm. [98] Highest order physical n×n×n cube solving: Jeremy Smith solved a 21x21x21 in 95 minutes and 55.52 seconds.
The original Rubik's cube was a mechanical 3×3×3 cube puzzle invented in 1974 by the Hungarian sculptor and professor of architecture Ernő Rubik.Extensions of the Rubik's cube have been around for a long time and come in both hardware and software forms.
The following are the current official speedcubing world records approved by the WCA. [4]Note: For averages of 5 solves, the best time and the worst time are dropped, and the mean of the remaining 3 solves is taken.
