Vincent Sheu has been an active speedcuber since 2006. [8] He typically uses the CFOP method, a layer-by-layer system popularized by Jessica Fridrich in 1997. [9] In 2011, Sheu tied the existing world record for a 2x2x2 single solve with a time of 0.96 seconds at the Berkeley Winter Cube Competition. [10]
The cube restricted to only 6 edges, not looking at the corners nor at the other edges. The cube restricted to the other 6 edges. Clearly the number of moves required to solve any of these subproblems is a lower bound for the number of moves needed to solve the entire cube. Given a random cube C, it is solved as iterative deepening. First all ...
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.
Minh Thai (born 1965 as Thái Minh) is a Vietnamese-American speedcuber.As a sixteen-year-old Eagle Rock High School student from Los Angeles, he won the first world championship on June 5, 1982 in Budapest by solving a Rubik's Cube in 22.95 seconds. [1]
The Simple Solution to Rubik's Cube by James G. Nourse is a book that was published in 1981. The book explains how to solve the Rubik's Cube. The book became the best-selling book of 1981, selling 6,680,000 copies that year. It was the fastest-selling title in the 36-year history of Bantam Books.
Tyson Mao (born May 8, 1984) is an American Rubik's Cube speedsolver. He is a co-founder and a former board member of the World Cube Association, an organization that holds competitive events for the Rubik's Cube. In 2005, he set the world record for 3x3x3 blindfolded. [1]
Feliks Aleksanders Zemdegs [1] (/ ˈ f ɛ l ɪ k s ˈ z ɛ m d ɛ ɡ z /, Latvian: Fēlikss Zemdegs; born 20 December 1995) is an Australian Rubik's Cube speedsolver.He is one of only two speedcubers ever to win the World Cube Association World Championship twice (the other being Max Park), winning in 2013 and 2015, and is widely considered the most successful and greatest speedcuber of all time.
The Petrus System was designed as an alternative to the popular layer-based solutions of the early 1980s using 2v2v2 blocks. [10] [1] Petrus reasoned that as a solver constructs layers, further organization of the cube's remaining pieces is restricted by what one has already done.
