Cubesolver, a Lego robot for Rubik's Cube

A Lego robot that solves Rubik's cube from JP Brown.

I am proud to have in my personal collection a set of books from the 1980s detailing the mathematical basis of the Rubik's Cube, with the most scholarly being David Singmaster's "Notes on Rubik's Magic Cube". This is accompanied by a collection of Rubik's Cubes, Rubik's Revenge, and other twisty puzzles. They deserve a proper display case; it's the collection that Dr. Tom Storer from the U of Michigan Math Department accumulated during his tenure there.

Thanks to Linda Bangert for putting me in touch with Tom.
