WOW, that is amazing. I will be trying that tomorrow on my one. Thanks heaps for the designs and source codes. Nice to see a free firmware for it as well.
Very cool. It's slower but much simpler than other solvers.
Nice, very nice, Hans. At least there is model of Rubik's cube solver, ready to be constructed with 8547 NXT 2.0 parts. Good job, thank you!
I built one in bright colours for our annual show, the reactions were mostly shock and awe!
@dieterwuytens its just like a hack
the color sensor gives RGB (red-green-blue) outputs, but that way is impossible too.
so the robot converts RGB output to HSL (hue-saturation-light)
and its possible to detect orange because ORANGE has more "hue" than RED
just like that, i read about it on the link in description :D
I built this, but it didn’t work for ages. I started building it on Friday and finished it Saturday, but it wouldn’t work correctly. So I then spent the rest of Saturday and also Sunday figuring out what was wrong with it. It turned out to be a simple weight issue. When the tilter arm goes over the top of the cube, the bar on the underside of it pushes down on the cube to get it into the turntable correctly. But for some reason, there wasn’t enough weight pushing down on it to make it work correctly. So I attached the remaining tire and wheel rim to that axle that sticks out at the top, added an axle joiner on top of that, and then attached another axle of the same length to the top of the joiner and put two 40 tooth gears on it. That turned out to be the perfect amount of weight, and the machine hasn’t missed a beat since then. Hope this helps since there seems to be a lot of people struggling with this.
It really work !!!
This is amazing !
I build it and the arm did not really work, but then i chance it and build it again, i play it, and it works !!
Don't believe that people say that is don't work ...
IT REALLY WORK !!!
I built it and it works great! Though occasionally the cube gets stuck when it's being flipped and it ruins everything.
It is really nice. Can you make the 4x4x4 tiltedtwister?
wow. simply wow.
Proud that Lego is of danish heritage..
impressing´ to say the least..
Very cool
very cool
looks like a smart scorpion :)
@404anhhao Building the fastest rubik's cube solver in the world was not the purpose of this creation. It was designed around using the limited amount of parts that come with the 8547 Lego Mindstorms 2.0 set so that anyone wishing to make it wouldn't have to spend more than 280 dollars.
Awesome
Will you make a Sudoku Solver, too? (for NXT 2.0)
my friend has the same exact one!
please can you make tilted twister lego mindstorm 3.0
Yeah, that problem i had to.
The File is in .zip, you need to download a software to fix it.
Just google "WinRar" and download it, after that you install it and it's importent that you select ALL the files, you will see, just olso select.zip
Just try it!
@leonkinfatcho its in the link
is this easy to take apart or build something new, i want to know b4 i buy this
I build one too but most of the time it says'' can't resolve colours'' and wen it doesn't it solves it wrong or it throws the cube out or get stuck so it doesn't work real wel
@vizard4881 Mine thinks it calculates the solution but all it does is mess the cube up more. Do you know why? Where do the wires go?
how did you put the rxe program in the nxt cos when i open it says the lego mindstorms software says it encountered a problem plz answer
Which ports do i plug in the wires
Will you do a file extension compatible with the EV3 LEGO ?
You could try an alternative design for EV3 such as MindCub3r :)
woooow
Can we use a speed cube instead of the original rubik's cube?
my tilted twister cube spinner keeps on spinning but my arm isn't moving
i downloaded the program on my pc but i cant download it to my nxt....plzzz help..i saw the program thru notepad but the lego software cant open the file....plz reply!!
mine gets about 3 spaces away and then says that it is done. Is there anything that I am doing wrong
may I ask how do you use the Java application for this?
I can't put the platform on. There is a piece popping out! What can I do?
what instructions? theres just a description on the site
tiltedtwister.com/download.html
I built it but in the beginning when it scans the robot and flips the cube the cube doesnt flip! i think there is an issue with the arm but i can't figure out how can you help me??!!!??? :P
hi, i made it, it works, but my turntable doesnt really "work".
it turns, but when the arm turns the cube, the cube wont fall in good, it will be stuck on the edges of the turntable, can you help me with it please?
I just did it yesterday, the robot said game over but the Rubik's Cube was not yet solved. Any clue whats wrong?
I made this with my NXT 2.0 and it keeps getting jammed, how do I fix this?
My Tilted twister doesen't work so i have read the building instruksions to chek if I have made some mistakes but can't find any mistakes:-(
please please please give me please the link of programme!
can you put a download link please?
@WoWpWnEd11 slightly different rubik's cube maybe...
where i can down load this program?
sorry but i dont see the instructions on the website
whats a good begginer robot to make? someone please reply
is this a normal size rubix cube?
the programm that you givve is not work ! please give me one other!!
nvm bout my 1st comment, i solved it, but now when it goes solving my cube, and it says all the steps have been performed, my cube isnt solved yet, and it says "game over" how do i solve this problem?
There is a little problem on step 67.
Dude, The site ...
@soulivo WTF i built it myself and it works perfectly
I don't how i this must program please help me
sorry for my English
i waited 1 hour still didn't do anything but spin
For me it can't work i can't uderstand why can you help me,please ?
Nvm but the arm isn't grabbing the cube
Do you have real cube or copy?
If it's copy it doesn't work...
Ummmm........ I need one of these.
Did make it buy dont work the arm dont work :( but all the things works
ask the Death Eaters to help you bro, or i will spectro patronus your ass
COLON CAPITAL D
HOW!?!?!
***** Both the CubeStormer 1, 2 and 3 uses an external computer (a phone for 2 and 3) to figure out what to do faster, that's what makes this one amazing!
Have you seen MindCuber and MindCub3r? ;)
wer most de draden in
It says on the website. 1 - Color sensor
2 - Ultrasonic sensor
A - Turntable motor
B - Tilter arm motor
C - Color sensor motor
If you wan't a lego rubiks cube solver, built the "minecuber". Trust me.
5:D
i have rebiult and tested this robot at leat 10 times....never worked...ever
Kill me
It doesn't work. Trust me. The program is fine for me. but it's just the mechanics of the robot. It won't turn fully or flip fully. It really doesn't work. I spent the whole day on building the robot only to find out that it doesn't work. It was a waste of time for me. Even if you see people's robots working, it's a very low chance that yours will work.
which type of program u download?? thx
truely work!!
I haven't updated this. Yes. I have a real cube. A speed cube in fact. It does work. You have to colabrate the color censor which takes a long time too. The lighting has to be perfect too. And after calculations, you have to make sure the robot arm doesn't flip too high. So it works, it just will take a couple of tries and a lot of calabrating.
Tilted twister is a piece of shit!!!!!
This is all fake and do not try it. I built it and even when I put a solved cube i it said 22 turns. Do not try it!!!!!!!!!!!
Can you make a tutorial on how to install everything? I mean after you build the machine, how to install the nxt program and stuff please! Keep up the great work!
You are brilliant!
Worked for me :)
Thanks.
so cool!
just finished building that today
going to get rubiks cube tommarrow to do it
Fantastic
@TheStilalibero put the sensor as low as it goes, took me hours to fix
As well as falling out, the nxt also doesn't completely turn the cube, so then the next time it goes to turn the cube, it gets stuck and fails.
Thanks,
Evmanw
For some reason I built it but all that happens is the C motor spins continuously in a circle
READ
My dad helped me figure out why the one I built wasnt working and I fixed heres why on the claw where the hangy peice is I used blue you HAVE TO USE YELLOW on the platform USE THE ORANGE BENDER like it says and that kind of stuff.
Hope this helped ^.^
XD When the arm flips the cube its like *EEEEEEHHH* XD
The instructions are all on his web site, linked below the video :)
is this video demonstrating a solve using Herbert Kociemba's algorithm running on a computer rather than a completely stand-alone solve?
Have you connected all the motors as detailed in the instructions?
1st step: Rubik's solver
2nd step: Skynet
My cube is a Dayan Lunhui white and its not solving, do you know what can i do to make it works?
Is there still building instructions on the site?
That happened to me, but after a few days it worked properly.
@RSOURAV100 Unless You Are A Programmer, you have a problem. because it comes in code, not nxt code, just C code, so you have to compile it to robot C
I don't understand step 12, Where should i put the motor? Do you have an LDD Instruction?
is the ultrasonic sensor (robot head thingy) important? please answer.
No, it just senses if you put the cube in.
I have the robot built, and i downloaded the program but i can't figure out how to download it to the robot, will it work on my mac??? If so, how do I open it in the MINDSTORM NXT application to download it to the robot
i built it but the colour sensor doesnt go to the corners of the cube at all...only some colours at the edges and the centre colours..what can i do to correct...please someone reply...
Can this work with NXT 1.0 and the light sensor?
why does my color sensor first spin the other way? and the turntable is blocked by the color sensor.
Can someone please make a short clip showing how to put the files from the tiltedtwister.zip into the NXT?
I can't get the java download to work. It gets stuck on the bluetooth. I have the robot and the bluetooth in sync it is just not connecting.
You mean the flipper arm motor was not working?
