The RuBot II has to be the world’s fastest Rubik’s Cube solving robot, 23 seconds is very impressive considering that the Rubik’s Cube has a total of 43,252,003,274,489,856,000 permutations.
Before each attempt of Rubik’s Cube solving, the robot is calibrated, then the Cube is mixed up, and then the RuBot II scans one side of the cube, he is then able to solve it, you can see him in action in the video below.

Last week, we asked you if you would trust Panasonic’s new 16-fingered robot that you can see above and that’s supposedly able to wash the hair of a human being. If you were undecided about this question back then, we can help you now with two videos that appeared online just today.
What I find suspicious (or slightly disturbing) is that during this public demonstration of the robot, Panasonic didn’t let it wash the hair of a human being but that of a dummy.
Anyway, here’s the first video:
In this second video, you can see the robot shampooing/washing the dummy’s hair:
