Cubebot (small) – $24.95
Forget CGI! David Weeks created the Cubebot, a wonderful wooden "transforming" puzzle out of cherry wood. The cube you see on the right "unfolds" into the posable robot.
The trick – and fun – is to fold him back into the cube. Challenge your puzzle-minded loved ones to fold the Cubebot back into the cube (without instructions, of course). It’s not as easy as it looks … Link | More Cubicle Toys from the NeatoShop
Lithuanian twelfth grader Andrius Šutas built his own robot for Rubik’s cube solving and does not hesitate to share secrets of the build (i. e. schematics, CAD design, source code). It’s not very fast, but does the job pretty well and the simplicity of the design looks good. The solving algorithm in question is layer-by-layer (same as an average Human would use).
