Swedish Hacker Builds Sudoku-Solving Lego Robot

[WolfLordAndy]

Time to start using it on the newspapers for the daily prize.

Wow. This guy has way too much time on his hands. But, to give him credit...IT WORKS! Very cool.

 

[Cowabungaa]

That is slow...

And still faster than I would be. Gods I hate Sudoku, but then again I deteste numbers, they make me sad.

Still an awesome job, he must've been really bored to make that.

This guy builds problem-solving Lego robots when he's bored. When I'm bored I waste more life on the Internets.

Swedish guy: 1 - Canadian guy (me): 0

That is slow...But so cool. Seems like a waste of time to build, but It's certainly fun to watch.

You have never played with legos have you?

'course I have. But I would make some other awesome stuff. I don't see the point of making a sudoku solving robot, when you could make castles and have them get sieged and whatnot.

Build Sudoko solving robots TO siege castles.

 

[Cheesezorz]

Uhh...

Wot?

 

[Treefingers]

Holy shit, somebody shut down Skynet!!

It sieges castles to get to the sudoku puzzles inside? That would be cool.

Realizing Sudoku is incredibly boring

I love Sudoku
Seriously though, is there anything Lego can't do?

I like Sudoku...

I like Sudoku too...

 

[mikecoulter]

Really cool, but reeeaalllyyy slow...

 

[wordsmith]

I'm guessing the whole "hacking" scene was quiet that day?

 

[Captain Blackout]

Whatever you do, don't give that little guy the centuries it would take for him to scan in the world, cause then he'll quickly work on solving the Earth's problem with humanity. And we all know the pen is mightier than the sword. We're doomed.

So what you're saying is all I need is the Swedish programmer or at least the algorithm he used (which I've got a good chance of deriving on my own), some really durable Legos, a recharging power source (solar panel, maybe), and the worlds densest yet easiest to use ink and all my dreams can finally come true?

 

[LeonLethality]

That's awesome.
I want one.

imagine the perks actually being able to solve a sudoku puzzle!

 

[Macgyvercas]

I like doing Sudokus. This is an impressive feat, no doubt, but I like doing the puzzles on my own.

 

[dietpeachsnapple]

Soon our droid army will rise up and solve all the worlds sudoku puzzles then what will you do for 5 hours on a plane WHAT WILL YOU DO THEN AHAHAHA

You have discovered our evil plan! Your sudoku shall die first!

 

[similar.squirrel]

You could use this thing for all sort of crazy shenanigans.
Picture this, if you will: Your friend, an aficionado of Sudoko, takes a toiler-break, only to come back and find that his entire page of puzzles has been cunningly solved.
The capacity for causing human suffering here is great.

Sudoku is the cancer that is killing the puzzle industry. support your local cruciverbalist!

*Throws a math textbook at the robot.*

Homework. Get it done. By tomorrow!
