Zachary Davidson, 18, carefully chose several Rubik's Cube variants from his huge collection to include in his senior photo.

This paper proposes a lossless encryption–compression algorithm for large-scale remote sensing images. Firstly, the red, green and blue components of color image are compressed by a lossless ...

Much like a Rubik's Cube, its sides rotate, unleashing all manner of chaos in the blink of an eye. At its core lies an equation that can save all of humanity or, if solved incorrectly, destroy it.

With colors identified, the robot had to know what to do. Here, the team turned to an existing cube-solving algorithm built for machines, Rob-Twophase, created by Elias Frantar.
