For us, we thought that solving a Rubik’s Cube seemed like a reasonable challenge that could be done with an FPGA. At first, we didn’t think this project would be too hard of a challenge, other than learning how to solve a Rubik’s Cube. After some research online, we were able to find other people who have attempted the same project, and they were nice enough to make their own reports and code available for public viewing. Many of our ideas came from what we were able to find online: using servo motors to drive claws which would hold and rotate the cube and its faces, and the number of claws we decided to implement in our design.
