Augmented Reality Rubik's Cube Solver

Introduction: The Rubik’s cube is a puzzle with a clear goal and with many techniques of achieving this goal. This puzzle can be solved by following a series of steps that are used to solve any permutation of the cube. For someone who does not know how to solve a Rubik’s cube, trying to stay on the right track can be frustrating. With this project, we hope to help these people stay on the right track by providing them with real time instructions to solve the cube using augmented reality.
