In plain words
BricKuber is an open-source Rubik's cube solving robot built using a Raspberry Pi, BrickPi kit, and standard LEGO Mindstorms components. Designed for hobbyists and makers, it prioritizes simplicity over speed, making it accessible to builders with basic hardware. The project includes Python source code available on Github and allows users to assemble and program their own cube-solving robot without requiring specialized robotics expertise.

From the sources
The BricKuber is an open source Rubik’s cube solving robot you can build yourself. NOTE: This project depends on outside libraries that require updates. We wanted to build a Rubiks cube solving robot with the Raspberry Pi. Rather than go for speed, we went with simplicity: if you have a Raspberry Pi, a BrickPi kit, and a standard LEGO Mindstorms EV3 or NXT Kit, you should be able to easily follow in our footsteps. The software is written in the Python programming language. You can see all the source-code on Github here . The Rubik’s cube has recently begun making a comeback. Invented in 1974, it is the world’s best-selling toy. But solving them takes thought, effort, and skill . . .…from dexterindustries.com
