Introduction

This is a tool to generate all the unique color schemes for the stickerless cubes using the standard colors (white, red, green, orange, blue, yellow).

Most of the common stickerless cubes have corners and edges which can be taken apart and reassembled in different ways to produce another color scheme.

The output of this tool are images which shows how the edges and corners can be reassambled and the resulted checkerboard patterns.

The id of the scheme is the order: up, down, front, back, left, right.

Example:

The standard blue-orange-yellow scheme:
dBOY

The same scheme displayed in a simplified form:
sBOY

In the simplified form the edges are represented by the intersection of two colors while the corners are represented by the intersection of three colors.

The checkerboard-only images are also generated: cBOY

The flat (unfolded) images are also generated: fBOY

Another example with real photo

The "WOYBGR" scheme: d30R1

The WOYBGR scheme construction with a Meilong 3x3 cube: d30R1

The checkerboard pattern of the same (WOYBGR) scheme: d30R1

The simplified form of the WOYGBR scheme:

d30R1

The simplified form gives enough information about the relationships between faces' colors and about the colors of the pieces.

The output:

The resulting images are available by clicking the image below:
BOY

A summary of checkerboard images (which ignores the mirror schemes) can be also generate: checkerboard_summary
