Introduction

Nautilus is a speedsolving method designed for ergonomics, efficiency, and automation. The first two steps of the method intuitively solve pieces in such a way that blind spots are minimized and look ahead is maximized. The final two steps are automated through the use of algorithms. Recognition is simple thanks to all pieces being in view.

Check out the notation below to see how turns and rotations are notated.

Rotations

Rotations are notated by specifying the two layers that should be moved to the upper layer and the front layer. The two layers are placed in curly braces. The first letter is the layer that will be moved to the upper layer and the second letter is the layer that will become the front layer. For example, {R, D} indicates that the R layer should be on the upper layer and the D layer should be on the front.
