How to solve the Lateral Thinking puzzle in The Talos Principle 2

Lateral Thinking is one of the unique puzzles in The Talos Principle 2. You need to walk on a particular wall during this puzzle in order to solve it. You will be given various objects, such as Hexahedrons, connectors, etc, to assist you in solving Lateral Thinking.

You will find a connector when you arrive at the puzzle's location. You can use it to link the red laser conduits with the red panel beside the gate. The electric barrier will dissipate, and you can progress further.

Retrieve the Hexahedron and get back to the connector. You will see a pressure pad outside the gate. Place the Hexahedron on top of the pad, and you can safely remove the connector. Take the connector and start scaling the wall once again.

When you scale a little bit, right before the second electrical barrier, turn left, and you can find a platform where you can land. Stand there and look for a blue laser conduit. Connect that with the second barrier's blue laser panel and place the connector on the platform.
