Rubik's Touchcube

[JCT1335]

ok yea i was just making a joke

Are there any specific rules that would completely make this illegal to use during competitions? Sure, I doubt it'd be very handy to use during speedsolve, but it might be a little fun to use it for FMC.

I think it could be perfect for BLD. The only thing missing is an internal timer that begins when the scramble is displayed, then it captures the split time when you toggle off the lights, and finally gives completed time when you solve it (and lights pop on with a congratulatory "TA DA!" sound). It might take practice to "twist" it quickly. It would be nice to have audible feedback or touch feedback for the twists when doing BLD.

There is audible feedback when you make a turn.

With loud music or noise in the background, a short vibration (tactile click) would be nice. Maybe a person could feel the vibration of the audible feedback that you mention.

like the tocco ultra that vibrates a tiny bit when you touch the screen to show you it has registered

I'll probably gget one eventually too add to the ever growing collection but it's probably gonna end up just sitting on the shelf for a rainy day

 

[SlapShot]

I like it. But, I have hopes that the price may come down a bit at a later date.

 

[Nukoca]

Ah... I knew this would come up sometime. I knew about this months ago.

but it might be a little fun to use it for FMC.

I doubt it because it would be really annoying to rescramble.

i think it scrambles itself, you just press a button or something

And getting a different scramble for FMC would be good because..?

this is going to be so cool i hope they come out with more touchcubes beacuse this touchcube is not going to be that fast

Are you being sarcastic? How could they make it faster?

Make it so you can turn layers other than the top layer.

 

[xXdaveXsuperstarXx]

What about double layer turns?

I'm pretty sure you can already.

How do you turn it? Does it come lubricated?

Do the center caps come off?
What screwdriver do you need to adjust the tension?
What is it lubed with?
How often does it pop?
TELL ME!!!
