About: Gear Cube

An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Gear Cube is a 3-D combination puzzle designed and created by Dutch puzzle maker Oskar van Deventer based on an idea by Bram Cohen. It was initially produced by Shapeways in 2009 and known as "Caution Cube" due to the likelihood of getting one's fingers stuck between the gears while speedcubing. Later, in 2010, it was mass-produced by Meffert's as the "Gear Cube".

Property Value
dbo:abstract
  • El Gear Cube es un rompecabezas mecánico tridimensional inventado por el creador de rompecabezas neerlandés Oskar van Deventer, basado en una idea de Bram Cohen.​ El prototipo fue denominado en 2009 por Oskar como el Caution Cube (Cubo de Precaución) debido al riesgo de atascarse los dedos entre los afilados engranajes (generalmente en el speedcubing).​ Desde 2010 es producido por Meffert's con el nombre actual. Este cubo tiene un sistema de engranajes que sólo permite giros de 180°. A pesar de su formidable apariencia, su solución es más sencilla que la solución del Cubo de Rubik debido a un menor número de permutaciones posibles.​ Para resolver el rompecabezas, debe recuperarse la forma cúbica y cada cara debe volver a quedar en un solo color.

  • The Gear Cube is a 3-D combination puzzle designed and created by Dutch puzzle maker Oskar van Deventer based on an idea by Bram Cohen. It was initially produced by Shapeways in 2009 and known as "Caution Cube" due to the likelihood of getting one's fingers stuck between the gears while speedcubing. Later, in 2010, it was mass-produced by Meffert's as the "Gear Cube". Compared to the original Rubik's Cube, this cube uses a complete gear mechanism. It requires six 180° turns to complete one rotation, resulting in a twisty puzzle. The design of the Gear Cube places all gears externally in order for the mechanics to be seen. While looking rather formidable at first sight, it is nevertheless simpler to solve than the original Rubik's Cube. There are two objectives when solving the cube. The first goal is taking the mixed-up puzzle back to its original cubic state. The second goal is to actually solve the puzzle by arranging each side back to its own beginning color. (en)
