The New generation Rubik’s Cube Touch will hit the market on October 18th. The first Rubik’s cube was invented in 1974 by Erno Rubik and was released to market in 1980. Now, the Hong Kong based company Techno Source is preparing to release this new generation Rubik’s Cube. It will be available to the public with a $149.99 price tag.

It has no moveable parts, all six sides are designed to be interactive with the touch of your finger. Each color lights up when you swipe your finder over the squares. You can swipe your finger in an L shape or straight and Cube will mimic your manual moves with its touch sensor technology.  Its accelerometer remembers the moves and allows you to rotate cube. Active side hikes upper side automatically.  The Touch Cube also has a bundle of choices for sound effects.

Finally, the on-board computer provides hints if it needed, or help to solve itself.

Off the record, it can be also used as a night lamp, too! :)

Here is a demonstration video of Rubik’s Cube Touch taken from its official website:
