The handheld cube is made up of 3D-printed exterior pieces (the twistable cubes we’ve all grown to love and hate) and a digital core that connected wirelessly to a laptop that controls the projection on the façade.

The actual cube is a pristine white, making it harder for those who have memorized their puzzle-breaking pattern. Check out the video to see it in action:
