Gear Cube involve either half turns or a full rotation. It has six stationary centers, each with a different color, that always stay opposite from another specific center. White is always opposite of yellow. Blue is always opposite of green. Red is always opposite of purple. Each center determines what color that side will be. The centers are exactly based on the original Rubik's Cube. They are connected by a three dimensional cross with screws and springs allowing for less tension. Many cube solvers use the same notation when completing a cube, whether they are working on the original Rubik's Cube, the
C-Cube Umesh Padval was brought in to run C-Cube Semiconductor in 1998. During the late 1990s, C-Cube was unable to repeat its runaway hits seen earlier in the decade. The company sold its DiviCom division to Harmonic Lightwaves in May, 2000 for nearly $1.7 billion. C-Cube Semiconductor (Nasdaq CUBED) was eventually sold to competitor LSI Logic in March 2001 in a stock transaction worth $878 million. LSI sold off the consumer products business (including what was C-Cube) to Magnum Semiconductor in 2007. C-Cube C-Cube Microsystems was an early company in video compression technology as well as the implementation of that technology
