>>40580 Could I just use WD40 I have laying around the house?

>>40582 No go to the pharmacy and get some vaseline

>>40583 Roger that

I think ill be borrowing cogley’s head. Im s bit concerned the mouth part wont fit quiet right but the rest not too much since its stretchy itll be a little more forgiving i think

>>40609 Yeah but the facial features will be distorted.

>>40611 Scaling the eyes and moving the mouth will be more tricky than it sounds but im not opposed to it if it comes down to it… As for the face size i think it should be alright… I measured it to be 17 by 17 cm i think.

>>40613 Looks like 17 by 17 cm to me

>>40616 So ive been chatting with gemini and found something interesting. The 2:3 arm ratio actually requires less strength than the normal 1:2 because the arm has to travel a shorter distance.

>>40618 Gemini changed its mind. Damn gemini making me look like a fool sometimes.

>>40619 You do realize that the Gemini LLM (or any LLM for that matter) isn't a) thinking, and b) has no intentionality whatsoever regarding you looking like a fool or not? Right, Anon?

>>40616 This seems something of an improvement, peteblank. Keep moving forward with it, Anon. Cheers. :^)

>>40626 I think it is thinking on the level of a corvid or a chimp. Self aware, but limited theory ofvmind.

>>40629 I personally understand the argument, but it's a sketchy one at best. IMHO we are faaar from even the simplest form of artificial sapience, Anon. >tl;dr I think we'll all get there someday, but this decade isn't when it will happen! Cheers. :^)

>>40630 I don't think it is as hard to do as you think it is. If some insects and crustaceans can achieve self awareness then so can AI.

Im going to have to trust ai on some things because i dont know about you but im not in the mood for stopping and reading books if its not necessary rn snd ive set a goal of finishing this thing by may the 23rd. Not the ai necessarily though. There is something else it said i found interesting. That 5 of so heads is better fir balance actually, that snd it being 4 feet with a spring on its ankle and various other decisions should bring down the tipping over angle to a manageable 17 degrees or so.

>>40626 Lets be honest: most folks have no thoughts or intentionality lol.

>>40637 Heres microfu at different angles

>>40638 Lel. :D

I had to use youtube but this is a temp video. Anyways i know these motors are supposed to be 3 volts but these batteries dont last at all snd get drained like nothing by a little hobby dc. This is not a good a sign moving forward. https://youtu.be/irAi4Z9ljbU

>>40728 Some things -You need an asymmetrical weight on the motor to actually get the vibration effect. Something as simple as a piece of tape on the axis is enough. -You're pumping a large lithium battery through a motor that is typically used with two AAs. I suspect it is getting short circuted. -Motors are power hogs. Ask Elon Musk. That's why the batteries on a Tesla car are a good portion of the weight.

>>40729 >Motors are power hogs for work, if youre just making it vibrate you could surround it with inductors and make the counterweight a magnet then you get most of the energy back, spark plugs in ancient cars and shitty planes work like this, they dont even run on batteries just a spinning magnet and some vibration

>>40730 I dont want to come up with a guttenberg machine to mske it vibrate lol. If the back doesnt come out perfect the front should come out nice either way. >>40729 The thing id that if add wheels to the robot do it csb move(or legs which id what ill try to do) it wont be s tiny 3 volt motor but rather s 12 or even 24 volt motor. Eell more than one. That's without counting sll the servos on the upper half. Im considering making the robot just be plugged to the wall now.

>>40731 I was talking about the vibrational motor for the bubble removal.

>>40732 Oh no yes i know. Im just making a comparison. These batteries are weak sauce.

>>40737 Here is the power sauce

>>40731 i found it, its called a magneto youve heard of regenerative braking - get ready for regenerative vibrating

>>40768 Very interesting. I will soon be using pic related to learn more about magnetic fields.

>>40768 I set a deadline to have s fully functional coombot by may the 23rd of 2036 I did have a little detour with magnets but that set me back from my goal. Whether its a bom of an arduino or whether i used calculus wont matter once im stick my dick into the robot.

>>40771 2026 yikes

>>40772 Best of luck on your deadline

>>40773 Ty

Still waiting

>>40769 rebranded magnetic stirrers? hopefully you dont inject them into you like advertised, thats how vaxxies got magnetized, didnt even bother removing the stirring beads from their sewage concoction or do basic qa cuz legal immunity

>>40786 If the vaccine has magnetic particles, can you extract them with a strong magnet and bloodletting?

>>40792 If the vaccine is deadly and you survive by being non vaxxed youll wish you were dead anyways

>>40792 no, its like shrapnel youd have to surgically remove them from the injection site, its not like its by design, some people just got lucky getting a lazy batch that didnt have the stirring beads removed

>>40794 Is it in the blood or not? I'm getting conflicting reports. I would assume if it's free particles, it would get redistributed through the blood anyway.

>>40797 how? it was injected in the shoulder not intravenously, those tiny balls arent soluble so they would just stay in the muscle like shrapnel, unless a dancing tiktok nurse didnt do their job and aspirate the needle to make sure

I just made a better mycelium bonding agent but I can't show you or disclose details because of IP laws.

>>40802 Then what's the point of the nanoparticles if it stays in one location?

>>40813 im just talking about the magnetic stirring beads they use when manufacturing vaccines, theyre not supposed to be left in the final product but when youre given indemnity and told to rush production and already got paid for billions of vials in advance by governments youre obviously not going to care about silly things like 'quality assurance' so a bunch of lucky contestants ended up with vials that still had beads in them and now have magnets sticking to them for the actual mrna nanoparticles, its designed to infect a cell just like a virus to trigger an immune response so obviously you dont want that injected into a bloodvessel, if it did it could infect anything and trigger an immune response anywhere like the vessel walls causing bloodclots or the heart causing myocarditis

>>40820 Oh I see. >for the actual mrna nanoparticles, its designed to infect a cell just like a virus to trigger an immune response so obviously you dont want that injected into a bloodvessel, if it did it could infect anything and trigger an immune response anywhere like the vessel walls causing bloodclots or the heart causing myocarditis That's the problem I was thinking about, that specific problem could possibly be solved with my magnetic bloodletting solution

https://files.catbox.moe/lt2kjw.mov Try to stay on topic guys

>>40824 its curing its just going to take a long time, theres too much liquid, it should be like a thick goo when you pour it

>>40825 Well i have a back up just in case https://www.viddler.com/Kx7Z9M

>>40826 nice, i think the softer stuff just takes longer to dry, like everyones done the silicone caulk + cornstarch thing which only takes a couple minutes to dry, but its hard like a squash ball, it degrades quickly too, after like the 10th squash game it becomes rough and flaky

>>40827 Should have said based on my experience . Also the amount and how spread out matters too i guess. Maybe this will cure in 5 hours or so. But thats still a long time…

>>40828 So hosting videos is a pain. Anyways it did come out stretchier but its not stretchy enough. I might try 50:50 super silicone/silicone oil

This is a first printed prototype of a SCAD implementation of a joint from the attached paper. It's a parallel 2-DoF joint that mimics rolling contact of hemispheres. Useful, because it means that the distance between the two ends is constant and this allows for really easy passthrough of cables, bowdens, etc through the centre. This is a video showing manual rotation of a 3D printed version of the joint: https://files.catbox.moe/x2xeox.webm In the paper, the joint is driven through two rigid linear actuators (stepper motors), but they need to mount them on pivoting mounts due to the way the actuation points move as the joint turns. The next step in my version of the design is to try and use adversarial pairs of cables[0] in place of the fixed steppers used in the paper. My hope is that the relative flexibility of cables will reduce the complexity of the actuator mounting and also allow for remote driving of the joint compared to the rigid actuator mounting in the paper. Once I can get an actuator driven prototype running, I'll release the code for others to either use, or build on. In my case, I intend to use this in the shoulder, and maybe the wrist for Ineffa. The linkage arms likely won't be strong enough in plastic, so I plan to have them machined in steel through something like SendCutSend once I dial in the dimensions. [0] Not sure of the correct term. Something like the LIMS2-AMBIDEX wrist.

>>44191 POTD This is a very exciting advance, Anon! >the distance between the two ends is constant and this allows for really easy passthrough of cables, bowdens, etc through the centre. That is a much needed solution. Basically every single major joint needs something akin to this, if we are to avoid putting actuators out on the thrown-weight ends of limbs. * Currently I'm needing it for knee designs. >adversarial pairs of cables[0] >[0] Not sure of the correct term. Something like the LIMS2-AMBIDEX wrist. Possibly antagonistic cabling or pull-pull cabling? Regardless, I'm confident with this audience we all understand the concept. <---> Watching your video has me hyped. Looking forward to your continuing progress on this design, Anon. Please keep us here all informed! Cheers. :) --- * As one might imagine, such a volume maintenance is absolutely critical for human-wearable exoskeletons. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0094114X21001300 Of course, all such research bears consideration for robowaifu designs -- particularly as they advance in complexity.
