@GeekBoi That sounds like an awesome project. Telepresence robots can be used for all kinds of really useful situations, especially like what you've described. We have talked about developing Grover further in the future, but nothing is concrete yet.

@ralphmourik yes. Good thinking. I'm right there with you. I already have plans and equipment in place to start replacing all of the 3d printed parts with cast aluminum once I'm satisfied with the initial design.

@@ralphmourik 3d printed parts are only for the design phase. 👍😃

@@arxmechanica-robotics Oh this gonna be very interesting then, you got my sub! 👍

@@ralphmourik I just recently bought a furnace to melt scrap aluminum.

@@arxmechanica-robotics Propane or electric?

LOL. 👍😃

Thank you. I only have the one. I would like to add a second for added support.

Good luck. Post a video. I would love to see them. 👍

Thank you. 👍

The two 3.7 volt batteries are in series, so together they are 7.4 volts. The buck converter drops the voltage down to 5 volts to power the raspberry Pi 4.

@@arxmechanica-robotics gotcha doing smth similiar with 3 batteries and a buck converter

That was 200 mm/s, but it can go a lot faster.

@arxmechanica-robotics dang I'm gonna have to try pushing the speed on mine more to see how much it can tolerate.

That's a great question. We are planning to integrate different models into our robots. Probably as ROS nodes at first, working together with other nodes to create a well rounded interactive experience for us and hopefully eventually the robots themselves.

USB C is the plan.

You can use a bit more of 5V so that compensate the voltage drop of the cables. Also keep in mind that you need some protection circuit to not overdischarge the batteries, less than 3.2V per cell on li-ion can damage the cell. 😅

@@siliconplay5 Thanks for your comment. These batteries have built-in discharge protection and the final length of the USB cord after the buck converter isn't going to be more than 6.5cm. I'm not worried about any voltage loss. I could up the voltage by a couple tenths of a volt but i doubt we'll need it.

Oh totally. I agree. It's nowhere near a perfect print. It was literally the first test print in 6 months. The leveling is perfect. The nozzle was a little clogged because it was in storage. But, that being said, it's structurally sounds and does the job, and that is what is important. It's not a fashion show. It's renegade robotics. Lol. Thanks for watching. 🙂👍

@@arxmechanica-roboticsthe filament might need dehydration too if it’s been sitting out for that long

@@arxmechanica-roboticsidk if you live somewhere very humid but here in south Florida moisture is a huge issue for my filament

@@willsum409 totally correct. I moved from a very high humidity climate to a rather dry one in the past couple months. I plan on buying a dehydrator soon. Thanks for the observation. I appreciate it. 👍

@@willsum409 Tampa Bay is where I recently moved from. I know the struggle all too well. 😃👍

Yeah. We packed up the lab at the beginning of the summer and moved across the country. The process took about six months. Now we are relocated and back in action. (The print didn't take six months. 🤣🤣)

There is so much happening.

We recently moved across the country and are in the process of setting up shop again. More videos coming soon.

You can't buy it. You have to 3d print the parts and assemble it yourself. It's open source. All the parts and assembly instructions can be found on Gael's website www.inmoov.fr

@@arxmechanica-robotics Thank you

Product states 11 lbs. (5KG)

On the list, for sure. One step at a time.

How will you do AI? Also, can you try making a tentacle robot?@@arxmechanica-robotics

Yes

The materials cost for one forearm and hand is somewhere around a hundred dollars. The time invested is way, way more than that. If I paid myself for time.... yeah, it would be very expensive.

lol. Yes he certainly can. Is that all you really want?

@@arxmechanica-robotics nah but i just wanna send that to an enemy on discord lol and can a robot breakdance?

@@nachochips1080 haha. He can def break, fairly easily. Breakdance..... doubtful. lol

@@arxmechanica-robotics maybe he can do a tiktok dance?

@@nachochips1080 I'll ask him what he thinks about that. lol

Thank you.

We refer to him as IR1 (Inmoov Robot 1) since he is the first Inmoov robot I started 3d printing a few years ago. We also have an IR2 and an IR.5 (half scale). Thanks for asking.

This robot will mostly not have an outer skin, but it's in the planning stage to have sensor skins on future robots. Thanks for asking.
