    If I may suggest a course of action with the walking problem... Study Biomechanics of bipedal locomotion of birds. You may notice that birds have more degrees of freedom in their hips than you have allotted in your design. By incorporating the ability to do the splits & torsion the legs. Then, apply design specs into a 3D virtual environment for trail & error to figure out an efficient gate. I think another interesting adaptation may be to add wireless charging to the belly so it can sit on a charging pad.

      if you know some AI evolving software for walking, leg configuration, and balance that would be good. I think 2 legs should be used for our cars and robots, as it allows robots to move more freeform. Also the head can be replaced with a tablet/smartphone.

    This looks fun. I started printing the parts today. I had to fiddle around with the parts in my slicer. Most of them loaded upside-down. Also, I had to add support to some of them. So far, so good. Can't wait for the printing to be over!

    Hi Dan, this looks great!
    I'd love to see a walking version one day but as you said it would be a hard problem to solve. Whilst working on that, I had the same idea as someone else in the comments - Why not consider putting tracks on the end of the legs, in the style of R2D2 - perhaps with a 3rd supporting leg to increase stability when moving (again R2D2 style)

    • @DanMakesThings

    Can you make the legs and neck as a different module, and connect a iphone/tablet onto the robot for simple telepresense? I was thinking you could put solar panels and a battery outside, and have the robots wander around in the back yard and at night they would go back to the "tree" solar panel charger to sleep. You could then get a chinese company to mass produce it.

    • @DanMakesThings
      @DanMakesThings  5 месяцев назад

      Sure, it's modular so you can reconfigure as needed. You'd have a challenge with the 'wandering around the back yard' bit, but wheels might work ;)

    • @mcombatti
      @mcombatti Год назад +1

      Digital dream labs even has an open source AI bot software to install on devices like this, to give them native "vector" features, only customizable ..so all the motion, animation, and movement/travel, and object recognition is already in place and just needs expansion or customization. There's a bunch of gpt and self-operating versions of vector this very moment. Digital dream labs actually sued another company for replicating the Anki vector nearly to the tee about a year ago. (They violated patent law).
