      Except for the lower body half, i think humanoid robots are actually practical for us, because the whole world is made to be navigated and operated by humans.
      Each individual task could probably be easier and more effectivly done by a specialized robot, but almost all tasks can be done 90% as good by a humanoid robot.
      Thats the real advantage.

      I used to think like that, but one of the biggest reasons for humanoid robots is the fact is that we have designed our whole world for that form factor. Think about things like having one robot that can climb stairs, cook food, work machinery, sew, etc.

    In my first semester of engineering school, I had a class called Bio-Inspired Design where the core philosophy behind that is that humans are trying to solve problems that nature has already figured out millennia ago, so instead of re-inventing the wheel and finding a solution through brute force, engineers can look at how nature has adapted to the problem and base their designs off of that.
    At the time, it felt like a no-brainer and an underrated design philosophy among engineers, especially in America. It made me smile to see how the vine robot was based on that exact principle and hopefully the same could be said for a multitude of other projects after that.

    I've seen this argument years ago. We've been making robots for hundreds of years. We just don't make them human shape, we make them the shape that is best suited for their purpose. A dishwashing machine is pretty good at washing dishes compared to humans, but it also doesn't achieve the task by doing it like a human, dishes by dishes scrapping it with a clothe, etc. It just floods it for 45 minutes, it contain all the liquids and detergent. Drain it out. Purpose built robot are just more efficient to do what they do.

      Yes, but multi purpose robots are best of shaped somewhat close to humans because the world they will be operating in was build specifically for humans. Being able to use tools made for human hands is an obvious example. Navigating stairs, escalators, elevators, ladders, access hatches and doors are mechanically very different, but they're all designed to work for bipeds with some amount of reach.

Not only will a humanoid robot wash my 50 plates, cups, and utensils faster than my 3hour cycle on my dishwasher, but it's more efficient at mowing the lawn, folding the laundry, and vacuuming than that same dishwasher... for example.

You have a 2m wide "vine robot" enter through a typical entry door, and it tunnels its way into the bad environment and gives responders or whoever safe access into the building. It tunnels its way in with a Tyvek fabric or similar, tightly woven enough to be an effective barrier to a hazardous environment and tough enough to be walked on.

    15:30 - makes sense because one way of clearing straight paths across minefields is to use an air mortar to throw a line of plastic explosive across a minefield. One thing that become a method is to use drones with thermal cameras to identify mines at dusk as they hold their heat longer than the ground as the sun sets. You could map them at dusk, load the locations into a computer map, send the direct-able line charge across the minefield picking out the mines in the dark based on its stored pattern. Then you can detonate the charge at dawn and spend the rest if day using hard robots or armored vehicles that find any mines missed in the old way - by running over them. Combining all the techniques could render large areas fit for civilian use again more rapidly.

      Such methods will very likely be used for military applications, rather than civilian purposes. Blowing explosives up is highly disruptive and risks sending all kinds of shrapnel around. When clearing old minefields for civilians you are not in such a hurry that you can't spend a few days going through the minefield with detectors to not cause disruption. Same cannot be said when you are in middle of an armored offensive with strict schedules the entire operation hinges on and you need to push through a minefield, that's when the explosives go in.
      Kinda funny that in the video he switched topics from "civilian mine clearing" to other applications when asked why not to use metal detectors or something. I think the vine robot guys might be eyeing for some juicy defense contracts. Not blaming them, as those can totally make or break a company, but I doubt clearing old minefields in Africa is the intended purpose of such a design.

    I work in the medical field. As appealing as those robots sound. It would be pretty risky to try and intubate someone with that kind of robot. Even more if you use them in the dark or with your patient in a complicated position. You got to take into account the person distress and the time window you got to work with. Furthermore, if there is some bleeding in the trachea, you need to suck up the blood first before intubation, which the robots can not do yet. So very nice in theory, but a lot of work before getting those in ambulances and hospitals. Awsome video, much love ❤

It would need to know which way was ‘up’ and I’m sure that deeply compacted snow isn’t quite like sand but it feels to me like there are similarities and in an emergency situation where those first minutes are so critical, providing breathing gas and a visible location sounds pretty useful to me.

    I can't wait for something like TARS from Interstellar, although it is not a soft material, there is a principle there which I think robots benefit from, a simple design which can expand into complexity. That robot from the movie when you look at it is just a block of metal, but it then can with help of electronics and software, change it shapes into smaller blocks which can then move in coordination with each other, which can create many unique shapes, and make it be able to perform many different things. Whether it is from a soft or hard material, robots like these might be our future, the ones that are so stupidly simple that it ends up working so well, because the simplicity allows for so much creativity and space to move, change, and do almost anything you want.

I think you could say that this is also logical right?
      To me beauty ( and maybe this could be the true ultimate form of beauty ) can also be trancendent. like: - How can you prove that your wife, husband or kid loves you? - go search your environment for it, you will not find it absolutely anywhere in the entire galaxy.. but you just know it exists, and it's beaultiful.
      ..or like a piece of art. yes it's a physical object right in front of you, but what about all the questions that it's asking you, all the meaning that emanates from it inviting you, challenging you, questioning you, sometimes even jugding you. those things are not material in nature but they can be just as real as the object, maybe even more real I would say; a different kind of real. much more 'refined' and 'subtle'. a reality that cannot be destroyed.

    I always see people use the example of a dishwasher for why a specialized robot is better than a humanoid one. But the best dishwasher in the world is WAY worse at cleaning dishes than a human is. Think about how many items are "hand wash only". A humanoid robot could clean my cutting board, vacuum insulated cup, carbon steel knives and pans, etc, all using far less water than a dishwasher AND actually getting them properly dry. Similarly, a robot vacuum will never be able to clean your windows or dust your mantle. Conversely, a humanoid robot will never do the jobs of any of the robots in this video, certainly; but that doesn't mean humanoid robots won't have a place. The future will most certainly have a mix of humanoid and non-humanoid robots.

      I think a better example would be a washing machine? i don't know if they clean better but they definitely clean faster, which freed up a lot of work! for women in particular. anyone who has washed clothes or fabrics by hand knows how tedious it can be.
      edit: i also think humanoid robots will probably be for places where humans would be most optimal but can't be due to health concerns. so a very niche application but one that might exist!

    As a person who worked at a plumbing company, cameras that go into lines are made of metal but so breakable, and it costs about 290-360$ to camera a line. This would be crazy to use to inspect lines

    Soft and weak robots will have less uses; terminator endoskeletons will not be just in factories and construction sites; people are.gonna want robots that can carry their groceries, react fast enough to avoid letting a vase they bumped fall of the table etc. Compliant mechanisms can't be passive, domestic robots must have the ability to use at least human-level power (strength and/or speed) in order to do many of the tasks people would want them to perform.

      I imagine a world where robots do all the work. From mining metals, forging them into usable parts, building the world, while humans collect a check every month and spend their time on leisure activities.
      Basically the government (we the people) collectively own everything. Nobody owns a McDonald's anymore, they are all state owned, everything is state owned. So when you buy anything, that money goes back into the government coffers to be redistributed the next month.
