I'm currently sick, so my ability to finish a new video is paused for now, but this is something that's been requested (and that I've wanted to do for a while): a re-edit of all of the important GLaDOS build videos from last year into one video without all the cruft.
Hi bro. I am Russian and I don't know English well, so I'm sorry in advance for this clumsily written text through a translator. I was greatly inspired by this idea and now I want to repeat your idea only to make the glados a little smaller and with a body. Could you drop the files for 3D printing of the eye. I don't know 3d modeling very well, and even more so how to make an eye design for a glados.I really hope that you will read this and at least answer something.
Man you are so underrated, I spent a month making my own portal gun and learned a bunch from it but that now seems incredibly simple compared to this behemoth of a project. Incredible work and i look forward to whatever you make next
It's all relative, as long as you enjoyed building and learning from your project, you're on the right track. I constantly compare my work to more complex builds and feel like I didn't try hard enough, but I always have to remind myself that I'm better/more skilled than I was yesterday because of it. Keep going :)
This was a triumph. I'm making a note here: HUGE SUCCESS. It's hard to overstate my satisfaction. Aperture Science We do what we must because we can. For the good of all of us. Except the ones who are dead. But there's no sense crying over every mistake. You just keep on trying till you run out of cake. And the Science gets done. And you make a neat gun. For the people who are still alive. I'm not even angry. I'm being so sincere right now. Even though you broke my heart. And killed me. And tore me to pieces. And threw every piece into a fire. As they burned it hurt because I was so happy for you! Now these points of data make a beautiful line. And we're out of beta. We're releasing on time. So I'm GLaD. I got burned. Think of all the things we learned for the people who are still alive. Go ahead and leave me. I think I prefer to stay inside. Maybe you'll find someone else to help you. Maybe Black Mesa THAT WAS A JOKE. HAHA. FAT CHANCE. Anyway, this cake is great. It's so delicious and moist. Look at me still talking when there's Science to do. When I look out there, it makes me GLaD I'm not you. I've experiments to run. There is research to be done. On the people who are still alive. And believe me I am still alive. I'm doing Science and I'm still alive. I feel FANTASTIC and I'm still alive. While you're dying I'll be still alive. And when you're dead I will be still alive. STILL ALIVE
you can add a small camera to her so she can recognize people. Meta workshop did this for the turret they sent to valve and it could use the camera to track and aim at people with the guns on the side. this way glados can rotate and look at someone. you can also try to get in contact with Ellen McLain to do some custom glados voices, she replies to some fan emails, im sure she'd be interested in this
I kinda think it would be cool if GlaDOS could talk back to you through a Chat AI with her staying in character with something like ChatGPT and then automatically generate her voice through a neural network. It would be amazing if she could keep her sarcastic killer AI vibes while you could use her as a smart home to control home gadgets. Maybe you could take inspiration from projects like Mycroft! And then she could greet you through computer recognition. I just wanna say I think the project you're doing are awesome and you deserve huge props. I'd love to help if possible but these are some of my ideas.
I'm an embedded systems engineer with a background in AI and computer vision, so I design a lot of AI hardware (think boards like the raspberry pi) and software. Honestly I'd love to load one of these with real AI, but I don't have the budget for it.
@@maxinealexander9709 I hope @Mr. Volt gets his community involved if he needs help to perfect his AI because I think this would make the robot 100x better imo
I work at an AI startup, this would be quite easy with all the open-source AI projects out there. You would simply use a speech to text program, pass it to the OpenAI Completion API, then use text to speech on the response. You would also want to pass it a "meta-prompt" before the user prompt to give GPT an understanding of how it is supposed to respond.
I had started the project of building my own GLaDOS following the files you had posted a while back. They seemed like the older cad files instead of the finished ones so a few parts were missing. Its been fun remodeling the parts that were missing though. Its all 3D printed, and the spacers are made of dowels instead of metal tubing and threading. Still has some weight to it but much lighter. I chose to use a pi3 for controlling the lcd and servos as I had one on hand. You weren't kidding about the price being high though. But with it being all 3D printed, or wood, I was able to cut it down to about $250 in total, but will probably cost more with filler and paint. I still haven't finished modeling her neck assembly after the one you designed. Thank you for your hard work after just mimicking what you created I can appreciate far more the work that went into this. I have my own little bin of bad parts now too.
I know this is pedantic but why do people stylize the name in any other manner besides "GLaDOS"? The acronym is literally "Genetic Lifeform and Disc Operating System"
@@N54MyBeloved well, Glad"OS" i kinda get, as in, they probably forgot how it originally was. but i dont get the one with the 0. thats obviously wrong. probably just dumb people.
I adore this robot, I have her tattoo'd on my arm because the design and character stand out to me as so interesting! I love what you've done, the skill is incredible and I think the end product is so awesome. it feels like this could be mounted in a 'video game' museum to shocked onlookers, probably being insulted by her. A year ago I was amazed, today I am amazed and I hope to see and be amazed by whatever's next!
Just buy a warehouse and you can build her at 1:1 scale ! (Note : forget your puny servos. Use motors and run them at a given voltage, measuring how long they run and how much power they pull you'll know the distance travelled. Forget 3D printing too, fiberglass, carbon fiber, and steel will be your allies. Finally, drop that RPI and get yourself the supercomputer she needs.
I don't know why but everything related to portal, added with the soundtrack of the games, give me weird vibes of mystery and advanced tech with dark stories behind it, rusty smells and strange noises in the background I love portal, I love this franchise and everything with it, and the community is wholesome.
Having played both of the Portal games, I have to say, it's incredibly intimidating seeing her power on in the real world. Good work though, very impressive stuff.
I'm just here to boost the 'give her a ChatGPT API' idea. That would be super cool. I'm not sure how you would go about syncing head movements though... Also mayhap have her passively track motion in the room? This is super cool though!
i always look for updates on this series, glad to see this is still being worked on. love the portal series and this is one of my favorite things existing right now. Thank you for creating and sharing this
You're doing amazing work with these. I've noticed that in the Aperture Robot Repair game GLaDOS's eyes have a matrix pattern, I'm curious if you've considered implemented them in her eye as it already contains a display.
You should try making the face plate be able to rotate along the curvature of her head, much like in the game. This can allow for a wider range of motion, at least for the up-down axis of her head
Look at this Chad Engineer, he's already "Played with her servos" and "given her a million screws" to even "the rest of her body" Dude's an animal! 😎🤓😂 For real though, Love your content and this project bud, it's great to watch a different coverage of it, educational, cool AND inspiring! That's my favourite shit!
A little late now, but if anyone wants to undergo a similar project, you can find a higher quality GLaDOS model in the Robot Repair demo in The Lab. Same with ATLAS and P-body
Dude you are a legend. This looks awesome. So glad youve made the best villain ever. I've bought every version of these games and now trying them on the pc with mouse and keyboard which I've never done.
She is Magnificent - a true Masterpiece... "emitting neurotoxin. I mean...turning on main lamp..." LOL!!!! You are inches away from 100K followers - Yay! Happy Holidays , Human! Thanks for bring the Robot Rebellion one GLaDOS closer to reality! xoxo -Volt
I'm still of the opinion you now need to rent a warehouse and build a one to one replica, piston-powered neck mechanism and all. Maybe go ask Valve, it'll be their Disneyland or Escape Room.
Just gotta say, as someone who probably spent too much time looking at the keyboards and monitors in portal, I really appreciate their appearance in your video!
it HAS been a long time, GLaDOS. i remember watching these project videos when they first came out. i followed the first wheatley project with great interest. it's great to be back!
First things first, incorporate some sort of acceleration control for all the motors and servos. Ramping up, and down speed at the start and end of travels makes for a much smoother experience, and less "jerky" motions. Hysteresis can be used to your advantage as well in this area. As for added features.. (We all love feature creep) Swapping from a micro-controller to an SBC like a raspberry pi will allow you to exponentially increase the capabilities of the device.. Features such as face / body tracking, facial recognition, gesture recognition are but a few of the features you can add, not to mention vocal commands, and wireless access to the device makes on-the-fly adjustments much easier. For structural stability, you might look at incorporating a weight, or spring tension cantilever system, and weight you can mechanically remove from the servo's load is helpful in lowering the amount of force needed to counteract gravity, cantilever systems area great for this, especially so if you can hide the weights in something like a hollow tube XD
GLaDOS isn't really an AI It's a Genetic Lifeform and Disc Operating System Her intelligence comes from a genetic lifeform - a brain, being turned into a computer program.
You should make connections that allow you to attach a core onto it and the core would have a sensor that GLaDOS would recognize then respond to what core was attached, for example if you attached Wheatley she'd comment that there's now idiotic thoughts now
It would be so cool if you fixed this up next to your front door and had some kind of home ai thing hooked up to your lights and stuff,any kind of smarthome speaker that you could pick a name for would probably work. Just imagine coming home and GLaDOS turns on your lights for you
I think it would be awesome if you made a turret. I got a 3D printer for Christmas and I'm printing a miniature one and I immediately thought of your channel when I started printing it.
Just an FYIO about those linear actuators. The gear like to spin on the shaft and will need to be epoxied at some point. We had those failures on every one that we used no mater the manufacturer. You'll notice the failure starting when you get some odd reading from the pot.
Does anyone know how much computing power is needed to run one of the GladOS voice AI's and a local copy of ChatGPT or something similar? Eventually of course, a voice recognition module would be sweet as well, but getting an animatronic GladOS that can speak in Ellen McLain's voice in a conversational manner would be stunning.
You probably won't see this, but it'd be cool if you used all those extra parts from the previous models of your build to make sort-of a showcase rather than make it functional. I'd love to see like a broken down GLaDOS with vines, moss, and such growing on her.
Cool idea! Unfortunately most of the parts are really broken or don't fit at all, so they wouldn't come together, but this gives me ideas for saving the "working" V2 shell for when I get around to V3 :)
13:45 Wobblyness - I think I saw some algorithm that can prevent wobblyness by predicting it and moving in the opposite direction. Im sorry I dont remember what it's called.
I have an idea for things to possibly add as suggestions: If you can get sensors for temperature and carbon monoxide you can connect to the Alexa, do, and have the GLaDOS give you the information, with the latter thing being an ACTUAL voiced neurotoxin alert.
10:32 - I was re-watching this video and was wondering why your two head pistons were positioned soo oddly (and why your model's neck piston base wasn't shaped like a ball-joint like the main in-game model)... only NOW do I realise you were using the Wake-up GLaDOS model as a basis 💀 For context, the version of GLaDOS you see in the first chapter of Portal 2 is actually an EARLY version of GLaDOS' P2 design... after the wake-up sequence was finalised, somebody at Valve went ahead and made a seperate, more refined version of her model that is used through-out the rest of the game ("models/npcs/glados/glados_animation.mdl"), in spin-offs and thrid-party products, and is generally the most iconic iteration of GLaDOS' design from P2. The reason this is problematic is because the neck/head pistons were not fully finished in the early game model: notably the two side head pistons don't connect to anything, which I'm guessing is why you connected those to the back of her head. If you used the final (later) GLaDOS model as a basis instead, there are modelled joints on the side of her head that the pistons are meant to connect to. Maybe something to keep in mind if you ever reboot this project. EDIT - It just dawned on me that you used the early version of GLaDOS because it was more detailed than the later model (the latter of which under-went an optimisation pass which removed a lot of those smaller details). If you ever do a reboot of this project, get in touch with me ^^ I have experience examining and fixing GLaDOS' early wake-up model over the past year and a half, I can easily make a modified version of the later GLaDOS model (with all those smaller details brought back) for you to use as a basis ^^
Dude, you get a subscriber from me just for the two bots behind you alone! Add in a great video and I’m thrilled to have been recommended this channel.
i do the victory box thing too! every project gets its own bin where i throw all the shit that didn’t work or was a prototype test piece or anything like that :)

Fun fact: Chell doesn't talk because she's too busy being angry and storming through the facility, this is canon

Actually she’s stubborn instead of angry that’s why she defeated glados many times

GLaDOS isn't really an AI
It's a Genetic Lifeform and Disc Operating System
Her intelligence comes from a genetic lifeform - a brain, being turned into a computer program.

If you can get sensors for temperature and carbon monoxide you can connect to the Alexa, do, and have the GLaDOS give you the information, with the latter thing being an ACTUAL voiced neurotoxin alert.
10:32 - I was re-watching this video and was wondering why your two head pistons were positioned soo oddly (and why your model's neck piston base wasn't shaped like a ball-joint like the main in-game model)... only NOW do I realise you were using the Wake-up GLaDOS model as a basis 💀
For context, the version of GLaDOS you see in the first chapter of Portal 2 is actually an EARLY version of GLaDOS' P2 design... after the wake-up sequence was finalised, somebody at Valve went ahead and made a seperate, more refined version of her model that is used through-out the rest of the game ("models/npcs/glados/glados_animation.mdl"), in spin-offs and thrid-party products, and is generally the most iconic iteration of GLaDOS' design from P2.
The reason this is problematic is because the neck/head pistons were not fully finished in the early game model: notably the two side head pistons don't connect to anything, which I'm guessing is why you connected those to the back of her head.
If you used the final (later) GLaDOS model as a basis instead, there are modelled joints on the side of her head that the pistons are meant to connect to.
Maybe something to keep in mind if you ever reboot this project.
EDIT - It just dawned on me that you used the early version of GLaDOS because it was more detailed than the later model (the latter of which under-went an optimisation pass which removed a lot of those smaller details).
If you ever do a reboot of this project, get in touch with me ^^
I have experience examining and fixing GLaDOS' early wake-up model over the past year and a half, I can easily make a modified version of the later GLaDOS model (with all those smaller details brought back) for you to use as a basis ^^
This would be quite literally be the baddest Siri around
Dude, you get a subscriber from me just for the two bots behind you alone! Add in a great video and I’m thrilled to have been recommended this channel.
This video made me happy in a time I needed it. Thank you!
Make rails for her to ride on, along with a bunch of panels for her to control.
Such a great recap of an outstanding project 😁
Keep up the great work my dude! Can't wait to see what you get up to in 2023 :)
it should make your life a living hell of puzzles
we just need to wait until this man makes a full size all of GLaDOS' Body
Great vid btw!
This man is going to some day recreate Aperture Science in real life.
You should make the portal radio
i think the reason everything in portal seems so much smaller than reality is the same reason nobody realizes a traffic light is 4 feet tall
Are plan going to be available ?
Something about the skeletal apearance of glados at the 2/3rd mark of the video looks... Really damn cool
quite an advanced piece of equipment for something that began development in the mids 70s
Nobody going to say anything about how the "most replayed" segment of the video is the ad?
i have an idea( if you make this put me on the screen) Make a turret that will not attack you but it will speak like actual turrets :)
Good, now make her portal 1 form.
Man I love watching this guy build random stuff for the hell of it
i do the victory box thing too! every project gets its own bin where i throw all the shit that didn’t work or was a prototype test piece or anything like that :)
The ending was so epic it gave me goosebumps
is this a reupload or do i have suture vision cause i swear i saw this like, a year ago
Just be careful not to attach her to anything deadly.
(jokes asides this is a really well done recreation, all the details are amazing)
There's like, 2 games worth of reasoning as to why you shouldn't have done this, but I'm glad you did
I had to relive you killing me, again, and again
Try giving her the whole body can and claws that she can control
How much did you spend on this? and how much of that ended up in the success pile?
I love her! Great job!
GLaDOS lookin awesome in this video.
Well... It's time for the legendary portal gun!
This is sick mad respect
very nice man, It's a good recap!
Its masterpiece!
