  • I am building a life size version of Rock'em Sock'em Robots, and I'm using pneumatic cylinders to make the arms and head move. In this video I print the arm and head pieces and secure them to the robot. Everything was going smooth until I jinxed it by saying that out loud. Fortunately I was able to solve all the problems that came up and by the end I demonstrate what this robot can do for the first time.

    If you're like me you have creative ideas and sometimes they get trapped inside your mind. Here on Byte Sized Engineering I make project videos that get you excited about unleashing your inner maker and making those creative ideas a reality!
    You shouldn’t need an engineering degree to make your ideas a reality. I suffered through years of engineering school so you don’t have to. I know how it feels to want to make something I’m excited and passionate about, but also feel overwhelmed by not knowing where to start. I’ve unlocked the secret to getting past this feeling of being stuck. In my videos I show you how to take complex problems and break them down into smaller, more manageable “byte sized” pieces.

    Gosh, this brings back so many memories for me! Love the project. The insertion of the rail during the print is pretty cool. Gives me some ideas.

    I’m doing a rock em sock ‘em myself as a project for my school, where the movements are translated from a gyroscope/accelerometer that the user manipulates in a gauntlet. I’m building the thing and would be super handy to have the 3D model of the robots

    It looks like the 3d printer was able to bridge that gap no problem. I'm not totally sure the extrusion actually did anything there

    Is there a BOM and code for this project? Would like to build this for fun.

    Leak checking pneumatics - water with some dish soap in it is your friend. Pref in one of those squeazy bottles with a nozzle. Put a bit of water around the interface points and if it bubbles up you got a leak.

      That's exactly what I did! I used a syringe cuz it's what I had on hand. Great tip. Thanks for sharing!

    Do you think the IMU will give false readings from its own punches?

    • @bytesizedengineering
      @bytesizedengineering  Год назад

      You know, I hadn't considered this. I'm hoping to be able to distinguish between punches by looking at the data

  • @famousamoso7
    @famousamoso7 Год назад

    Love your videos. Something with this project I noticed is the punches hit the chest area vs the original where they are more upper cuts. Will you be changing the design to mimic that or keep it the same?

    • @bytesizedengineering
      @bytesizedengineering  Год назад

      You know I thought a lot about this. You are correct, on the original toy the punches are more uppercut style. From what I can tell most of them land on the chest, but if one hits the chin it pushes it back just far enough to release it from the clip and the head pops up. Ultimately, I decided that I want my punches to hit the chest because I can make that more robust. I don't want heavy punches hitting the head because it will bend the rod in the pneumatic cylinder. I'd rather avoid that expensive failure!

    I'm confused if you want to appear professional or not. You didn't have to show that clip of tapping the extruded end, but you did. You didn't have the part clamped so you could use the tap with both hands and you were really wobbly...
    I'm just curious about the impression I am supposed to have.
    I don't care. Wobble away. Whatever works I still like what you do. I was just wondering.
