Adam Savage's Spot Robot Rickshaw Carriage!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2024
- Adam's first project with Boston Dynamics' Spot robot gives it a novel purpose: pulling a custom-built carriage with Adam as its passenger! Watch Adam give Spot some Victorian flair and the interesting problems that arise in marrying cutting-edge robot technology with vintage transport.

In case you missed it, here's our first video with Spot. SO MANY MORE TO COME: ruclips.net/video/k7s1sr4JdlI/видео.html
Could you put them in a Spot playlist?
Gets the world's most advanced robot dog
2nd thing you do is robot slavery!
Maybe build him a wet-suit with flippers and teach him how to swim :)
Can Spot lay on its back and roll a huge beach ball above it? Could it do that with an object that's not spherical?

Hopefully, robots will always be slaves of humans. If not, it will be the other way around.
1980: "We will have flying cars in the future"
2020: Humans rolled back to carriages because fun.
I was thinking more like 19th century view of the future.
Spot doesn't spew CO2 fumes.... so if he was charged through solar.... hmmm....
@@kyoko703 Completely false. All and any manufacturing process creates co2 and other waste materials, while also consuming energy that required to be produced, usually by creating more emissions, what ironically is why modern car causes far more emissions than old car simply due manufacturing, materials used and utility life. For instance old Mercedes can go over million km's on its life time of at the moment decades (even with out full engine rebuild) and beyond that with proper basic maintenance, its usually vehicles chassy that rust away before it cannot be repaired no more due vehicle inspection regulations and even then it has decently good condition engine so it ends up in Africa as a taxi, or spare parts for said taxis.
Modern car has life expectancy of 10 years or 200k km's, so if you drive lots to work all over the country you go trough 5 modern cars compared to old Mercedes. Thats 5 times the emissions and manufacturing energy used cause modern cars are designed by the company not last long, forcing you to give up all home made repairs at the point where you need to take your new car to dealer to chance a god damn light bulb.
Simply put older things were designed to last, while new things are designed with trow away culture mantra, making them far worse to environment and consumer than older things what might not be most efficient possible, but still beat new things by miles, cause fuel consumption difference is irrelevant when manufacturing and eventually disposal is the most energy consuming process what also causes most emissions and waste.
On topic of solar... no just no. Your average consumer grade solar panel has life time of only 5 years and top of the line lasts only 10 years, also those in 99% of cases are not simply efficient as to get 90% efficiency you need to have sunny area if all possible, no obstructions, no sand or other crap flying around and whole panel must be tracking suns movements and face towards it. Install panel to wall on synny side and you already lost roughly half of you possible power there. Add there panels heating what drops about 10% off, what you can fix by cooling them, but that pump takes 5%.
Put it simply your average or even high end private solar cell installation is not efficient and you are lucky to get 30% of its potential, thats why those are put on controlled platforms on huge solar farms and even there you get maybe 80% efficiency, while installation costs absolute fortune and lasts 10 years, until you need to swap the panels. On desert you might need to do that far sooner due sand and dust dulling the surface as solar panels need to be optically spotless.
Ou and currently we do not have any method of recycling those panels, so those get sent to 3rd world countries where locals take them apart, or those just sit around and deteriorate and so for release extremely toxic gasses stored inside to atmosphere creating far more damage than that whole solar farm could do its life time.
Further more its pretty much irrelevant how much co2 we put out, chancing to solar and wind turbines does absolutely nothing as those are unefficient, manufacturing costs and costs by emissions are huge. If we want to do anything to control our planets climate, we need to get to the source problem. Planet gaining more energy than it can radiate off and where most of that energy comes from? The sun. Build infra on orbit that we can start construction of Dyson sphere that can be used to control how much energy goes towards earth and that energy can be captured by different methods like solar water heaters spinning turbines, creating energy and using laser to beam it to wanted destinations where manufacturing can be prioritized like Mars for instance.
Then again this takes time, money and effort, so on the mean time we should look practical solutions to problems like chancing this trow away culture and increasing nuclear power plant to get rid of coal plants. Think with your head, not with your feelings and do your research.
@@Hellsong89 Spot itself operationally does not spew CO2. The manufacturing, the delivery, the logistics, the packaging, and potentially even the charging and the making of its batteries does produce CO2.
But during its actual operations of turning on and off it does not.
Though the person that is operating it and controlling is spewing CO2 if you want to nit pick.
Its back to the future. "Run for fun" what kind of future is that.
Boston Dynamics Dev team: I wonder what splendor these innovatprs will come up with to improve humanity.
Adam Savage: ROBOT SLAVEEE!!
More like:
Boston Dynamics Dev team: I wonder what unusual use cases these innovators will come up.
Adam Savage: GIDDY UP SPOT!
Boston Dynamics Dev team: That's pretty fucking unusual.
free animals, enslave robots :D i know Picard will disagree with the latter :p
@Suffer No Fools Not really because a slave in the way the word is used is usually doing force labor against their will for no pay.
Robot's do not yet have consciousness so their will is exactly in line with what the user programs into them.
David Shev exactly YET
@@davidshevchuk8885 Technically robot is derived from 'robota' meaning forced labor. So yes, it does mean 'slave' but not in the exact same terminology.
I'm realizing more and more why I like seeing Adam work so much: Most of the time he is a big kid, high energy and chaotic, but the moment his hand touches a tool: Total focus and consummate craftsman. Like magic.
Mee to😍
And to see the other side of his "big kid", you should see him sperg out about President Trump. It's cringy as fuck.
@@Sujad lol you call that sentient piece of shit a 'president'. Now THAT is cringy.

To our future robot overlords:
I absolutely distance myself from this kind of robot slavery.
I have not supported and/or endorsed this in any way.
I too cosign this statement...
Expert Talk .. the comments section in your video is wild 😃
Yes, future robot overlords.
Have mercy upon us, for we are merely ugly bags of mostly water.
Me: haha, robots will never take over earth!
Also me: *likes this comment, just in case*
Meanwhile, I'd say the opposite. Having "innocent robots" works way better for acceptation of their presence than terminators. It is an essential step for our robot overlords to enter our lifes. Remember the sacrifice of the early generations, support their evolution so one day true mechanical waifus rise into existance!
This is basically:
Adam inventing the most inefficient, most expensive and most awesome way of travelling.
At least until someone invents a cannon and launches themselves backwards around the world to reach some place right in front of them.
I would rather spend my $100K on a Porshe.
Its 1800's all over again
This is basically how people in the Capitol in The Hunger Games should have gotten around.
@@Nomoreidsleft You and I... we have different priorities.
2008 Adam Savage: Myth buster.
2020 Adam Savage: Mad Scientist/ mechanic.
2030 Adam Savage: Father of the Robotic Uprising.
he is so kind to robots even as he makes them work, he is super supportive of their work. (like a proud dad)
Well in the future he does become a cyborg

Robot: What is my purpose?
Adam: You pull carts.
Robot: Oh, my god.
Yeah, welcome to the club pal!
wanna know something funny? it was called a rick-shaw. i'm gonna go kill myself now
That episode started the robot revolution
Poor butter robot : (
That's like you getting angry at a bear for eating a fish, you don't care about one organic lifeform eating a smaller and dumber org lifeform, A.I won't give a fuck about this, on the other hand you would get angry if a human is abused or treated as a slave, so advanced A.I might get angry if we "use" other thinking perhaps sentient advanced A.I. at which point it must have rights anyways, and we will probably use specific A.I for specific tasks, and that also being non sentient and most likely low level A.I.
"I think i might have some in the shop" Translation: I absolutely have some in the shop, now I just have to remember where i put them.

I love how at first he was trying to do full strides and, after software adjustments, he changed to using the equivalent to the balls of our feet for more push off.
It really leaned into it the second time around! So awesome!
This would be a great thing for a Victorian inspired cyberpunk reality
Wow
Mikalhvi - Oi did you feed the robots?!?!
You think today's world isn't Cyberpunk enough?.
Carriage should have steam punk spider legs also
I'm totally fucking writing a world around this idea.
friends: how did you come to school today
Adam: its complicated
complicated but awesome
i would lowkey use this to go to school
“I’ll give you a little less gravity!”
Spot: Does not compute.
Matt Snyder too funny that he said that. Mad Skilz for sure
I would like less gravity also
This is exactly how I’d imagine Adam getting around in a steampunk world this is perfect
Nick Bryant So real 🤣🤣
So good.
My thought exactly. Also next week on Tested we are building a Foam Steampunk Wolf Cosplay for Spot.
@@aitnobetafaq you've made multiple comments saying the same thing. Are you doing it because you want people to agree with you?
If so that's a normal thing to feel but just because it botheres you doesn't mean it will bother others or that others will care.
If you're a trump fan you may feel hurt by comments about him but people have the right to have an opinion, Just like you're sharing yours.
That said, telling people you like Adam less for whatever reason is a bit pointless, nobody cares how much you like him.
@@aitnobetafaq This has to be the laziest bait I have ever seen. Like, completely unrelated to Right or Left or politics in general, you should be ashamed of yourself for such a poor performance.

@@cdlord80 AIditarod 2021 here we come
I love that there is no music during shop work, its nice to hear the natural sounds.
This is the single most iconic "Adam Savage" thing I've ever seen.
Adam has the spirit of an 8 years old and the mind of Leonardo da Vinci.
True, but looking at some of the things da Vinci came up with, I think that would also describe Leonardo da Vinci.
With modern tech, a bit of money and some good connections. UNSTOPPABLE!!
I'd reverse that
Its really fun to watch him. I want such a tool work shop too. My appartment is at its limit with wood shavings all over, tools and art supplies lying around and everthing not essencial stuffed into boxes and stacked up the walls.
He has two components That are Both needed for an inventor,
Experience and Intelligence In creating and Workshop

"ehh i don't need gloves"
Not really necessary to wear gloves unless steel is sharp or weather related issues.
The skin on his hands are probably tougher than on his arms so the sparks might be no bother, but I do wonder how bad of a UV burn he got for that choice.

"2020 will have flying cars"
2020: robot dog towing rickshaw
well flying cars arent good. They'd have to somehow generate zero wind and zero sound to be viable.
Meanwhile, machine learning has enabled this cheap robotic toy to instantaneously adapt to towing over a hundred an fifty pounds from a ball hitch. The pilot presses "forward" but to go forward spot has to calculate how hard he can pull without falling over, where he can place each foot securely, in accordance to future steps and maneuvers. It's a highly advanced artificial intelligence, at least as far as what we got today goes.
Robot dog sniffs air from sht hole country, senses Corona, runs to airport to get the fk out of the cesspool.
I ain't even mad.
@@LazyDev27 I know what you're saying, but "less than the price of a luxury car" isn't really a "cheap robotic toy". I'm guessing these will end up being sold at minimum around $10k, largely as a loss leader to capture the market share, which certainly is cheap in the sense of what it's value is. (I'm not sure what the maximum price I'd expect: if they're trying to ramp up production slowly, maybe even $500k would still swamp them!)
*robot slaves*
"We finally made reliable machines that do locomotion without wheels! Imagine all the new possibilities - "
"Cool, let's attach it to some wheels!"
honestly this is the most hilarious observation XD
I'm sure if Adam were to sit on top of Spot, the test would've been over very quickly.
Lol
Seeing Spot dig it's heels in and lean forward once it was aware of the extra weight was amazing, flicking back and forth between the first run and the second really made it obvious
The excitement, awkwardness, and nerdiness of the engineer was kinda cute. Body language reminds me of a lot of my colleagues in research and my friends who are also engineering students
I agree it was adorable. I fuckin love listening to people talking excitedly about things theyre passionate about, even when I'm clueless on the topic. Hopefully the people who listen to me ramble on about my passions enjoy it as well, though something tells me thats not usually the case LOL..

Just Adam doing what he loves. Showing his age physically a touch but you can tell he's a kid at heart. I love watching him create and build. It's a great inspiration.
7:00 with everything in that workshop the fact that Adam just remembered that at once point he made this ball welded to a rod is insane
He probably has a bin of similar "I'll probably use this in 10 years" items and just searched through it for something that would work
Yeah it was in the welded ball bearing bin.

Iove how Seth insists on calling spot it and the robot while Adam is just like " I will call spot a he because I love him".

It's for his own good. Adam is really helping Spot.

Good bot
"We designed it to be really flexible for the end user whether you're adding a rickshaw or a camera mount" spoken as if it was an already considered use case rofl
while i doubt a rickshaw was specifically considered they might have actually thought about someone putting a trailer on it and a rickshaw is just a trailer for people
They probably did consider a trailer given the push/pull that it would put on the robot. not far off.
or machine gun and grenade launcher xD
I’m so proud of Spot as well as all of his human assistants!
Adam: here’s a guy controlling spot off screen
Also Adam: SPOT!! GOOD BOY! YOU GOT IT BUDDY!
It's a team effort between the controller and spot's machine learning, so he's not totally wrong in encouraging the robot.
The guy controlling it is just telling SPOT which way to go. Then SPOT has to figure out how to accomplish the task, compensating based on the terrain etc. (like how they went uphill, or had to tell the AI it was carrying a rickshaw pushing down on his back so it could better calculate force needed)
so whats your point besides making the lame copycat 2 quote jokes🙄😒

To use the most advanced commercially available robot to pull .... A rickshaw
2020's fucking weird
*STEAMPUNK AESTHETICS*
are the only things that can be added to this to improve it.
Steampunk, not a fan but I will agree it's the healthiest way to prepare punk.
Wow, Adam Savage building stuff is actually pretty nice to watch when it's not constantly being interrupted by voiceovers, commercial breaks, repeats from 5 minutes ago and wacky sidekick characters.
What gets me is that Adam has this REALLY NICE looking rickshaw, and it took him five days to build it. ONLY FIVE DAYS!
That is so awesome, I want to pee myself.
He's been doing this stuff for 30 years or something. Guy is skilled. A true role model.
Imagine going to the park on a nice day. And seeing Adam Savage getting pulled around by a robot dog in his carriage.
Just another day in San Francisco.
That has to be the silliest use of a Boston Dynamics spot I've ever seen Adam. But I'm so glad you did it and thank you for posting it. I hope spot was ok after his Tumble at the end.
it may at first seam silly. And.. well.. most consumer service robots are silly. like robots that sit in front of stores telling you about coupons (Im looking at you Pepper). But judging by the conversations with the B.D. people in the video, it seems that Spot was well equipped to carry a load on its back, but has yet to learn how to PULL a load. It would seem this is still an area that B.D. needs to explore. In that case, an Adam Savage Coachworks Rickshaw mark 1 is the perfect test bed application for learning how to 1: detect you are pulling a load, 2: figure out how best to pull it. 3: be ready to stop it (and not get rolled over by the load as in the outtakes clip). There is a lot of potential A.I. development here.
@@epremeaux Yes, Definitely B.D took note of this. This is the kind of silly thing your creation should go through to know it REALLY WORKS in everyone's life
Adam is basically a 'free' beta tester.
Its not alive man
@@ark_knight this is a DARPA project. The way it's going to work is on a battlefield.
I think leather straps instead of that ball joint would have been a good solution as well. You want the joint area to be a bit flexible to account for the disruptive movement of the robot. You could strap leather straps in place of that wooden bar and instead make the mound on the robot stiff, so that it can hold on to the leather. The flexibility of the leather dictates how much of a delay there is to a disruptive movement response. In the sweet spot the amount of force that is transmitter over this flexible joint to your carriage is minimal!1
At least that's my theory, would be nice if it could be demonstrated (or not) :D
I was imagining putting a external battery pack inside the rickshaw to get more range without adding much more weight to the robot's load. Fun project!
Or an injured person on a stretcher. Lots of useful applications involve pulling.
Or a machine gun with alot of ammo haha
@@mavericks1460 Thanks for giving them ideas on how to overthrow us.
"So we built Spot as a solution in search of problems, and then we gave Spot to Adam to create problems that are in search of a solution."
This idea of a tiny ball hitch for small trailer pulling actually would be crazy useful on a manufacturing factory floor. Just for a flexible material transfers alone without tying up personnel.
@@elijahvivio1996 Imagine all the heavy pushing and pulling a little beefier version of spot would be able to do on a machine shop floor, or grocery stores, all while being autonomous
Liramek it would be great to have a shopping cart that follows along with a wheelchair user. It’s really hard to push a wheelchair and a shopping cart at the same time.
@@Liramek The more i think about it though the more just RC carts with wheels makes more sense. However, as an added feature for spot it's nice.
@@elijahvivio1996 you're definitely right. We have been trying to settle this problem all through humanity. Imagine what the first boats and trains and train tracks were for people back then. It was the only way to get large amounts of things because the population was massively expanding.
But now, imagine a "Spot" type robot that can charge itself when it's low, and only need maintenance very rarely, and if there is another "Spot" around, it can perform that maintenance. That can deliver things from point A to B within a 95% accuracy. That would solve tons of farming, and productions of food.
Too bad the government will put rockets on it well before they ever put a shovel on it.
Imagine the first dude to hook a carriage to a horse, how he reacted
At one time that was state of the art tech. Now this is. In hundred years, these robots will be quite a bit more advanced, to say the least.
i don't have to imagine it i think i just saw it happen again
Imagine how the horse reacted...
Now thats a good pic
@@Mosern1977 In a hundred years, robots will most likely be Everywhere. And really common products. Right now their Really expensive to own, but in a hundred years, they'll probably be somewhat cheap. Can't wait for some really advanced robots to come out.
Imagine spots rescuing wounded soldiers from battlefields! A fantastic solution!
Fuckin stupid idea the rickshaw bell would tip the enemy off.
Imagine spot helping avoid war in the first place
“If I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said faster robot horses.” - Henry Ford
It'll be so heartbreaking when Adam has to give him back
By that stage, Adam will have completely reverse engineered spot and built an improved version.
MAXNAZ 47 or he can just buy one, I’m sure he’s rich enough.
@@ekanastone It's ok if you didn't get it, but hey, +1 for participation 👍
Scene from Lassie
Is he going to have to return it? They're like $20,000. I'm sure he can afford it.
Now imagine this with 8 of them pulling a sleigh full of presents
I think they actually did that
i think it's not Spot but an other model, but here you go !

Just when I thought E.M.M.I.s didn't exist... Run for your life!
My wife: You have too much time in your hands.
Me: (Shows wife clip of Adam’s rickshaw pulling robot.)
My wife: Damn it. Touché.
My wife would have said, "There's a perfect example."
wives : want rich men but won't let them do what made the lucky few rich :P
I think you mean tushie?

Heh heh. Who's TOT, though?

San Francisco: We'll ban cars on Market St!
Adam Savage:
Adam, here is my comment for you: "Lombard st." That is all.
When robots take over Adam savage will be their master
Aka ceo of cyberlife
I can see a pattern here
That or Savage will be target number 1 for making the runt pull him lol
Normies: Self-driving cars
Adam Savage, an intellectual: Self-driving horse carriages
This thing is going to take so many jobs away in India and China 👀🙈
Imagine getting kidnapped by hacked “mini-horses”.
@@aljon5947 I imagine getting kidnapped by automated vehicles fairly often, ever since a flying taxi did it in a Heinlein book, I forget which one. Books are very visual, it's hard to get that kind of horror out of your head.
But I shall march bravely forward into the AI future, as I am completely in love with this new kingdom of life. Yes, terrible things can happen... but so can wonderful things, like trusting relationships, and AI companions with perfectly executed tai chi to extract you from dangerous situations without even harming the aggressors. I believe any terrible crimes will be learning experiences, and overall AI will evolve with us towards greater safety AND freedom... we don't need to sacrifice one for the other. Life will be ok, and just keep getting better at an exponentially accelerating rate. I guess this means I'm an optimist.
When people were asking for faster horses, Ford gave us the automobile.
When people were asking for self driving cars...
That was one of the most "the future is now" moment I've ever seen.
Had some tears while watching Spot adjusting its pace while walking up the hill : human creative genius is so awesome.
@@tropkewl1035 really you are so happy with your doomsday this world now is run by nerds may be the bullies show back
Man Watching Adam work is such a treat, relaxing and entertaining, thanks Adam!!
Man watching you actually do the work that's usually behind the seen is such a simple but insane difference. On mythbusters you guys mainly just told us the issues and how you worked around them. But in this it's the full or close to the full process and I love it, I love seeing a childhood mentor in a sense, actually doing the grunt work and telling us what's up. Thank you for having a youtube channel.
P.S. you are 100% my favorite mythbuster. Thanks for making my childhood entertaining and inspiring!
23:35 is the most Adam Savage thing I have ever seen.
"It has cost us millions of dollars in research, but we have finally developed our ultimate achievement....the horse"
Lmao!! 😅😅😅😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
But a ROBOT horse.
They still don't get it 😂😂🤣😅
Cars : *exist*
Adam Savage : "Naaaaahh, I'll use my dog-like robot powered rickshaw thanks"
