@peteoxenham the funniest outcome is that you and i spent three years evangelizing machining and yelling about 3d printing on twitter... to end up making the next benchy
@cixliv Yeah for sure, but I mean at this time stamp the robot could have easily broken the guys leg. Unless they’re doing some movie magic and recording robot and human separately and superimposing.
@cixliv I still don’t believe they would have someone doing mirror movements that close to a robot that can do that but 🤷♂️
At one point their feet are like maybe a foot apart?
anyways wild video if real
Can’t agree more. I constantly say we have not seen the blackberry of humanoids yet, and we are far away from the lovely thing we all keep in our pockets today. Agree the rate of change will also be very accelerated.
Mass adoption of home robotics is far off… much further than industrial
i hope people realize that NEO is the Motorola Dynatac of humanoid robots
they will get much better, smarter, faster, and cheaper. it will also happen much faster
the sci-fi future is here and it’s going to be glorious
@benjamin_bolte What is the highest level of assembly you will be getting from China? Or cutting out of supply chain entirely?
E.g. assembled limbs vs assembled actuators vs motors vs laminations
@parthingle_x There is no axial constraint on the outer races unless I’m missing that feature. Also is everything just press fit together? There will be some case of tolerances that makes the bearing inner races be free as well without knowing your tolerance stack.
The no fucking around bearing arrangement for DGBBs is fixed, free. One of the bearings is fixed on all four corners and the 2nd bearing is axially free on one of the races, that race should be a slip or transition fit with the housing/shaft.
If there is significant thermal effects to be expected you can make the interface with the free race to be a steel insert so the sliding contact is steel on steel.
Having the bearings actually preloaded by wave spring or some other compressible media is always a good idea :)
