I build things. Actuators , code, circuits, cloud, CAD - with AI doing the boring parts. If it can be prototyped, I’ve broken it twice and shipped it anyway.
@zobotics@yeokch I partially agree. The AI models are increasingly moving closer to compensate for the issues in actuators. More companies would want to work with actuators makers.
@zobotics@yeokch The tons of robotic companies I spoke to just said they use what others are using 🥲. It pretty much is cliche. Except few like apptronik or boston dynamics who would want to make their own actuators.
@yeokch@zobotics How's the weight compared to current generation of planetary geared actuators? I understand the impact resistance will be strength but are trade offs too far? Why isn't it common with robotic companies?
@theermann This is so cool! How does the cooling work? With all that fur over the actuators and frame - it looks like an interesting engineering problem.
