This is the kind of thing companies try to build… well done!

[@pofrani]

What are you talking about??? Boston literally started it all!

[@orangehatmusic225]

@@pofrani They actually didn't build the first one.. but you can believe that if you want.

[@SirWifHat]

Boston dynamics started build bigdog in 1995 and was finished in 2005. They were maybe not the first robot dog but definetly the first of its kind and best.

[@orangehatmusic225]

@@SirWifHat No internet noobie. Try 1939 at the World Fair where the first animatronic dog was showcased.

[@Ifortgor]

@@orangehatmusic225Bro, who’s gonna know such an obscure fact as that. That’s also completely irrelevant compared to the innovations Boston dynamics made.

[@norkshit]

the whole time i watched this i kept thinking, "imagine how much this guy could achieve if he had his own professional lab with state of the art equipment." Wonderful job man!

[@mikelange564]

My man, he can print his own equipment :)

[@docfarl]

Young man, you're an electro-mechanical engineer of the highest calibre! I hope they recognize that and reward you appropriately in your day job.

[@marmosetman]

No. He should start his own company. He should let his creativity flow.

[@JohnnyKidder]

We eventually are going to need robot dog shows/competitions with the amount of these projects that are popping up

[@NakedSageAstrology]

Absolutely incredible. Now with Claude 3 I feel like we can all build anything.

[@klausnielsen1537]

Having watched you stride through the progressions here with TOPS I thought many times about James Bruton and his development over the years. But that does not take anything away from the fact that what you have achieved is mind blowing! Great engineering and great videos. Thank you for entertaining, sharing and explaining. I loved the ride! 😊

[@ProofBenny]

Dude in pajamas builds a killer robot. what a world we live in!

[@Delphir]

you can put a polarized filter on the camera to get rid of reflections on the glasses

[@AerialWaviator]

Very impressed with your actuator design. This project is definitely TOPS! So much learning and application accomplished across mechanical, electrical and computer engineering. Well done! Look forward to seeing your next project.

[@TheSelfUnemployed]

I built a tiny robo dog using 9g servos and the gait sequence was definitely the most difficult part. I attempted using inverse kinematics but it was awhile ago and i was still very green when it came to engineering and coding. This makes me want to take a shot at attempt number 2 and see how much better i can make it. Thanks for the inspiration. Crazy nice project brother.

[@Frank_G_Finster]

This is by all means impressive. Thank you for sharing and all the best for your future projects!

[@BernardSandler]

I loved thus project from beginning to end. It’s a surprisingly agile beasty! I’m so glad you finished it. I think ultimately you would’ve been disappointed if you hadn’t. Engineering is iterative. Building resilience in yourself is as much a part of the project as building the robot. I really look forward to your next build.

[@samuelsantos1181]

I FOUND KZbin GOLD, FINALLY CONTENT ABOUT ROBOTICS! Now I will train my English by watching videos like these and seeing content about what I like most. Thanks for the video, great work bro!

[@Ed_Aylward]

I love Aaed 's channel. Unlike a lot of other channels he shares his hard work with the community. It's so awesome he chooses to be a giant, so that others can stand up on his shoulders. Bravo Aaed, Bravo!

[@Davepotnoodle]

This was brilliant. I often click on stuff like this fully expecting to skip through... but I watched from start to finish. Liked and subbed because I really want to see how this progresses!

[@jono9717]

Thank you so much for completing this build! I can definitely see it mustn't have been easy but you stuck it out and got a really impressive result. I'll be anticipating your future projects!

[@danclark8745]

This series has been awesome. Really enjoyed watching. Thanks for your content, look forward to seeing more in the future!

[@davidberry8463]

Great job! My students are going to love your videos. This will be create inspiration and motivation.

[@thetomster7625]

I usually don't care that much about robotics, but this is such high quality content and equally high quality engineering, that I'm simply impressed.

[@superhans3717]

One of the few times my KZbin recommendations gives me gold. Subscribed and about to binge.

[@adamchelchowski]

Man, I laughed so hard at this film! And the intro, gorgeous! I really enjoyed your work and effort presented. Keep up and good luck!

[@purrzival]

why in the world is this channel not blowing up, what a great video!

[@abhikhubby]

Incredible work dude! Amazing that you Designed, 3D Printed & Programmed it all yourself!

[@beautifulsmall]

Teensy 4.1 and CAN bus, good choice. Looks like you sized everything well and got the drive torque ratios right. No IMU! wow well done. James B is a hero. Congratulations on a succesful outcome.

[@mirjalol.bahodirov]

You’re doing so good and you aren’t giving me to sleep. Just respect, keep it up!

[@garrukapex6693]

insanely cool project and comedic presentation style? instant sub :)

[@goodbasic6486]

It would be one thing if it was just an amazing home brew robotics project; that would already be amazing. But the production quality and organization of the footage, workspace, presentation of information is stellar! Well done good sir. I give up KZbin now. You win.

[@miguelroberts-vallejo7819]

I love the intro man! the whole "ive been working on this project for months", tops almost dropped lol nice save! awesome content!

[@jameskabagnut8103]

this is certainly amazing sir Aaed. With this, I feel motivated to finish my Robot dog also.

[@BPJJohn]

A more affordable Spot that you can build yourself is a noble goal. Keep it going! 👍

[@ASH-ep3td]

this is a really impressive project. I'd love to see a series of videos documenting new changes and parts.

[@stiLLa2000]

im really impressed with the smooth movement of the robot!

[@JJs_playground]

I can't even understand how one human can make this. *Unbelievable work.*

[@erk_viewer]

The open design and colors looks awesome!

[@irkedoff]

I'm happy that you finished it. It looks great.

[@bricogeekcom]

Really impressive work Aaed and also really great funny video to watch, keep it up!

[@amogusenjoyer]

Man that robot completely destroys me at dancing... Great project, its surprisingly smooth!

[@TurboPotato]

absolute TOP class my man. This is gonna go viral

[@SchimShady12]

Just waiting for your channel to blow up to say I was there in the beginning. Impressive work!

[@ericblenner-hassett3945]

Nice project and amazing progress. One thing to look into is offset lobe belt tensioner. Having a center pivot offset from the center and bearings to allow the belt to be pressurised ( kept tight against the gear teeth ) while still moving, would keep tension and allow changing the tension should the belts stretch. Keep it up, you are almost done at the design stage.

[@tetie_]

This is way too underrated, keep it up

[@tommythorn]

Very impressive. It obviously represent an enormous amount of work, but the end result looks totally brilliant and the motion is very smooth. However my favorite part is the actuators. Finally a robot project that isn't just using hobby servos! I do think this project would benefit from a lot more feedback sensors.

[@TheEvertw]

Congratulation with this achievement! This took a significant amount of creativity, skill and determination!

[@ravendarkcloud]

Amazing work, just keep handling the the problems and make it get better. Design, test, improve, that is how great things come to life.

[@z0mb13h0rd3]

I am super impressed once again at the content and humor of your videos. If you were in the NE, I’d gladly help you with certain shop skills and items. But I do love what accomplish with minimal tools. In no way should you be disappointed in the result, but rather feel accomplished in what you’ve done. It is a stepping stone to better things. Rome wasn’t built in a day, we didn’t get to the moon first launch, and some people think the world is flat. Look forward to what you have planned next.

[@cho4d]

i am seriously impressed! you and james burton are on another level when it comes to 3d printing and robots!

[@redles4212]

I noticed you using a wrench to get those bearings in, I've found that using a quick grip clamp is really useful for pressing bearings into parts without scraping anything. Amazing video as always my guy, I learn a lot from these videos.

[@darellldark]

I am so lucky YT recommended me your video! Amazing project and great sense of humor Good luck in next projects and, I hope, one day we will see TOPS v2!

[@Junkboy888]

Just got done watching one of James video and saw this on the the list. Nice build and what a horrible sound it made when the belt slips. Sound like my Knees going down the steps. Well worth Subscribing.

[@maz3808]

This is the kind of videos I want KZbin to recommend for me.

[@OZtwo]

Very cool! can't wait for version 2 and even more your other projects!

[@alfonsoPina]

If all the dog did was dance, I would buy 2 of them. Good job! I love seeing people do stuff like this. strengthen those inner skillz!

[@joetkeshub]

Awesome! You earned a new subscriber (as you wrote it in the code ;). I wish that young people from my beloved island Madagascar get inspired by your work. Thanks a lot Musa. God bless you.

[@John-gw3mj]

Amazing project, thanks for sharing it. I'm looking forward to what's next! On the note of pint time estimates: I recently switched to Orca Slicer and found its time estimates to be pretty good as long as you don't have accelerations set above your printer's firmware cap.

[@mrschnider6521]

This young man certainly has a very bright future ahead of him in engineering. Its absolutely beautiful and i love the color scheme, you even added a touch of gold. I never had seen someone use a bldc motors for this kind of thing, I gotta take a closer look to see how that works, thats going to be a very fast dog. You should use these amazing skills to try to contribute some ideas to the FGC-9 MK3, the Mark2 has been out for such a long time now and there is no mk3 yet.

[@MiniMasterpiece1]

Hi, I love ur Videos so much and also bought 90kv Eaglepower motors. I have got a question about the motors specifications because the datasheet says that they need a 12s lipo and in peak 22 Amps. So how can you power 12 of them with 22.2V and 5.2 Amps. Maybe that’s a stupid question but I would be very happy about an answer.

[@manu_thind]

Other videos on building D.I.Y quad robots also on youtube but not with much detailed processed like this, well done.

[@LauLauHip]

Woah I just found this video on my front page and I gotta say that your channel is really underrated

[@neilruedlinger4851]

I thought I wasn't hungry or thirsty and thought I could skip dinner, but after I saw the robot leg kick the can of drink into your hand and somewhen else in the video you said the word "kebab", I ended up not skipping dinner.... On a more serious note, thank you for showing the process of Engineering Research and Development, warts and all. I've seen too many videos where they don't bother showing the entire process, and instead show a squeaky clean final design, all nice and shiny. Giving non-Engineering people the impression that Engineers can design good products/devices/test articles/proof of concept models without any failures to guide the multitude of learning curves.

[@Tage-Labs]

What can we say...seriously impressed !!! Amazing work.

[@Simon_Rafferty]

You've done very well to get this far! I know first hand, how hard it is to make a workable quadruped. If you can overcome the desire to build something else with all the motors etc, I'd like to see you have another go - as you've already achieved the hardest part.

[@mrmayor7828]

Thank you @KZbin for suggesting this channel.

[@Tardvark]

*Videos like this are why I love youtube*

[@lukasovysilenosti]

This is the first video I watched from you and man you are such a skilled guy! Not only you were able to design all the parts, but you also made them and programmed the robot! It would be amazing to make a downsized version of this using miniature stepper motors. This was very inspiring. I have a 3D printer and solidworks myself but after spendig all week at my engineering job, I kinda always want a bit of a brake from the computers so I dont do many fun projects, mostly stuff for friends and family if anybody needs something. Still I kinda wanna make my own robot now!

I'm so glad I found your channel, I need to start 3d printing again and follow along with this!

[@I.no.ah.guy57]

I definitely could tell that you were designing it very similarly to James Bruton's, but you didn't just download his files and code so I give you props for that, and I'm sure he does too. Great work, can't wait to see what else you create!

[@geepytee]

I'm also building my own quadruped, your actuators look awesome!
