LEGO Omnidirectional vehicle

It’s just for adults, considering how expensive it is.

This is lateral Lego building: Don't care about what a block is for, just what it does.

This is, without exaggeration, the coolest thing I’ve ever seen made from LEGO.

[@octopus9001]

What about green gecko workshop engines?

[@romanzatorski1309]

then you havent seen the rest of this genius' channel

[@Dmaster2k]

I mean, the fully functional and full size car made from technic is pretty damn amazing.

[@garrettquartararo201]

Someone made a working snake game. Like, a full on computer.

[@cgrind3000]

@@romanzatorski1309right, it’s like have you seen the fucking clock this guy built

[@Request_2_PANic]

Not only the coordinated movement, but the interlocking edges of the track panels is also satisfying.

[@freitchetsleimwor2406]

Plus, the aligned lever bases!

[@Epicdoge1091]

It reminds me of Nanobugs Those were a pain to disassemble sometimes

[@Nvidia_GeForce_RTX4090]

its so satisfying seeing them move

[@johanfolkesson5170]

Very clever way to get optimal spacing! The coordinated “dance” is a great demonstration.

[@mads_in_zero]

Giving each unit a number designation is such a stylish touch, very nice.

[@HenryKamp]

I absolutely love the orange details and all the steps make towards usability. Deiter Rams would be proud. Another excellent design!

[@mangefox]

Somehow you manage to exceed expectations every time. Amazing

[@msx80]

Now you have to find an use for 1000 levers without their bases😂

[@Bl4ckw0lf1]

Use those little one by one cubes with a dimpled hole on one side. Stick the lever inside, and cover up the back. That should give it a soft bounce barrier.

[@DCcopter]

[@MrHack4never]

Great Lever Contraption

[@BrickMachinesChannel]

Very nice, Akiyuki! Yet again, an excellent build!

[@DanielKjeldal]

Those four machines doing their little coordinated dance routine reminded me of this video I watch some years back of a Japanese University precision marching team, they moved with incredible precision and coordination according to the commands of their leader and it looks very similar to what has been achieved in this video. Extremely satisfying to watch.

[@TamiyaKC]

6:40 ~ amazing...

[@FJD333]

5:42. “I had a hard time achieving both movement speed and stopping accuracy” Because the rest of it was simple !! This is genius stuff

[@Fiolsthu95]

Akiyuki is a genius. His constructions are so aesthetically pleasing and mechanically interesting. Every time I think everything has been done, Akiyuki comes up with something new. I am in awe.

[@dracuul78]

What a great idea and excellent execution! I hadn't expected the movement to be that accurate and reliable. I watched the choreography at 6:40 with a big smile of amazement...

[@tomasullrich]

To say "well done" is a huge understatement. I am dying to see the final GBC. What a treat. Brilliant as always. Love it.

[@EmilMacko]

Absolutely beautiful yet again. Can't wait to see them in action in the ball contraption!

[@jonaszb7631]

Moving the tables around reminds me of these 3x3 puzzles where only one field is not "occupied" at a time and you slide the tiles around until they form an image.

[@Electroweak5]

This is seriously impressive. Very reminiscent of those automated pallet-moving robots used in massive warehouses.

[@rolar321]

Lego from Denmark, which I played with as a child. What you do, however, is no game. It's really impressive, what you do. Sometimes I fast forward movies on KZbin, but I watched this one, every second. Thanks!

[@rin_brick]

最高 細かい一つ一つにAkiyukiの素晴らしい組み方が見て取れる 物流のロボットみたいな動きしとる

[@waynesardullo2482]

Your designs are always out of this world. Just when I think I have seen it all... You tell us to hold your Beer....

[@jerelhenry3290]

This is by far the most genius level design I’ve seen done with Lego. Phenomenal work. You have definitely raised the bar.

[@davidf2281]

Incredible work, especially the diagonal arrangement for the tooth spacing.

[@d64d64]

Another fabulous build. Only way I could see this getting even better would be if the four vehicles had different capabilities on top side, and would co-operate to solve a task.

[@kaibuhler7559]

These things on a "great ball contraption" would be awesome

[@JBBrickFanatic]

You just kept taking it up a notch each minute of this video. Seeing them all in sync is AWESOME! I appreciate the subtitles too. Great work!

[@sforbs]

Your work is very impressive! Thanks for adding subtitles and explaining all of the details. It must be satisfying to have your vehicles mechanically locked to a coordinate system!

[@sloanlance]

This is a very cool vehicle. I think it could work pretty well using wheels on a smooth surface, too. It wouldn't be as precise, but it would be a little more flexible and have more freedom.

[@cgrind3000]

The opposing wheels would result in friction and hinder the movement I think.

[@BrickASMR777]

Creativity in Lego is unlimited. Your videos are amazing ❤

[@gustose6]

The little bow at the end was a nice touch

[@Diabl0pl]

Amazing work! That dance sequence was perfect!

[@baptistejanin9615]

I love how you keep coming up with ideas that give you challenges that seem more and more interesting and difficult.

[@zeruzio1345]

[@somagraphics]

This level of genius and creativity deserves a sub.

The synchronization of the 4 is amazing and my favorite part!

[@bellissimo4520]

This is one of the most impressive LEGO builds I have ever seen!! I guess the factory of the future will be built with LEGO.

[@BIKRAMMONDAL-j9r]

the coordinated movements is just insane

あきゆきさんの動画を見るたびに「レゴでこんなこと出来るんだ…！」と思うけど今回もすごかった。すごいワクワクしちゃう

[@lennyfelix98]

This is incredle, I never thought something like this could be achieved with Lego, you're a master of your craft

[@downtempoman]

I thought this is POC only with one robot moving different directions, but later with bigger area where was enough space for more units I just speechless. You have some many brilliant ideas.

[@EvexiansVideoworks]

Them all moving in unison is beautiful

Fascinating! It's so fluid, thank you for detailing the whole process to get to this point, that's what I find most interesting. I hope to be able to follow your instructions and do the programming!

[@willwhitehead9274]

one of the coolest things ever made from Legos

[@michaelrussell2181]

I've messed about with various Mindstorms sets in the past, all but selling my original NXT, this is wonderful, and look forward to seeing the instructions and code soon.

[@clickmaster2.035]

Incredibly clean and compact work as always. They are very satisfying to watch

[@KurzhaarBard]

The accuracy of the vehicle is mad impressive!

[@brinklebros7136]

That demonstration is so precise!

[@kummer45]

The level of sophistication is industrious. This is not longer a toy. This is strict programming, parametric architecture, mathematics, physics, coding, software engineering and robotics. This is clean class of advanced mechatronics. The Japanese culture only produces things like this. It is culture since the era of the Kabuki or even longer. Their comprehension of mechanical devices has more than 2000 years. Makes perfect sense seeing this. Tacitly he is speaking about arrangements and derangements of a sequence. It’s the Amazon grid bots extended to more degrees of freedom. This work is simply perplexing.

[@Squant]

That's cute, but people have been doing this all over the world for decades.

[@triplos05_27]

every day akiyuki uploads is a great day

[@T3chIdiot]

these move so smootly that it looks more like an anomation than a building tool; beautiful!

[@simmingk]

A very good idea to use the platform as the tool for assisting the motion of the vehicles.

[@Orionrobots]

Amazing work - and fitting it into that cube form factor too!

[@1337treats]

I love that this engineering is on par with cutting edge logistics/warehousing technology. I assume you’re planning on showcasing this at Lego ball meetups. It would be awesome, if your display had enough “floor space” to give a controller to the audience that gives control over a Lego figurine/tiny vehicle (maybe it could collect a dropped ball?). The automation vehicles are all performing a choreography to perform their function. They will choose different paths automatically to avoid the user-controlled craft, but are never interrupted. Modern fulfillment center tech, as far as I am aware, uses a radius to freeze robots. Probably best for the humans, but ongoing operations would be awesome.

[@DiegoDevPro]

Wow... Just an amazing design. Congratulations!!!
