Clone Hand Teleoperation V2

Teleoperation of Clone Hand V2: catching a ball with rules-based joint controller
Clone Torso video demo very soon

[@Roger_P.]

It is so much quieter than before. It is easy to imagine the use in real life.

[@allissun]

It is smoother and much more responsive than just a year ago. Good job, I am looking forward to the future of this project.

[@hyperturttle7574]

There's so much potential with this! I could totally see this revolutionizing prosthetics, for example! Keep it up!

[@yakirfrankoveig8094]

Not quite usefull for prosthetics since there has to be a pump on you to run it while batteries can fit pretty much any form factor a pump cant

[@mandoy2080]

@@yakirfrankoveig8094 that's the case for most prosthetics

Awesome! With all my heart I encourage you guys! If robots can tidy up, do dishes, and do laundry it will literally add years to my life not doing tedious chores.

[@Cityhunter9580]

Agree 👍

you wont be able to afford such robot :)

[@CreepyMemes]

@@theAristocrap true and people who can afford that, already pay other people do to it for them

[@Fury9er]

@@theAristocrap This is true but there was a time that a mobile telephone was beyond the means of most people. A home help android distrubuted on a monthly contract or hire purchase scheme may be a route to supplying this high technology acessible.

[@theAristocrap]

@@Fury9er People can buy a roomba to clean their house and a washing machine already washes their clothes. A complicated robot (arm) won't be used to do such menial tasks when simpler machines can already do that.

[@poprostujotube1880]

First I read teleoperation as teleportation and I was like "what the hell they figured out teleportation before making a fully functional robot?" 😅

[@mandoy2080]

This is amazing. You guys deserve a bigger budget

[@youdungoofed1]

Glad the project is still alive

[@animeara96]

Gorgeous and smooth, noticeable improvement over time despite the problem of weight and size

[@ezram.4484]

That is amazing, unsettling and terrifying at the same time.

[@delsings]

Just marvelous to see this progression! I'm excited for the future

[@Nani-lq3zk]

I respect you guys for doing this project

[@lostmarimo]

it's times like these when you realize just how advanced the human hand is

[@sebastianharrison6118]

You guys have come so far!!!

[@iszmsolutions]

I have been following this development for years and the controls of the robotic arm with an actual hand is awesome. Please do testing on writing using a pen, play the piano, typing on a keyboard or opening a door. Just doing everyday life.

[@LightSocerGamesBR]

Soo cool, the improvements are noticeable

[@anthonyrepetto3474]

the uncanny valley is in fact a vast chasm with winding caves of madness and horror... dear god - or can I even say such a thing when it is now so clear that none could make such abominations? success! at what cost? because I would totally buy one...

[@yohannt305]

You’re assuming you’d be the one buying robots and not robots buying humans. Time will tell. Exciting times ahead

[@Incetarum]

​@@yohannt305robots would never buy humans, it would take centuries for humans to achieve the ability to even come close to replicating consciousness. Anyone with common sense knows that. This robot right here is for basic movement, it doesnt have the capability to even do simple tasks atm, and when it has a body, the only th8ng it will do is follow your orders. Terminator will NEVER exist, sorry fam.

[@jordentaylor8292]

Wow you guys made so much progress! This is incredible!

[@patman0250]

Crazy how big tech aren't even looking at this because, well basically they're probably jealous because they're not the ones who came up with this brilliant idea. This is much more advanced than further ahead of any robotic limbs I've ever seen. It's something that direct thought about as well, to copy existing human physiology attempting to mechanically engineer what already exists. No need to reinvent concepts that work very well already. So many people trying to make robots as realistic as possible and failing, not realizing they literally have a blueprint in their own bodies. Simple as this guy trying to reverse engineer would already exists, we have the blueprint to all the muscle movements nerve endings.

[@grimjhaixus]

Practice on a hotdog. Seriously. Its looking good no one wants any mysterious accidents.

Gonna be some PREEM chrome in the coming future

Agree choom, gotta hope no gonks like the Scavs try to klep it.

[@fizkallnyeilsem]

Cant waint till the next decade in this proj advancements of yours, as much as i fear terminator-esque future, i still remain optimistic in what good this could bring

[@CloneRobotics]

Clone is the only company that builds their robots entirely from polymers. No terminator scenario possibile because it will be dead after one shot

[@dwsel]

Serious question what happened with the funding the last time? Was that mistrust to the platform and exchange rate or an internal thing? I was really interested and you backed away with vague explanation. I would still like to invest, but now I'm slightly concerned.

[@CloneRobotics]

Internal thing

[@dwsel]

@@CloneRobotics Have you sorted it out? Any chance to invest in your work in the future? Nie mam jakichś powalających kwot ale bardzo chętnie wyłożyłabym kilka tys na Wasze akcje.

[@elementdavid85]

Cant wait to get one so it can flip people off and it can hold my beer!

[@chebypattern]

Simulated muscle in the prosthetic limb is something I always wanted to see be made for the people that've lost theirs. Robotic spinny things are cool, but this has more appeal to my personal opinion of what a limb replacement should be.

[@Mallchad]

Whoa. It's getting super responsive now. Looks like it has done dead spots in the middle of travel that lack precision. Have you looked into a constraint that goes around the fingers like where the the finger has stuff to brace the finger muscles against?

[@CloneRobotics]

We investigated this problem and try to solve it in the next models

[@Mallchad]

@@CloneRobotics Oh okay cool. Super exciting. Thanks for the answer

[@kindaovermyhead]

[@kingcatmemes]

Making history man good work

[@apieceofstring]

Definitely has a Drone Host vibe. Does this mean we may soon have mute indentured meta-sentient stalkers to fold our laundry and do dishes? Sounds intriguing!

[@danbellian5617]

Would it add utility to amputees if the pose was mirrored? I’m wondering if the capacity to have symmetrical hand motions might improve quality of life in performing certain tasks like carrying large objects, pushing a mower, or carrying grocery bags. (Things that don’t require two hands to be doing different things)

[@lualdiz]

Are these the electrically actuated muscles like shown in a previous video or still pneumatic ones that require a compressor?

[@CloneRobotics]

Pressure source required. Same as for humans

[@403M4K]

Fantástico, será buenísimo ver completo el cyborg en algún futuro

[@TheRealityWarper08]

The pinky and ring are a tiny bit slow, but besides that, it seems to run faster than any other teleoperated hands I've seen! Impressive wrist control, too! 💜

[@ghoulbuster1]

One step closer to the machine spirit.

[@pikambal1105]

okay but imagine showing this to a random peasant or king from like a thousand years ago

Pressure regulator

[@patriciac.a.1614]

[@gillanalafoginis6018]

Just listened to Lex Friedmans podcast that focused on Neuralink. Would be incredible to one day be able to use similar technologies for amputees and disabled people.

[@TheInfamousDope]

It will happen. I can clearly see an amputee operating a robotic prosthetic limb without using the controller glove in a near future

[@DevRajyaguru-lx8pi]

One thing I noticed is that the folding of fingers look easier and faster while opening them takes a sec to adjust in proper position. Is there any way you can set a neutral position of fingers when opened and treat other positions as +/- compared to them?

That's cool! As far as I know, you use hydraulic muscles for actuation, but what sort of encoders you use to determine positron of fingers? It seems like yiu got pretty advanced on it and don't have some clasical encoders or alike.

Clone now is a humanoid robot company but when our synthetic limbs technology becomes mature we will do prosthesis too

[@Fpvfreaky]

Cool. You have made some very good progress 👍🏼😁

is the lag / low refresh rate because of the sensory part on the input or because of the muscles of the arm?

hmmm would it be bad if you went with a larger size and faster locomotion? i mean this is impressive but what if we went larger and not so human size.

[@CloneRobotics]

I think human size is important to build androids. Androids should be dexterous

[@support_mage]

@@CloneRobotics I love your idea of fibres as a substitute to muscles. this is what I imagine synthetic arms should look like. I also wonder if it would be possible to have this similar design working with pneumatic fluids in tubes to replicate blood veins and some sort of material to substitute muscle masses.

[@user-js2pz9xu1y]

This is reaaly nice work. I have question about the controller. How is it achived for the tracking? Using Open sim? or Deep neural network?

[@CloneRobotics]

Glove movements translate to pressure on the muscles

[@divandorianpauccarchura9398]

Hello, good question. Could you make artificial muscles with electrohydralic actuators? HASEL muscles that work with electricity with contraction or HALVE from low-voltage soft robotics; You could do it in the shape of an accordion, the electrodes could be interspersed and generate contraction it would no longer be with a pneumatic or hydraulic system I could do it since they are economical and silent and generate force and speed

[@CloneRobotics]

Main problem of this king of muscle is their fragility and form factor
