Insane Balancing Robot

[@sciencechannel]

Everyone knows balancing cubes are the first step toward Skynet.

[@harimp10]

Sky net rulezzzzz..yeah

To jump from a balancing robot to the "End Of Humans" is an illogical leap. Unlike the cubli's leap- which is entirely logical! I'm so grateful that you had Gaja explain the brakes. I want to build something like this, but had no indication there were brakes involved.

[@solosailor222]

Subbed!! Missed you from Prototype This days!!!

[@TheVaign]

Why is this channel's production quality so high with so few subscribers?

[@WLDLNG]

Can someone explain what provides the force for it to stand on one corner? I don't get it.

[@londonnight937]

What motor model is used?

[@walexia]

I'd like to take a look at his control equations.

[@BButcher12]

+Solar Gaze first grade physics m8

Das ist derselbe Prinzip und sehr ähnlich mit eine anderen Erfindung aus dem Jahr 1998 - Deutschland (sehen Sie im DPMA Patentdatenbank nach: DE000029812449U1 - Antikippkraftvorrichtung mit Antilenkträgheitssystem für Fahrzeuge und Anhänger aller Art). Damals wurde diese als Kipp-Schutz-Vorrichtung für Fahrzeuge ausgedacht.

[@solosailor222]

Yes, scanning old patents and modernizing the presentation is becoming too common.

[@jjab99]

That was really cool and very surprising what can be done by this small robot.

[@armystrong6920]

The correct sized version of this inside of a shell that looks like the Hellraiser puzzle box would be awesome.

[@TheM4rtianGamer]

finally, the companion cube will be able to MOVE!!!!

Actually this would likely be used for stabilizing satellites in orbit. It behaves just like the CMG's on satellites do.

[@oriole8789]

Using braking torque as a form of stored energy to instantly rotate the cube is pretty clever.. :D I bet you could integrate this concept into many unrelated devices.. brake wear being the only potential issue but it could be solved on a case by case basis.. thanks for posting!

[@rossrogan]

I was so amazed the cubbies cube I decided to buy one for my son. I finally received it but it only has directions in Chinese. Can anyone help me with directions on how to program it? I have connected the usb to my laptop but don’t know what drivers and programming interface I need to install.

[@robstrunk0914]

Definitely a better humanity. Although there will be massive growing pains. Once technology hits a point where most, if not all our needs are met from independent machines, we can begin to truly thrive as a species and pursue enlightenment.

[@jarjar561]

In other words, eventually we will all become a bunch of lazy fucks, :P

[@Jogeta5]

Yeah, a Resource Based Economy.

[@MarkShaneHansen]

DarkYogurt We're already lazy fucks, we'll just be able to be who we really are. But more seriously, just because we won't have to do all the same jobs anymore, doesn't mean we'll all be lazy. Lazy means unwilling to use energy. In this possible scenario of a future where we have machines doing all our work, we'll either use our energy elsewhere (hobbies for example), or there's simply nothing to do because machines are doing everything (which means we're unable, not unwilling).

[@danielsetzer3766]

so where are the 4 episodes?

[@thomasnorthen4244]

Fantastic, a stabilizer back pack for people who need walkers now?

[@SkyBoiBoiz]

any idea how to do the one dimensional cubli "babies". kinda need help.

[@DominoSixO]

When you reinvent the wheel and everyone loses their minds, but that has been used in satellites over many years.

[@roombacats8410]

I love the comment below "It's just a great demonstration of Physics really. Nothing good or bad about it really, just creativity in a more sophisticated manner.". This is commonly heard at nearly any new revolutionary idea, the computer, telephone, GPS, texting instead of calling, microwave ovens, phased array radio transmission,...How embarrassing! How about kinetic energy weapon steering satellite to satellite. automated docking ISS to Space X dragon capsule. precision orientation self guiding "floating hand tools" for manufacturing, 360 degree auto-sentry gun aiming system. Some of these are scary but obvious options. Any rapid tracking and precision orientation application, Awesome.

[@Jason-su6gp]

Where can i buy it?

[@LT-nx7bi]

cubli.bigcartel.com/

[@pedestal7studios]

They should try building a ball around it.

[@abishaijesh7529]

for military

[@shouldiupload24]

to the end it humans

[@johnromeobernabat7837]

I think if we improve this technology we are not that far in having star shaped homes or cars. Inverted Eiffel tower will be a norm.

[@federico0439]

2:46 end of human? For a balancing cube? Wtf?

[@octtobeanie380]

really the end of humans form a balancing box ?

[@ryccoh]

Where's Raffaeolo

[@randomguyontheinternet6885]

How cute

[@glorious_help]

Partner with Google and they will make robotic ninja killers

[@paulhendrix8599]

Holy shit, the question you asked at the end is beyond ridiculous. It has nothing to do with ANYTHING you covered in the (granted: interesting) short video (with barely interesting vlog content in the beginning).

[@mikegLXIVMM]

Today's word is Reaction Wheel.

[@Debraj1978]

2:47 = End of humanity? Can this not be used on Segway, or self balaning cycles or prosthetics for someone? End of the video was trashy.

[@brettyboy678]

Better humanity totally... But to be sure we should have fail safes

[@krnedwag]

making something that can out think you, out run you , out evolve you and then expecting to be its master is not a good idea. bigger brains placed us on top of the food chain............NOT A GOOD IDEA

[@MarkShaneHansen]

Ricardo Heathe Ya'll need Jesus!

[@lionelpotatoe1048]

second yes!

[@SCOTTSTALLARDBERMUDA]

How about filming MORE of the actual subject (the balancing cube) and a little less of the talking man. Play his dialogue over cube footage maybe? This footage needs to be not only informative but entertaining and talking heads are rarely that! Focus on the subject cube since that's what it was all about to begin with.
