[@balub778]

I would love to have a robotics course made by you.

[@lukalicina8230]

Definetley! But please make an affordable version too. Lots of broke engineering students watching you bro! Keep it up!

[@Wyndu777]

i agree.

[@alargebeaver]

I was just thinking the same thing.

[@earmit007]

100% would take this course!

[@LordVautier]

I would love an accredited course too!

[@Kromerax]

You should definitely make a robotics course. I just got into 3d printing as a hobbyist and I was contemplating making a desktop robot arm, but wasn't sure where to get started!

[@ScorpionM203]

Cool! A desktop robot arm could also be a vacuum chamber experiment assistant arm perhaps

[@steamboatmodel]

Back in the 80's I was learning CNC and the college had a CNC Machining Center and a CNC lathe set up with a small industrial robot positioned between them. One of the assignments was to transfer parts between the machines. The Lathe used flood coolant so the door had to be closed when the coolant was on , Unfortunately the interlock for the door open/close position was not always reliable and a number of times the Robot tried to remove/place parts in the lathe with the door closed. The results were usually a bent or broken End effect wrist. which were very expensive. We managed to acquire a set of drawings for the wrist and managed to write a program for the five axes mill to machine them.

[@vectoralphaSec]

I studied Computer Science and have gotten into Web Development, but i would love to one day do robotics. Its so cool.

[@usamazaheer3109]

Why wait i can teach u

[@kkrobertson1]

As someone who worked in automation. I always told people robots are great at repeatability (automation) while humans are great at (detectability) spotting irregularities.

[@chaseing_chase]

I graduated back in May with a B.S. in Robotics Engineering and now have a decent paying job working on what i enjoy for the most part. I get giddy about Robotic arms and being able to work with them. Some of my other coworkers dont find them as enjoyable because of the applications involved. Im more of the technology sided person and they like the diesel engines type stuff.

[@Nicholas-sv9df]

I used to work here as a student. It's a very cool place and I'm grateful for the experience I got. Was really exciting to see this video!

[@colebarton8279]

I’m a mechanical engineering student who’s doing my school’s robotics track. Your channel fascinates me and I’d love to see a robotics course! All of us ME’s need a little coding and electrical help sometimes…

[@asmrfactory9056]

I know sometimes it doesn’t matter but as a black man about to turn 18. It warms my heart and also gives me inspiration to see another black person in this type of industry. You have no idea

[@Ratkill]

AAGH you communicate so well. I don't know what it is, but some people just understand how to put ideas and concepts into other peoples brains, and Jeremy is one of the best. Its ALWAYS a good watch

[@kevinmcelhinney]

A robotics course would be fantastic. I love how you take the time to explain even the things that would seem simple.

[@Davidmorehouse1991]

Currently in school for mechatronics, your videos are an amazing source of immersion for me. The world would benefit from a course in robotics from you.

[@whitneydesignlabs8738]

Thanks for sharing, Jeremy. I am currently working on a project that involves a small commercial robot arm acquired from our local scrap yard. It uses stepper motors and encoders. I am working on adapting Chis Annin's AR4 code for my use. I also built a mobile platform for it using Hoverboard BLDC wheel motors. I wrote some code to take pulse/dir signals and translate it into pwm, brake & dir signals for the BLDC drivers. Vision and other sensors are in the future, also possibly integrating an LLM on a Pi5, (when it arrives). Main goals on this project are low cost, re-use/recycle, modularity, and adaptability. I want it to become a general purpose household robot that other people can replicate to some degree.

[@zenithprobe]

You're an amazing teacher and an incredible engineer! Usually, one has to choose between the two, but you manage both with relative ease. Awesome video!

[@MrCaps-sq4bk]

A robotic course would be interesting. As a student in college who didn't meet my school's requirements for engineering. Being able to learn the fundamentals of what makes a robots a robot would be fun to learn. Excellent video, I enjoyed the explanation for robotics and made it intuitive to learn. 👍

[@colbullsigh6823]

I LOVE your sense of humor! Most of the "nerds" I know don't even know how to tell a joke, but you make your presentations very interesting! Thank God that He gave you such a BRAIN!

[@N33sWorkshop]

Amazing video, I just made a KUKA robot programming 1 course and I get a lot of what you're explaining. But the way you present the information, gets me excited about this sector.

[@majorkuso6720]

definitely agree with others a robotics course would be awesome. you could go from arduino up to ros2 with object recognition.

[@hinkleaj1]

An online robotics course taught by you would be excellent!

[@creative-fa2003]

This could probably make one of the finest final year project. Great Engineering 💯

[@divineanyanwu3452]

This has been very insightful. A mechanical engineer here, working in the energy industry, but is looking at making that transition into Robotics, and this has been very insightful to get good industrial knowledge of some of the challenges designers and engineers have to overcome to get a robot perform tasks. Would definitely be looking forward to that online course. Thanks for Sharing Jeremy

[@turkhi]

Every time I see one of your thumbnails in my KZbin notifications it's like Christmas😊

[@EliteAutomation]

I appreciate you making this. Keep making an impact. Maybe one day we can collaborate on something. Keep up the hard work and adding value to the engineering community.

[@sceneryj]

Hi Jeremy. A robotics course would be fantastic. I’ve just turned 40 and I’m currently studying for a robotics degree through distance learning. As someone who has gone through starting out in a career before (I did my first degree in graphic design and worked in advertising for 15 years), I know what a huge difference there is between being a student and actually working in a field. So practical content and discussions about real-world projects would be invaluable. Either way though, thanks for sharing so much info already. All the best.

[@uniaddict]

I for one would love to have a course on robotics with example problems that we can solve including using software (python would be awesome as it’s open source and easily accessible). I’m a rocket engineer that works with robotic arms in manufacturing but I have a very high level understanding of the kinematic and programming that is involved in them. I’m working on some home projects now but the software is my hang up right now!

[@shlomster6256]

GREAT video. I think the camera and people changes make for a more authentic voice. Super.

[@hagopminassian1778]

Thank you for the amazing introduction, the light gate is also called light curtains and it’s one of the most important safety standards in the industry.

[@justcarcrazy]

26:20 Paramount's Mwari aircraft is CNC manufactured straight from digital models, except for the composite panels and some hand-rolled sheet metal parts. Ironically, this is presenting a certification issue because none of the manufacturing or assembly information exists on paper - it's all in the CAD viewer, hence authorities are interpreting this as "no drawings"...

[@scottrodriguez1408]

A robotics course from you would be more than awesome!

[@fastindy]

I work at NIAR's Full Scale Structural Test Lab. I was super excited to see this!

[@welilejiba316]

I would certainly take up the robotics course. your work is very helpful to me as a home-based maker.

[@douglaslundell8316]

Fantastic video! I am a Mechanical Engineer for a custom machine builder, they explained my job perfectly. Just my job is to perform research and design a fully operational production machine at the same time 😅

[@cogzoid]

So glad I found your channel. I'm learning so much about robots. Can't wait to watch the rest of your back catalog.

[@waltherhoffman6310]

Sir, your introduction to robotics is perhaps the most nuanced and intricate that I've observed on KZbin. I'm an electronics engineer with a specialization in VSIL technology and am currently working at a government-sanctioned startup in New Delhi with expertise in MOSFET chips. I did not pursue a career in Mechanical engineering nor pursue robotics on account of my distaste for mechanics, however, I've found robotics to be fascinating in recent years, and I wonder if it's too late to learn.

[@slaydenmartin3184]

You should definitely make that robotics course! All your vids are fascinating and I’d love to see you go more into detail with these systems!

[@mattchesebrough4050]

Glad to find your channel. Thanks for putting this video together. I look forward to exploring your channel. All the best.

[@OakwoodMachineWorks]

A course by you sounds awesome! I bought an Epson Vt6L about a year ago, and have been learning how to use that (with a lot of help from a local integrations company). It's been really fun learning more about it, so getting more into the technical side would be awesome.

[@ctfernandez3762]

I am with other subscribers interested in a course in robot building course. I like your style and that is important to me in visual-audible learning. Kudos

[@enobishop1419]

Never really put my attention to the things you're talking about about but I am finding it much more fascinating... looking forward to more of your content

[@SirCarlosMusicBMI]

I Love How you teach me so many things. You’re an amazing person. Thank you for all of your videos. Blessings, Carlos ✝️🙏❤️😊🇺🇸

[@devalpatel4097]

Thanks for the great information regarding the Robotics. I am a fresh graduate from Mechanical engineering with, now, an year of experience in industry and my interest in Manufacturing, Robotics and Automation. I have watched your series on Jarvis 2.0 which also provides great knowledge about robotics. As you mentioned, course on robotics would be a great help to fresh entry level job seekers fresh graduates in Mechanical/Electrical/Computer/Mechatronics, etc. Engineering. In short, it would be great idea to create structured course content on robotics which includes all aspect of designs including mechanical, electrical, and computer/software engineering (Designing, building and operating a robot from scratch).

[@SoCalFreelance]

The FANUC M-2000iA is one of the biggest and most impressive industrial robot arms ever made able to move 2300kg (5070lbs) over a large area. Think of the stress on all the joints moving that kind of mass.

[@runrickyrun157]

I wish more people gave your videos a view. This is really good content. Thank you!

[@Danny-fs1hk]

Thank God for the Google algorithm putting this video in my feed! Jeremy just gained a new sub

[@EABuilder]

Congrats man, you are using the KZbin format and platform at its best to share ur knowledge. You should make edutainment YT courses as well, cause these are for sure robotics mini courses.

[@busiwaliuma3658]

Very interesting and insightful. A robotics course would definitely be a great initiative

[@mmi5833]

Loving this from OAKLAND California ❤

[@orchestra4841]

You should build a course, you're a very good engineer and I as well as many other people would love for you to be our teacher. You have a lot of experience that I and many other people do not have. You're videos are a great introduction, they get me asking the right questions, but nothing is a better teacher than experience. Having an expert (like yourself) teach a noob (like me) would greatly accelerate the learning path for me and other potential engineers. I think you'd be doing the world a great benefit if you passed on your knowledge with a course. But that's just my two cents, videos are great, thanks.

[@unsanitizedbabywipes6154]

Thanks Jeremy! Coming from a not so fortunate country, I can at least gain a virtual tour on R&D facilities, this size, about automations.

[@gerritgraafland4410]

i also used a ABB IRB4600 40KG with ABB Safemove2 and the Sick S3000 Laser scanner and a TCP force sensor to create a cobot out off a big industrial robot for my employer , it was a fun project to do. it all runs on profisafe over profinet (Siemens) with a Simatic s7-1215F Safety PLC to get the whole system to performance level D (PLr D). The robot is used to mechanicaly clean baking moulds for a big pancake/toastercake line with 160 double moulds

[@garysmith6073]

I would love to see you create a robotics course. I teach robotics and automation and I watch many of you videos. Great stuff.

[@karthikeyan_PL]

Love to join your robotics course , Thanks Jeremy for this video!

[@VENOMG54]

Skynet, Cyberdine and the Machines have been here for a while. We as the resistance must understand the science of our potential allies and or enemy 😉

[@kevinetheridge6153]

Robotics course would be pretty cool. An excellent idea for something to sell to schools as well, I would think.

[@bearsstuff]

I drive by that building often. Never knew what was inside. Very cool video.

[@Arthur-ue5vz]

Thanks for sharing your journey with us! 😊

[@13lacle]

You should see the new papers that just came out. They might change your introduction to robotics part, though it will still apply to the original style of hand coded robots. The new papers are for Google's RT-X and Microsoft/OpenAI's GPT-4V ( "Open X-Embodiment: Robotic Learning Datasets and RT-X Models" and "The Dawn of LLMs:Preliminary Explorations with GPT-4V(ision)" respectively). The channel AI Explained has a good summary of it called "RT-X and the Dawn of Large Multimodal Models: Google Breakthrough and 160-page Report Highlights"

[@kylewellman402]

Ive always worked with FANUC robotics since the start of my controls engineering career. The company i work for now uses KUKA. Ive never heard of them before but recognized it immediately in your picture lol. Interested to see what all this video talks about

[@erniecamhan]

Love your channel, everything explained in an easy understandable way, I have worked in similar environments you have shown.... ie TI automotive we installed helium leak detection machines that worked in harmony with the robots, keep the videos coming 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@beehappy3209]

Stumbled across your channel..wow your such an inspiration. Looking forward to watching your videos 👍

[@jmflyer55]

I serviced these robotics for 18 years until I recently retired. Some as seen here, some much larger and much faster. BTW, no robot should be in any manufacturing environment without a fence. I’ve unfortunately seen a couple of accidents during my career as it was me who had to get them untangled from the robot. Usually in pieces.

[@ChillGuy511]

Robotics course would be cool! But I'd love a university type course... More than "KZbin" type... Like detailed and not dumbed down... With math!

[@TinyMaths]

Would absolutely be interested in an online course on robotics. I started messing with Arduino a few months back, and am currently trying to build a simple pen plotter using stepper motors I salvaged from old damaged printers and the servo motor that came with my arduino kit. A small desktop robot arm is a future bucket list project and, having seen the way you teach, I wouldn't hesitate to buy a robotics course if you produced one.

[@randal3122]

robotics are being used all over the place now, and they arent only for massive companies anymore. or car companies. they are making productivity increase exponentially in even industries where parts are unique. they have been used in structural steel fabrication to process profiles, and the cutting edge that is starting to be used is robotic assembly and welding that can parts and automatically fit them to beams/columns and then weld them out. the processing robots have cut labor in half, and the assembly robots will cut that in half again. these are all one-off assemblies that are produced with modeling software and drawing files. the processing robots are used by all large and medium sized fabricators currently, and the assembly robots are just starting to be adopted. i would guess that in a few years, all large and medium fabricators will have them. competition and the free market forces companies to stay on the cutting edge, and these robots are that. it starts out where you have an advantage, and then it turns into you not being able to compete without it, and it just keeps progressing. its really quite amazing, and it seems to be filling a need due to younger people not wanting to do that type of work. its hard to comprehend how this stuff advances so rapidly until you see it first-hand

[@joelance3327]

@Jeremy Very nice Synopsis…

[@sandyt4343]

You have to have the most enjoyable videos on KZbin and certainly some of the most informative Jeremy. Do you have any on using a treadmill three phase motor to generate electricity from a wind turbine. I know it’s a longshot.

[@geraldstephens8791]

I have been watching now for years, and love how you do your content. But i really miss the days when you explained the basics and made cool things out of junk you found on the side of the road.

[@Jeremy_Fielding]

I have been thinking about that myself lately LOL. I have plans to do many “intro” and basic stuff videos. That will start probably after the next video. I wanted to test the waters with more complex videos and I don’t think enough people are interested. I want my videos to be helpful and interesting. Finding that balance is hard. As to building from “junk”Basically building all that stuff from random parts and using them greatly increased my understand of ALL the reasons why certain engineering decisions where made and that means when I take a motor out of a washing machine today for example I have a much deeper understanding of why that motor is in that machine. Before I would think “can you make X with Y and I probed understanding motor choices and how parts function in different applications … the answer was pretty much always yes it would work! But now I also think “should you make X with Y. Knowing what I do now” And thus I tend to look for the “right” part instead of the part I have on hand. The junk parts can work, but there’s a (usually a lot of them) reason(s) no manufacturer is doing it that way. A bearing still works as a bearing, but there is a more appropriate bearing for that application, and more appropriate motor for that job etc. that’s my Delima. Now that I know what should be there and understand why more deeply it’s not as fun to use the “wrong” part just because I can.

I have removed my inverter from my prototype and increased the capacitor banks to two sets of 4.bojack banks. I also removed the modified alternator and replaced it with a 240 ac generator motor. 1000 dollars I was hoping not to spend. Added a gearbox with crank handle to start the generator. So far so good !! Are you getting any of this ?

[@lupusk9productions]

I wish they would add some of those vision safety components to the robot arm itself or something so that it can "see" where it's swinging. That way you could have sensors plus a vision component, as in your car vs human example maybe it could see a human and stop versus rely on sensors to feel them.
