NABiRoS: Non Anthropomorphic Bipedal Robotic System

[@Unclevertitle]

Putting the cardboard box with a smiley face on it was a stroke of genius.

[@bill4639]

I love the grout trowel feet. People forget how useful flat springs are.

[@sergio7248]

"An elegant way for climbing stairs" ... THAT ELEGANT???

[@Tronikart]

HE IS SO HAPPY

[@MaxLohMusic]

"She", I think? (dat eyelash length!)

[@cirusMEDIA]

It's a she! ..lets not confuse this little robot okay!

[@catsviral8309]

She is Domp

[@pikudopikao8425]

Max Loh, are you assuming the robot's gender?

[@starrychloe]

It's a girl.

[@alexs1972]

that really is about as elegant a solution as I've ever seen for bipedal motion

[@ulforcemegamon3094]

Same

[@rage7658]

ive been climbing stairs the wrong way my whole life

[@LadyTink]

Love this... Immitating nature is good, but not if you ignore what the robots could be. Good work focusing on robot advantages

[@taedinho]

어릴 때 로멜라 연구소와 데니스 홍 박사님을 보면서 로봇공학자에 대한 꿈을 키울 수 있었습니다. 정말 감사합니다. 아직 대학생이지만 계속해서 꿈을 키워가고 있는데 이렇게 유튜브 영상으로라도 박사님과 연구소를 접할 수 있어 너무 좋네요 항상 감사하고 응원합니다!

[@SvetlinTotev]

The reason why those complicated robots do not use your simplified system is mostly because they are supposed to be able to actively balance (yours only passively balances which is a problem on terrain such as sideways inclined terrain) and they can also turn (your robot doesn't seem to be able to do that at the moment). Additionally the main reason why they try to make the robots so seemingly unnecessarily human-like is so that they can efficiently interact with an environment designed for humans or for other reasons appropriate for human-like traversing.

[@JohnSmith-zf1lq]

pretty sure they know all that bro

[@arnavrawat9864]

This is genius. Building from first principles is necessary for innovation

[@SuperSmashDolls]

>non-anthropomorphic >has a smiling face

[@ouroboros5271]

Super Smash Dolls Anthropormophic means a humanoid shape.

[@Rick_Sanchez_C137_]

Daniel Shiwak WRONG! Anthropomorphism is the attribution of human traits, emotions, or intentions to non-human entities....... a smiley face is a human physical trait.

[@samovarmaker9673]

This is actually pretty impressive. Good job.

[@yoongilimerence]

1:38 I'M MR. NABiRoS, LOOK AT ME!

[@candykatkittylichiousisthebomb]

[@nielsf]

Elegant method climbing stairs.... LMAO

[@joshuasullivan4742]

How does it turn?

[@nagualdesign]

I doesn't, but it can move in straight lines like nobody's business.

[@theultimatereductionist7592]

It turns itself on. That's the freaky part.

[@f0r0n1n3]

2:40 in the video they were prototyping it

[@rcbif101]

1:35 - Someday this robot will be beating human salves with a whip at the robot run lithium mines.

[@selfdestructiontaboo]

just cut the cord lmao

[@thewunderhase]

Why should they be so dump? Don't let a Human do what a Robot can do 100 times better.

[@nikodembartnik]

Was that hobby servo in the legs of the robot? What’s the torque of it so that it can move without problems?

[@nivanmajhi23]

its called thin mints, eat some with orange juice and toothpaste

[@TunaBagels]

This seems more like a simplified quadrupedal robot, with its front and back legs moving simultaneously. It's certainly a novel machine, but it seems as though this machine would be entirely unable to rotate. The legs are going to have to be able to move laterally at some point, which would probably require some janky hopping & twisting motions, or breaking up the front and/or back legs, making into a tripod or full on quadruped again.

[@mayyouprosper8140]

YOU CAN MAKE BILLIONS JUST HAVING HIM JUMP AROUND ITS FUNNY

[@rebelbeammasterx8472]

Well this is basically the theropod walking system, which is extremely well balanced.

[@eaglewolfzen]

This I think will be the design for robots that run errands because of its gait and ability to climb obstacles. But I also think this could be a rover alternative. If its light enough, it could bounce on the moon, gallop on mars, and run on earth. Maybe even and off road vehicle wheel alternative.

[@skrame01]

How do you steer!

[@ikkonoishi]

Silly human the world is a 2d plane.

[@smorrow]

You need to steer in a plane though.

[@TinyShaman]

You don't. This robot is designed for Mario world.

[@murraynatkie7490]

"An elegant method for climbing stairs" ....

[@cosmic_snot]

Looks like this robot did way too much horse riding the day before the shoot.

[@ropac1256]

Such a cool take on walking

[@ProfSrinivasPhDPEng]

Great new way for bipedal mobility. Good Job

[@afreeusername2942]

Elegant doesn't necessarily have to mean something looks good. I think in this situation it means more like energy efficient.

[@ianlee74]

Can you tell me what size are those servo motors and where I can get them?

[@Lordodragonss]

Hey It's Plank Cousin! Great job guys!

[@abina573]

What motors are used in the knee?

[@robk.5467]

So how does it turn 90 degrees?

[@michaelfixedsys7463]

What if you give it treads for feet and only make it use it’s full legs for climbing

[@tylerlooney8058]

One of the most engenius designs ever and cutest at that lol.

[@mertcuhac7781]

how does it turn

[@colonelcat8639]

This is what I was saying, do we really need robots to look like people? Robots probably would work better if we did them from scratch and base them on simulations and things that work rather than a biological system that works in a different way.

[@amanofnoreputation2164]

"An elegant approach to bipedal locomotion." The robot: WOBWOBWOBWOBWOBWOB! * Zoidberg noises *

[@frankynakamoto2308]

They can put a drone on top where the head goes, so it can also fly.

[@vivifyer]

hows the robot go, walking sideways on a 5 degree floor. wont it just tip over?

[@smorrow]

I assume they'll put a joint in the ankle, plus arms would help. This is just a proof-of-concept.

[@syeedtuaha9082]

which servo did you use here?

[@pyalot]

"an elegant method for climbing stairs"... yes, yes very elegant.

[@valeforedark]

Ummmm how does it turn ?

[@kunglinz]

What simulation software did you use?

[@someguynamedelan]

This robot makes me unusually happy.

[@cocytusdrone]

is there any new video with the progress on this technology?

[@somendutta182]

do you have more videos of this bipedal robot?? i just want to know how it walks...thanks

[@thetruereality2]

How do you change the direction

[@niallshannon8214]

Any updates?

[@christopherrapczynski204]

"this makes humanoid robots take small steps so we changed it" *cuts to footage *is hobbling

[@josephklein3228]

but can it turn?

[@pebre79]

Havent any updates about this?

[@chasebh89]

Used in disaster areas it has the added perk of moral boosting via hilarious crab walk

[@davidl9232]

OK Mr Hong. I'm not big on this stuff. it's a curiosity-interest but I plan on watching it. appreciate the response

[@sugar-alisportstv]

Wow! That's incredible!

[@TheAngryCanary]

lose the ability to walk on an incline. Stuff like this and wheels work in our artificial world of flat surfaces. But you don't see stuff like this in nature because nature is full of inclines. And I'm not talking about going up or down inclines, but across them.

[@MaxLohMusic]

By golly you're right, excellent insight.

[@svampebob007]

well there goes years of research and design

[@rcreynolds6186]

I think the idea here is for municipal use. Hence the doorframe.

[@revimfadli4666]

TheAngryCanary just put motors to tilt the feet and "head" sideways?

[@eliasmontoya5058]

Revi M Fadli yeah this could be an easy fix if the thing's ankles or hips were free to shift. Also, in a city/office/home environment you dont usually need to move across sloped surfaces in every day life.

[@TheLazyKey]

Did the robot narrate this, too? Interesting video overall, though.

[@JordanHowellMusic]

lol! the box makes it look like plank from ed Edd and eddy!!! the concept is pretty cool though.

[@taufiquechaudhary3801]

Could you make video on BEAR: Back-drivable Electromagnetic Actuator Please if you have Theory information share that

[@mr.stand_by6316]

1:33 with this machine, we are one step closer away from god.

[@christopherrapczynski204]

This is our new god.

[@veganath]

Christopher at least it is real..lol

[@rcreynolds6186]

E D G e

[@boonxai]

Adams_Golems You can't be closer away from something, you can be closer to something but i think that you mean that we are one step away from :v

[@szczesniakdariusz]

Good!

[@tristanneal9552]

For some reason the continuous joint knees were terrifying.

[@Balancinglife]

Evolving plant form?

[@wanderingwade8877]

It needs it's own children's show. Happy the dancing robot.

[@JayBhalodia1991]

Great work, Did you used ROS to plan all those robotic moves? What motors did you used at knee- joints?

[@nivanmajhi23]

thin mints

[@mysticvirgo9318]

how to turn ?

[@Katapultoffel]

But... what if you push it from the side?

[@Despotic_Waffle]

Katapultoffel add arms to allow it to get up

[@ColinRichardson]

And turn?

[@makersgeneration3739]

Any tutorial?

[@2degucitas]

Ready to hit the club!

[@davidl9232]

I have a problem with how easy it is to knock it over from the side. our constant off balance as this notes is also an ability to counter being knocked off balance,especially from the side. Could the designers in instant telescoping poles to each side of it so it can instantly counter being knocked over. let's face it biological things( common things like cats, dogs, monkeys, horses, etc. ) often try knocking things about. or maybe have it fold up and backpack it unless other wise needing it. what?

[@DennisHongRobot]

David Levesque wait for the video of the follow up robot named "ALPHRED"

[@maxtaf524]

Nabiros is an alternate spelling of Naberius, one of the 72 Demons listed in the Ars Goetia. Naberius was specifically known for the ability imitate animal movement. Very much not a good name reference for your bot, guys.

[@dixiem2139]

When he said elegant i died. But genius idea yes. And it does still look like a human with open legs on it.

[@miltonlopez3482]

How is this bipedal walking ?

[@smorrow]

bi = two ped = foot walking = walking

[@anlerisangel]

Ok he can rotate?

[@eternalcosmos9]

Magnificent 😇😇😇

[@tylerlooney8058]

1:07 i love this design. It's like something from star wars

[@fqidz]

Due to its lightweight body made of cardboard it is able to move dynamically

[@Bobsheaux]

Odd bodkins... VERY interesting...

[@mrkat547]

But the main problem is... how will it turn?!?

[@manasjena949]

Yes man how do you stear it? U need 2 extra degree of freedom

[@ShubhankarGo]

Great bit of technology there. Might face a problem in the real world, coz a gust of wind or a little push to the side can topple it. There's no stabilization in that plane. But i'm sure they're working on it.

[@nivanmajhi23]

mmake it an octo pus

[@xaytana]

So, it's basically crab walking, but forwards and backwards instead of side to side, and on two legs. There's also a reason why you don't see this kind of leg design in nature. I suggest studying biomimicry to develop a robot that can move in a natural way while having stability.

[@xboi4359]

wow what an original idea, i don't think anyone else thought of bio mimicry

[@peter4999]

Looks like it can only walk in two directions. You solved one problem and created bigger one by doing so.

[@chungteckchye1216]

Very good. Keep up the good jobs.

[@martinramirezjr7872]

A weapon to surpass metal gear

[@omnianti0]

man you invented the wheel

[@smorrow]

It can go through high doorframes.

[@vincentleeadams]

Boston dynamics has completely solved all of these problems.

[@smorrow]

Yes but you have to weight that against cost.

[@Pengulin]

This is an amazing concept

[@swancollective]

Please don't call your microphone to record your voice ... just use it.

[@alfonsoflorio]

if it falls on the side there is no way to get up

[@elytraentity5106]

I too am too interested in robotics but I can't afford to buy the material

[@myothersoul1953]

The less we anthropomorphize robots the better they'll get. ;-)

[@montasermonte.9594]

welcome how are you my friend I am victorious Moses Mechatronics engineer from Sudan I have seen your work in the last robot. I am really surprised. It is a wonderful work. I wish you more success in this work I am very interested in this job. I graduated from university two months ago, and I have previously participated in the FTC Robotics Competition I am looking for a training opportunity in your wonderful company. I hope to respond as soon as possible Thank you all Montaser Mechatronics Engineer

[@mysticmarble94]

2:13 ... Floor is LAVA 🔥

[@KarlBunker]

2:33: It looks like it really needs to pee.

[@abhishekthakur8577]

Can you please tell me how to make this project .I want to make this project

[@borgaatalay182]

did u mean vah noboris???

[@MrDroneinthesky]

great hard work

[@blinded6502]

I am disappointed. You should have had music throughout the entire presentation; not after it's ending!

[@vincentleeadams]

Cost will plummet once mass production kicks in.

[@silverpc4611]

the motion is the same as animal running on all four.

[@lasdi]

Pas mal l'idée...

[@chrishalliday748]

It’s kind of like when Woody created Forky.
