Series of robots and "new forms of life" using Theo Jansen mechanism - Blender Bullet SmallLuxGPU

[@Phymec]

I just started with Theo Jansen's holy numbers, determined the geometric limits from there.

[@noidea91]

Wow, Blender is powerful.

[@immortaldiscoveries3038]

WOW

[@AethernaLuxen]

The moment the camera moved so perfectly I was like "wait a min"

[@AethernaLuxen]

@Dick Spiegel This is like the 4th time I've seen the exact same reply in multiple video. I'm not a fan of promotional spam bots, so you get the report lmao

[@mariamencier5545]

Quelle élégance !!!! quelle grâce !!!! Merci Monsieur JANSEN vous êtes le digne successeur de Léonard de Vinci !!!

[@popper666]

Awesome. One of the more interesting things I've ever seen. I thought they were real models until about halfway through the video. I couldn't figure out how you got the motor and the power source and the RC in those little units.

[@alin116]

Good job! for a moment there, I didn't notice they were CGI :)

[@grietdegeyter7887]

Wat elegantie !

[@bemoahmad9756]

I think it real, but when I see your comment then I realize it just a CGI, I did not read the description, 😁

[@Peruvianbean]

After reading the description it's still very impressive

[@HiAdrian]

I don't quite know what to say. This stands out in many ways, great attention to detail, fascinating to watch.

[@ilanpretz]

Nothing better than Blender!!!

[@carmelpule6954]

Some wonderful matrices behind all this to transform the position from one to another including rotation. When it was going over lose stones, well at my age I can only admire the brilliant minds who can " see" further than I can. Congratulations to all who had a hand in all this. I am building a simple one for my grandson and I shall exhibit it at his school, hoping that no one will break it. Congratulations once again, Brilliant work of a modern mind........... but the actual building in reality is also difficult to synthesise.

[@ajbdkla3652]

This is awesome, I've never been able to figure out how to do basic physics and collisions like this in blender. I can only do like smoke and water and junk so really nice job.

[@Phymec]

For final HD SmallLuxGPU2, typically 20 spf (45 spf for Meccano w/ trace depth 24) on my PC = i7 920 + 2 x ATI HD4890 OpenCL 1.0. Luxrender "Finished Work" forum for more info... Thanks.

[@gunakaryaku]

That for sale?

[@richardvdoost]

Great work! Theo Jansen's beach creatures are amazing. I've made miniature versions myself, and I once tried to simulate them with blender too. But the number of constraints made the simulation very unstable.

[@obsideonyx7604]

OMG I did not realise this was an animation until they started walking through the stones!! :O Nice job man, bravo!

[@TrikeSquadron]

very cool! I love your Blender Physics videos.. and this is fascinating to watch. I had seen the Theo Jansen videos before and when I first saw this I too thought it was a real video not CG! Great work!

[@oEQjet]

When you turn, the pair of legs on the outside should be moving faster than the pair on the inside. Based on the function 2*pi*r (r being distance from center)

[@zoraxbrooks]

I like how there were different walking styles, like some had a real personality

[@vivienwilliams1538]

This is entirely beautiful.

[@SNOWYD3VO]

Thought this was real at first because of the graphics

[@guygaspard58]

i

[@CmdrGendoIkari]

Hmmm...Never seen these walking machines before. Quite interesting that it's possible to get that good of a walking motion out of a fairly simple crankshaft setup.

[@TheWindGinProject]

Most excellent! I do some physics simulations on my channel but this takes the cake. Top notch! Thanks for sharing. Peace

[@MartianStories]

This is great work, Phymec. I love the bit of the vid in the game engine. I would love to see the control setups for this. The mouseover and grab system is awesome!

[@miketv2331]

wait a second....these are working digital models of Theo Janssen creatures? That's awesome as shit! Welcome to my favorites list!

[@Trueblood030]

these things ain't CG they work with minimal power, the originals work on wind power stored in pop bottles on the dutch beaches. amazing stuff

[@PURIGARE]

superb rigging, sir.

[@TristanMorrow]

Awesome! ...all I ever manage to make with Blender is smoothies...

[@Superguru123]

if somthing moves that should lift the next element. This desing is one of the type i understand it there are many other ideas behind it . this works only in the wind by air presure. No electric power required.

[@jonopedersen6282]

Is my brain ment to hurt from amazement! So subbing!

[@martinmarwa]

who ever made this, he is a genius its so simple and functional NASA could use one of this robots and make it walk on the moon

[@jsihavealotofplaylists]

My god I found this years ago and have sort of searched on and off and finally I'm back!

[@Dasheng1994]

how does it work?why?

[@enochabban9454]

It's amazing. How did you it. A step by step tutorial will be great.

[@nikkid4890]

Yes please!!!

[@420Abomination420]

Holy shit, this dude is the boss of blender.

[@OcelottMaster]

damn, those textures are amazing..

[@timearly5226]

THAT was mesmerizing. Thanks!

[@Gemneroth]

Wow, didn't realise this was a render :o GJ!

[@harschinna9072]

great piece of work man ! simply awesome ..

[@Paralax1624]

Fantastic work! I'm really impressed

[@olivvapor4873]

They are all fantastic ! ... Still don't quite understand how do they work ... and rotate !

[@so3612]

art & science fit fine together ! This work reveals how much we ignore, as stupid linear thinking people (faster, bigger, stronger).

[@ProjectNetoku]

You think well use this for designing robots that walk in the future?

[@wyattearp190]

I saw one of these walking about my garden two days ago. It was a bit smaller!

[@TheGreatUtopiaCat]

this is mesmerizing, imagine a creature that survives by transfixing it's prey

[@ifd4626]

After clicking i thought they were real but they are real indeed im seeing them so they exist, wich software how you do this?

[@bhaskarchakraborty1063]

thanks jansen.very fine mechanism but try it more simple way.

[@donovannichols8562]

sorry if this is a dumb question but if one were to make a strandbeest irl to be driven by a motor, how would I get all the crankshafts to rotate?

[@qnaman]

I tried create something like that only usign "Ridig body joint" constraints, and simple shapes. Is that possible that way? My models shakes like jelly :(

[@ataurrehman3664]

But how it is changing it's direction's when it is coming closer to any obstacle??

[@adiarainfoster]

Honestly, I think that things like the Mars Rover would do better with this kind of locomotion. It can climb over rocks like the rover can have trouble doing. Especially the ones with the many rows of legs. seems like it would be much more stable? I get this is an animation. But he got the design from Theo jansens' "Strand beests," which are real world models powered by wind. I always wondered what would happen if an engine was put on one and it was made of metal rather than wood and plastic...

[@roneyjunior8064]

Também são ideais pra exploração na Antártica.

[@actionoise]

fantastick..... i hope is possible to find the possibilty of to work with actionoise sistem.....

[@dougo891]

Brilliant conception❗❗❗❗😎

[@STROBdotNET]

This is amazing. Can you do a tutorial on such setup? I think I will learn blender now!

[@АлексейТемников-э8г]

Как они управляются,и чем они движутся?

[@paimun67]

great invention, but where ist the motor and the electronics?

[@LepidoliteMica]

paimun67 This is all animated. There's a simulated motor in the core, but the rest is entirely simulated physical, mechanical magic. For more info on the mechanics in play, look up the "strandbeest".

[@littlesnowflakepunk855]

+Lepidolite Mica I thought the whole point of Strandbeest were that they were powered by natural forces like wind or gravity? I've never seen one with a motor.

[@LepidoliteMica]

Tetrachromia Yeah, maybe I wasn't entirely clear there. The Strandbeest in the video here is computer animated; it still doesn't use a motor, but simply because it's a computer simulation it really doesn't need one. It's more impressive seeing one in real life, where it's very clearly not motor-controlled.

[@Everfalling]

Do you have your variations on the magic numbers listed somewhere?

[@Riverauecorses]

When will this type of mechanism be available in a stair climbing mobility chair for handicapped individuals ?

[@skyr8449]

lol, It doesn't work like that, they are limited to only one walk cycle, the machine would need to be for an exact staircase.

[@wiegerdraaijer]

dit is superleuk om met m'n kleinkinderen na te bouwen met Fischer Technik en dan ook met motortjes! Wie doet er nog meer mee?

[@TheTechAdmin]

11:08 This one must have taken FOREVER to render, lol.

[@leoroam2770]

+Phymec Love these things and the sexy way how it walks.I really want to add this tecnique to an android that i will build in the next months.I know it's a complex stuff to build a beginner though the homemade way is used for some of the youtubers here!!

[@geraldinedowning7388]

Is there a how to video, or kit for my 11 year old son ?

[@dinawidiastuti575]

No motors n baterry?

[@juancarlosbarackaldorocha2844]

Muy tezo ,artístico,tecnológico y hermoso,se siente una sensación rara al ver esto.

[@roneyjunior8064]

Robô ideal para exploração espacial em outros planetas.

[@alexorlando1]

Wow!!!! this is amazing, a lot of work, you are a genios...

[@Phymec]

Yes, good point. I considered, but was surprised how simple motor logic worked ok even on long beasts... lazyness. :)

[@khadijagwen]

Very nice can I buy kit or plans?

[@karlnoben8199]

Actually, plans are opensource... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jansen%27s_linkage

[@cleopatraarias3391]

Interestelar programs should be interested in such models to send explorers to opened space.

[@limgeokhwa1403]

how does it walk by itself?

[@zakkus]

This is excellent work man. I am actually starting to make a full scale personal transport version of a theo jansen walker, and i would to know if you came up with any interesting ratios (currently making small scale models to test things out).

[@Areandres3D]

Great dude. I like how the robots move. How long you render per frame ?

[@dahahaka]

Reaaally nice work :) just awesome

[@raykent3211]

Consider me gobsmacked. Are you doing big-budget hollywood work? How many hours, days, months to do this? Amazing.

[@pancakesrmything]

The real question isnt how it's where can i buy one??

[@shivamtripathi4430]

I mean where is the power source to drive this?

[@karlnoben8199]

It's an animated film, but the Author/artist used to make beach kinetic sculptures that moves with the Wind. Just search Theo Janssens in youtube...

[@keescanalfp5143]

@@karlnoben8199, "Jansen" will work also

[@pepitogamez]

this is amazing but I have two questions Where does he get the energy to walk and as he knows the points where you should walk? Regards from México City

[@Bertoblam1]

I too was fooled by the clever 3D graphics. These things would be far too fiddly to build and work as smoothly as these do in reality. wouldn't they?

[@DavidBoura]

[@rolfedieternajarterrones214]

please, what is the software?

[@shivamtripathi4430]

How r u making it move?

[@skyr8449]

It is an animation

[@JohnnysaidWhat]

WOW you are brilliant!

[@ReeferReas]

What is the render time?

[@nickpatella1525]

It reminds me of a spider... kinda creepy but cool!

[@qzr3175]

how can i get one of these things?

[@GrahamNicholson56]

+qzr31 You can buy 3D printed models at Shapeways.com - just search for Theo Jansen on the website.
