Robot with 1,000 muscles twitches like human while dangling from ceiling
-
they could have gone so many different directions. nutcracker. river dance. yackety sax…
-
At first misread as cloaca. Barely even gave me pause in this thread.
-
if you want it to interact with a wide range of environments and objects that were designed for humans, then a humanoid robot may be the way to go.
-
Great, soon I won't even know if someone is human in real life as well. Youre all bots.
-
The goal is to replicate humans, so yeah
-
the only thing I'm hoping for is that this can serve as a proof of concept that human brains might be able to learn to control limbs made of synthetic muscles like that...

I see they are prepping for the live action QWOP movie.
-
It's the Torment Nexus dilemma.

Can't wait to find out it was just a guy in a suit.

I don't like living in the future as much as young me thought I would.

Maybe a weird aside, but what does this mean?
pushing fluid at 40 standard liters per minute.
Are there "liters" other than the 10cm x 10cm x 10cm definition?
-
That's all of the bones of an human adult. Yeah, I'm sure absolutely all of them were necessary.
Are you trying to imply they gave it a dick? If so they don't have bones in them.
-
Science isn’t about why, it’s about why not!
-
You mean the flow rate of a volume of liquid? What are you confused about exactly?
-
No, it's pretty much only you thinking that. The rest of us were thinking about the 6 tiny bones in the ears only used for hearing or dozens of weird little bones in the wrists and ankles.
-
They're asking why it's "standard litres per minute", instead of just "litres per minute"
-

Now we can have people twitching while hanging from the ceiling without having to hunt them in back alleys! Progress!
-
Exactly, ear in particular was what I thought about. There are very tiny bones in there. I'm pretty sure they didn't replicate a functional human ear, so those have no impact on anything.
Many bones in the hand and foot are also locked in place together, so modeling each one seems, well, I don't think it's a waste of time, but at this point you're making an art performance.
