>>10826601>That rock has transistors engraved, no transistors engraved no machineIrrelevant since every device needs to be refined from material anyway. I could say the same for your jointed tools and the alloys that go in them.
>fuck, what.. do you think you jut take a rock from youfr garden and plug it on?You refine it first obviously but it's still inherently the same thing.
>Even If you were right computer chips arent a mechanism by definition, all transistors make one piece....and then they all perform a task.
>yo may say its a compliant mechanism but those arent the ones Im talking aboutI'm stretching it for sure, but the concept is still similar.
>>10827080>It is essentially the polar opposite philosophy to modularityBut I don't see how, both a compliant mechanism are designed for input's/outputs. I wouldn't say it's polar opposite, it does the same thing differently.
>"planned obsolescence"Right I get that, I believe it just *makes more sense* to have planned obsolescence in compliant mechanisms since the method to make them and their application is suited for it. Especially on the subatomic scale such as this
>>10827559 anon pointed out. The smaller the space gets, the harder it is to assemble things which is why they just need to be grown as one thing ready to go.
>>10827297>compliant mechanism cannot be made from a flexible metal or one that expands from heatThey use them in clutches that would snap your puny little cigarette arms. If that gripper was designed better and made out of spring steel, then I bet it would perform better.
