>>13608299glad you asked, this is fun to talk about.
>So other retards will do the work for you?Yes, I can't do all of it and rather than patenting all of this which would make me a social pariah (I have another well paying career) I'd rather do what I can for this and give it to far more capable people to turn into a viable product. I'm no AI expert or even a robotics expert, but I feel I can hammer out some basics.
>That shit isn't suited for "fine" motor skills. Its small and strong, but does not have precise control. It can be stretched then returned to initial size with energy.you're absolutely right, I initially ignored it for that exact reason, but then I realized that you can chain segments of differing grades of phase change alloy that have different transition temperatures in a sort of a weave pattern which then allows me to "step" the actuation over a temperature gradient (25-45C). There's a lot of details to that, namely change in resistance and exact weave patterns, but you get the general idea.
>powered off a central diaphragm pump should be both quiet and powerful.The idea is its fairly silent, and the efficiency comment I should elaborate on. Because I can reroute the pumps flow to various large muscles you don't need like 80+ individual servos which are far larger and heavier while also producing a very natural looking form including muscle expansion on flexing. Further, you benefit from the muscles not always firing at once, and if they do fire at once, you only lose speed not strength. they can also "hold" indefinitely which lowers their actuation to "live loads only" greatly reducing power consumption.
>Heat dissipations done via ...MOSFETS, valve solenoids, pumps, they all generate a few watts which would make the torso too warm and the extremities would be cold. This is more of a function to make it more lifelike.
>>13608326It's cool bro, clearly he's just frustrated I haven't finished it completely yet and needs a nut.
