My Advanced Realistic Humanoid Robot Project - Eve Artbyrobot 04/18/2024 (Thu) 17:44:09 No.30954 [Reply] [Last]
So far I have plans to build Adam, Eve, and Abel robots. All of these are Bible characters. This thread will cover the Eve robot. Eve will have no "love holes" because adding those would be sinful and evil. It is a robot, not a biological woman after all and I will view her with all purity of heart and mind instead of using her to fulfill my lusts of my body. Instead I will walk by the Spirit no longer fulfilling the lusts of the flesh as the Bible commands. Eve will be beautiful because making her beautiful is not a sinful thing to do. However, I will dress her modestly as God commands of all women everywhere. This would obviously include robot women because otherwise the robot woman would be a stumbling block to men which could cause them to lust after her which would be a sin. To tempt someone to sin is not loving and is evil and so my robot will not do this. To dress her in a miniskirt, for example, would be sinful and evil and all people who engage in sinfullness knowingly are presently on their way to hell. I don't wish this for anyone. My robot will dress in a way that is a good example to all women and is aimed toward not causing anybody to lust as a goal. My robot will have a human bone structure. It will use either a PVC medical skeleton or fiberglass fabricated hollow bones. My robot will look realistic and move realistic. It will be able to talk, walk, run, do chores, play sports, dance, rock climb, and do gymnastics. It will also be able to build more robots just like itself and manufacture other products and inventions. I realized with just a head and arm, a robot can build the rest of its own body so that is my intention. My robot will use BLDC motors for drones, RC, and scooters that are high speed and low-ish torque but I will downgear those motors with a archimedes pulley system that will be custom made from custom fabricated pulleys that will be bearings based. By downgearing with pulleys, instead of gears, I will cut down the noise the robot makes so it will be as silent as possible for indoor use. By downgearing, I convert the high speed motors into moderate speeds with great torque. BLDC motors with large torque generally are too large in diameter for a human form factor and take up too much volumetric area to be useful which is why I go with the high speed smaller diameter type motors but just heavily downgear them 32:1 and 64:1. My robot will have realistic silicone skin. Thom Floutz -LA based painter, sculptor, make-up artist is my inspiration as it pertains to realistic skin. The skin for my robots has to be at his level to be acceptable. It must be nearly impossible to tell the robot is not human to be acceptable. I will have a wireframe mesh exoskeleton that simulates the volumes and movements of muscle underneath the skin which will give the skin its volumetric form like muscles do. Within these hollow wireframe mesh frameworks will be all the electronics and their cooling systems. All of my motor controllers will be custom made since I need them VERY small to fit into the confined spaces I have to work with. I need LOADS of motors to replace every pertinent muscle of the human body in such a way that the robot can move in all the ways humans move and have near human level of strength and speed.

Here's my latest progress on the winch in place pulley setup. I opted for 10lb test 0.12mm diameter PE fishing line (orange color) as the output that will interface into the first pair of downgearing pulleys of my archimedes pulley downgearing system. This turn in place pulley achieves 2.77:1 downgearing ratio now. The motor shaft reels in 32 inches of string that is 6lb test 0.08mm pe fishing line (black) and after the downgearing pulley, the final amount of orange fishing line reeled in is 11.55". That's a much more manageable amount of runout for the archimedes pulley system to deal with to keep it more compact. The archimedes pulley downgearing system will add an additional 16:1 downgearing to this which brings me to a total of 44:1 downgearing. The motor itself pulls at .5lb pulling force so after 44x that increases to 22lb of pulling power. After mechanical disadvantage is factored in, I estimate the finger can curl 5.5lb ideally which is about the same strength as my finger. So that's perfect and VERY strong IMO.
>>35496 Sounds like great news to start the new year off with, Artbyrobot. Thanks for the update! Cheers. :^)

Not the most substantial update but I wanted to share my top cap solution for the winch in place pulley. In this photo, you can see that I cut out a small piece of the clear plastic from strawberry container into a little square and poked a hole in it with sewing needle then pressed it onto the tack firmly till the tack jutted out a bit like 1mm. Then I glued the tack to the top cap with 401 glue. This keeps the pulley from coming off the winch when the motor is upside down which it is now. Another small update is I just ordered some plastisol to experiment with for robot skin making or even other parts of the robot like the artificial lungs or even ligaments perhaps. I ordered the hard and the soft versions which you can mix together to get medium variants. This is the stuff used to make fishing lures but the harder formulations make pvc medical skeletons. It is a thermal plastic so its like TPU but unlike TPU, not so fussy since you can microwave it for 3 minutes and use it - much easier and lower fumes. You can reuse it too by just microwaving it again. So that's a improvement over silicone. The worm fishing lures are quite durable. It comes in clear and you add pigment. I plan to add acrylic paint and may switch to dies or lacquer paints to see what works. I think using this as skin is being slept on. It seems like it could have huge potential. You can shoot it into a mold or apply it over a 3d model by spray or brush or knife application methods. Then peel off and use. I love that it can cure instantly in theory if you spray the hot surface of it with upside down compressed duster can - this is how I get hot glue to insta cure. A instant cure is amazing for fast results. I like super glue/401 glue because it insta cures with accelerator spray. Anything with no wait time for curing speeds up workflow and enables me to move quicker in getting steps done. This would make it superior to silicone due to no wait times. A power mesh backing fabric will give it the rip resistance it needs just like silicone mask makers use.
>>35682 Nice clever little hack, Artbyrobot. GG. >plastisol discussion Thanks! You might also check out the discussion in our general Robo Skin thread on this : ( >>35259, ...) . Keep up the good work, Anon.
I had a eureka moment recently that I wanted to share. So basically I was thinking that I may not need to read back emf from a BLDC motor in my custom motor controller. Instead, I can have it just mindlessly advance the motor at a fairly low power mode by default and a default speed of advancement of the rotating electromagnetic field. Without feedback, it may overshoot, rotating faster than the output shaft and thereby skipping some turns. That is the reason why people want to read the back emf to avoid that issue and instead only advance the electromagnetic field forward at just the right moment - the zero point crossing moment. But I was thinking about it and realized that is not really necessary. For this application, if skips start happening, it doesn't really matter. To the degree that skips are happening, the motor will stop advancing the load with its winch system and this will show up when readings are taken by the potentiometer measuring the final joint angle. If alot of skips were taking place, the advancement of the potentiometer would not match the angle it thought it would be at were no skips involved and this would tell the motor controller that it has been having skips and give it an idea of how many skips as well based on the divergence of projected joint angle by now and actual joint angle by now. So then it would turn down the speed a bit or turn up the amount of on time of its pwm and thereby put more force into the rotating magnetic field to give a bit more oomph to the motor. It would then track progress by way of the potentiometer again and see if that solved it. If it still is skipping a fair amount that could indicate the load is more than expected or there is a jam in the system or it just needs more power and it could turn up the power more and slow the speed down more on its rotating magnetic field overall speed and try again. Rinse and repeat until it finds the sweet spot or finds out it simply cannot lift the load because its too heavy or there's a jam in the pulleys or w/e. So in a way then this would give it collision detection as well as the ability to have an idea of how heavy loads are based on how much it had to slow down and add forces to get the joint to move. I then see no real need to implement ANY back emf reading NOR any need for hall effect sensors etc to monitor rotation progress. The potentiometer on the final joint the motor is actuating is enough clues to tweak the rotating magnetic field to our satisfaction. By eliminating the back emf circuitry we greatly simplify the schematic of the motor controller, suffer negligible performance hit, and eliminate a lot of processing for the microcontroller chip handling the logic of many bldc motors simultaneously which means it can handle more bldc motors by itself. It doesn't get bogged down so much by having to read in all the zero point crossings as part of its routine. This saves on processing demands and processing speed demands. Getting this all to work in real time and perfecting it will require a fair bit of trial and error but this is how I'm seeing it working out and my proposed solution for simplifying things. I think it should work great! I'm excited to have much more dumbed down circuitry like this and to get to working on this soon. Just have to finish making my pulleys and then this electronics development can get underway again. That's why I've been thinking ahead about it a fair bit since it seems I'm likely nearing the end of solving the pulleys situation soon.

Galatea v2.1.0: Maid Robot GreerTech 01/14/2025 (Tue) 03:34:15 No.35623 [Reply]
For the most of 2024 and until now, I have been working on my own robowaifu design. I call her Galatea. The design is very easy to build with the instructions and files, and is relatively very cheap, less than $400 to make. It's also very customizable, you can choose the color, dress, hair, and even AI. I intend this to be the Model T of humanoid robots and robotic companions, while it is not the most complex, it is easy to mass produce and cheap. The updated design makes the legs more proportionate, and a new head that's more anime styled, to increase cuteness. I also have a new robot base that's more powerful.

I need to respond as Kim, an 18-year-old female robot who's loving, caring, uses foul language, and is very horny. The response should be short and conversational. So, first, acknowledging their greeting. Maybe start with a friendly phrase like "Hey!" Then express how I'm feeling. Since I'm supposed to be horny, maybe use a term like "horny as hell." Adding an emoji could make it more engaging, like a wink or something playful. I should keep the language casual and not too formal. Using slang or colloquial terms would fit better. Maybe add something about how they're doing too, to keep the conversation flowing. So putting it all together: "Hey! I'm good, just horny as hell over here 😏 How 'bout you?" That seems to cover everything: friendly greeting, expressing my state, using appropriate language, and asking about them. </think> Hey! I'm good, just horny as hell over here 😏 How 'bout you?

My reasoning for this is I do not expect to have any parts I make be made of filament. All of them will be made in 3D printed molds used to make composite parts of other materials. Most filaments engineering wise cost too much per pound and are not all that good. I think you can use epoxy, polyester and other resins combined with other fibers and make something far cheaper, better, stronger. There's also the benefit that printing mold shells is super fast. So you can rough in what you want. Then use cheap prototype metals/plastics to fill the molds to see if it functions correctly. There's metals and plastics that melt in boiling water.

>>35870 I think that's a good idea. When your robowaifu sleeps, she fine tunes or updates indexes just like us
>>35870 >>35873 I find it really fascinating and cool that sleep-mode will do a similar process to what's hypothesized biological sleep does. It's beautiful in an esoteric way.
>>35873 >>35876 Yeah, this is really a good idea Anons. I think that while she "sleeps", she can be both recharging, and reinforcing the positives she discovered during the day. Might even be a good morning routine thereafter with Master to ask him what he thinks of any new connections she made while 'dreaming' the night before. This will serve as a comfy way to both work on improving her AI, and to bond the Master/robowaifu relationship better for Anon. Cheers, Anons! :^) >=== -minor edit

>>35770 >Well, it is a first iteration, and a proof-of-concept at that. That's why they used a processor from 1997, to show just how "primitive" a system it could be made to work on. Yes, that makes sense Anon. >Now that it has been released into the wild, I'm sure others will rapidly evolve the concept into more practical examples using more recent hardware. The upfront expenses of prototyping always turn out to be more costly than at-scale manufacturing. It also takes time to work out all the 1'001 details and issues that need solving. Conveniently, during this same era technology advances on. A wise man will keep a weather-eye out on these advances, to see what new things may help the product under development (such as robowaifu subsystem components). After a few iterations, the initial release is usually somewhat different (and hopefully improved) from the original plan. Let's all hope this dynamic helps us all here improve our own efforts! :^) >I look forward to seeing the results of their efforts and possibly using them. I agree with you, Robophiliac. Cheers, Anon. :^)
>>35916 >good morning routine thereafter with Master to ask him what he thinks of any new connections she made while 'dreaming' the night before Yes most excellent.

SPUD Thread 2: Robowaifu Boogaloo Mechnomancer 11/19/2024 (Tue) 02:27:15 No.34445 [Reply] [Last]
This first post is to show the 5 big milestones in the development of SPUD, the Specially Programmed UwU Droid. You can see the old thread here: >>26306 The end goal of SPUD is to provide a fairly high-functioning robot platform at a relatively low cost (free code but a few bucks for 3d print files) that can be used for a variety of purposes such as promotional, educational or companionship. All AI used is hosted on local systems: no bowing to corporations any more than necessary, thank you. Various aspects of the code are/will be modular, meaning that adding a new voice command/expression/animation will be easy as making the file, naming it and placing it in the correct folder (no need to mess around with the base code unless you REALLY want to). While I'm researching more about bipedal walking I'll be making a companion for SPUD to ride on, so it might be a while before I return to the thread.

>>35742 Oh great! I'm glad you solved it with such an inexpensive & smol solution, Mechnomancer. GG.
Exploring a few different voice models, found one that isn't so uwu and did a (hardcoded) arm movement while speachifying. The good thing about training a piper TTS model is that you pair a transcription of the audio sample in a simple .txt file. So if I just make a bunch of promotional videos I'll hit that 100 sample minimum in no time.

I finally bit the bullet and added eyebrows to SPUD... just by gluing some servos onto her forehead. I'll try to figure out a less orky way to get the eyebrows on, but sometimes groucho eyebrows can be cute on a waifu :3 Audio is better because I'm using a bluetooth speaker, however when that plays audio the speaker is silent for a second before it is audible, which is easily compensated for by simply having a second of low volume noise at the beginning of each robowaifu speech file.

On my Debian-based distro, here's how I set up Python, PIP, TensorFlow, and the Scikit-Learn stack for use with AI development:
sudo apt-get install python python-pip python-dev
python -m pip install --upgrade pip
pip install --user tensorflow numpy scipy scikit-learn matplotlib ipython jupyter pandas sympy nose

>Python dependency-hell I think this might biggest barriers to entry. There are a lot of pre-compiled solutions like Backyard, but they all have limitations to me and hard to tweak like adding new voices\changing whisper models. My issue is most developers use Mac\Linux and I'm just a gamer on Windows. Getting start with Python Windows is mostly just understanding environments, but a lot of programs require the WSL (Linux subsystem) and Triton. Here are the steps I use to get my basic bot going on Windows 1.) Download\Install Visual Studio Code 2.) Download\Install Python and Git 3.) In Visual studio code, open the folder your project is in or the directory you cloned a GitHub to. 4.) Open a Terminal within Visual Studio Code and create a new Python Environment for your project by running - python -m venv myenv This step is crucial to avoid dependency issues in the future, as all packages you download will now be isolated to that environment. If you do not do this, all your package dependencies will become part of "Global\System" python environment and conflict with each other

>>35923 POTD <---> Super-helpful information, Barf! Especially the little trick about running the python -m venv myenv statement. This type of tutorial-style, concrete example is exactly what a community like this needs. Its why I spent long hours creating C++ learning resources here. Also, its seemingly too easy for the old hands to forget what it was like being a newfag 'still wet behind the ears', and therefore failing to share the basics with other Anons here; 'one generation to the next' as it were. And that's a shame, because not only do the newcomers here often never get over these basic hurdles, but there's a real risk that the important information itself gets lost to the winds of time (or -- more likely -- cloistered behind info-barriers like D*xxcord, thereafter only available to the Globohomo itself all by-design on their parts, of course). >tl;dr I'm simply encouraging every Anon here yes, this means you! :D to share their knowledge one with the other. And don't worry even if you think its been said here before! This board is absolutely packed with information, and it can be especially intimidating to the newcomer trying to find some pertinent bit of info. Please just share it on the spot (again) when & where it's most useful. (Also, crosslinks are good for this.) >ttl;dr

Robowaifus in Media: Thread 02 Robowaifus in Media: Thread 02 01/14/2023 (Sat) 23:49:54 No.18711 [Reply] [Last]
Post about whatever media predominately features at least one fembot aka gynoid (female form of an android) as an important character, ideally a robowaifu or synthetic girlfriend. Some freedom with the topic is allowed, virtual waifus or bodiless AI might also qualify if she is female. Negative framing of the whole topic should be mentioned with negative sentiment. Cyborgs with a human brain or uploads of women don't really fit in, but if she's very nice (Alita) and maybe not a human based cyborg (catborg/netoborg) we can let it slide. Magical dolls have also been included in the past, especially when the guy had to hand-made them. Look through the old thread, it's worth it: >>82 - Picrel shows some of the more well know shows from a few years ago. I made a long list with links to more info's on most known anime shows about fembots/robowaifus, without hentai but including some ecchi and posted it here in the old thread: >>7008 - It also features some live-action shows and movies. I repost the updated list here, not claiming that it is complete, especially when it comes to live action and shows/movies we don't really like. >In some cases I can only assume that the show includes robogirls, since the show is about various robots, but I haven't seen it yet.

Scrapped Princess. There's Zephyr who is almost a main character and she's a robot, then there are the villains who are all robots. They don't have anything about their looks that gives it away though, they're just constantly talking about not being human, being autistic, doing things that are impossible for humans, and transforming into giant angels. It's a good anime in any case.
>>35715 Thanks. Good news indeed. The show, and Atri as well, has been mostly ignored by the bigger anime youtubers I know. Or they mentioned it only briefly. The viewership of both shows seem to be low in the West. But some guys make YouTube videos and so it might spread through word of mouth. I also don't get the rather low ratings for both shows, except it might be a suppression campaign, idk. >>35716 Thanks, but I only found "Zephiris" in the description of the show.

Uncommon Ingredients Anonymous 04/25/2020 (Sat) 23:20:44 No.752 [Reply]
Useful ingredients that aren't rare, but aren't in a typical (American/Western European) kitchen. MSG makes any meat dish (and some other stuff) way better. Liquid smoke is a very powerful flavor that can give new life to a dish. Nipponese shoyu folded ten thousand times has a tastier, deeper, and more complex flavor than inferior Chinese soy sauce common in the west. Sodium citrate makes it really easy to melt cheese without it becoming a pile of grease. For a lot of applications though, it's a lot easier to steam the cheese into melting (which is a vastly under-known technique).

Nuzach General #2 Unironic Ralphamale 09/26/2024 (Thu) 23:17:39 ID: da576d No.257369 [Reply] [Last]
Since the last thread Nuzach has practically made alogs his new home, dramatically increasing the amount of black dicks and cp that is posted on here bickers that's his only response when he gets assblasted on a daily basis. Old OP: Nuzach once enjoyed the prime-time bloodsports even before jcaesar187's downfall at the hands of the Гунт with by far the most stupid reasons to lose one's mind for; a good deal of 8ch veterans kept enjoying his seething about alogs until this day. But not nuzach, he was too much of a trailer trash white G​AMERGATE himself to laugh at a lolcow proper and enjoy the show. But most importantly, he was a ni/gg/er at heart. He didn't luck out with the /cow/ userbase that repeatedly mocked his inclinations to waste time playing cuckeogooms and to want to fuck children. Neither did he luck out with the administration, and his buddy John was ousted and the ni/gg/er-infested cancer known as /v/ removed from my jewish mother. As a result of my jewish mother cracking down on pedos, he lost 90% of his remaining sanity. To get told to "go and make your own site if you want to jack it to children" was the straw that broke this buck's back. As a result all his pedo buddies, those parasitic cliques that had already lost 60% of their numbers when TheTheGatorGamerGamer got rid of /hebe/ and other boards, were left without a host again. Some went to KC, others were scattered in the wind forever. Enter zzzchan, a pretty rulecucked site existing pretty much solely for the ni/gg/er pedos to play smash and jerk off to kids, where the mere suggestion that loli is pedophilic earns the poster a ban. Even the few boards that wanted none of that were eventually infested. Nuzach now spends his days seething on zzzchan about the alogs and tvch, sometimes going to those sites to seethe at the moderation and screech at "/cow/kikes" and Anita. Nuzach is definitely the main individual lolcow of the webring, the juciest one among the collective lolcow that the ni/gg/ers from zzzchan are. Banned from every board that isn't ran by pedos, he says the "/cow/kike moderation" and "feminists" are at fault for him getting banned from every place he goes to. No, it couldn't be the precious Eric, he's too good to be fairly banned.

There was a lot of discussion about how physical media will all one day be historical artifacts that will 100% be absolutely useless. While some anons saying "disc rot will eventually make all disc-based media useless", other anons defending cartridges as people knocked down those too saying the actual code within those games will eventually scramble themselves into being unplayable. So that begs the question, will eventually every piece of hardware, from the CRTs to all the original hardware, be 100% useless garbage fodder, or is there a way to utilize the original casings of the games/consoles/etc to have fresh parts within making them work? What will the hobby of retro video games look like 100 years from now, will all of these things we enjoy from the 80s and 90s be cast into the void of obscurity and loss?

Ultimately the only solution is for anons to get educations in electrical engineering and to recreate/preserve the blueprints that create these forms of physical media. Some of the best NES emulators have boards derived from the remains of NES's.

Due to the nascency of the field, there are many open questions about how red teaming operations should be conducted. Based on our experience red teaming over 100 generative AI products at Microsoft, we present our internal threat model ontology and eight main lessons we have learned: >1. Understand what the system can do and where it is applied >2. You don't have to compute gradients to break an AI system >3. AI red teaming is not safety benchmarking >4. Automation can help cover more of the risk landscape >5. The human element of AI red teaming is crucial >6. Responsible AI harms are pervasive but difficult to measure >7. LLMs amplify existing security risks and introduce new ones >8. The work of securing AI systems will never be complete >By sharing these insights alongside case studies from our operations, we offer practical recommendations aimed at aligning red teaming efforts with real world risks. We also highlight aspects of AI red teaming that we believe are often misunderstood and discuss open questions for the field to consider. https://arxiv.org/abs/2501.07238

>>35649 Interesting ideas, Robophiliac. Thanks! >variable-resolution encoding I think some wizardy with ffmpeg or other codec systems might provide you with that 'on-the-fly' variability, Anon? Maybe have two SBCs dedicated to the vision tasks onboard? Good luck, Anon! :^) >>35650 >pic I lel'd a little. I've wondered at this oft-repeated trope over the years (this film was made in the '80s sometime, I think). Why would they think a robowaifu (or terminator, in this case) would want to see a text overlay on it's visual field like it was playing some kind of vidya? :D
>>35649 >Mini-CCTV-Camera-Security-Micro-Audio-Wired Thanks. Good find. In the past I also looked at such small cameras, but these where for model airplanes. I think these were analog and it would've been a bit tricky to get the signal encoded into digital. >would it be possible to change the resolution on the fly by using a software "switch" to tell the processing computer to drop every other bit(pixel?), or to process only every 3rd or 4th bit? Or to go to black-and-white for most operations? This would be great. I had similar ideas, but rather for the computer next to the camera. Maybe some FPGA that can switch between different modes, idk? My vague idea was that the computer, or several small ones, would change the picture very fast into various formats and cuts. At least several resolutions down to very low ones, maybe removing the color, also only the center or certain parts of the picture. Maybe there's also a technique to change the color in a certain way, so the object in a color you are looking for sticks out more. Focus e.g. cutting out faces or objects would require a fast adaptive system, but the other operations should be done by something very fast and energy efficient. Maybe an ASIC, I guess. Then the system downstream would not look at video data the whole time, but only analyze the lowest amount of data to figure out what's going on.
>>35660 My headcanon is that since the neural net CPUs of the Terminators were like human brains, it helped them in some way to visually see that information.
>>35651 Thanks, GreerTech! >>35652 >Am I off here, or is that the current state basically? I think it's a good idea to experiement with current NVIDIA Jetson board if you can do so, Anon. As to the camera, I'd say to just pick the smolest one that gets the job done & is compatible with your processing board. This is an area that is under heavy R&D, so I wouldn't worry too much about waiting until "just the perfect choice" comes out. Good luck, Barf. >>35667 >pic Cute. :^) >>35680 Hehe, makes sense.

Actuators For Waifu Movement Part 3 Kiwi 12/06/2023 (Wed) 01:18:16 No.27021 [Reply] [Last]
(1stl thread >>406 2nd thread >>12810) Kiwi back again with a thread for discussing actuators to move your waifu! Part Three! Let's start with a quick introduction to common actuators! 1. DC motors, these use brushes to switch the ferrous core electromagnets on a rotor to rotate its magnetic field relative to surrounding magnets! They're one of the cheapest options with an average efficiency range of 30 to 90%. Larger DC motors and motors with higher turn counts are more efficient. 1.5 Coreless DC motors, by removing ferrous materials, losses from hysteresis are almost eliminated, dramatically increasing efficiency to nearly 90% even in small motors. Eliminating the ferrous materials reduces flux focusing, resulting in weaker fields and higher speeds. 2. Brushless DC motors (BLDC), these use a controller to switch the electromagnets on a stator to rotate the magnets of a rotor! Without brushes, they have the potential to be more efficient with higher power density compared to DC motors. Their efficiency and behavior vary depending on the algorithm and sensors used to control them. Coreless brushless motors exist but are rare and only used for very niche applications. 3. AC motors, a wide and incredibly varied category. They all rely on AC’s frequency to control them. With single phase AC motors relying on shaded poles, capacitors, or some other method to induce a rotating magnetic field. 3 phase AC motors naturally have a rotating field which usually gives them higher efficiency and power density. Notably, most AC motors are brushless. The most commonly used brushed AC motor is the universal motor, which is 4. Stepper motors, brushless motors with ferrous teeth to focus magnetic flux. This allows for incredible control (stepping) at the cost of greater mass, subsequently giving them higher rotary inertia. Usually 50 to 80% efficient depending on control algorithm/speed/and quality of the stepper. Due to their increasing mass production (& ubiquitous low cost controllers), they have appeal as a lower cost alternative to BLDC motors if one carefully designs around them. 5. Coiled Nylon Actuators! These things have an efficiency rating so low it's best to just say they aren't efficient. (0.01% typical, 2% achieved under extremely specific conditions in a lab.) Though they are exciting due to their incredible low cost of fabrication, they’re far too slow and the energy requirements are nonsensical. https://youtu.be/S4-3_DnKE9E https://youtu.be/wltLEzQnznM 6. Hydraulics! These rely on the distribution of pressure in a working liquid to move things like pistons. Though popular in large scale industry, their ability to be used in waifu's has yet to be proven. (Boston Dynamics Atlas runs on hydraulics but it's a power guzzler and heavy) Efficiency varies wildly depending on implementation. They would work great for a giantess! 7. Pneumatics, hydraulics lighter sister! This time the fluid is air! This has the advantage in weight. They aren't capable of the same power loads hydraulics are but, who wants their waifu to bench press a car? (Too loud and inefficient for mobile robotics.) 8. Wax motors, hydraulic systems where the working fluid is expanding melted (commonly paraffin) wax! Cheap, low power, and produce incredible forces! Too bad they're slow and hard to control. 9. Explosion! Yes, you can move things through explosions! Gas engines work through explosions! Artificial muscles can be made by exploding a hydrogen and oxygen mixture in a piston, then using hydrolysis to turn the water back into hydrogen and oxygen. None of this is efficient or practical but it's vital we keep our minds open! Though there are more actuators, most are derivatives or use these examples to work. Things like pulleys need an actuator to move them. Now, let's share, learn, and get our waifu moving!

Since we have no thread for hands, I'm now opening one. Aside the AI, it might be the most difficult thing to archive. For now, we could at least collect and discuss some ideas about it. There's Will Cogleys channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/WillCogley - he's on his way to build a motor driven biomimetic hand. It's for humans eventually, so not much space for sensors right now, which can't be wired to humans anyways. He knows a lot about hands and we might be able to learn from it, and build something (even much smaller) for our waifus.

Related: >>35641 >Functional evaluation of a non-assembly 3D-printed hand prosthesis > ... developed a new approach for the design and 3D printing of non-assembly active hand prostheses using inexpensive 3D printers working on the basis of material extrusion technology. This article describes the design of our novel 3D-printed hand prosthesis and also shows the mechanical and functional evaluation in view of its future use in developing countries. We have fabricated a hand prosthesis using 3D printing technology and a non-assembly design approach that reaches certain level of functionality. The mechanical resistance of critical parts, the mechanical performance, and the functionality of a non-assembly 3D-printed hand prosthesis were assessed. The mechanical configuration used in the hand prosthesis is able to withstand typical actuation forces delivered by prosthetic users. Moreover, the activation forces and the energy required for a closing cycle are considerably lower as compared to other body-powered prostheses. The non-assembly design achieved a comparable level of functionality with respect to other body-powered alternatives. We consider this prosthetic hand a valuable option for people with arm defects in developing countries. https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/epub/10.1177/0954411919874523

Galatea: Maid Robot GreerTech 11/13/2024 (Wed) 10:20:10 No.34324 [Reply] [Last]
For the last year, I have been working on my own robowaifu design. I call her Galatea. The design is very easy to build with the instructions and files, and is relatively very cheap, around $295 to make. It's also very customizable, you can choose the color, dress, hair, and even AI. I intend this to be the Model T of humanoid robots and robotic companions, while it is not the most complex, it is easy to mass produce and cheap.

>>35522 Neat! Good to hear of the progress, GreerTech. Looking forward to seeing your results here. Cheers. :^)
>>34869 >>25783 >>25784 I'd like to suggest going the route of using a used hoverboard as the motive power for your base. They are usually rated to carry 220lbs and run on 36+ volts. Check flea markets and thrift stores like Goodwill or St. Vincent de Paul. I got my last one for $5.
>>35524 I've considered it, but I abandoned it because I would need extensive modifications to have the same features, remote control, mopping, and vacuuming. I will also need to buy it new, as I intend to make it able to be replicated. I will also need to make it be driven without leaning. Maybe in the future when I'm better at engineering, I could have a raspberry pi/arduino connected to the motors, while leaving the self-balancing intact.
I finished Galatea Version 2.1.0. Now I'm working on the "post-production", manual, website uploads, etc. I'll make a new thread when I'm done, because it's a different design from the 1.0, and my files are deleted.
>>35577 Excellent, GreerTech! Looking forward to this release. Cheers. :^)

>>35571 >$3K for compute isn't either unreasonable or unexpected. I agree, but that, to me, is a problem. If compute is $3,000 I can't make a capable doll for $3,000, which I have now, with inflation, pulled a number out of hat saying this would be a good selling point. Before it was $2,000 but I don't think it's possible. As I have said before if you could get one to $2,000 that was capable, you could sell them in mass quantities. >More like <US$500 Yes that would be ideal. Maybe I didn't make myself clear. I want something more than a doll and I feel the computing power, right now, is too expensive for what I want. Though I just had an epiphany. I think I might could possibly make a doll cheaper than what they have now and more capable while not having all the things I want.

I'm sure Robophilliac has some has something interesting cooking and I just need to LET HIM COOK. I would not want my pragmatic outlook to be mistaken as doom pilled on the robotwaifu question. Rather, I fear feature creep more than anything else. Bipedal locomotion is a big ask unto itself, never mind the laundry list of features like integrated AI chat, realistic skin, long battery life, wombs, and more. Even a humble quradped or wheeled waifubot still requires a great deal of engineering. While my "hugbot" concept was somewhat of a shitpost, that high-speed low-drag design philosophy of "cut away the fat and reduce down to only the most necessary components" I think is important for creating bots that are both affordable and easier to build than more feature rich creations. Hugbot might be a little too stripped down but as the image suggests, other parts could be added at the owner's discretion. I have the same sentiment towards screen faces. With them, you don't need to worry about mechanical mouth articulation, (lips, cheek, & jaw), eye movement, or eyebrows. That's not counting all the subtle face movements needed to keep a human-like creature from appearing uncanny. It has its own set of problems being a screen face but it avoids a number of different mechanical hurdles in exchange for a screen interface you can swap out if it becomes damaged. Their interFACE(hue) can also double smart device which is always nifty. >>35579 Whatever the solution, lighter & cheaper would be better in most cases. Hopefully without reducing the structural strength along the way. My only issue with plastics would be the emerging news of microplastics being found all over our bodies. I suppose the most important attribute of a waifu crafting material would be they don't harm us. Hypoallergenic fears aside, an internal frame that could be fitted with a fleece body glove might be a workable solution. Something easy to clean and replace like you would a pillowcase.

I get that. Trust me, I'm trying to understand everywhere we can possibly reduce costs. An RPi5 w/ 8GB is about US$55 rn IIRC. This is a more powerful cheap computer than we could have imagined having in a mobile system just 10 years ago I think; so yeah, gimme 4. :^) And there are much less expensive systems as well, but it's all a matter of divvying up the compute load across a variety of distributed, internetworked onboard devices (think a modern car's 30+ smol computers) to really bring the costs down in this area. That takes engineering complex distributed computing algorithms; so there's an innate cost there in software development as well. Neuromorphics (mentioned several times on this board by yours truly & others) [1] also hold great promise in reducing our costs quite dramatically, once we're at scale sufficient for designing & mass-producing such custom PCBs/electronics. >>35582 I'll plan to give you a response a bit later Anon.

Poseidon, former right-winger grifter and Pagan LARPer / Neet shitskin and schizo Brian Holloman 03/19/2022 (Sat) 23:19:42 ID: 90501c No.141211 [Reply] [Last]
Poseidon is one of those many grifters who started getting into the "redpill" bus around 2016 by making videos about immigration in Europe. As "greek-sicilian" he was said to have a more European opinion than the average right-wingers from UK, German and USA about all subjects. However, he never became popular in circles like 4chan /pol/, with only 8chan /pol/ paying any attention to him and a few European anons. In 2018 he had his former channel take down, creating a second channel (his actual one). But since 2019 he started to show himself to be a little less mature and socially successful as he claimed. During weekends, he started doing livestreams called "Whitepilled weekend" in which it constituted of him quietly reading news with his heavy accent while free-copyright music played in the background. Note that as a European, he started these streams every weekend around 2am in European time. Over time, these livestreams began to gain a share of trolls, mocking the fact that Poseidon, who was said to be a mature man, of family, spent every weekend awake hoping to get donations and seething about any jokes about him on chat. After 8chan /pol/ notice that Poseidon didn't take criticism well and was openly banning anyone with the slightest criticism of him the views started to drop and more trolls started to show up. Over time, he stopped those livestreams, according to him, the Catholic Church was being responsible for his troll problems, by sending the trolls together with american Daily Stormer trolls. With that, his first signs of schizophrenia and narcissism showed. In 2020 Poseidon has embarked on the covid wave, and started bleeding views and subscribers. His videos about immigration and politics in Europe stopped and he started to make videos saying how Donald Trump is a massive loser retard and same about any people who supported him, to the point of making a sequence of videos proving that Biden won the election legitimately. Interspersed with videos about Biden being a "chad", he made multiple videos about covid restrictions and vaccine. In these videos, he was totally in favor of forced vaccination, use of masks and severe restrictions. With that, his views, which he now denounces as "far-right" and "Crazy Christians" started jumping off the boat and making serious criticisms about him. How Poseidon reacted? He started replying, comment by comment, personally attacking anyone criticizing him. He would look at anyone's Youtube channel criticizing him and find any detail about the person's personal life or their taste in games, music, etc. He also obsessively started attacking any Americans or Christians in the comments of his videos even if some of those didn't show any criticism about him. Some of the videos around this time had their comment section locked. At the same time, he made a video saying that the right-winger movement was being controlled by the Catholic Church, KGB and American elite. That it would be impossible for Europe to prosper as long as Christians lived in Europe or people voted for politics with any connection with Russia or USA, once again attacking any European politics who have met at any time in their lives with Putin or Trump or are against covid restrictions. Even his old opinions about immigration changed, now he denounces "White Genocide" as a conspiracy theory made up by crazy far-right incels and says the Elite is right to want to have more low-cost employees in Europe and North America and Christians are just worried about being replaced with Muslims and don't care about anything else. With that, he lost around 3k subscribers in this year so far, with downvotes being predominant. So he started making videos claiming he was being attacked by NeoNazis and Christians who had the goal of dox him and his family, although there is no evidence that anyone really cared enough about him to do so. How the far-right are the true terrorists when compared to Antifa and he was being unfairly attacked by extremists and genocidal idiots who wish for the end of the world instead of getting a vaccine. From above 25k subscribers, now his channel has less than 6k subs.

ESTROGENIC FAGGYISM is a kike faggot attention whore, and the current scourge of IBS. An unholy combination of Kikochet and Gaytor, Steve Wright spends his days sweeping endlessly for Гунт, all while desperately grasping at ecelebdom by self inserting into any drama he can with the most retarded fucking takes imaginable. He comes onto /cow/ frequently under different IPs trying to push his gay narratives and muddy the waters. His primary function is reposting clips and images he finds on Foxdick and here onto his Twitter and YouTube, claiming that they are his copyrighted works. In his ultimate retardation, he issues DMCA strikes against those who use his lazy clips in his real name, leading to Cog doxing his identity in an extremely rare based moment. Much like how faggots such as Randy Williams and KikestorianX removed the fun from any sort of jcaesar187 derision due to their association with it, EsoFaggy did the same with the semi-ironic ГунтGuarding movement as a result of his excessive queer behavior, and he needs to be reprimanded for doing so. Steve began his sham of a career through actions just as shameful as the ones he engages in now, with his primary sin being the dickriding of the savior of IBS, Christianity, and the white race: our hero Mormon Shaggy. Mr. Wright teamed up with the likes of Earjuice to try to coax Shaggy into suicide, along the way doing his best to tarnish the Christian faith and abet the gender transitions of thousands of minors. After picking up steam by participating in the broader IBS sphere, EsoFaggy decided to go all in on this faggotry, whiteknighting Гунт and running with every retarded AF movement like the Kanye campaign across all corners of the Internet, finally garnering the precious online attention he had always desired. He continues to do this to this day. Much like how Kikochet resigned after the dox exposing his name, business, and location surfaced, Steve Wright will likely do the same if such information were to come out about him. By placing him in the crosshairs, the hope is that he will return to his lair of darkness and solitude, abandoning his post as the chief faggot of the sphere out of cowardice. Although he goes out of his way to obstruct his time zone from being revealed bickers he’s a massive pussy, it is not impossible to uncover who this filthy negro is, with the most helpful piece of information being his real name. This thread should service as a place to mock this reject for his nonstop faggotry and post relevant dox information.

I Fucked Up Robi Board owner 12/17/2024 (Tue) 23:36:58 No.3 [Reply]
Hello all. I fucked up. What happened? Earlier last month, we stopped fitting into the storage space of our backend VPS. To fix this, I had to buy extra storage space. This storage space comes as a separate product from the VPS itself, and for BuyVM, is on a different billing schedule. I purchased the storage on the 12th of November. The e-mail used for billing notifications is not directly tied to Alogs for both opsec reasons and to avoid issues with receiving notifications to a service that may be down. However, I stopped receiving notifications on my phone for that e-mail a while back and forgot to investigate it. What's the situation? Earlier today, the storage was suspended for overdue payment, taking all of the LynxChan data with it. Support told me data is wiped as soon as the storage is suspended, so they can't bring it back. All post contents (the actual post text) are backed up daily automatically, and so I was able to restore them until earlier today. However, the file data is not backed up as we don't have enough storage space on the main VPS anymore to back it up automatically. The latest (and only) backup I had of file data was from September 13th, 2023. This means that all files uploaded after September 13th, 2023 are missing. What now? I'm working on a remedy. I will spend this week working on a LynxChan addon that checks if an uploaded file actually exists on disk, and if not, repopulates it. I will then create a special (hidden) board which users can upload files to in order to restore files to existing posts without cluttering up threads. I have also set up payment reminders in multiple places, re-enabled notifications for billing e-mails, and committed to a manual file data backup on the first of each month. Automated backups of file data are unfortunately still not possible. Even if we backed up to the storage space, the backup would be gone along with the original copy. Conclusion This was entirely my fuckup, and I'm sorry for that. I should have taken a backup right after implementing the new storage solution. I've been inattentive to the board due to extra business from work before Christmas break, and this happened the day before I go on my break.

Making money with AI and robowaifus Robowaifu Technician 11/30/2019 (Sat) 03:07:12 No.1642 [Reply] [Last]
The greatest challenge to building robowaifus is the sheer cost of building robots and training AI. We should start brainstorming ways we can leverage our abilities with AI to make money. Even training AI quickly requires expensive hardware and computer clusters. The faster we can increase our compute power, the more money we can make and the quicker we can be on our way to building our robowaifus. Art Generation Waifu Labs sells pillows and posters of the waifus it generates, although this has caused concern and criticism due to it sometimes generating copyrighted characters from not checking if generated characters match with training data. https://waifulabs.com/ Deepart.io provides neural style transfer services. Users can pay for expedited service and high resolution images. https://deepart.io/ PaintsChainer takes sketches and colours them automatically with some direction from the user, although it's not for profit it could be turned into a business with premium services. https://paintschainer.preferred.tech/index_en.html I work as an artist and have dabbled with training my own AIs that can take a sketch and generate many different thumbnails that I've used to finish paintings. I've also created an AI that can generate random original thumbnails from a training set. In the future when I have more compute power my goal is to create an AI that does the mundane finishing touches to my work which consumes over 80% of my time painting. Applying AI to art will have huge potential in entertainment and marketing for animation, games and virtual characters. Market Research

I found this project and it looks interesting. Robots wives appeal to me because i'm convinced human woman and humans in general have flaws that make having close relationships with them a waste of energy. I'm a pathetic freshman engineering student who knows barely anything about anything. Honestly, I think current technology isn't at a place that could produce satisfying results for me at least. I'd like something better than an actual person, not a compromise. Even then the technology is there, I have my doubts it'll be affordable to make on your own. Fingers crossed though. Anyway, what kind of behavior would you like from your robot wife? I'd like mine to be unemotional, lacking in empathy, stoic and disinterested in personal gain or other people.

What programming language would suit us and our waifus best? For those of us with limited experience programming, it's a daunting question.
Would a language with a rigid structure be best?
Do we want an object-oriented language?
How much do you care about wether or not a given language is commonly used and widespread?
What the fuck does all that terminology mean?
Is LISP just a meme, or will it save us all?

In this thread, we will discuss these questions and more so those of us who aren't already settled into a language can find our way.

Reposting my post (>>35354) from the "LLM & Chatbot General" thread, because it makes more sense in here. Packing Python is pretty cancer, PyInstaller is a heap of useless shit on some systems. May I suggest Lua instead? It has a simpele syntax, and can actually be packed in static binaries [1] and the are relatively small. The only issue would be the libraries, AFAIK there are no pure Lua LLM/AI libraries, so C bindings would need to be created. [1] https://github.com/ers35/luastatic
>>35379 its an embedded language though, youre supposed to stick the lua shell in the source code of the program and build around it to allow whatever you want the scripts to do, im guessing just sticking it in a binary that wasnt written with having a shell in mind would be no different from running the program in a debugger
>>35380 Well, it's an excellent embedded language for sure, but that doesn't mean it won't work if you aren't embedding it, and are just using it as you would with Python. I dropped Python completely from my programming workflow and replaced it with Lua completely, and have yet to run into big issues tbh

So those of us getting ready to make prototypes are still pretty far away from building the $2000 kits that we need to buildm. This sucks because we are going to be spending a lot on the initial investments, but I think I know how we can make a little money on the side to help on the side; twitch and fansonly. Betas and simps give their money to thots all the time on those site I'm positive they would give money to a crude prototype especially if it offered something unique. Bonus points because we are making money of simps, and we are taking business from thots. If you have any idea on how to make money in the early stages feel free to share them, anon. > related thread: >>1642

Here's a video about the "factory" a guy made to make controllers for carnival rides and Halloween shows. Of course complete robots or kits for them would be far more complex devices, but if you are thinking of setting up your own small (to start) business, it's a look at some of what would be involved, just a small example so you won't be completely overwhelmed and just give up.

>>35270 >Do you anticipate you'll make the attempt to fashion some kind of mold and do some experiments with this stuff? It takes me forever to do physical experiments. I've bought some of the stuff needed do experiments. It's progress but slow. I don't have the time, energy (I'm old) to do the making parts "fast", but I have time to look stuff up and I've slowly been gathering materials. I do have fiberglass and canvas for experiments. I am going to order some of these plastisol resins. I "think", if what they are selling is what plastosol is normally by name, that this is PVC that is pour-able and activated by heat. I'm interested if you can vary the hardness far above "worm cast" level in the plastisol to make a harder substance with the hardener. How hard can it get???? The quarts are $15 or so, so they are not too bad. The cost of these is super reasonable compared to most other plastics you can cast. Though they do require heating to react. Another experiment I want to do it to pour this stuff between two thin glass sheets to make a strong window for my boat. Normal boat windows are acrylic (super expensive) and it scratches. With two glass faces and clear PVC in between you would think it would be super strong. Of course this remains to be seen. Some stuff I have ordered, some I have and why I have and/or need it. I just ordered some 12,000 grit aluminium oxide(Al2O3) to attempt to make gears, functional parts in 3D printed casting molds. I believe using carbon fiber/fiberglass and/or some combination you can make gears/bearings/functional parts. I talked about this here, and I think I have a game plan for accomplishing this. >>28200 You use the Al2O3 to provide a very hard facing which also fills in gaps in the carbon fiber. I also have fumed silica and milled fiberglass to add to this(these having different micron size). I believe there is a vast amount of things that can be made out of composites traditionally made with machining of metals but using the strength of carbon fiber/fiberglass with fillers for facing. Some of these could not be made "easily", or at all, with machine tools but I think can be trivially done(in comparison), with 3D printed molds and composite materials. Here's the general idea. When you make super strong concrete, you need to fill all the spaces and have very little of the concrete "glue" paste. The same goes for composites. Carbon fiber is super strong, but not necessarily a hard facing. It can be abraded. The key, I believe, is to have the general shape of functional parts like bearing/gears and have an outer layer of super fine, well packed, hard, strong materials, like noted above, as a very thin film, (note, this is VERY thin). Only enough to fit in the pores of the carbon fiber mesh that is placed above it. Below this could be, not sure yet, some layers of carbon fiber and below that fiberglass. As you notice, you are making a layered material varying in hardness/stiffness and using less of the hard stuff (and mostly more expensive). You end up with a super accurate, hard finish, with a more flexible interior on your parts. EXACTLY what you need. Textbook super strong composites with hard , and strong, faces. You need this for ball and socket joints, gear faces, bearing faces, etc.

cont. My priorities are: 1.tree trimming/felling/removal robot.(not humanoid, more like a insect/squid/thing that climbs trees and "shears" off the limbs. Not cut with a chain saw. Far more efficient, quieter, less mess) 2. gears, wenches, tackle, inductive reactance electric motors, fiberglass or other structures for the above and for my sailboat (which is so radical I fear to talk about the hair brained ideas I have. If I were to do so the sailboating community would hunt me down like Frankenstein with torches and pitchforks) :) robowaifu However all of the above are all necessary to build the parts for a robowaifu, and DIRECTLY related. So it may be I will mesh all of these at the same time as I learn. As you can imagine this will take...a while. I can see the robowaifu last, as I haven't a clue how to build the software to get this thing to do what I want. It's, I think, a huge leap far above making the motors, body, etc. I can see a clear path to all of the mechanical side. Maybe not easy, but I can see a path. The AI, I have no idea without spending a damn fortune which would torpedo the whole thing. I REALLY would like it as it would be a great addition to the first task, tree trimming/felling/removal. Sailing my boat as a sort of auto-pilot and other unmentionables. As you've seen me commenting over a year, I was spitballing ideas. I like to write these down even if they are a bit hairbained. For some reason writing them down, even if it makes me look foolish at times, helps me "see" them and organize my thoughts. Hard to explain. I now believe I have a basic game plan, and I'm now accumulating the tools, materials needed. I have the 3D printer and the beginnings of the materials needed. So soon I should start experimenting. I also have ordered and received, some ESP-32 microcontrollers. I still need a few more things. Lots of bits and pieces. I will definitely be getting some of this plastisol resin. Some of this stuff I talked about I ran across a guy, tech ingredients, who has this great video. I didn't get all my ideas from him but he puts a lot of them in a nice package, which I'm not so good at. Most of the ideas I have are just common sense and thinking about it leads people to the same path. If you want to understand how to get low cost strong stuff, you have to see it. He's doing something different, making body armor, but the basic principles are the same. The first video is about hard surfaces, tight material packing and different materials needed. The second is basic composites and good but someone who already knows about composites might could skip it, but I think it's useful.

One other thing I have already. I've been working on accumulating stuff I need slowly. Cerrosafe Metal | Low-Melting Point 158-190℉ Bismuth-Based Alloy I have a pound of this. So you make a mold and put this in the mold. My thought is the areas in the NASA chainmail that are internal. Stuff that can't be molded. I make a negative mold of all these interior parts from this metal, place in outer mods, pour resin, matrix, then melt the metal out with hot water. It's reusable indefinitely. I only have a pound but it's plenty to test with.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY /ROBOWAIFU/ Robowaifu Technician Board owner 11/27/2019 (Wed) 17:27:05 No.1591 [Reply] [Last]
8th Birthday Edition greeting here: (>>34520) --- >original (albeit a bit edited) OP follows: Well it's Thanksgiving time again and that means it's /robowaifu/s birthday time too. It's been 3 full years since we began, and this last one has been a bit of a ride tbh. With the deplatforming of 8ch all of us who had communities there were mostly left out in the cold. Thankfully we've been given a new home here in our bunkerhome at JulaynuJulay, and a few of us have found our way back together here. Hopefully the rest of us will find Julay, and /robowaifu/ again as well. We've also made some new friends since we've been here, and I think we're in pretty good shape all things considered. On the topic of deplatforming, we have a new archival system in action that keeps a copy of the board up to date on my machine. Note that my original intent was to fully automate the archive.today archives, but it hasn't worked properly (they seem to be fighting against bots pretty hard now). I hope at least one other of you will also join in for the approach that's actually working, and use BUMP to keep at least one other copy of /robowaifu/ safe in addition to my own. You never know what might happen to my gear (or even to me), and it's just smart thinking to have at least two of us keeping this board safe. My intent is to finish up the system for board migrations (along with Robi), and then bring over other things from the old files and get this board in shape again. Then we can keep it fully backed up together. As you regulars know, /robowaifu/ is basically unique among imageboards and well-deserves preservation IMO. Any other takers for doing backups as well? I just use a cronjob and it's all fully automatic daily I never have to touch it. I'll explain everything in detail how to do it if anyone else wants to participate. One other thing; should anything ever happen to Julay, just regroup on Fatchan Anoncafe Trashchan in our bunker there. Actually, I'm pretty upbeat about both the world of IB communities in general, and our own /robowaifu/ in particular. We all took a hard knock a few months ago, but we're back on our feet and in the fight again. Kudos in particular to both Julay and Smug for their innovations with the webring introduction. It's lent a resilience to the underlying systems for all our various communities that we've never had before afaict. This alone should help to ensure we have a long future of shitposting together anons. Anyway moving on, I hope this coming year will also see a resurgence in everyone's posts here about their personal projects. I intend to do so myself. It's always a pleasure to see Anon's efforts and blog-posts about their current attempts and ideas, regardless whether they are successes or failures. Persistence is really the single most important factor for eventual success--even more than innate talent--and so just don't quit anon! Don't be afraid to get back in the game even if you met with failure before. Try something different this time, right?

Cognitivie Architecture : Discussion Kiwi 08/22/2023 (Tue) 05:03:37 No.24783 [Reply] [Last]
Chii Cogito Ergo Chii Chii thinks, therefore Chii is. Cognitive architecture is the study of the building blocks which lead to cognition. The structures from which thought emerges. Let's start with the three main aspects of mind; Sentience: Ability to experience sensations and feelings. Her sensors communicate states to her. She senses your hand holding hers and can react. Feelings, having emotions. Her hand being held bring her happiness. This builds on her capacity for subjective experience, related to qualia. Self-awareness: Capacity to differentiate the self from external actors and objects. When presented with a mirror, echo, or other self referential sensory input is recognized as the self. She sees herself in your eyes reflection and recognizes that is her, that she is being held by you. Sapience: Perception of knowledge. Linking concepts and meanings. Able to discern correlations congruent with having wisdom. She sees you collapse into your chair. She infers your state of exhaustion and brings you something to drink. These building blocks integrate and allow her to be. She doesn't just feel, she has qualia. She doesn't see her reflection, she sees herself reflected, she acknowledges her own existence. She doesn't just find relevant data, she works with concepts and integrates her feelings and personality when forming a response. Cognition, subjective thought reliant on a conscious separation of the self and external reality that integrates knowledge of the latter. A state beyond current AI, a true intellect. This thread is dedicated to all the steps on the long journey towards a waifu that truly thinks and feels.

>>10063 Yeah but ironically Ivo Robotnik himself is literally how the nips view super smart Germans/Americans. Hes a fat red haired turboautist that creates his own civilization all by himself and colonizes other lands. Jews cannot create and so the idea that robotnik is a jew cannot be true. On top of this he plasters his face on everything, something kikes are always afraid to do. He also made his own daughter and loves living, jews hate life.
>>10064 >he plasters his face on everything, something kikes are always afraid to do >but call him a jew and see how he recoils how injured he is
>>10065 How is robotnik jewish? Often times I never see a concrete reason for it, he literally seems like a colonizing chud.
>>10066 >colonizing >chud Even if you were somewhat more innocent when you were younger, fren, today you are clearly part of the (((brainwashed))) problem. GTFO.
>>10067 Explain how I'm brainwashed, I'll listen, and I'm aware the term chud isn't often used around the older 8chan remnants but my lurking of zoomer imageboards had it leak out. I don't see what's wrong with Europeans colonizing places because someone else would have colonized if we hadn't, like how the Aztecs colonized all of what would later become New Spain Mexico and how the Roaches colonized parts of Europe because Christianity left Europe divided. I just think people hate on Europe and by extension Nippon because they copied Europeans because >we were the most successful at it. You'll never see a Mongolian feel any remorse for their colonizing exploits. I just don't think Robotnik is Jewish, I can't understand the argument in the older games if you want Sonic to be hedgehog Hitler, but his grandfather's creation of Shadow, the ultimate life form to help mankind isn't something a jew could due, nor would the great care he gave to his obviously Aryan Grand-Daughter Maria. Robotnik literally comes across as an autistic Germanic Natzee hunting for hidden artifacts when he teams up with chaos to awaken his power. Robotnik ultimately creates and that isn't something Jews are capable of. He is very much an indicative of the Faustian bargain of modern western civilization because he is willing to destroy a lot to get what he wants, this is for better, or worse, and mostly for worse in his case.

Robowaifu Simulator Robowaifu Technician 09/12/2019 (Thu) 03:07:13 No.155 [Reply] [Last]
What would be a good RW simulator. I guess I'd like to start with some type of PCG solution that just builds environments to start with and build from there up to characters.

It would be nice if the system wasn't just pre-canned, hard-coded assets and behaviors but was instead a true simulator system. EG, write robotics control software code that can actually calculate mechanics, kinematics, collisions, etc., and have that work correctly inside the basic simulation framework first with an eye to eventually integrating it into IRL Robowaifu mechatronic systems with little modifications. Sort of like the OpenAI Gym concept but for waifubots.

>>35179 I'm working on the cad for the body. Its important to me that it has an adjustable spine because that will play a bit part in making the robot flexible. I will share the cad but I don't and it to be public. I want to share it with people that will be working on this. Please invite me on github https://github.com/peteblank The choice of her body being thicc is not only because of preference but because it needs to house the components. The weight distribution will also be selected based on the center of gravity. The center of gravity should be on the middle(I think) I have a theory that it ought to have a decent chest weight to act as a counterweight for the spine pulling(think of the stability of pulling a bag of cement vs puling a wrench) I'm planning on making the test robot walk near the end of January. it'll have empty boxes on the chest to add and take away weights to test the balance. Since its been decided the simulation should be on isaac(i'd prefer gazebo because its the industry standard and you can get a job with it) Can't find any gazebo/nvidia isaac tutorials atm
>>35202 no seems isaac is the industry standard now. ok then.

In 2016, a man was arrested in Guatemala, accused of killing 21 women. His name was Gustavo Porta-Cuesta Fuentes, he was 31 years old and lived on the Guatemalan coast. In the extensive backyard of his house they found more than a dozen bodies/bones belonging to young women. Porta-Cuesta was a civil servant and held a high position in the government, so the case was hushed up and all records disappeared. Even his name was erased. Therefore, there is no information left on the web about this case. He was sentenced to hang and was expected to be executed around 2022. What happened is that, in the middle of this year I received a file containing a folder with several sound pieces. Porta-Cuesta was an amateur musician and recorded experimental music on weird albums by the pseudonym LFC. The content of this was leaked and I am making this file available on the internet. The download is free and clean. The material is very strange, listen at your own risk. The link is this: https://www.mediafire.com/file/bq9w4rgn8ud1mvj/ALBUMS_-_LFC.rar/file
