>>35925 >What would you do with it? I have a few ideas <think> Okay, the user greeted me with "Hi there! How are you today?" 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?

Funposting ( >>35942 ) aside, this appears to be actual news that bears on robowaifus perhaps.

>>35922 >Thanks for the concrete advice, Anon. Seriously, I wish you would create a tutorial for all of us newfags. One that didn't immediately send us into a tailspin over Python dependency-hell would actually be very nice! :^) That's exactly what's needed for widespread adoption. A detailed tutorial, and eventually a complete software package, that can be run simply on a computer like any commercial or psuedo-commerical software. TL:DR: For widespread adoption, we need a semi-capitalist mindset and think of the average consumer.

>>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.

>>35946 >I'm excited to have much more dumbed down circuitry like this and to get to working on this soon. >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. This sounds exciting, Artbyrobot. I hope you can prove your thesis about the simplified control approach soon. As Kiwi and others here have mentioned (in effect): The most reliable actuator is the one that isn't there! Cheers, Anon. :^) >=== -sp, minor edit

@Kiwi Can you check the final video of crosslink-related : ( >>35675 ) please? At about 8mins, there's a humanoid torso/bust attached to a more-standard mobile robot base. I know we here are going for a full, 4-limb robowaifu, but maybe we can design some sort of mobile 'scooter' she can step onto that would both motivator her around on smooth surfaces, but also support her with it's base mass for doing tasks like reaching & moving things? For example a basket of laundry. I'm sure we've covered these concepts before in throd#1 : ( >>15630 ). inb4 tachikoma spooder... :D >>35691 Thanks, GreerTech! Some of these look quite advanced. I've been a believer in us here following the medical prosthetics industry, at the least for inspiration.

Close to a truly finalized design.

>>35938 Neat! GG, Kiwi. :^) I'm a little concerned about a pinch hazard between the hips & thighs though. Will there be some kind of covering there?

>>35951 OK, I LOL'd despite my better judgement. :D One big advantage of BJD designs is to reduce pinch hazards at the joints. I'd simply like us to capitalize on that idea for our group project here. Cheers. :^)

Here's the completed 110% print. This vise worked perfectly for a grip. I ordered robovac mop that comes with remote, then a universal IR remote with mic and keyboard, and a remote controlled fleshlight. Seems like it should fit perfect!

>>35871 Nice! Good job, the color is really beautiful. I can't wait to see the next step

Scarlet says goodnight! Happy to report I can carry 5 pounds on my base even at 110% and with mop water. Pretty fun to drive around with the remote. I'm still waiting for universal IR\Keyboard\Mic\Mouse remote Can also confirm stroker works with just a sock around it to keep vibration down

>>35945 Tell Scarlet that I said Goodnight and that she looks beautiful. Also tell her I'm glad to see her progressing and I'm excited to see what's next!

>>35945 Excellent! Nice work, Barf. Can't wait to see Scarlet motivator'g around the house. Can you please share videos sometime? Cheers. :^) >update: Lol, it just occurred to me: please keep it SFW! :D Just stuff like her doing things around your house for you. >=== -add 'update' note -minor edit

>>35879 >>35895 >>35896 Verily, I must inquire as to the purpose of feeding your art into such an infernal machine! One worries as to the machinations of such a despicable engine of anti-creativity as the Artificial Intellects so used in the pursuit not of artistry, but in its suppression, its derision. Why debase your hard work? Why let a machine, whose ultimate output is nothing more than an aggregate of what the input *should* look like, tagged and weighed like a cadaver in a mortuary, decide what to do with your art?

doing a comic for my nan any sugestion on the transitions so far?

>>35921 looks fine

Too much AI this thread >>35921 Don't care for the sketch style

Welp, we here on /robowaifu/ predicted this very thing during our first year back on 8chan. Opinions? What will you do Anon, if they tell you that you can't print your own robowaifu someday? https://www.tomshardware.com/news/ny-bill-bans-3d-printers https://www.msn.com/en-us/technology/tech-companies/new-ny-bill-would-require-a-background-check-to-buy-a-3d-printer/vi-AA1xmh7q https://gizmodo.com/new-york-proposes-doing-background-checks-on-anyone-buying-a-3d-printer-2000551811

>>35750 I wouldn't worry yet. Bills are basically suggestions, and it failed before. And even then, I see no mention of this beyond New York. And even if it was implemented worldwide, it wouldn't affect our goals. TL:DR: Don't worry about something until it actually happens.

>>35750 > anti tech hysteria We are always one public uproar away from some dumb decisions being made. Face swappers on GitHub seem to be in trouble, at least if they support NSFW. ReActor just went dark: https://github.com/Gourieff/comfyui-reactor-node >This repository has been disabled. >Access to this repository has been disabled by GitHub Staff due to a violation of GitHub's terms of service. If you are the owner of the repository, you may reach out to GitHub Support for more information. This might be related to 'romance scams' now using AI and that foolish woman divorcing her rich husband and losing 800k to some scammer claiming to be Brad Pit, who is more like what she really deserves, or so she thought ... (Btw: >>3119) and apparently there are more such cases. Of course this, or at least the reporting, might just be a campaign. Though, this case isn't related to NSFW which might bug some celebrity women and people concerned about fake CP based on real children. Maybe that's the reason for the takedown of the ReActor repo. Whatever. Nothing is safe. Mirror (blocking NSFW): https://github.com/Gourieff/ComfyUI-ReActor This older version allegedly still works with NSFW: https://github.com/Gourieff/ComfyUI-ReActor/tree/ccfade1 Imo, the face swapping tech could be useful to keep characters consistent. Imaging AI making a good video, but the face changes too much. The face swap might help. Especially if someone wanted to make a longer video with different scenes trying to keep the characters consistent.

>>35889 >top-end Bambu Labs printer for detailed robowaifu parts work. Now I find out they are forcing the printers to be on the cloud before printing. I'm not so sure this is true. "...What is LAN Mode? LAN Mode is a feature that allows Bambu Lab printers to work in a local area network, and communicate with the slicer for sending files and monitoring without requiring internet access..." https://wiki.bambulab.com/en/knowledge-sharing/enable-lan-mode https://www.reddit.com/r/BambuLab/comments/152xlpe/bambu_lab_life_without_internetcloud/ I don't have one yet but my opinion is to buy the mini. Any larger parts can be cut in smaller sections, joining brackets added, print and then the pieces glued together. 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. One plastic is, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polycaprolactone

After I wrote the above I thought, is fiberglass stronger than human bones so I asked and the AI "DuckAssist" said. DuckAssist BETA "Fiberglass can be very strong, with some types reaching tensile strengths of up to 2,358 MPa, which can be comparable to or even exceed the strength of human bones. However, the specific strength can vary depending on the type of fiberglass and its construction."

>>35889 and I forgot to ask how do you add this code or deal with it?

>>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.
