Artificial Wombs general Robowaifu Technician 09/12/2019 (Thu) 03:11:54 No.157 [Reply] [Last]
I think we need to figure out how to fit a womb onto a waifubot. Where's the fun in having sex if you can't procreate?

Repost from a thread on /b/;
>"If you're like me and want to fuck a qt battlebot and get her pregnant, the best place to put an artificial womb is where a normal womb would be on a normal girl. The metal exterior could simply be a bunch of metal plates that unfold to allow space for the womb pod inside. The baby is probably safest inside the battlebot, and if she has good calibration then there shouldn't be problems with her falling and hurting the baby. After giving birth the metal plates could automatically fold back up again, shrinking the womb pod inside so she is combat effective again."

Well /robowaifu/? Feasible?

>>42765 > I can't detect any artifacts that make me think it's 3D CGI The video has enough compression that any AI artifacts (eg noise) would be canceled out by the compression algorithm. AI generated images/videos always have a level of noise that make it difficult to use a magic wand/fuzzy select. Add some blur and decrease the resolution and you can pretty much eliminate it. Again, I would LOVE for it to be real but the industry has been burned before. If I'm wrong we all get neat robots, but if I'm right we've been bamboozled. I'd be glad to be wrong but at least if I'm right I get to say "I told you so" lol
>>42772 >The video has enough compression that any AI artifacts (eg noise) would be canceled out by the compression algorithm. Ehh, fair enough. But I think I've developed a pretty good eye through the years to pick out CGI work. They usually get the lighting wrong. No signs of that I can see there. :^) >I'd be glad to be wrong but at least if I'm right I get to say "I told you so" lol Kek. Fair enough then. Time will tell. Cheers. :^)

OTOH, if we can learn from and capitalize on their ideas for opensource robowaifu systems, then we should do so IMO.

Galatea v3 Series: Maid Robot GreerTech 05/01/2025 (Thu) 00:54:37 No.38070 [Reply] [Last]
For the past year, I have been working on my own robowaifu design. Her name is Galatea. She's currently in the v3 Series. The design is very easy to build with the instructions and files, and is relatively very cheap, around $400 to make. She'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. As of this post, her latest version is v3.0.2 Previous thread: https://trashchan.xyz/robowaifu/thread/74.html

>>42809 Man, I don't know the first thing about how to program an AR hologram waifu, let alone attach her to a Morph Ball that can move around. I've seen a few examples of AR hologram waifus, but none that are attached to a mobile robot. Ideally I'd like this to be a sort of parallel project for robowaifu development. It can be used as not only a visual waifu, but also as a test bed for physical robowaifu systems development. It's possible that AR systems could be used to direct a physical robowaifu's movement, and an AR sphere could integrate with a physical robowaifu for various tasks. But that's undermined by the fact that I don't have any idea to do it. But yes, I should take this to another thread better suited for it, or else just make a new thread.

DCC Design Tools & Training Robowaifu Technician 09/18/2019 (Wed) 11:42:32 No.415 [Reply] [Last]
Creating robowaifus requires lots and lots of design and artistry. It's not all just nerd stuff you know Anon! :^) ITT: Add any techniques, tips, tricks, or content links for any Digital Content Creation (DCC) tools and training to use when making robowaifus. >note: This isn't the 'Post Your Robowaifu-related OC Arts & Designs General' thread. We'll make one of those later perhaps. >--- I spent some time playing with the program Makehuman and I'll say I wasn't impressed. It's not possible to make anime real using Makehuman, in fact the options (for example eye size) are somewhat limited. But there's good news, don't worry! The creator of Makehuman went on to create a blender plugin called ManuelBastioniLAB which is much better (and has a much more humorous name). The plugin is easy to install and use (especially if you have a little blender experience). There are three different anime female defaults that are all pretty cute. (Pictured is a slightly modified Anime Female 2.) There are sliders to modify everything from finger length to eye position to boob size. It even has a posable skeleton. Unfortunately the anime models don't have inverse kinematic skeletons which are much easier to pose. Going forward I'm probably going to use MasturBationLABManuelBastioniLAB as the starting point for my designs. --- Saving everything with yt-dlp (>>16357, >>12247) >===

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.

Okay so here I have attached the LED and resistor pair with their 30ga wire wrapping wire onto my highside mosfet's front face. I may add conductive silver paste to the wire wraps in the future if any issues come up there. However, I am wondering if just tightly wrapping it in electrical tape would more or less guarantee the connection doesn't open circuit. We'll see. I also finished soldering together six braided copper solder wick strands which will act as my heatsink for my highside mosfet. I am still deliberating on how to attach it to back of mosfet in such a way that it will be electrically isolated but thermally conductive. I am leaning toward thermal tape for this.
>>42798 Interesting. How will you be testing that this worked OK? Good luck with everything, Anon.
>>42800 >How will you be testing I plan to isolate the different parts with maybe kapton tape or packing tape and use lab power supplies to provide the 8v and 20v and see if LED comes on and test outputs with multi-meter. Then I plan to attach the heat sink after that and test again when I build a half bridge I think. The heat sink test I guess I'll do once its all on motor and can maybe use my ithermal imaging camera or something.
Here's the thermal tape I bought for mosfet heat sinking off Amazon:
>>42802 >>42803 Sounds reasonable, I think. >The heat sink test I guess I'll do once its all on motor and can maybe use my ithermal imaging camera or something. Neat! Good luck with this QA effort, Artbyrobot. Cheers. :^)

Open-Source Licenses Comparison Robowaifu Technician 07/24/2020 (Fri) 06:24:05 No.4451 [Reply] [Last]
Hi anons! After looking at the introductory comment in >>2701 which mentions the use of the MIT licence for robowaifu projects. I read the terms: https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT Seems fine to me, however I've also been considering the 3-clause BSD licence: https://opensource.org/licenses/BSD-3-Clause >>4432 The reason I liked this BSD licence is the endorsement by using the creator's name (3rd clause) must be done by asking permission first. I like that term as it allows me to decide if I should endorse a derivative or not. Do you think that's a valid concern? Initially I also thought that BSD has the advantage of forcing to retain the copyright notice, however MIT seems to do that too. It has been mentioned that MIT is already used and planned to be used. How would the these two licences interplay with each other? Can I get a similar term applied from BSD's third clause but with MIT?

Robowaifu Propaganda and Recruitment Thread 3: Now In 3D! GreerTech 09/16/2025 (Tue) 01:38:16 No.41674 [Reply] [Last]
Attention artists, graphic designers, marketers, social media personalities, writers, and poasters! Your skills will be needed! The task of building and designing a robowaifu is a herculean quest. As great as this community is, /robowaifu/ always needs more talent. We also need to spread the very idea of robowaifus to the masses. Luckily for us there are several communities on the internet that we could find new recruits or allies to help us build our waifus: >MGTOW - These guys know all about the legal pitfalls of marriage and the dangers of feminism. There is already a lot of talk about sex robots in MGTOW communities. It shouldn't be a hard sell to get them to come here. <However, some of these guys would rather spend all their time bitching on the internet about "MUH WOMENZ" than actually getting a hobby other than lifting heavy objects and putting them down again. MGTOW is literally Feminist Separatism for males. >Incels - Guys that can't get laid. The opportunity for love and companionship should be enough to bring some of these guys over. <However, we need to be careful when recruiting from some of their communities, since most of them are defeatists that balk at an actual solution, and they may be compromised by spies and derailers, both governmental and NGO/individual. We don't want to attract negative attention. >Monster girls/nekomimi/HMOAF/mlpol - The only way these guys are going to be able to have their harpy/elf/goblin/anthro/pony/whatever gf is with a robowaifu. Many have an interest in seeing us succeed. <However, there exists a very wide variety of communities under this umbrella, and there is a notable overlap between communities who would want robowaifus and communities that are morally compromised, such as furries, so care should be taken when looking into them. Romanticists and waifu enthusiasts have a tendency to congregate since they all want/create the same type of content, so looking for those subgroups would be the most efficient path. >Otakus - Many men in these communities want to see their waifu/favorite character come to life, which will realistically only happen with robowaifus. <However, many of those communities are drowning in the LGBT alphabet soup and Covid Tourists. Special care should be taken when looking into them. >Male STEM students - Generally these guys aren't going to get laid until after they have established themselves. A robowaifu could really help them.

>Why organize IRL? This community is great and many individuals are already making progress on their prototypes. However this endeavor is not a one man job and organizing IRL would give better opportunities for collaboration and skill sharing/development. >Where should we organize? I propose we organize within a seven hour radius of Chicago. This would include the major cities of Milwaukee WI, St Louis MO, Detroit MI, Indianapolis IN, Louisville KY, Cleveland OH, Cincinnati OH, Columbus OH, Pittsburgh PA, Nashville TN, and Minneapolis MN. There are plenty of opportunities for jobs and universities in these cities. In particular Chicago has a booming tech industry with Google even moving their HQ to the city and the electronics manufacturing and biotech sectors are pretty good too and Detroit MI has pretty good robotics industry although it might not be the best place to live. Another wonderful thing about this area is that most of these homes have basements that could be turned into workshops. >How would this all be organized I propose a fraternity system. A fraternity would help build community and give us a vehicle to recruit others from STEM and skilled trades (machinists especially) The organization could also host a scholarship to help us build talent. Anons with enough money for a down payment could buy homes in the area and rent to below market rate to anons moving in. Different homes could specialize on different projects and collaborate and share equipment and skills with others nearby. What do you think /robowaifu/?
