It might help for modelling something human-like and understanding it better. >This dynamic shoulder rotator cuff model is designed specifically to simulate shoulder dislocations and treatments but can be used for a range of clinical education applications. https://youtu.be/GVXmNw9ABjo >In this model, the humerus is held in place by a series of elastic cords that simulate the pull of rotator cuff muscles and ligaments. Tension on the elastics can be adjusted to simulate variability in rotator cuff integrity and support around the glenohumeral joint. >See here for instructions and 3D files: https://thangs.com/mythangs/file/64965

I saw someone modeling teeth. Thought I would comment here in skeleton. The old school, and cheap, way to make fake dental is acrylic. Here's one site, I have no financial interest in them I just found their products interesting. https://dental.keystoneindustries.com/product-category/dental-lab/acrylics/ You can search on ebay and elsewhere for "dental acrylic" and get a large assortment of different products. More upscale and tougher are the glass Isomers A link discussing them for actual teeth on humans but the same info would be good for robowaifus. https://www.oralhealthgroup.com/features/glass-ionomers-why-where-and-how/ They can be pricey but generic stuff is not so bad. Acrylic is likely the lowest cost and best, I think, but if you want more tooth looking realism I expect the glass isomer would be better.

>>32877 Hey, thanks, I think this was me. These were only meant as placeholders. But you can buy something like crowns. For example on AliExpress. I think the ones I saw there were pre-modelled. You still need the metal rods to put them on in the right place, so the placeholders could just get replaced by that.

>other, more expensive models, are wi-fi compatible, but you purposely chose the cheapest option with no wireless connectivity, not just because you're cheap, because you don't want people spying on your waifu

>Your sudden reaction of shock abides when you remind yourself that it's simply a robot.
>But the awkwardness comes back when the robot speaks, in very broken Engrish
>still, you can understand as it introduces itself with the name you've given it, the voice you chose for it.
>you know that you chose those options, but when the robot asks you for your name, you still answer just as awkwardly as when a real girl would ask you your name at the bank or whatever
>actually, more awkwardly because your fingers are inside it. So you freeze up, as you do even in simpler situations
>but the robot is programmed for your happiness, and detects your stress, smiling at you in an attempt to make you feel better. But only briefly, because you programmed it with just the mildest hint of tsundere
>it tells you to not feel stressed, and assures you that it is not being damaged by your touch
>you remove yourself from the robot's vagina, and notice a brief, subtle shudder. Nice attention to detail from the creators
>You stand up in front of the robot and watch it as it looks around the room, studying its surroundings. It moves in an unnaturally smooth motion, but manages to not be too uncanny due to looking like a robot, rather than a human.
>as the robot's eyes scan the room, you notice that they stop for just a tiny but longer than usual as they look straight ahead. Straight ahead at your boner, which happens to be right at the small robot's face level.
>once again your mind forgets that you are dealing with a machine, and you awkwardly try to create small talk to diffuse the situation, asking the robot if it requires anything else at the moment. It declines, and instead asks if there is anything you desire
>you, the autist you are, refuse to let the robot do anything for you, and instead say that you are going to go and make a sandwich.
>you tell the robot to make itself comfortable, then cringe to yourself when you realize the absurdity of that statement.

Do you hear that, anons? That is the sound of inevitability. That is the sound of robopony gfs. I present to you: Carriage Return I sit at the desk in my cluttered bedroom, staring at my typewriter as I feel the weight of oblivion weighing down on my mind. Nothing more than a modest hiss can be heard, as I attempt to stimulate my brain into continuing its productivity. But alas, the result is the same. A cloud that is as empty now as it is full when inspiration strikes. Adjusting my headphones, I decide that my current playlist just isn't getting me into the flow. I'm feeling a bit grungey right now, that may do the trick. As I lean over to my dektop keyboard to mess around in my music folder, a sound from outside the cacophonous echo chamber of empty thoughts hits me. The door to my bedroom creaks as a feminine snout peeks through, clad in precision-cut mahogany synthetic fur. "Still stuck, honey?" Inky's demure voice cuts in, her olive eyes boring into my own.

Time for more pone stories because I can't ever seem to settle on how to proceed with making an actual robowaifu. My current idea involves shaving off over two-thirds of the projected weight and using a single drive motor. This actually the first robopony story I started ages ago, which I finally got around to revising upon getting some inspiration. I also have the next installment of Dumpster Angel in the works, but it'll take a while since I revised the plan and decided to make it much longer. So, do look forward to that if you liked the original. As always, notes and critiques are appreciated. Now then, I present to you: --- A Star in my Eye (part.1) Only the soft crunch of snow and the faint whirring of motors can be heard as Lily and I walk across a starlit, empty field. It's a location I had discovered mere minutes ago, deciding it's as good a place as any to stretch my legs before continuing our long drive to the coast. Despite the lack of any moonlight, the pristine blanket of snow reflects enough of the starlight to cast everything in an otherly glow. The field itself is almost pristinely flat, with hardly any plant life sticking out, and the nearest trees are over a mile away.

A Star in my Eye (part.2) Lily brushes out the snow stuck to her mane, the her mane shimmering as the glittering ice gently falls around her. "You've only looked at the sky once this entire time," she deadpans, an ear flicking in annoyance. "It's pretty hard to focus on the dimmer stars when there's such a bright one next to me," I return with a smirk. I place a hand on my chin as the angelic pone closes her eyes and sighs so softly it can barely be heard -not really though, because breathing is for thots-. It's not like I'm being willfully oblivious here. I don't have much winter protection beyond the coat, and each new blast of wind just makes everything colder. But I am a man of scenery, and I want to see how each scene serves to enhance my wife's beauty. In fact, that's half the reason I actually decided to go to the coast. While I do have family out there, they're not in trouble or anything, and I can always call them as I have been. I can't, however, truly know for sure how Lily looks while walking an empty winter beach until I see it with my own two eyes and at each hour of the day and night. Especially around sunrise and sunset. Why I'd even say tha- "Aren't you forgetting something?" Lily asks just as sharply as the hoof that poked my stomach.

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. I think human woman would be improved if they were like that. Sorry if this thread is inappropriate.

>>32785 >I understand your position I'm not sure you do. Yahweh promised the Jews that they would own everything and everyone would be their slaves. Yahweh demands sacrifices, genocide and burnt meat. But what was Yahweh? Was it a god or GOD. I submit that the god of the Jews is exactly what Jesus said he was. Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love me, for I came from God and I am here. I came not of my own accord, but he sent me. Why do you not understand what I say? It is because you cannot bear to hear my word. You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies. But because I tell the truth, you do not believe me. Which one of you convicts me of sin? If I tell the truth, why do you not believe me? Whoever is of God hears the words of God. The reason why you do not hear them is that you are not of God.” - John 8:42-47 " – then answered the Jews — ” (which makes it clear that Christ was addressing the Jews.) I mean who else but the Jews would believe this ,"I'm going to give you everything and make everyone your slaves"? Who would want such a thing? Could it be that this "Yahweh" demon, according to Jesus, looked around and found the most corrupt, vile, narcissistic people he could find and promised them the world if they would do his dirty work? The answer appears self-evident to me. No GOD, creator of the universe would put these animals in charge of anything. Much less the future of the human race, but the dark one, he would LOVE them.

When you read or quote the old testament, pay attention and think about just where that came from. Is it GOD, or a god.

>>32800 >I'm not sure you do. I'm pretty sure I understand the claim you're espousing, Grommet. I've certainly heard it plenty of times before. I simply don't agree with that interpretation of the scriptures. God will indeed fulfill all his promises to Abraham, regarding the land & his descendants. During the so-called 'Millennial Reign' of the returned Jesus here on the Earth, then the legitimate descendants of Abraham -- those still in their natural flesh (though not us returned Christians [we will then be in our new glorified bodies, going among all the natural men; serving as kings & priests under our great King & Lord God Jesus Christ]) -- will walk out all those promises made to Abraham thousands of years earlier. Then the end of that 1Kyr era will come, the entire universe will be consumed in a fervent heat, the Great White Throne judgement will occur where the 'books will be opened' & the damned will all be judged. Every last one. By the close of that phase of God's acts, Satan and all his followers will have been thrown into the lake of fire that burns forever (Gehenna, in the Biblical Greek). This will mark the end (for all eternity) of the influence of evil running loose. All who rejected God's salvation will be put away & for good. It.will.be.permanent. <---> AND THEN the great & glorious new phase of God's creations will begin!!! New Heavens, New Earth, New Jerusalem. God with Man. Forever. [1][2] OH GLORIOUS DAY!

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.

>>32559 Please understand that I fully support you. Pulley's do not work beyond a few at a time. I understand why you'd be enamored with the concept. Frictional losses are cumulative, and pulley's just aren't ideal for this application. Monofilament line is also not ideal do to its high elasticity and ease of permanent elongation from prolonged stress. Use a rope or braid in a capstan or chinese windlass/differential pulley if you want to use threads and pulley adjacent mechanisms. It will save you time and heartache. I'm personally developing a chinese windlass based actuator for MaidCom, though that is far from being ready to share. I hope you'll head my advice, but I understand if you feel too attached to pulley's.

Artbyrobot 08/04/2024 (Sun) 20:50:40 No.32576

>>32561 thanks and agree >>32563 the fact you thought the monifilament line is going to be handling load bearing duties as opposed to the clearly stated purpose of using it just to fill a small crack like using silicone on a bathtub crack makes me question how carefully you considered my post. I’ve consistently stated I’m using braided PE fishing line with very high test strength for my actuation cables whose tensile strength and elasticity are relevant. Also to anyone reading this thread, I want to strongly disagree with Kiwi's statement about pulleys not working beyond a few at a time. This is demonstrably false and very misleading IMO. You'll note from the smarter every day video on pulleys that Archimedes boasted he could pull a ship ashore solo if he used enough pulleys. This would involve WAY MORE than 3 pulleys. So to say you can only practically use a few is false. You'll also note 8 pulleys being used here in the same video: https://youtu.be/M2w3NZzPwOM?t=277 And the implied teaching is that this is far from the cap on how many you can use effectively. He never says "well this is about the max you can use". And in my robot I'm only using about 8 too just like he proves works great in the video as far as I can observe. So this is really not even up for debate IMO. Kiwi is just dead wrong it seems to me and the video proves it IMO. Now if the video is poorly presented and misleading and my conclusions based on it are all wrong, I am open to be proven wrong. Are there any sources to back up what Kiwi said or videos demonstrating what Kiwi said? I would need verification beyond hearsay at this point to be persuaded. ChatGPT also seemed to be on my side on this. I really don’t know any experts or people I can talk to on this, but Kiwi is the only person saying this of all the people that I’ve shown my project to. Also one more thing: you do realize I'm going for 32:1 or 64:1 downgearing ratio yes? So that in mind, when you say use windlass or use ball screw (old discussion in another thread), are you suggesting these methods are viable and more efficient than pulleys even at these high downgearing ratios? Because any method is lower in friction losses at lower downgearing ratios but my requirement is 32:1 or 64:1 downgearing at a minimum due to using low torque high speed bldc motors as my motor of choice. I understand some efficiency losses are involved, but that applies to using gears too. And hobby servos use 180:1 downgearing very commonly. They suffer some efficiency losses too but are considered good design. Chatgpt says: Hobby servos with gear ratios around 180:1 typically have efficiencies ranging from 70% to 85%. Pulley-Based Downgearing (32:1 with 9 Pulleys) Efficiency: A well-designed pulley system with ball bearings can achieve efficiencies around 80% to 90%. Chinese windlass efficiency: similar to the pulley system, generally in the range of 70% to 90%.

Robowaifu Propaganda and Recruitment 2 Robowaifu Technician 06/06/2024 (Thu) 02:06:10 No.31438 [Reply]

Attention drawfags and writefags! Your skills will be needed. The task of building and designing a robowaifu is a herculean quest. As great as this community is, /robowaifu/ simply does not have the manpower to real our goal of DIY robowaifus. 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. Incels - Guys that can't get laid. The opportunity for love and companionship should be enough to bring some of these guys over. We need to be careful when recruiting from some of their communities. We don't want to attract negative attention. Monster girls/furry/mlp fandoms - The only way these guys are going to be able to have their harpy/elf/goblin/anthro/pony/whatever gf is with a robowaifu. They have an interest in seeing us succeed. Again we need to be careful here not to attract the wrong kind of people that will bring us the wrong kind of attention. Male STEM students - Generally these guys aren't going to get laid until after they have established themselves. A robowaifu could really help them. This may be a harder sell because many of them have been brainwashed in university, but they have skills that we could really use. Transhumanists/biohackers - Many of the technologies involved in building a robowaifu could be used in transhumanist or biohacking applications such as building an avatar. They may have some interest in helping us out. We will need to be careful which transhumanist communities we go after as many of them are full of feminism, tumblr tier sexualities and genders, and SJW's. Cyberpunks and technophiles - These guys (and they are usually guys) are all around into technology and may just enjoy working on the kinds of projects we need to do. They are often into programming and AI.

@chobitsu, what do you think about you creating a free tapatalk forum, similar to incels.is and looksmax.org, but about robowaifus, you can create it for free on tapatalk with ads, you just need to appoint a mod, i can show you examples of tapatalk forums with ads if you want, since tapatalk is like a reddit for forums.

>>32409 > To go from phonetic labels and audio files to creating a voice in eSpeak or MBROLA >This checkpoint leverages the pretrained checkpoint wav2vec2-large-lv60 and is fine-tuned on CommonVoice to recognize phonetic labels in multiple languages. https://huggingface.co/facebook/wav2vec2-lv-60-espeak-cv-ft >Recent progress in self-training, self-supervised pretraining and unsupervised learning enabled well performing speech recognition systems without any labeled data. However, in many cases there is labeled data available for related languages which is not utilized by these methods. This paper extends previous work on zero-shot cross-lingual transfer learning by fine-tuning a multilingually pretrained wav2vec 2.0 model to transcribe unseen languages. This is done by mapping phonemes of the training languages to the target language using articulatory features. Experiments show that this simple method significantly outperforms prior work which introduced task-specific architectures and used only part of a monolingually pretrained mode https://arxiv.org/abs/2109.11680

>>32409 Ouuuf, I had to ask specifically: Yes, Festival can indeed be easier to work with for voice creation compared to directly using MBROLA or eSpeak. Here's a brief overview of why Festival might be a more accessible option: 1. Comprehensive toolkit: - Festival comes with a suite of tools designed for voice creation - Includes utilities for data preparation, analysis, and synthesis 2. Festvox: - A voice building framework that works with Festival - Provides a structured approach to creating new voices 3. Higher-level abstractions: - Allows you to work with higher-level linguistic concepts - Can automatically handle some lower-level details

>>32413 We should keep an eye on developments in case anyone tries to make that easier with AI. Or maybe we could try advocating for it. I might also give it a try myself, if I really have to, but I'm bad with patience and frustration. http://www.festvox.org/ https://github.com/festvox/festvox >For full details about voice building see the document itself http://festvox.org/bsv/

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.

I had some idea about using symbols to let the AI do reasoning about objects and it's position in the world. I thought of something like ASCII art. So basically a picture of a view would be mapped into a 2D or 3D model of the world based on symbols which can be moved around. Then I had the idea, that there might be game engines being useful as a base for that. I found these: > PyPlayScii is a Python package that enables an simple object oriented implementation of ascii art games. By asigning the shapes of the game objects by texts seprated by newline characters and determining what to do every frame, you can quickly implement an ascii art game which can be run directly on terminal window. The following shows an example of an ascii art game implemented by PyPlayScii. https://pypi.org/project/pyplayscii/ A alternative in Scala and probably more in use and supported would be Cosplayengine https://cosplayengine.com
