The important question Robowaifu Technician 09/18/2019 (Wed) 11:54:39 No.419 [Reply] [Last]
Vagoo. I can't speak for anyone but myself but I'd like to get.. intimate with my fembot. I'd like to know what my options are for her robopussy. I was thinking something like a flesh light with sensors that triggers voice and arm action. I'm using Myrobotlab is Anyone familiar with it?

Imagine this; You are hosting a party, and you're afraid that someone may sneak into your room and steal stuff. Your worst fear is coming true, but as they open the door, they see Galatea v3.0.7, watching them. It's like a ring camera, but mobile, indoors, and very conspicuous without being overbearing.

>>42520 >No wonder it's so expensive! Exactly my thoughts as well. I wonder if that is real human hair (there's a market for that), or some kind of fine synthetic. Regardless, I find that part of the operation (head assembly & decoration) particularly interesting. Must have taken quite a few iterations to develop the manufacturing techniques.

>>42436 >>42439 Neat! Yeah, I think this whole tree of exploration offers some promise. Just like with so-called "control monkees" & MOCAP in the film industries, acting out the desired motions for robowaifus promises to bear fruit. Combined with "digital doubles" (the AI kind, not the film kind) and massive stochastic training sets, we could soon see robowaifus walking & doing other things with little to no programming required by end users (and even much-less from the developers as well). We develop the skill of being "compliant" from childhood. Simply training on human-based exemplars for this stuff should produce good results if its conducted well. Thanks, meta ronin!

While I support most aspects * of this proposed (((legislation))), I certainly don't support more laws in any sense...particularly ones that affect /robowaifu/ -adjacent concerns. None of this will turn out positive -- either for Anons or their robowaifus -- because (((reasons))). futurism.com/artificial-intelligence/ohio-ban-ai-marriage --- * The primary thrust being: "AI is not capable of personhood" (my words). Any other position will lead directly to radical libshite's violence against robowaifuist Anons b/c """muh_repayashuns n sheeeit!111""". Make no mistake: these POSs long to literally murder us already. Their pretense that we are "raping" our robowaifus would give them incentive to act on it (in blatant hypocrisy ofc [eg, blame the victims if niggers are involved, etc.]... but these people have no actual ethics or morality. So don't expect to be able to reason with them.)

>>42490 I saw that too, I didn't really know what to think about it. The good news is that it seems like it was genuinely made for good purposes, and the idea of robowaifus was brought up as a near-ludicrous idea, so it isn't some sort of attack. The other good news is that it might be better for us in the long run, it would be far harder for libshites to do a Detroit: Become Human LARP if the robowaifu isn't legally human. And ofc, no Earthly law can supersede a Holy marriage, the actual marriage. Many people, including many Christians, seem to confuse legal marriage with actual marriage. It's funny, we ended up in the Futurama timeline. In the future, we're going to wage a campaign for "robosexual marriage" Vote Yes on Proposition Infinity

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.

Open file (1.43 MB 1025x763 motor control.png)
I've been working on a closed-loop motor control system (pic rel). An arduino acts as an analog reader sending data on the serial bus (with a servo breakout board acting as a breakout board for motor encoders aka potentiometers), while a MCP23017 (red glowing jellybean) sends out digital signals via I2C which get amplified by the ULN2003 (purple guy). Arduino isn't doing digital outputs because I discovered with other projects it can have power issues if you have too many digital outputs, and I don't have I2C analog readers because they didn't sample very fast (like 2 samples per second, could be user error but why bother when I already have something that works?) So is it SPUD-related? Not really. Or at least, not immediately. This allows the raspi to control motors via the MCP2307 (sending digital outputs to a separate motor controller) and read real joint position and act accordingly. This opens the doors for controlling many other types of motors, from smol hobby motors to 3500lb winches to screw-drive linear actuators, which is good because screw-drive linear actuators they only use power when moving. They tend to move slow but can easily be pushed beyond their voltage rating. So, maybe SPUD will have linear-actuator-based legs. Or I might just plop her on a big reciprocating spooder base. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTtXNjmahzE
>>42385 THIS LOOKS AMAZING. I'm really glad to see your research in this area, Mechnomancer. If we can devise sophisticated motor control schemas using cheap COTS parts that will strongly solidify these efforts as every'non DIY projects. I hope you in fact create linear actuators for dear SPUD'S legs. We need more research in this area tbh. Looking forward to your progress, Anon! Cheers. :^)
You should make a github
>>42424 >github Eventually, I only wanna release properly documented stuff cuz I've encountered many a repository that isn't properly documented D:< I've gotten better at doing documentation during development (makes it easier to find & fix stuff) so that's more of a possibility. I also discovered a faster way to do graphics on the raspberry pi, so that means I'll be re-building Pringle to be even more optimized. Among faster render times I plan to put dependency installation right in the code so it is just run and done with a few other features.

Robowaifu Ethics & Morality Chobitsu 08/02/2022 (Tue) 23:25:26 No.17125 [Reply] [Last]
>"And as you wish that others would do to you, do so to them."[1] >-t. Jesus Christ I propose this thread to be a narrowly-scoped discussion on the OP's topic; informed primarily by 2 Christian-themed writings, and by our own efforts & practical insights in developing robowaifus : I. In Mere Christianity, C.S. Lewis asserts that all men "...have the Law of God written on their hearts."[2][3][4] This is certainly affirmed by various passages in the Holy Scriptures, as well. II. In The City of God, Aurelius Augustine of Hippo writes >"And yet they have within themselves something which they could not see: they represented to themselves inwardly things which they had seen without, even when they were not seeing them, but only thinking of them. But this representation in thought is no longer a body, but only the similitude of a body; and that faculty of the mind by which this similitude of a body is seen is neither a body nor the similitude of a body; and the faculty which judges whether the representation is beautiful or ugly is without doubt superior to the object judged of. >"This principle is the understanding of man, the rational soul; and it is certainly not a body, since that similitude of a body which it beholds and judges of is itself not a body. The soul is neither earth, nor water, nor air, nor fire, of which four bodies, called the four elements, we see that this world is composed. And if the soul is not a body, how should God, its Creator, be a body?[5][6][7] Now, starting from the fundamental basis & belief (a priori w/ no defenses given pertaining to it >tl;dr let's not descend into debate on this point, merely discuss the implications of it, kthx :^) that this immaterial, moral law inscribed on each of our hearts by God literally serves as the foundational stone for all good ethics & all good moralities out there; I'd like for us all lurkers, I'm looking at you! :^) to have a general discussion on: A) What does this all imply (and likely mean) regarding human behaviours within the general cultural/societal domain under discussion, and

Material Science & Production This thread is dedicated to all aspects of material sciences in robotics. This includes production methods for creation, processing, and manipulating materials to attain desired results. Our future robowaifus must be built using materials we can attain and sculpt into them. Let's work together to build the future. Consider picrel, what materials would you use for her shell? Her skeleton? Consider mechanical properties, density, how they would feel to hold. All are important aspects we must consider. This thread will have overlap with the 3D printing thread. Feel free to crosslink at will. This thread is made as a merger of 2 previous material threads and a CNC thread.
