      🔴 What Is Islam? ⚠️
      🔴 Islam is not just another religion.
      🔵 It is the same message preached by Moses, Jesus and Abraham.
      🔴 Islam literally means ‘submission to God’ and it teaches us to have a direct relationship with God.
      🔵 It reminds us that since God created us, no one should be worshipped except God alone.
      🔴 It also teaches that God is nothing like a human being or like anything that we can imagine.
      🌍 The concept of God is summarized in the Quran as:
      📖 { “Say, He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He does not give birth, nor was He born, and there is nothing like Him.”} (Quran 112:1-4)[4] 📚
      🔴 Becoming a Muslim is not turning your back to Jesus.
      🔵 Rather it’s going back to the original teachings of Jesus and obeying him.

      @@1islam1 The Quran is a book of rules and explanations about how the world works made up by people who actually knew very little about how the world works, with its rules were based on a morality that's hundreds of years outdated. So basically, holding this book as sacred, the point of Islam, is a very good way to freeze humanity's progress about our view of the world back hundreds of years to an era of relative vast ignorance, and to also freeze its progress in terms of morality to an era of savagery. That's what Islam is.

    It's a shame you didn't talk more about the actual uses and how the robot can be modified to achieve them. It's great that it shrinks down and Nasa could drill a hole to drop it in but what does it do then. The structure of the robot presents challenges to implementing the various uses, picking up a ball seems like a very limited use and I'm sure they have considered how to modify them to do more complicated tasks.

      Derek already did a video on the copter, which IMO is one of the more "cool" aspects of the rover. I find that focusing on whats cool is usually the goal with Veritasium, rather than what is relevant, or even super practical. Cool is the whole point tho, if what you watch is cool and you learn something Derek wins, you just learned something!

    the biggest application for robots right now is a small mule that is quiet and flexible enough to endure tough terrain as a human could, I.E military applications, I don't think these robots can carry much or do much, or even move that fast. There are lesser applications for disaster rescue and other dangerous jobs but a soldier's mule would be a good one as the infantry kit is already huge and heavy.

    Soft robotics will be a key part of constructing an exosuit, especially one that can help people do their jobs or allow humanity to keep up with robotic work without needing to replace human work entirely because of the inherent advantages of strengthening our bodies and training for precision, speed and endurance. Combat and space situations and operations would also have good applications for such a suit.

  • @goldenfloof5469
    @goldenfloof5469 3 роки тому +1

    I don't think they'll ever be more capable than hard, rigid robots. I think hard robots will just get smarter A.I. and more joints and rotation points, thereby giving them a wider range of applications they can handle and being better at not hurting humans.
    Maybe some specific situations where they have to directly deal with people, but I think advanced A.I. and maybe a squishy shell applied to a hard robot would more than make up for that.

    • @davidwuhrer6704
      @davidwuhrer6704 3 роки тому +1

      It really depends on the application.
      More joints means more movable parts means more things that can break.
      (And they always break when you need them the most. That's the stapler principle.)
      Certainly, there are applications where you want a manipulator that is hard.
      But you can have that even with a compliant system. Not every part needs to be elastic for a system to be compliant, it just means that it can change shape without having joints.
      For complex tasks, there is always the option of hybrid systems.
