Tripteron Robot - Simpler Than It Looks?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 лис 2022
- This intriguing mechanism looks complicated but is surprisingly simple. A tripteron is a 3 axis motion system. While rarely used in practice, it has potential applications in 3D printing (similar to a delta robot), photography, and general robotics. This is an experimental design we are calling a "parallel axis tripteron" since all 3 input motions are parallel to each other. This has the advantage of allowing nearly unlimited travel along the parallel axis, since increasing the length of the input rails is relatively cheap and easy. We're using linear stages from our LC40 family to provide the input motion. See www.zaber.com/products/famili... for product details.

Real world use?
This was created mostly to explore/test the concept without a particular application in mind. In certain applications, this could have advantages over a more traditional 3-axis gantry system capable of accessing the same work envelope. Imagine flipping it over and attaching a gripper to the "head"... something like our chess-playing robot demo ua-cam.com/users/shortsbg5gYlei4Zo. However, the benefits for niche applications may not be enough to justify commercializing it. We currently have no plans to take the design beyond this proof-of-concept.
@@ZaberTech Thanks.
@@ZaberTechI have no idea what you said, but I was thinking it could be a camera mount 🤷♂️
He could be a funky little frog lol
@@ZaberTechpotential for a camera slider?
And now I can't unsee a robot riding a bike in a race.
Even robots evolve into crab.
Oddly enough, I was hearing star wars music as this guy drove a speeder across the surface of Tatooine.
It honestly looks more like a robit frog to me instead. 😅
That's what I immediately thought, looks like a racer on a MotoGP bike
Weird I seen a chameleon
What a funky little fellow.
So true, Karkat!
Stoned spider
give it a tophat and some googly eyes and call it Sir stuckspider
Brother got the Homestuck PFP and the Undertail Home-screen Banner.
Hahhahhahha made me laugh 😅
Make it do the stickbug dance
Well I made it this far in life w/o being stickbugged. Now this damn thing ruined my streak.
or the family guy irak lobster.
@@DOBB97 what lmao
The little black line makes my day better
😊
It's incredible how much expression you can get out of a relatively straight black line.
"What an interesting machine..."
*Draws little black line*
"OMG this little dude is so adorable!"
Gets us every time.
I imagine the guy who designed this hated inverse kinematics so came up with the ideal constraints to make the problem simpler.
Damn inverse kinematics, I'll just make my linkages do the calculations for me!
I bet this will be in an AI vs humans episode of Black Mirror one day, on some scary looking robot.. because it looks freaky as fsck 😂
well you might actually be on to something. thing is that a singular arm allows the end of the arm to move in a circle when the other end is on a bearing. but if you put another bearing and arm on the end of the first arm, the new end on the second arm has a freedom to go to any point in 2r radius. now imagine this flat circular area of freedom, what do you think would happen if two of these 2d circles intersected in 3d space? you get a line of course. and to "intersect" those two circles you connect the ends of the arms to a single body on bearings, and now this body will move linearly relative to the body the roots of the two arms are in. have two of these systems at an angle and you get tripteron.
@hrishikeshaggrawal I sorta followed it, up until trying to imagine the line from the two points/bearings 😅
That sharpie line instantly transformed it into a cute, metallic chameleon 😂
This makes it easy to implement mechanics in glass and steelworks because neither electricity nor hydraulics have to go into the hot areas and you have a cheap option to carry out 3D movement on a long axis.
The design doesn’t look inherently strong, would that just be for small objects or would you have a big ass version?
High temperatures reduce magnetism. The working principle of this robot is the magnets that provide the movement at the end of the feet. Therefore, I don't think it will be very efficient.
@@sekinci What magnets? There's just bearings.
Whoever made this was a genius!
Whoever made this stood on top of the shoulders of giants.
@@Ebani isn't that true for every inventor
@@CometAura Not all, Tesla would be the best example. Current day yes as information has become worldwide available.
@@Ebani true.
@@CometAurathere are indeed many but some ideas came into one dream (chem.structure of benzene's/aromaticring ,chemnistry) and Einstein said it aswell in his words: "one moment it just came to mind"
certain insights boiled down to the concept of 4 dimensions( space-time) are dependable of eachother
That is some ninja metal frog ya got there!
freak
@@scottcates on a leash
This would be awesome as a camera dolly/slider for more complex movements. Plus it's just really cool.
I can't decide if it looks cute or evil
Depends on the programming
Both
@@HFV_Junkyardinfrfr!.... But kinda think it's a sleepy lil cute dude😅
It looks cute and spunky.
We really have to stop anthropomorphizing everything... And it's obviously cute 😅
The line for the face made me giggle
That would be REALLY cool for 3D printing
kinda already have this! look into coreXY printers like Bambu labs or Voron builds
Interesting idea
Definitely.
My first thought was flip it upside down on a Core XY but feel like you'll get a bigger area covered and more motion when its combined with a beds linger.
@@heinrichbosch4040smh no need to flip the mechanism, just put the print bed over it, learn to adapt man.
This is prety cool. Do you have expenses if it's usage in the field?
New fear unlocked: spider terminators ☠️
Ngl these feels like something that would be in a sci-fi setting on some rails, maybe acting as a repair thing or smth
That would be yo most terrifying train ride ever
Nice 😊 at the end ...
Glad you liked it
Looks like a frog riding a motorcycle
now he's got a smile and he looks chilled af.....
In the rain or in the snow
Got the funky funky flow
i want to build one in Space Enginers now.
dont know if it would be a better arm for anything but it looks so cool!
The coordinated swinging movement gives the impression of something living. Very cool!
Adding the sharpie mouth really brought the whole “robot-train-crab” together.
One of the most beautiful mechanisms I've ever seen.
Is there a patent for this mechanism?
I want to prepare a graduation project for the kinematic calculation of this mechanism.
The face at the end made me love this thing 😂😂
Makes me wish I was more competent in math, robotics looks so cool.
Robot has an attitude problem.
I love how you added the smiley to make it friendly :)
Little dude looks so chill
Looks like a badass ice skating sled pusher
When your chameleon goes Full Terminator.
He looks so chill
worlds most dancing inclined metal frog
Now with a single line, you just turned it into the fugliest spider known to mankind. 😾
My cousin is currently studying robotics. She'll be delighted to see one
And that tripteron robot has a TON of uses! From 3d printing to stable moving platform, etc

Looks like a spider weaving his webs
It is fantastic. So smooth. It has personality

Crazy how just adding a line our brains create an entire being dancing on a limb
If Crabby had a metal evolution
Thank you for sharing your video. I hadn't realized that there were only 3 moving parts!
Without the line i was like 'that's pretty cool', with the line I'm on board as heck
This may be the cutest most adorable little mechanism I've ever seen. Personification of a mechanism feels so fun.
That little line at the made my absolute day!
The spider in my bathroom, trying to size-up the Raid can swifty approaching it.
This actually look really cool!
All I see is a robot version of "Get stick-bugged, lol"
I’d love one of those for creative camera shots, would make videos come to life
for just $10,000 your drink will never spill again
Lil gangly man pushin his box along.
The way that thing moves is mesmerizing!
Engineering finally mimicking frogs.
This is pretty cool
It's movements are elegant and beautiful. So free, yet always so precise. Very nice indeed.
It looks like a crab trying to pimp-walk.
I've always wondered what a kinematically linear system looked like!! 😏
Thats the coolest thing I've seen since the Apollo guidance system 👍🏻
Thank you for the Breakdown. As a robotician i was trying to figure out how you could control it :)
I cant believe I got stick-bugged by a robot
It looks like an angry frog, with long legs, slowly climbing up a thing
If i woke up and saw that i would instantly catch EVERYTHING on fire
I'm so glad you gave it a line for a mouth. As soon as I saw this moving, I thought it looks like it's got a face without a mouth.
It kind of reminds me of a chameleon swaying back and forth on a branch!
That machining and engineering looks beautiful
This could be great if applied to additive/subtractive manufacturing. I know you have previously said there is no current plan to commercialize this, but I see great benefits to this application as far as mobility.
How to stickbug someone without them knowing:
I love seeing those vertical milling marks on the central block! Sometimes, smooth, raw aluminum looks so good. Looks beautifully designed, machined, and assembled 👌
Great. Now I can't unsee a face even without the mark.
Relatively Space could probably use a robot arm like thing like this on a gantry setup over a rotating welding print table for making their rockets. This part would handle the fine movement of the material depositing/welding head. Like the lense of a CD player to be a steady "hand" for the laser.
If by using 3 linear rails can allow for pitch and yaw movement as well, that would make this even cooler and more useful. Especially useful for working in a vacuum chamber, or with highly radioactive materials that can quickly degrade motors and electronics in close proximity to a source.
Looks like chameleon walking around
And now I call it Spider-bot
The secret is the smooth tracks that it runs on like glass. The real trick is using it in the real world without the tracks.
Amazing machine, excellent concept and creation.
Cool video.
This will be huge.
but currently it is the size of a cat.
I love how it looks like it has eyes
All I could think was that it looked like a bug dancing and the he goes and gives it a mouth and I absolutely lost it 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
This looks useful for both 3D printing and camera movement rigs.
Amazing complicated simplicity😃👍
I could see it used in enviroment where vibrations and high speed moves are common occurence, looks like promising stabilization technology
He’s smooth wit it doe
I know this wouldn't work for locomotion but man that looks like a cool robo spider
How many tripteron machine guns do you want? - Military - yes
That is cool and so simple that I hope we see many in the future out in our world.
3d printing gonna be wild now
My first thought: Spider friend!
Little alien driving his hover bike
It's a very interesting design. The disadvantages might be that you need a lot of space for very limited x,y,z displacement. If you would scale it up because you want longer z axis travel, the arms would become very bulky.
It's giving that dancing stick bug...
The fluidity of its movement, plus the force that it appears able to generate, make me wonder about, and hopeful for its potential in medtech.
What an elegant design.
I wonder if it was inspired by a swimming frog.
Now introducing, the railing spider.
Vector addition in 3 dimensions with a 2 dimensional control love it.
Nah, the first reaction I had was that this had no other application than as an animatronic bug.
When it goes fast, it looks like it’s dancing lol
Most usefull stuff i've seen on yt today
It’s so amazing, it’s for the simplest x-y and Z
That line took this from a 4/10 to 11/10
Subscribed. Neat stuff.
That crab look so cute!
I won't pretend to understand much of what you said. But, you're an innovator. I love innovators.
