I think its actually not the type of rockets your thinking of, instead its actually a recoil less cannon. when the barrel is forward the chamber is open to allow a round to enter the chamber. The barrel goes backwards closing the chamber and fires a round, a delay allows the projectile to exit the barrel before the barrel moves forward again. This actually makes perfect sense for such a platform where recoil would be a serious hindrance.
If I owned arperture, I'd just strap a bazooka and a kinect sensor to an xbox stuck to a pole with a motor to spin around, and then weld it all to a piston platform under the floor so it can move up and down. If arperture ever needs a cheaper approach to their rocket turret, they know who to call.
@@aminoshift1158 that's nice to hear! Just a little suggestion, when you design It maybe would be nice to have a bigger shape maybe, with something like an ammo box. A good thing would be taking into account how turrets, cores and other test elements look in Portal 2, with that mechanical/industrial vibe. A complete redesign wouldn't be bad either tho

Technically they would be possible with the cpu and the core and eye lenses but it’s not in the model and the joints are pretty straight forward and the rocket ammo compartment would be below the rocket sentry not mentions as well as the joints that move it in a 360 fashion but it’s not mentioned so yeah it is possible Edit: The joint is not a motor the main motor of this turret is in the cores back or rear exhaust ok. Ask questions below this comment note: I specialize in robotics and coding
The articulation would be too precise and would put too much strain on anything you attempt to run it with. Yes, the main core area is somewhat possible, but re-creating it accurate to the canon is not. But I like your way of thinking. Tell you what - if you can build one in real life and make a video of it running its full articulation test and firing, I'll remake this video from scratch and concede.
Tether Animations im only a young adult but I can show you a drawing scale model of this in the future I’ll use your videos as a hint from you and thank you for telling me about the critical error, I love you videos and I am subscribed and keep it up! ;) Check out hershey and Luna Galvez UA-cam channel there’s a video on Aperture turrets
Tether Animations I have a channel called hershey and Luna galvez and I made a rocket sentry out of scratch and I noticed that the barrel would have springs so It would be possible and the turret would be effective but if you notice anything I didn’t catch please list them below
I mean, TF2 Sentry Gun has a machine gun / dual minigun / dual minigun + rockets, so for starters it has the advantage of bullets, reducing the need to lead projectiles. Portal Rocket Sentry for some reason requires to lock on first, then fire without aiming. And they wait a long time before firing again. And the TF2 Sentry doesn't lead projectiles, so fast moving classes can easily dodge.
Having seen a bunch of strange and obscure gun designs, i can say the rocket gun is definitely plausible. at least the 'gun' part. The barrel coming back could be the breech closing and pushing the rocket back into place and opening the back to vent backblast once firing blasting it out and carrying the barrel back out with recoil referred to as a 'Blow Forward' design, or it could siphon some of the backblast from launching to reset the barrel after it leaves like a Gas Delayed Blowback.
like someone said in the beggining of this video, arieal faith plates please, and if you did already but i forgot, emancapation grills (portal 2 type beacuse all portal 1 things are not well desinged)
Okay, 5-6 degrees of rotational freedom all in one direction (x, z is vertical) sure looks fancy but dear god is that post-Apple levels of insane design.
I’d say it’s definitely possible. This is all based off a model from an old game. The rounds could be RPG rounds, but if they’re that small they’d be only effective against personnel in close quarters.
Are Atlas and P-Body possible? I’m just saying this so I can get a side view of their models. I’m trying to create them in Pivot Animator but I can’t find any side views lol
The only thing I see that would make the turret impossible would if the barrel is closed at the back. Aside from that, the rockets, being self-propelled, won't cause any recoil on the gun, making the firing systems and the stress on the joints a mute point, though still in slight presence on the joint due to the stress put into he single point. Next to that, the biggest glaring issue (if the back of the barrel isn't clear), is the loading mechanism. It's possible, though certainly prone to jamming to possible flexing of the metal basket. If I were designing it, I would have it belt fed, but at the same time I can understand the design choice that would lead to its current design. The exhaust black blast of a self propelled rocket is deviating to anyone caught within it. With the belt fed system the loading port for the rockets woul have to always be wide open, and with a wide open gap pointing right at the sentry body, the back blast of the rocket can easily do significant damage over time to the main sentry body with each shot. With this system, that threat is wholly eliminated, the loading chamber able to open and close with each shot and prevent devestating back last the the machine. Overall, I say it's possible, although impractical.
i want to think it has a blow forward design. the barrel going back closes the breech and opens a port in back to vent the backblast and it has just enough contact to allow friction to reset the barrel without messing with the rocket too much.
I'd say some country in a bit of the future maybe a decade could make a strong enough engine under maybe then have the power go to the front of the function to move it
Of course it's over engineered. This IS Aperture Science we're talking about here, the people who make their test chambers in such an expensive, over complicated manner that it's actually more feasible and cost effective to create the blueprints for the test chambers, slip them to the Aperture Sciences of the multiverse, then steal them after they've been built. Also, my question is...would the thermal discouraging beams be possible? Would it be possible to, as explained in I believe Portal 2, concentrate sunlight into a laser beam?
Everyone: sooo to make the turret possibile you Just Need to fix the joint and ammo placement and the actual Rocket Launcher. Me: replace the joints with the panels ones and the rest you said.
I'm making a more realistic model on tinkercad. Even gave it insides and an entirely different arm/base. Bit of clipping due to lazy tinkercad, some things that could be solved a better way, overall the morlst unrealistic part would likely be the launcher. I'll put a link here when it's done. It's also kinda low-poly
are you an actual engineer or something or are you just a normal guy taking a quick look at the mechanisms and going "surely that won't work" and presenting it as fact? i would love to see a bit more of the process behind calculating the stress and strain, force required for the motors and so on, because right now i just feel like you're just going off of what looks about right to you which doesn't really add anything since everyone can do that. love the animations though!
Gotta be honest, chief. I'm not an engineer in the slightest; in fact, I'm terrible at most basic math lol. I'm just a potato with a regular sized brain and a heart full of childish hope, dreams, and aspirations.
@@TetherAnimations9999 thats fine. i watched more of your videos and realized that answering the question: "is the thing really possible?" is not really the point of the video, but more to have a cool animation and to show off how the developers intended the thing to work and where all the joints connect and stuff. speculating if it's possible or not is usually the viewers' job in the comments
Yeah it is possible. Make the articulators out of strong materials, make the core out of a lightweight metal/strong plastic. The articulation isn't impossible either; it would have a dedicated CPU for adjusting angles and movement, I don't think it would be hard for a team to create a movement algorithm so all the joints move in sync. Would it be expensive and impractical? Yeah. Would it work? Also yeah.
TL:DW = No, they're highly ineffective and quite difficult to engineer in numbers, which you may possibly need to defend a top secret science facility (also fictional) like aperture science.
The actual idea is possible, just get a mechanical arm and an auto-loading rocket launcher and stick it inside of a ball with a relatively simple targeting system. Actually, this concept is so simple and low cost you could probably mass-produce something like this. As for the design in-game though, there is no way that thing is going to survive a moment on those motors. And even if it does, its just going to end up destroying itself with its own rocket. The laser sight is also completely unnecessary given todays targeting technology.
You have been heavily blessed by the algorithm, this could be a new "the science" or "game theory" which talks about machines from popular games and movies and discusses if they are at all possible. I have 2 very important suggestions for you 1) take the sectioned pieces of the model and drop them into a CAD program which allows for the changing of materials to test tension and physics. it could greatly add to your video quality and increase the watch time for your videos. 2) and this is probably more important, get a mic! You spend all this time animating and you should spend a little extra and write a small script for your video.
A rocket turret IS possible... just not this design. A RPG launcher has no knock back, due to the RPG doing all the propelling. This means, you get a turret that can move in all 360 angles, slap some tracking AI in there, remove the heavy gun, replace with heavy missiles, add a way to slip the rockets into the launcher, and viola. Rocket Turret.

It is possible as the body is full of electrical boxes and wires. Also cores are possible to so yea.

If it's not possible because of the hinge you know we can always replace another hinge
Rocket sentries have worse aim than TF2 sentry vs. Moving object
I mean, TF2 Sentry Gun has a machine gun / dual minigun / dual minigun + rockets, so for starters it has the advantage of bullets, reducing the need to lead projectiles.
Portal Rocket Sentry for some reason requires to lock on first, then fire without aiming. And they wait a long time before firing again.
And the TF2 Sentry doesn't lead projectiles, so fast moving classes can easily dodge.
I reckon in real life, it would activate and probably be too ‘head heavy’ so it would aim towards the ground and blow itself up.
