Nice to see you have set things up to your taste. and thanks for the compliment. I am happily restoring 1970"s Motorcycles in retirement.
What an incredible journey you've been on, from bidding farewell to your cherished workshop in Eastern Europe to embracing the challenges of a new beginning in the United States. Stepping into a role previously occupied by a seasoned veteran in electronics, inheriting an entire Electronics Workshop, is nothing short of a dream come true. Wishing you continued success and fulfillment in this exciting chapter of your career!
Amazed that in the 7 months since the last video you have managed to up sticks, move your family to a new country, start a new job, and had time to produce a new video. All 3 of those robots look really cool, hope you can give at least one a new lease of life. And I love the Koyaanisqatsi vibes in the latest piece. That movie blew my mind when i discovered it!
I would use it for Tesla coil experiments -- driven by computers. Its a challenge in that you have to create opto isolation so that high voltage A/C doesn't make its way to your computer and fry it. Computers can be used to both SHAPE a pulse, control its frequency, amplitude, etc. One thing Tesla was interested in was not boring sign waves, but voltage pulses, spikes, weird patterns on the signal, etc. With computers you can manipulated things very precisely if you have good gear.
I am a father of two son, you’ve said a word that I am waiting for to say in future after passing down all my stuff knowledge and facilities.. “there you go kids, let’s see what you can do”
Congratulations! Love to see you back! You asked how to build a workshop for what you haven't become yet. Well, if I may offer a suggestion, here it is: make sure to prepare your workshop for filming. You have a real talent at this UA-cam thing and I feel like this channel is going to get bigger and bigger. Good luck!
I am glad to see you back. A new shop and a new outlook, the future looks great! I can't wait to see what is to come from this channel. Thanks for sharing your journey.
What a great job you are doing Thomas. The workshop is very spacious, it's wonderful! I've also done several moves, I understand that it's stressful, then you did it from one side of the globe to the other... I'm curious how you're going to fix that Robot. Thank you for this nice video and best wishes so that you can settle in your new country as best as possible. Simon
Why did this awesome channel suddenly show up on my UA-cam, and I'm just finding out about it now? Great content and masterful in cinematography.. Your videos are amazing, and I really look forward to seeing more great ones in the future.
Hi Sir, I normally don't write comments on videos, but I just wanted to say that this is one of the best channels I've come across in a while. I've watched all your videos and appreciate the work you put into it. Keep up the good work!
I subscribed just after 2 videos ago, and both times that you have uploaded since then I watch the video thinking "whos this guy" then "oh, smart and good looking videos, im gonna subscribe" followed by a "Oh, I already am." what im trying to say is ive tried to subscribe to your channel 3 times now. I cant wait to see where this new workshop goes.
Those light blue Weller soldering stations were everywhere 40 years ago, and they are still everywhere! Those two other ultrasonic autonomous robots, I think were modular and sold as kits with different attachment options to Universities, that should at least mean documentation is around.
@@ThomasBurns I'm not a subscriber, but I remember watching some of your build videos before, and you obviously are skilled in all relevant fields, analog, digital, mechatronics. I had no idea you were an university professor, just that you are drawing on more disciplines in your projects, which is a pleasure to watch.
Fantastic video, Mr. T, and I love how you've created a new home for your family, started your new career, and made a new incubator for your intellectual pursuits! Looking forward to seeing more of your adventures, and Gagimarjos, batano!
Good luck on your new journey! The Puma 560 and the Barratt Arm (the two black arms in the storage) were the first robots I worked on as well. Brought back memories. A robotics lab is a great place to be.
8:40 that’s an ibm Selectric 1 and it suffers from the keys locking up and the clutch breaking in a half which could be identified by a clicking sound when turned on.
I started watching these robotics videos and couldn't stop. Just bought 2 robots this month one scorbot-er III that I got running smoothly and one very cool 5 foot tall humanoid robot made by the creator of johnny 5 that I am at a loss of where to start with it runs windows 95 uses a large car battery for power and has a whole box truck of parts that came with it. you've got the itch in me I'll get this one finished.
You make building such cool stuff look so easy, Congratulations on the new mobe, I'm sure they are very happy to have you. So sad I was planning to visit Georgia, pass by and say hi from a stranger fan.
This is so crazy because I was just thinking about you. Wondering how you were, etc. Turns out you've been a busy bee. Exciting things are a foot! Excellent! I'm super excited for you! I almost forgot to say CONGRATULATIONS 🎊!
Just "rediscovered" your channel this week, and it is now at the top of my list! Your editing, music, and content are awesome...keep up the good work! 👍🏼
9:10 recommend a WARNING sign near the capacitors. People can grab these and get killed. Make sure to short them with resistor when just sitting there.
4:28 Robot -- 1978. When I was in college in those years, I had a summer job at Intel and our little custom microprocessor group wanted to make a Robot using sonar sensors from cameras and an electric wheel chair for mobility. We imagined the sonar detector would be mounted on a stepper motor so that it could rotate around and then map the environment. Very cool that your robot here has many sonar detectors. I'm familiar with Digilent PMOD devices (i2C and SPI interfaces). These are very low cost. There are other vendors of course. One nice little computer science project would be to play with the sonar sensor -- write the software for it, map the environment and even plan routes thru the environment using traveling-salesman, Dijkstra's algorithm, etc. Fast maze solving was a project I recall trying to do back in 1982. We wanted our little robot to just deliver stuff to cubicles in the company and be a novelty item for visitors. But today we add neural networks, training, etc. Self driving cars have LIDAR sensors. The modern sensors are amazing. What NVDIA showed last night. OMG!!!
Congratulations and welcome to new england neighbor! I live close by in Spingfield, and even went to the zoo back in the day as well as did some consulting for umass as well. I wish you well and thank you for bringing great technology to our young people. 👏 👏 👏
Okay, my obsessive mind is going to need to see you clean the rest of the paint off @2:30. 🙂 I love everything else about the video. It seems like a hedgehog. Subscribed!
You are a brilliant, inventive, prolific visionary. But I believe your "first gift" is in cinematography. The views, sequence, music, it is all very entertaining as well as inspirational. The eastern European backdrop was so beautiful and "romantic"! But its good to have you home. Welcome home!
@@ThomasBurns You may not belive this, but long time ago, I saw your last video "The coolest robot I've ever built!" and I've felt in love with it. This week I was thinking to myself "Whats the name of the youtuber who make that video?". I wasn't able to remember and for a long time I've didn't see anything from you. Funny how today I got recomendation from youtube for a new video from you! I already activate the notifications, don't want to miss it anymore!
This is an awesome channel. Looking into the future, I would love to find a similar job here in Hawaii. All the best. Looking for more videos. Aloha. 😊
1. So many great stories in one video. 2. Harvey Wallbanger would make a great little waiter for parties, like R2D2 aboard Jabba's barge. 3. Congratulations to you and your very nice family, I hope everyone is adjusting well.

Sir i absolutely love your content, the first video i watched from you was that coolest robot one ever since then ive watched all your videos absolutely love them and congratulations on your new workshop 🎉🎉
Once again, the production value and attention to detail in your storytelling is inspiring! New workshop looks amazing, I only have one question: where is AlexaTron?
Thanks so much for the encouraging words! Alexatron is safe and sound in Tbilisi-we couldn’t bring him over when we moved. The good news is that I’m working on version 2 now, with wheels, vision, and an LLM!
The saddest part is what will happen with the soviet electronic videos??? Eitherway your stuff has inspired me to maybe start doing youtube videos about soviet stuff because not a lot of people are familiar with it and people would like to learn about it. Anyway i hope you are doing well and greetings from Bulgaria!
Very welcome! I found your channel back when I was in Tbilisi, I actually reached out to possibly visit your workshop there on IG, I see now you and your family we're very busy moving your whole lives across the world. Best of luck in the new position and most of all have fun!@@ThomasBurns
I agree! The university is surrounded by farmland, but there is some very interesting brutalist architecture on campus. Buildings that must have been very bold when they were built. Very similar in fact to a lot of the architecture in Eastern Europe, but without the decay. :)
Great video 😊. But despite being an electronics-savvy person, was there a logical reason why you went with the wasteful incandescent lights instead of LEDs? 9:26
Some high-quality dimmable LED bulbs would have worked. For me the color quality of the light when dimmed is important. There probably exist dimmable LED bulbs now that can replicate the same color/quality of light as dimmed tungsten, but I had these sitting around so I went with what I knew. :)
Yes I saved them. They aren't quite as interesting from a historical perspective, but I'm just not capable of throwing away old robots. Thanks for watching!
Hey , i really like your videos . Im 17, and I came from your alexa robot video, and i really hope that one day i will be able to reach a 1000th of you level .it drem of mine to build a robot like that .I wish the best 🎉 bravo
Thanks for watching, Tibouthine! You don’t need a university degree or a fancy workshop to build a robot. All you need is a hunger to learn and the courage to fail. Feel free to send me an email if you have questions about where to start. :)
Had to leave a lot of it behind in storage, unfortunately. But we’ll be going back every year to see friends and family. So my hope is I can still get a lot of it to the new workshop. :)
I'm working on MkII now, and it's a lot more complex than MkI. First off, it will be mobile. And it will have a pre-trained LLM instead of the Alexa platform. It will also have much more developed vision capabilities. It's just taking a lot longer to build. :)
Every single part of this was masterful in cinematography, and wonderful in story. Congrats on your new workshop, make sure to put it to good use.
Thank you, Yitzchuk! You’re right: the main thing isn’t the workshop, but what we make in it. :)
