I like the video and the idea! (I know you're not hacky) one suggestion I have is you program it to speak and modify it to work with the sound maybe coming from some tts
This is a great project! this would be one more people could build and modify and add more and more to it. lots of room in the body for much more. I love it! you could even do three wheels if you need more stable for carrying things as a modification. I think you are on to something. I would love one running around the house. lol. good by Roomba lol
Very interesting. I like how, during the video, you rattle off the components and the open source examples for those of us who might be interested in trying something like this.
Fun function for this one would be a "Follow" mode, where it follows a small transmitter you can fit in your pocket. Would be an interestin challenge to implement.
Blynk would probably be a good tool for that. At it's simplest you just need a GPS sensor on the robot and have it constantly try to match the GPS position of the phone. Toss in a Raspberry Pi or maybe a more powerful Jetson and use a Kinect to do obstacle avoidance.

James, Excellent!!! I can't tell you enough how great it is to see a project that most of us could handle doing. Keep these new kind of "Smaller" projects coming. -That's not to say I don't enjoy the others. I'm not trying to insult you at all, I just think that sometimes projects get a little too complicated at times and some of us have a hard time following along. :) Cheers and Thank you!!!
Hello James, you're a robotics genius, your job is fantastic, sensational. Could you provide the step-by-step tutorial of the project with the components, measures and schema? It's for a school job. Please, James.
Wow James! This is great - I havent seen many oversized ones of these - felt like star wars but in real life- would be able to make a really good household service robot with this to deliver drinks from the fridge etc... please keep working on this. really good!
Could you make a "Tuning Remote" that has 4 or 5 knobs and a few switches and a screen? Then you can live tune the PID loop and the centerpoint/setpoint and then just record the values from the screen and put them back into the original code.
How are the lights on the speaker controlled? You can't connect it to your microcontroller and set colours from the remote control, can you? That'd be fun if you could, and good for LG because I always go for easily hackable products!
Maybe part 3 can be to give the robot computer vision (openCV) with maybe raspberry pi but it is not powerful to image process (low fps) so a more powerful one would be Jetson nano from Nvidia. Again great video James!:DD
Nice project! I was wondering if Jeff Rowberg's library is compatible with the teensy 3.6 without any modifications to the code in the library. I am eager to get a teensy, but not entirely sure how my arduino code will transfer to the teensyduino. Any suggestions?
i think you should consider adding adjustable balance tail which might help with riding forward while holding things, or adding force sensors to the arms that will allow to calculate the new ballance angle good luck -,-
Thanks for answering this. I'm also working on a similar project and I can't get it to work for quite a while now. Maybe adding some extra mass on the top of the robot would help me also.
I'm looking for advice about a good robotics simulator to create a virtual robot. I'm trying to do a digital twin of a robot I have. It's built with a raspberry pi and run by python so ideally the simulator will be able to represent that. I also would want to control the virtual robot with my own GUI. Are there any softwares I can use to do this?
ROS (Robot Operating System) and the Gazebo Simulator. Takes a bit to get used to, but is documented well enough. Python is supported. You could actually use a real RPi to control the virtual robot, as ROS is designed to be a distributed system. You'd have to write your own GUI module, though there are some made by other users.
Hello James, great videos, keep it up :-) are there two-wheel balancing robot stl or CAD files? Didn't find them on xRobots, thanks for the help Greetings from Germany Eric
I noticed that your CNC table isn't very rigid. This will reduce quality exponentially. Also a tip for cutting holes with a CNC just cut the outside of the circle and maybe use tabs it will cut down proces time Exponentially (no pun intended)
hi iam trying to build a bicycle power meter using strain gauges accelerometer as some diy suggest iam stuck with writing the code for it , can you help me????

You are going to have a lot of wheel skid during turn because of your large wheel footprint.
can you mount one of those motors on a linear actuator?
Fun function for this one would be a "Follow" mode, where it follows a small transmitter you can fit in your pocket. Would be an interestin challenge to implement.
Yes I was going to suggest to make it follow, it would be a cool addition to the project.
That would be awesome!
forget abiut that, the RF thecnology needed would be eay too much to detect the proximity.
What? I'm just taking my robot for a walk. He plays me music.

I don’t honestly know where you find all the hours in the week to do all these great projects!
He has 3D printed robot assistants! :P
I really want his channel to grow more and more so that more and more people cant get educated by his genius projects

its nice that they are sponsoring you. and their product fits in with your robots!
Probably the most underrated channel 😢😢😢... Superb buddy
You inspire me everyday, I'm also getting into robotics and this just made me want to build my big robot more thanks james
Great sponsorship idea and cool project, I'm amazed how much progress you make in each video these days. Keep up the great work James :)
thanks!
Really glade that you're back to the cool stuff.
Love this James! Seems like it went together really well! Can’t believe how well it balances with that mass! Can’t wait to see it under control!
First time in your channel I have seen a project where outcome is more than Engineering!!!

You should try getting some synthesizer chips, and synthesize a voice for it.
Truly awesome James. You can build anything. Cheers!
This is a great way to feature sponsored content James, well done.
Hello James, great project, I would like to recreate that, can you give out the CAD files?
Thanks a lot
greetings
Eric
Perfectly balanced.
As all things should be.
We could set up a play date for our balancing cars 😂
great video Thank you very much James! please keep up ur great work :)
Awesome! you always make projects that I want but I don't have the time to research and then build it... Thanks for sharing.
Make it great . Lol it looks like a Nintendo robot.dude you really love your projects you can see how you grew over the years . Keep it up .
Could I get a parts list for all the non-printable bits?
The coolest placement I've ever seen.
super!
do you shared this as a tutorial? the code you used?
Could you get the robot to follow you through some kind of blue tooth controller?
Hello James, you're a robotics genius, your job is fantastic, sensational. Could you provide the step-by-step tutorial of the project with the components, measures and schema? It's for a school job. Please, James.
Will you ever finish Johnny five as a robot
Wow James! This is great - I havent seen many oversized ones of these - felt like star wars but in real life- would be able to make a really good household service robot with this to deliver drinks from the fridge etc... please keep working on this. really good!
There is one more video next week!
What did you do use multiple printers ?I bet it took a week to do each wheel ?
You should try to build Johnny #5 from short circuit.
Search the channel; he worked on one a while back.
Finally, You started thinking about making money :). Your projects are not cheap. Regards :)
Really hope there is going to be some teensy generated "8 bit" audio for the speaker to play. Over bluetooth of course!
Dudeeeee, how many hours these videos take you, too much hard work, when I make videos in my channel, they take less than your channel, you are a pro

"It's a good brand because it's lg" XD
😆..
Impressive
I have to say; one of my favorite projects to date. Do you have the parts list and stl/gcode files on thingiverse? Please and Thank you!
Ninjaflex is not cheap ! Any commercially available tires of around that size (looks like 15 - 20 cm diameter) ?
Perfect!
Cool James
Will there be github for this amazing work? Thanks and have a good day
How much did all this cost you?
Great work 👍🏻👍🏻
Would you ever try make a working Wall-E robot?
is it true stereo or both L&R from both speakers ?
Nice, I like the project!
Can this design to up and down stairs?
Hey @James Bruton, I know this is fairly old but could you publish the code for this robot on your github please?
what cnc machine you used, and how much it cost?
amazing work keep it up
Wow... super quick one... very well done. How much does it cost for the parts and filaments
Please make the arms move to the music!
No sound from the speakers? Did you get empty demo boxes? Did you get paid for all materials used?
Wait for part 2
@@jamesbrutonWill do! Love your channel.
How are the lights on the speaker controlled? You can't connect it to your microcontroller and set colours from the remote control, can you? That'd be fun if you could, and good for LG because I always go for easily hackable products!
by the sound coming out of the speakers
Wonder how an ESP32 would stack up against the Teensy.
Cool robot! Great film. Cheers! : )
What are the motors that you are using?
Never mind, I figured it out.
You are one amazing dude!

That will happen in another project series I have coming up soon
I am definitely really excited about that James!:o
im shock, you done so much work in a very short amount of time

@@jamesbruton thank you for the advice can’t wait to get working with a teensy!
Why don't you make the head swivel toward sound like with ultron?
i think you should consider adding adjustable balance tail which might help with riding forward while holding things, or adding force sensors to the arms that will allow to calculate the new ballance angle good luck -,-
any balance addon on the speaker robot help the dog walk
Add some proximity and IR sensors(a few bucks), or possibly a camera for object tracking so it could follow its owner.
Nice work! Did you use a sampling timpe of 10ms for the PID? Any additional filtering made on the IMU data?
The MPU6050 has DMP so it gives you accurate values. Yes 10ms, but 20 would do just as well.
Thanks for answering this. I'm also working on a similar project and I can't get it to work for quite a while now. Maybe adding some extra mass on the top of the robot would help me also.
James makes robots out of various consumer goods? I'd watch a series about that.... /wink

@@jamesbruton ok, thanks James, but I meant the one with LG XBOOM Go Speakers, is there something for that?
greetings
Eric
You should add like a voice command thing like an Alexa with a digital mouth to make it look more like a face😂
The speaker can already do that if you pair it with your phone and use Siri or an Android app.
James Bruton oh cool is that a plan of yours
The labeling on your crane is in the wrong order, isn't it? It must be 1/2, 1, 1 1/2, 2Ton I think ;-)

hi iam trying to build a bicycle power meter using strain gauges accelerometer as some diy suggest
iam stuck with writing the code for it , can you help me????
Hey if you want help with coding, try asking a forum like stackoverflow.com/ and please explain your problem to the last detail
Will he ever finish a project?
This one finished next week. The only other ongoing project now is openDog - until my next series starts shortly.
Amazing just subed
P=V^2/R (Power = Voltage squared / R), so if you double the voltage, you quadruple the power, generally
motors are inductors, not resistors.
@@pascha4527
So true! But power is not proportional to voltage, is it?
The speed and torque is proportional to voltage, isn't it?
Cool
wow
well done big guy! i wish you all the confidence you can expect' you inspire me never stop :

Nice
If you're looking for a name for the little guy in the future, can I suggest Brian? 😜

I suggest Thanos, because it's perfectly balanced
I know you build robots but who built you?
robots
@@jamesbrutonI knew it. it's robots the whole way up.
Interesting Robot segway speaker. 240 pounds for the large BT speaker though, ROFLMAO.
couldn't you technically use off the shelf hoverboard components for something like this?
put a mini keg in the chest and a tap on the arm
So close to 666k subs
Boombot!
he should be able to serve drinks!!
Great video and great robot! Also jump to 13.46 to see how to sell a product James Brunton Style !
u should make it follow your bluetooth signal so your little robo buddy follows u and u can still hear the music
impossible
how so? i guess tracking with bluetooth would be hard but there are other ways
عالی بود
look really good ha ha it ran over your foot
XBoom Go... ing to kill us all!
Hay à nha
biped when? ;)
Well, in the past, quite a few times. Check out Robot X and the GONK Droid
👏👏👏👏👏👏👌👌👌👌👏👏👏👏👏
Love it. "Here's a great project that has nothing to do with our sponsors... Here's a word from our sponsors!..."
Ah, capitalism. :)
"Meanwhile, here's something I made by shoehorning the sponsor's product into the project..."
WINNING! :)
