The Playa Crawler Construction
Вставка

- This video shows the design and build process of The Playa Crawler as well as a few set backs and redesigns that were needed to get it to a working state.
The Playa Crawler is what's considered a "mutant vehicle" or "art car" and is a piece of kinetic art. I made it to be used as my own personal vehicle to get around at Burning Man and i wanted something interesting and unique so I created a chair that walks with the legs. the leg linkage was invented by Theo Jansen, a Dutch artist who creates this massive walking sculptures called Strandbeest that walk along the beach being pushed by the wind. I designed the Playa Crawler with the Dieselpunk aesthetic in mind which is why the body has lightening holes much like you'd see on the interior of an airplane wing.
To be clear this isn't any form of wheelchair alternative as wheels are, in fact, pretty hard to beat in terms of efficiency and flexibility on differing terrain.

Perfect method of transport for a super villain.
For sure.
For a Physically Challenged Villain...So inspiring :,)
Could be a villain or just a character that is unusual like lives in a complex house with many kinds of turning gears and machinery. Some fantasy settings have characters like that.
Mojojojo vehicle
Dr. Loveless approved.
Thank you!
Oh boiii
Its you
Henlo
Hello
thank you for the plug!
If I was ever wheelchair-bound I would get myself that thing lol
This dude was ready for last oasis years ago, what a champ
THe original artist made the first concepts 30 years ago or so
You'll never catch me Krabs, not when I shift into MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE
Waka Waka underrated comment
Nunca me atrapada Congrejo, no cuando tengo MAXIMA POTENCIA
When you're playing Last Oasis too much
Hahahahahaha xd
Ahahha
true
Anyone else get recommended this after playing Last Oasis
Gamer G33k yep lol
Legs on that look nearly the same as Last Oasis walker's, except this has more.
Me too
Last Oasis didnt invent this kind of work. An Artist named Theo Jansen did. Look his stuff up on youtube
I was just about to place a comment with Last Oasis xD
Wow! What an opportunity for construction! Especially in handicap bathroom stalls! The electricians will be busy too upgrading the cross walk signs! This would be a perfect meat grinder!
Dr. Arliss Loveless would be so envious.
Beautiful job, be glad you have a couple of mills handy.
This is amazing. How much bumpier is the ride compared to a regular wheelchair?
Hugo Cornellier much bumpier.
@@zenichiworks3637 hmmm... Combining a gyroscopic stabilizer just under the seat and a set of spring shocks connecting the seat to the legs should make the ride smooth as butter.
Theoretically you could then lengthen the legs to increase speed and add stair climbing ability now that the legs can tilt while the chair remains upright.
@@GuukanKitsune or if we're lengthening the legs, we could simply add wheels
@@inspiredau5878 the point is to NOT be in a wheelchair.
And wheels would also make it unable to manage stairs, in the manner of wheelchairs.
@@GuukanKitsune all the motor function in this video doesn't assist your imagination to imagining wheels that can raise and lower?
Insane work, like something out of a post apocalypse movie. If it went faster then a whole lot better
Awesome
It could technically go faster but it means the legs have to move just that much more which i fear would end up damaging them. if the legs were bigger they could take longer strides but that comes with its own set of issues.
Mark Ellis *You sir, you're creative ;)*
They should put this in a movie
They are gonna!
Wasnt it already in Wild Wild West? :P
Mad Max: Scurry Road
You could integrate springs into the legs that push the legs down. this would decrease the peak stress on both the legs and the motors and should increase performance.
Why? Isn't the whole point of this mechanism is that the legs are moving in a straight line. I.e. not pushing up. So adding springs would not do much?
Can also use it in the garden to rototill and then pant seeds - just hang a seed bag on the back. I love it!
This man went to the renaissance era, and gave them a crankshaft out of what was left of the engine of his dad's beat up Jeep and said,"This is one of many parts of a machine that we have in the future. This machine is used for travel and can turn around 360 degrees, climb and go around rough terrain and do so in a way that keeps the driver up steadily to keep them comfortable even when they reach a violent gap in the path ahead. Although it contains many moving mechanical parts that work together and perfectly timed to do all of these things. This is the part that times everything by spinning constantly moving the parts that make it move and keeps them synced up perfectly so they keep the machine's weight balanced, preventing it from shaking." and then Da Vinci responded,"like this?" and then this man, was like,"yeah... spot on."
Nice walker dude
this is super creepy and cool
I can't tell you how cool that is.
Mad max 😆great job ! Ingenious!
Very cool! Thanks for sharing this with us.
Increible chair good job guys😉👋👍
7:20 holy crap thats a lot of coolant! 😱
Really impressive work
beautiful design
Work of an absolutely demented genius.
look up a man named theo jansen
So steampunk. I love it!
Nevermind the Got Chair .. this is innovative and creative ..very cool.
Damn this is awesome
best last oasis walker
Great work
Hi I'm from Trinidad. I love it. Pal I give you the most highest credit in making technology a profit. That's an original hit. Wow that's what you can submit. And That's the spirit. Please make it a tutorial. Make more mechanical. I always love mechanical👍
excellent work
Perfect for the waiting line at the DMV!
I mean....LOOK AT HOW *FLUID* THOSE LEGS ARE!
Hey man, I just came here to say, I love this. You got a sub!
Superb!
Wow if this can go up stairs somehow, would be great as the new dr who. Davros Dalek chair !
This reminds me a bit of the 1960s American TV show called, "The Wild, Wild West".
8:28 *The Fremen will go after him, he's stealing the Spice*
Thank you
Wow man that CNC drowns it with that white liquid hahaha compared to your little splash in the beginning ;)
Stunning model man!
You are my hero!
Last Oasis devs:
"Write that down write that down"
So dang cool! I want one lol
yknow what? That is a steampunk fantasy come to life. I can see a villain using something like that
Great work! What's the total cost of materials and work? How much time spent working on it?
Leg movement reminds me a deers leg movement seen those animals all the time
Fantastisch, besser als Rollen!
Ja warum einfach-wenn es kompliziert auch geht
This man is preparing for war
Wheel chairs are evolving
Its called a strandbeest mechanism amd its basically just simple shapes that have a complex movement. Theirs multiple variations which is why he's able to turn it around instead of it going one way
I think it's generally called the Jansen Linkage but otherwise you're right :)
This is amazing
Wonder if you could put a solar panel on the top double as shade
I don't believe for a second you designed this in SketchUp say sike right now
The last remaining excuse for leaving the chair was to top-up my Doritos and Mountain Dew... Consider me chair-bond for life now.
The Rube Goldberg Machine of Wheelchairs.
This is seriously cool mate! Can't wait to hopefully see it in person on the Playa!! Where do you camp, Mobility??
nah this isn't a wheelchair replacement. it does much worse than wheels. it just looks cool. I camp with Gigsville which is on the 3:00 side.
Fantastique !!!!
So awesome...mind if we share this across our social channels? With a link back to you, of course.
Great! Where do I get one?
it would be sick to attach some pedals and bike chains to make it human powered.
Perfect for shredding your enemies whilst you take the air.
awsome!
This is the kind of vehicle a genius would make in the apocalypse despite the fact wheels are easier to make and are more efficient
Needs lights so it’s not darkwad material, and the pilot needs a steampunk outfit to really pull it all together...
Otherwise, totally the coolest thing I’ve seen so far burn wise❤️
Gud for the museum
Dope af
bro built a contraption
No one:
UA-cam: look here is walking chair
Can you put wings on it? Or is it like the Spider Walker?
It sounds fantastic, clackediclackediclack
7:01 I expected that hammer to squeak
Why?
Best satisfying flex
I want this to replace all wheelchairs, the to make the world or more interesting place!
This is awesome! :D
How long will it walk(?) until the battery is out of energy?
NewNick so far I’ve got it to go about 2 miles. Right now I have two red top optima lead acid batteries but they’re normally meant as a starter batteries so I think they don’t like being drawn constantly like deep cycle batteries would be. I’m planning on going to lithium next.
Mark Ellis how much weight can it lift and how much does it effect performance?
Zachary Bittner I’ve sat a 260 pound person on it and it worked but it didn’t like it so i think the limit is 200. I donno how much it affects performance.
Zenichi Works I would love to see it’s energy efficiency compared to an equivalent platform on wheels. I bet it’s pretty comparable.
Have you done any more work on this or improved the system since this video?
Freakin' AWESOME. Only if were Corvair-powered could it be any better.
The only issue I see is the seat more be to far back. Would love to see how it does on inclines.
This is great but the simple wheel is way more efficient.
This will be magic for crippled from farming family In India.
Should be in a fantastic science film
I want one really bad
Efficiency: about zero. Complexity: about yes. Exactly as I like it
I hope they ad this walker in the last oasis
NOW thats something the TechPriests of Mars would use in the Warhammer 40,000 universe. Walking is so.... pedantic. We need something extravagantly over the top and mechanical.
Молодец!!!
lf l ever get into wheelchair, l'll get this one.
That is a badass wheelchair... or should i say CRAWLCHAIR?
Ok I'll leave now.
Crawlerchair
Legchair
wonder how many torque batteries it takes to run that thing... 8P
Does it go in reverse?
Wild Wild West
you sir are a fucking genius
It's the steampunk wheelchair from Wild Wild West!
You just need a few more steampunk arm attached to it and some greebling on the back and it's done
is this going to be an commercial product, and if so how much would it cost?
Where do I buy the steel drum one at the beginning??/?/?/?/?
The Crawler is a pretty good name, I would like to suggest, 'Hephaestus'
What other projects you got going???
''Fron the moment i realized the weakness of my flesh..."
I went here from DDOI
Here before it get viral
