      ​@@ItsZron Then you’re going to conquer gravity, not just in theory but on a deep mathematical level. This means mastering the intricacies of gravitational physics, where Einstein’s equations are your baseline, not the end goal. You’re not merely observing gravity; you’re going to command it. Think beyond classical mechanics - imagine manipulating spacetime curvature directly, perhaps even in higher dimensions.
      Next, you’ll design the ultimate machine, one that doesn’t just bend spacetime but punches through it. We’re talking about a device that can tear open spacetime fabric itself, constructing a gravitational proxy - a synthetic gravitational field you can control, amplify, or redirect at will. This requires an integration of quantum field principles and high-level relativistic calculations, resulting in a machine that can initiate controlled singularities or localized gravity wells.
      Once that’s set, add the wormhole gravity modifier - an intricate system designed to stabilize and shape gravitational flux in such a way that it creates a traversable wormhole. Picture a gravity-modifying module that allows you to sculpt gravitational fields with pinpoint accuracy, holding the wormhole open through a careful interplay of exotic matter and gravitational resonance.
      Finally, deploy the entire setup into space. Earth’s environment can’t handle what you’re about to do; space is your laboratory now. Position it in orbit where you’ll have the freedom to operate without interference, in the pristine silence of a vacuum, where the gravitational experiments of tomorrow become a reality. Out there, you’ll command gravity itself, bending spacetime on your terms, and opening paths to realities we’ve only imagined.

    That is SOOOOO cool !
    However, I think powering it off NoLimit Roller Coaster Simulation sounds much more immersive and precise : No need for filtering as the virtual coaster does not rattle, and it outputs raw relative acceleration data. It would also allow you to match the view FOV to the display's, and run with VRR at a high framerate
    I also think your approach to be wrong : Angular acceleration is pretty unperceptible to most people. Linear acceleration is MUCH more important for simulating roller coasters. It would however require raising the g-force governor. It's actually what most motion simulators get wrong !
    AMAZING work nonetheless !!!! Can't wait for the follow up !

    That's an epic set up. I am really impressed. Love the way you are using real world accelerometer data to effectively use any ride in the world that you have Information on. If you go full hardcore, I recommend dual encoders on each axis with cross referencing parameters for controlling the arm envelope. Feed the sensor information back through a Guard master Safety PLC from Rockwell and use safety function parameters to develop a hard stop envelope. Fun time.

      @@DavesArmoury I am sure you did what you thought is best and safest before you put some kids on it, but this is still very dangerous. Kuka has such an application already, it's called Robocoaster, and as far as I know, only machines who ware x-rayed can be use for humans. All the lasers and limits only work when electronics are working. Beside, the fact that overloading the machine can couse mechanical failure in the casting which probably was not x-rayed, is also something to keep in mind. Kids can't judge the danger, you can!

    Man, using RSI for this is definitely closer to the insane end of the scale, you can cause some *really* nasty whiplash if you time out. The best option for this, and as far as I know how KUKA did it with their RoboCoaster(in addition to using the SafeOperation option) is pre-recorded ready2animate sequences which can be started through anything(including through RSI for IPO-perfect sync). You really don't want something that will just stop mid-IPO cycle and slam on the brakes if your unsecured ROG advertisement(sorry) power cord falls out mid-twist.
    Other than that, fun project!

    • @DavesArmoury
      @DavesArmoury  5 місяців тому

      Yeah. The torque-limits on the joinse are pretty tight to minimize sudden changes. Any motion is also filtered and controlled through an intermediate server to respect respect low torque and speed. Pre-made animations would work for this phase (pre-recorded coasters) but won't work for the next phase (live data), so I jumped to the final implementation for the control

    Looks like the Robo Coaster developed by Simworx. Cool ride. I’ve been in the thrill ride industry (roller coasters and thrill rides ) for close to 18 years now. I love designing rides.

    You could also get one of the Vr headsets that just uses a phone screen and do it thats way for more "realistic" views. Incredible project! Would love to make a version myself some day

    Have you considered in the future the usage of live rendered simulations, like No Limits 2? Would provide the possibilty to make custom coaster, and still get that data (if i understand the extension at which NL2 routing provides data)

    I feel like adding some padding to the bars might be a good choice for safety. You have certainly done a great job of dialing back the forces. But I can totally see someone having a bit to much fun and nailing them selves good on the metal bracing. I say this, cause I could see myself flailing around like dum dum and doing exactly that. From the sheer joy of your wonderful creation.
    Also additional note for 3d surface measurements. Hardware store tool and trim isle, or you could print one, an adjustable molding profiler/contour gauge. Super cheap and useful tool. It will let you get a full representation of a complex surface, which you can than trace, or measure off of. Its a finish carpenters trick of the trade :) But I use it all the time for 3d printing and measuring.

      Safety? Padding won't stop an industrial robot arm from crushing your kid.

    Nice technique for shaping things using Playdoh, and then just measuring manually. Obviously 3d scanning comes to mind but then that's way to technical and over-complicated for what was needed.

    Yo I recommend using VR and also adding like a wind blower to the robot front and back so it’s like a real drop with the wind. Keep up the good work!

    To get accurate angles and measurements I stick a ruler to something then take a picture side view from both sides then overlay on my project on fusion 360 but it's super important you hold the camera perfect

    Disney actually had an attraction called Cyber Space Mountain back in 2002 at Walt Disney Studios Park in Paris where guests could design their own ride experience on a screen (using premade elements) and hop into a robot to experience it. It was more a barrel than a robot so no actual movement. Kuka also makes robot-arms for rides, whether they're mounted on a track (Forbidden journey at Universal) or fixed like your config (Danse avec les robots at Futuroscope in France) where they pull up to 3g!.

    Next step, get a VR headset and create a Roller Coaster simulator game that can simulate real roller coasters but also lets you create new ones just for fun :P

      Agreed, and it's in the works. VR for something like this is going to be pretty complex, but hopefully doable
