Comment of the year.
...but he didn't. He used someone else's code.
What I learned from this channel over the years is that in order to do less work you have to do more work than you originally had to.
because it’s only ever less work for future you never present you

It's just converting the work into other work that you like more. In this case he could just suck it up and write them out, or he could make a machine to do, that he not only is much more suited too, but also enjoys it's and allows him to hone his craft.

@@whatadude4841yes but it’s not a person. It’s a perfectly calibrated auto rig
@notnotme1715 you two are pretty funny
I'm surprised pen pressure on the paper wasn't more of a problem. Seems like the robots perfect line darkness would stand out more.
My guess is they actually talked about how good they were, and what we saw was what we were allowed to hear.
I came here to say this, but in my heart I knew it had already been said
Probably not the most notable thing, especially if you consider if they were actually sent out you’d only see 1 and would have no comparison for the pen pressure,
And repetition is much more noticeable to the brain
@@BossKnightalso ballpoint pens, especially decent quality ones, tend to have little variation in darkness with pressure.
You would be able to see lots of different pressures between each letter. When handwriting, you have to lift up your hand for each letter so you wouldn't be able to use the same pressure on every one
This video is the embodiment of "we do things not because they are easy, but because we thought they were"
and we make necessary concessions when we realize it was a little bit too not-easy

🎶WE DO WHAT WE MUST BECAUSE WE CAN! 🎶
Ok, one major tip: natural hand writing is in fact a 3D action not just 2D, meaning that the writer exerts higher and lower pressure vertical to the paper surface as they write, which results in the pen line becoming thinner and thicker at different sections of a letter! Next try to build the Y-axis movement into that robot!!
Brutal
Or the microscopic human skin flakes and grease we leave on the paper while writing?
Yes I thought the handwriting expert would make this point. Maybe the robot does press more in some places?
I was about to suggest the same haha
Not only the pressure of the pen but angle of the pen too (or rather two angles) and the writing speed.

@@Zal1810yeah like that surgeon who m4rd3red ~300 minors before realizing he can be a doctor
just a tip when using neural networks. In the video, I noticed after every bug you fixed, the editing at least made it look like you spent ~50 hours training the RNN again. Usually, you can use smaller datasets to train the networks and see if the output is slightly acceptable before spending the 2 days training the network with the full dataset.
Bingo
I also notice he didn't plot his training loss / validation loss. It's very important to be able to know if both are decreasing, otherwise you might just be overfitting to noise or something. 😆

I feel like, in this case, a forensic handwriting expert being able to make a profile for your handwriting bot is a feature, not a bug. After all, you're *not* trying to make 20,000 unique sets of handwriting, you are trying to make *one* set of handwriting that is consistent across 20,000 use instances. And if he sees enough shared characteristics between the different pieces of writing to work out a profile, that means they are identifiable as having been written by the same person (or, I guess, robot). Which means that you succeeded in creating a unique and consistent handwriting style
I have to say, one of the most helpful parts of your video was when you gave up and used code off the internet. It's nice to see others realize that some other people just do things better sometimes and you don't have to re-invent the wheel every single project. Buying a plotter, borrowing code. This is how things move forward. Good luck in your new shop!
That's how science and engineering works. You use what other people have done in the past to create something new.
Anyone have tips on how to do this more? I often feel like I'm spending just as much time figuring out how to integrate or implement their code into mine. I suppose that's just down to the quality of the documentation?
yeah, I started writing a custom library for playing audio files in vanilla JS, and then I thought "wtf am I doing - just find an open source one". And lo and behold, there are like 5 of them.
@@EmersonPeters Be sure of what you need. Once you know what goes in and what goes out you can use other works as a black box. GPT can also help with code integration nowadays.
That is why i share every line of my codes to github... it feels great to see someone uses something you did and turn it into something more useful 😂
I love the field of Computer Science.
Spending 4 months to create something to do a 3 hour task for me just gives such a huge feeling of accomplishment.
Until a year later when you need to do the task 10,000 times. Or 1M times.
thats how mostly any machine got made.
There's two reasons why investing a lot of time to gain small benefits:
- If you repeat the task, there will come one point where your work amortizes itself
- You probably invest all the time (i.e. 12 hours for 10 minutes faster tasks) at a point where you have it available and you also have fun with it. I've done the same for my collagues with some forms - they may only save a couple of minutes but we all get done faster and have less repetitive tasks since they're done automatically.
in my junior year of hs i had an obsession with writing code to basically make specialized calculators for whatever we were doing in math. definitely spent more time on making those programs than time i would've spent actually doing the work, but it was fun lol
This really gave me a mood boost as a starter CS student
Your training process, and failures afterwards remind me of my early days in computers in high school. We "wrote" programs on a paper teletypewriter, using a computer program named BASIC. Each line was numbered, resulting in hundreds or thousands of lines of commands. The we hIt "RUN". and would wait to see what the computer would do. each run resulted in "successive approximations" until we got it to run. That was in 1973! Wow, I thought that those days were over! Great video.
wait... I thought that was how things were done....
Basic is basically programming on root, tough stuff
Yup! lol. PDP-11 in 1976. We had to punch a paper tape to save the program for the next class. Newsprint as I recall. Didn't always work, yah, then you had to retype it.
This is probably the best visual description of gradient descent I've seen! Awesome video!!
My favorite part of this channel is how you show yourself making mistakes, finding the error, and trying again. Over and over and over.
You're inspiring.
As a full time programmer, that "But why!?!?" - "Ooooh..." really made me nod and giggle haha
Lol yea makes me feel fine about my work process 😅

funny.
Totally missed that, you are definitely correct.
18k arm
These animations are amazing! Can’t image how much work went into this video.
the most educational part of this is when he says, "on the first try, too! that never happens!" I always got discouraged as a kid when I didn't get things on the first try and i gave up. i didn't have any confidence to try again because i always tried my hardest the first time. If my best try wasn't good enough, no further tries seemed like they'd fare any better, so i, being a very reasonable and smart kiddo, concluded i just wasn't very good at that thing.
Honestly I think that having a postcard written by a project you made is way cooler than having one hand written

In fainress he actually ended up just using someone else's code on someone else's robot. All he did was feed it paper with a second robot.
@@Electric999999 he also handed the robot a pen haha. Seriously though he did engineer the trays to hold the cards, the system for picking them up and dropping them, the system for holding the cards for the writing bot and integrated those 2 robots together with the code etc. so it's not quite as easy but yeah.
Giving up and using an existing code base is actually very typical of engineers in other jobs too lol.

This guy is a literal genius. I have yet to find anyone with the creative AND practical means to have such an amazing end product. Congratulations, you're a badass.
I kept all my school documents. And that is a lot of hand writing. I wanted to scan it all, and use OCR with a temporal variable. That way I can see handwriting improve over time. And also train a model to write whole words, not just single letters.
But scanning two full boxes of documents takes over a week. And I don't have any scanner.
I feel like a vector sequence model instead of a pixel model would generalize better.

I program similar robots for CNC production. One that that made me curious was to the paper getting picked up problem. He built those platforms with the springs which is near but those robots have the ability to compensate for those sorts of things.
We have pallets that we place parts on and we can teach the first point on the pallet and the robot auto compensates and grabs each part and moves up and down the pallets automatically.
@@specialsause949 Same here, programming for cnc tending. The function I used was called servo float or soft servo. And the end effector would stop with a programmed force.
I was hoping you would go more into the actual mechanics of penmanship since the ML and graphical/font side of this is likely been researched quite a bit. As a dynamic font the results were great but still the giveaway to me was the super consistent perpendicular constant pressure strokes. Wouldve been cool to see u tackle variable stroke tilt, speed, presssure mechanics. The tapered stroke you get from the flick of a pen is completely absent.
Love the chemistry between you two.

The amount of effort this took is incredible!
This is one of the most interesting videos I've seen!! I subscribed!!
One of my family member is graphologist. She told me that the pressure you put on each letter with your pen is also examined (showing how much emotion you put on some words)
So if you're only looking at the 2D-shape of your letters, you're missing something.
Oh, I literally just mentioned the same thing before scrolling. 1:11 if you pause and full screen it gives a perfect example of what you are saying.
This definitely could be sorted with a bit of pressure from an actuator on the pen
The interesting part about that he can implement that into the machine with the suction function. By adding the amount of suction to each specific word or letter at least 50% of the words wouldn't have the same pressure due to the change of suction for each words and since the care isn't rigid there would be tiny (I assume only noticeable under investigation) changes. It's a crazy thing he has built
@@bryang2280 Honestly I think you could just have the writing machine itself do it. It already can lift and push down the pen (since that's how it works lol) so I don't see why you couldn't just have it push down when writing certain lines more than others
This was my biggest “tell” of real vs fake. Hard to copy the random pressures and pen scratches made by pens when handwriting something. Like the little tail left behind when finishing a word and lifting the pen at the same time.
FINALLY. So glad to see another vid from you! You’re the most committed creator on this platform and I love your story telling / humor.

You should send these to "handwriting experts" who think they can get insights into a persons personality or backstory from their handwritting.

@@dariusftw3378 At school I had absolutely horrible handwriting when I was joining each letter up so I started to write individually and am now trying to unlearn 10 years of writing that way because it looks kinda unprofessional.
I think that 2 possible differences from the normal handwriting are pressure variations and speed variations these 2 can be especially seen with fountain pens. In this case even the angle at which the pen is held changes as the word progresses and this changes line geometry
I had the same thoughts
Ditto, the pen needs variability & pressure feedback
@@EngineerMikeF yeah, it could be even implemented as controlling the pen force instead of controlling pen height, made as a weird closed loop system. Or simply move the pen up and down and have it spring loaded, the force of typical spring should be roughly proportional to the amount it was compressed / extended
Maybe the pen could be connected to a spring so as it moved there would be a slight wobble and / or a random offset could be applied each point making up a letter. Would also like to see some deliberate spelling/ writing mistakes to be more human like
Ink smear. Near impossible to have a machine replicate this.
You are a genius man, keep it up! 👍🏼
To me, the main danger from forgeries is in faking signatures on documents. I'll bet the pressure points of my signature are recognizable to an expert, (from their depth and spacing on the paper, not necessarily from ink flow), no matter how sloppily I sign it. I sincerely hope you don't explore copying signatures too deeply!

Omg, your segment on debugging machine learning programs was so depressingly accurate. Training something for hours, checking the predictions, and getting complete nonsense. Just to learn that you did something dumb somewhere (like maybe you used a '-' instead of a '+' somewhere). Then train again, and repeat until either you get it working, or you give up on life.
Though of note: it is important to monitor NN training. Looking at loss, accuracy, and any other metric while you are training. Also training on smaller datasets first to iron out bugs so that you don't waste as much time.
Dude is a genius it's Honestly amazing watching his designs become reality
Your resourcefulness is frightening
This guy is the epitome of answering questions nobody asked but wished they did
Facts lol
This would’ve been so useful in elementary school for me with those notice of low scores slips I got
So I love the realness of this video. As a fellow scientist I understand when you say “I have no idea what I’m doing” and it’s so true. None of us do we all rely so much on each other to solve our problems and the past achievements of others to move forward. That being said pls upload more even if it’s just updates about current projects or anything else you find interesting.
That is normal? I'm currently doing my bachelors degree and feel like that half of the time.
He's not scientist He's engineer better than a scientist
@@tillthiemann6448 Of course it’s going to feel that way. You wouldn’t learn much if you just kept repeating stuff you knew. Math degrees are not earned by repeating “1+1=2” for 50-60 hours a week for four years.
Malcolm Gladwell suggests 10,000 hours to master a skill: practice, feedback, learn new stuff just outside your comfort zone.
I *knew* you were in NC! I felt it in my bones!!
This has easily become my favorite youtuber over the last 2 years.
“Building stuff of dubious utility” is the best tag line ever. So happy to see you back!

@RanDix he had the video uploaded and set to private beforehand
Been waiting for his videos
I was looking for his onshape for a while!
To improve efficiency you could power the vacuum components with a single vac if you attached a switching valve and corresponding logic. You could even very the speed of it to make the hand off as smooth as possible.
Lets give your wife an award, shes so great on camera an know just how to come at you so that we smile endlessly
She's a cracking addition to the video, fr.
"i knew that she would know, so i did the opposite of that, and thought maybe she would....."
wife... stares into space contemplating all her lifes decisions....
absolute chefs kiss perfection.
That's how wives work
It makes me actually want a wife
Dude she's so smart
2 things got me to stop collecting sports cards with autographs. 1 was how depressing it looked having an athlete at a table with 1000 cards on their coffee table awaiting autographs. The 2nd was learning about autopen and finding out celebrities and prominent figures have been using the concept for 100 years.
Longer than that. Thomas Jefferson made extensive use of an early version during his presidency.
@@allangibson8494 dang it, totally meant to have a + after 100 🤦♀️
@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ oh nice, an especially culty verse this time
Stuff made here i came to your most recent video because i know a youtuber styropyro is very smart like you but with a rare specialty if you guys collaberated that would be very symbiotic and satisfying to watch would personally be at the top of my youtube bucket list. Trust me!
I can imagine a laser printer that burns the moon.
bro learned machine learning algorithms instead of writing postcards. love it please keep it up
Honestly this makes the notes even more charming. Knowing the story behind the cards makes them that much cooler
