    "Let H denote a horse." is my new catchphrase.

    Bob and Brady! Two of my favorites in the same video. That said if you want legs on a cart Izzy Swan is probably the guy to talk to

      Theo Jansen's ideas on bulldogs and dinosaur's are fine for me.

    Best part: Let (h) denote horse!

    Boston Dynamics is building these now. They are frighteningly efficient, as they hop and jump and run over rough terrain with ease. The Cart with Legs is here, now, and not silly at all.

    • @gildedbear5355
      @gildedbear5355 6 років тому +11

      But notably, Boston Dynamics has not included a horse as part of the cart with legs. Perhaps the presence of the horse was holding Potter's design back? /h

    • @kustomweb
      @kustomweb 6 років тому +1

      I think one of their monsters is in fact a Mule...

    • @jefferywilliams4533
      @jefferywilliams4533 6 років тому

      True, but look at how many years they have been working on it, not to mention the serious amount of tech onvolved.

    • @kustomweb

      Kudos to Mr Potter, only took them 400 years to achieve the dream

    • @Ana_crusis
      @Ana_crusis 6 років тому

      yes but we had to wait for a lot of technological advances. that is a common occurrence. There is no need to shout about it, no one is calling robots silly. 350 years ago it was a different story.

    I Like to Make Stuff is a fantastic channel and very sub-worthy. I love all of Brady's channel's and very much appreciate this crossover.

  • @AsbestosMuffins

    boston dynamics, get on this!
    on the other hand we know how to build the strombeasts which have dozens of legs and walk along pretty clip and stable. its a surprisingly elegant and simple design that gets pretty complex

  • @whoeveriam0iam14222
    @whoeveriam0iam14222 6 років тому +24

    I thought it would be legs like a Strandbeest (look it up, it's cool) has. that's what people build nowadays when they use legs instead of wheels when there is no active control of the legs

    • @panonf.9106
      @panonf.9106 6 років тому

      Strandbeests are awesome!

    • @grieske
      @grieske 6 років тому +1

      I agree on the awesomeness of Theo Janssen's works. Chebychev's plantigrade machine is similarly wonderful.

    • @JuxtaposedStars
      @JuxtaposedStars 6 років тому

      Yes, I immediately thought of those as well! The Strandbeast is(sort of)self propelled by wind vanes and walks under its own power. It seems the cart was meant to passively walk while being pulled. Hypothetically, it's advantageous to have multiple feet as opposed to two thin wagon wheels. The load would be distributed more evenly over a larger surface area. Increasing flotation over soft surface(to prevent miring)and potentially smoothing the ride (multiple points on the ground vs two points for wheels). Obviously it was technically feasible at the time.

    • @whoeveriam0iam14222
      @whoeveriam0iam14222 6 років тому

      it just wasn't invented yet. as this videos shows that they didn't use the better legs

  • @MusicFanatical1
    @MusicFanatical1 6 років тому +2

    Basically inventing a robot, with a horse as a power supply.

  • @juliusreiner5733
    @juliusreiner5733 6 років тому

    I would've liked to hear what the proposed improvement the cart with legs gives over a wheeled cart. Surely it's mentioned somewhere in the archive, or at least you can all conjecture. I'd guess Potter was thinking along the lines of related modern attempts, which is that they handle rugged and unpredictable terrain much better

    I know you avoid it sometimes, but I loved when the microphone picked up the sound of crinkling paper when Rupert turned the pages.

    "That's the question you're here to answer, not the question you're here to ask" Lol
    The Flintstones combined the legs and the wheels, but Theo Jansen's Strandbeest seems to be able to move quite well with just multiple legs and wind power.

  • @rfldss89

    is he actually gonna attempt to replicate it? I'd be happy to see that, even if it ends up not working :p

    When I heard cart with legs, my mind went the boring route. I pictured a tea cart with wheels on one end and table legs on the other.

    You know you can walk with wheels to but the results do not look like legs or wheels when you design a working model in a simple enough form to compete with wheels by themselves.
    I whent with a flywheel like wheel design. Couldn't find a good enough use for it outside of just sand terrain and soft snow. Shame really it looked like a centipede and had some good qualities but just to many break points. Same as the cart design.

    You don't have to zoom into peoples faces. It's just awkward. It's hard to predict the conversation, camera guy. So I just feel like a confused participant of the conversation. Otherwise the camerawork is great.
