- How to Make Mechanical 7 Segment Display from Cardboard
In today's video I want to show you 7 segment display with unique machenism that is our own invention. There are 7 circles inside. Each circle has it's own trigger that read circle program and responds for opening/closing specific segment. Full assembly instructions are includede in the video!
Materials you need: cardbaord, paper, rubber bands, springs and popsicle sticks. Enjoy :)

The amount of engineering in something so simple is so mind boggling...
My eyes: I got it.
My hands: no you don’t
Opokui
If you try again and again you can do it
I've always said, you learn with your hands. One only thinks they learn with their eyes.
Hahahahaha 😂
Your brain : think twice before do it
You should have painted the box black so the yellow stands out better!
Literally the first thought that came to my mind
Exactly!)
Agreed
Base coat of white paint on the digits prior to the yellow paint would have made it pop even more, too... But whatever. The darned thing works like it was designed to, and the technical ingenuity of some people never fails to impress me.
true
*time taken*
For making : 30 minutes
For understanding how to use : 30 days
For breaking : 1 second
@@taufikyt2711 haha😉 more than correct
bruh its a fucking *dial*
No it's 30 years
Don't forget the days of editing.
Brilliant - where was this idea when I was a kid in the 70's - before I got into electronics - I would have built two these and used them to score table tennis. Love it!.
Everybody just watch but nobody makes it....
CrazyF India Lol Lol LoL , you spoke just the truth
I make some of his stuff, but this is next level hard to make useless
tis it's clear that hard , he don't know explain right , sorry Friend if you don't understand me , I am Brasilian and I don't know to speak much in English
CrazyF India its interesting and could be satisfying sometimes nonetheless
@@bloodyclass2496 yes , I thought very interesting , but he should explain better
The guy made a carnaught map of the display digit using a mecanical system. Wonderful!!

Genius

The end result was satisfying. :)
Yeah, but the process is exhausting
Randomly viewed most scientifically satisfying video.. Very superb work... Shown complex in simple
The presentation of a digital application with purely analog methods is philosophical gold. Can't praise this enough...
Can you do cardboard calculator ?
xD

lol wat happened to you XD
I wouldn't be surprised if you make a computer out of cardboard 😂 amazing craft tho (as always)
It is possible, he couldn't make anything nearly as powerful as modern computers but early computers were made for calculations and various mathematical problems..
He could also make a small storage that could store text ( something that can be done in minecraft )
Not possible... It will require a big hall to just perform basic operations. (And with errors)
it would be stupid and a waste of time, early computers were big and made of better materials
How does it listens event of time
If your left hand is fighting with your right, do the normal thing and make a mechanical 7 segment display 😂😂
But on a real note great video👏👏

agreed
This shows why people who do the work deserve the proper reward ... I will never waste my time creating this ... Congratulations to those who dedicate themselves to this
First minute and a half: Ok, cool... this is doable.
Every second after that: daaaannnnnggggg!
It works great for small crowds. For bigger crowds, you need make minor adjustments so some of the segments flip much further. This makes it more legible at different viewing angles

When you are still a kid
Don't you just hate it when your hand becomes sentient and steals your pencil?
angpug1 and dont you love it when it decides to help you with a project 1 second after stealing your pencil
man i thought that only happened to me
It can happen if you have to have your corpus callosum split. Kinda crazy.
it always happens to me :(((
Finally someone understands.
Wow...se easy....😂😂❤❤
I love how he cuts cardboard with a power tool!
This is one of the coolest DYIs I've ever seen. Got excited to make it until you got to the spokes and protractor stage. I would need more specific directions there. Well done, though!
That was crazy genius 😲
Hi
Yes
this is how the old scoreboards in Little League used to work.
My old School still have them on one of the Field :)
I expected some usual BS I see everywhere on youtube but this was amazing. Thank you.
This is why imagination is the key to success. Studying is only a 3rd of that.
Toppers are never successfull
@@aryangoel4842 if only there's a teacher out there who truly understands the power of imagination. Only a fraction would exist in this world.
*Now make a working flight arrival and departure chart from cardboard*
Make 4 buy a arduino or a raspberry pi and make a clock to impress your guest
@@MichaelPerez-ol3dg to make it even more impressive you could do that without any electronics, using an analogue clock to turn the lest significant digit once a second and gearing to turn the next digit once every 10 seconds etc
You're a genius, man.
This could be the prototype to do a cardboard clock.
A digital clock probably wouldn't be too difficult to makе, all it would take is combining several of these, and linking them with different-sized gears or something
Why?
Why am I watching this I should be doing something productive...
Like making a 7 segment display from cardboard o.O
Sydney York very very nice
I should be doing homework
Awesome work👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Documentation makes the process look so peaceful👌👌.
Its like those stupid 5 minute craft channels, but the things made here are actuall cool as hell.
Now I know what I can do in my spare time this weekend.
We were reading about 7 segment decoder in digital electronics but according to this video we should read this on mechanical engineering ...
See 3:32 it's the state table which is used in electronic. 3:34 onwards is the technique to convert that table to mechanical output
This guy is the king of crafts.
much complicated/difficult but talented............................ appreciation
Even if the original idea is old ; but you are creative in applying it .
So ,
Bravo Bravo👏👏👍
I should put this on my bucket list.
Me: why should I watch it?
My brain: just watch it...
You sir or ma'am or other are a genius.
Hard to understand and Hard to build, So it's awesome.
IMPRESSIVE, this complimente is not enough to escribe this piece of work!
This is too much for my mind
,,
It is hard before you start to make it , but after you feel you can make . Just start.
Indeed, it’s sooo hard
@@Lostinlifeiam just try )))
@@CardboardExpert hehe u try first
Making a mechanical 7 segment display 🤔
the world has come full circle now
Graet idea . Great creation 👍👏👌 . Every body try to make .

This Guy is truely a "Genius"!!
Outstanding design! Another person I want on my team during (& after) the Zombie Apocalypse!
Made four of these identically and used them at son's local soccer game but lost score just before full time when it rained - bugger ! - thanks for the great video - You have a new subscriber from Down Under:)
Is this a joke 😂😂
Sarcasm 101: don't let them know it's sarcasm.

"ah.... there you go."
18 century technolodgy! But PERFECT!😃😃👍👍
Your creativity and thinking ability is Genius...!!!
Now he's gotta incorporate a mechanical boxing glove that punches you if miss your wake up alarm lol. ⏰
WOW! IBM go home. This is very clever and crafty.
This is so cool! I was tracking up until the varying circle sizes. I don’t think my brain could ever properly calculate or produce the right shape to make the numbers do what I want.
Omg, this is the coolest thing i have seen on UA-cam.

Spent 6mins knowing
1. I only have glue gun
2. I have pencil
3. I can't do this.
4. 😂
You have ZERO knives? You have NO cardboard? Pathetic.

شكرا لكم جميعا لخلق
Спасибо всем за создание
Thank you to all of you who created it
this should be used for days.
imagine using it for knowing the time, every minute u will have to fix.
Quite nice the mechanics behind
ingenious man. awesome combination of mechanical and digital technology.
凄く面白かったです！
よくこんなの考えられるなあ１
Прикольный монтаж видео!
Second video without Cola . Greetings from germany! :-)
You are such a creative guy. MIND BLOWING 👍🏻👍🏻
I don't understand why there are so many 'thumbs down', this is brilliant work! It's hard enough to make a mechanism out of cardboard, but regardless, this is a clever design.
As usual u r a UTUBE LEGEND
If you wanted to make it more complex, you could implement a 16 segment display and then you can do letters too.
It's not more complex in terms of design. Just more
Congratulations on the Brother project!!👍😉✌
@Yo Mama and only one mode of expression "brother"

Wow great artist ...great engineer .
He: Make a perfect line with ruler.
Me: Make a line diagonally with his ruler.
Tuyệt vời.
@lautaro velazquez From Vietnamese to English, that means great
Watching at 1.25x speed. I like the music lol
He's got a logically valid point for making this
Insanely creative
This is engineered and built by the nerd we made fun of in school .
Looks who’s laughing now.......
@Rrishabb01 It is first step of processor in your smart phone that you are using in your Day to Day life.
@Rrishabb01 All science seems to be useless at first. Are you an art student?
... As the saying goes - he who laughs last, laughs the longest! 😉 😉 😉
Екрана
you're just a dickhead for laughing at them, can't relate. you enjoy upon the pain of others and are nothing more than a petty sadist
I can only imagine this guys room full of cardboard lol
Now make 3 more and sync them to be a clock (or timer that counts down) no electronics
depending on how hard the turning mechanism is, it wouldnt be super hard to use an arduino with a few stepper motors....
If you'd be using an Arduino, what's the point then :D
it is possible by using a winding mechanism, but it would give a few problems.
The main issue would be that cardboard wouldn't be strong enough to support the loaded spring, so you'd need to make it out of wood (to keep the theme) or resin.
Metal would be out of the question if you want to keep the rest cardboard, since it would weigh too much and thus slowly break the mechanism down by disforming the cardboard.
A second problem would be the winding mechanism itself, which (unless you craft and tune its radars and springs entirely by hand with the right tools and knowledge) would give a few seconds to few minutes delay in every hour.
Still, if time accuracy isn't a problem, then it is definitely possible. It would be quite a bulky project however.
You have a great talent of making
Perfect for a mecanical clock!
My head- easy
My eyes- so easy

You are very big brain I wish I was that talented
Механизм безусловно интересный,но вряд ли это придумка автора канала.

@@laurensteunen7634 размышления вслух!
Mechanical engineering project for finishing up college?
How long did the entire research, planing, designing, and building took? And did you get help by looking similar design projects?🤔
What if you made a frame that is as deep as the number-segments' width and place it around the display area. This will hide the yellow part of a number shop that people from all sides can read it.
I added an entire recession on my model that has black light reactive yellow paint.
Thanks for the tutorial!
Ngl this was actually pretty cool
Extraordinary, fantastic, mind blowing
00:10 Wow a squizofr-hand

Legal de se ver, fico maravilhado com a engenhosidade. Mas quando penso em fazer igual, me dá calafrios!
E não é...pensei até que seria mais simples, mas é muito complexo...
0:11Someone know what happend
no idea lol
Why people put dislike ?, I liked this creation. I worked with electric 7 segments display. Love you video friend.
Bohat hard bhai
