Will the idex style hotbeds be able to use this? Specifically I am talking about where they use the 4 corners and individually adjust them to change the angle of the bed. Rn they only use it for bed leveling, but this software could enable a lot for these printers, right?
This could be very useful for printing stronger prosthetics while still keeping the easily adjustable and fast method of FDM printers. Very cool to look into
Very cool! Are there plans to streamline the algorithm for third party tool usage? Doing so would allow it to separate itself from current non-planar slicers in the sense that they are "gimmick" tools. Also, are there plans to open source or source available the project?
Because today everything has to be Neural something even though it makes no sense. Well sounds less like Neural Network is that much important here but yeh funding these days..
Reason: We employ NN to represent meshfree continuous functions for deformation so that can borrow the computational power of the modern machine learning pipeline such as the robust stochastic gradient solver and parallel computing to solve this highly nonlinear problem in a way much better than our earlier approach in S^3-slicer (video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qNm1ierKuUk.html).
very interesting! Also not said here, you are managing two tools on two 6 axis robots operating at the same time with no crashing. And (is my guess) no manual programming. The work here is the future of this technology, the advanatages are too great to be ignored. Just imagine CFR-PEEK parts with this method.
Idk how much changing the matrix material would help if the breaking point is the fiber itself. This work means that you wouldn't need to use super expensive materials for a lot of applications that previously required them.
@@JasminUwU Firstw the update on this research: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LF1fRD7ygdE.htmlsi=9tmVfZ604QEhpyMU Second, material science student here : Composites aren't just limited by the strength of the fibers, there are formulas tying the rigidity of those materials with orientation of the load (those materials are anysotropic, meaning their resistance isn't equal in all direction), the ratio of matrix to fiber by volume, the rigidity of the fiber and the rigidity of the matrix. That is why we use epoxy in high end carbon fiber composites, but sometimes use metals or even basalt depending on the requirements. Here changing the polymer matrix could increase rigidity (this a straight up guess, so i can and will be quite wrong in my estimate) by 10% or more since this composite has a low fibers by volume ratio, increasing the importance of the matrix's nature. Though you are right by saying we could get better materials for cheaper at the low price end.
Casually enables the manufacturing of optimised anisotropic materials (mainly 3d printed thermoplastics and thermopalstis high aspect ratio composites). Needless to say this has a lot more potential than what's shown in this presentation...
It’s a very interesting job. As an architect, I’m interested in the curve that the robotic arm can make in the direction of load vectors in construction and architecture. Those are important points for better mastering the quality and manufacturing costs. There is a lot of potential in your work. Thx to share your work.
Wild how well it handles contours. But a touching sensor? I can't understand that application. Designer dresses for daughters of overbearing parents w/ trust issues? A niche market in the US but maybe not Saudi Arabia, China... Gross
Remarkable. It could potentially be applied in the manufacturing of carbon and fiberglass components, with the capability to integrate electronic parts into the weave.

Absolutely fascinating!! Intrigued by the touch detection application you showed off. The Nerd in me wants this to be used to create a multi point haptic feedback device for Vr...
Hi guys. I just watched your new "3D weaving" video, it's excellent and I can see the potential in carbon fiber formation at least. My reason for commenting is that you made your video "Made for Kids" and that does a couple of things that you may not have intended: 1) You can't bookmark the video [intended to stop video suggestion for kids] and 2) you can't comment. It was #1 that got me BTW. Thanks
Great work. I definitely think soft robotics is going to be a huge leader for robotics. Thank you for making it open source. Reminds me of a Disney animation I saw for modeling their automatons.
