Over the last several months, I've been building my own version of the classic toy Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em Robots. Because I like to overcomplicate and overengineer everything I do, I decided to make mine life-size and controlled by pneumatic cylinders connected to an air compressor. I invited my friend Will over because this game requires two people to play. Before we can have our fighting robot face-off, there are a few things that I need to finish first.

If you're like me you have creative ideas and sometimes they get trapped inside your mind. Here on Byte Sized Engineering I make project videos that get you excited about unleashing your inner maker and making those creative ideas a reality!
You shouldn’t need an engineering degree to make your ideas a reality. I suffered through years of engineering school so you don’t have to. I know how it feels to want to make something I’m excited and passionate about, but also feel overwhelmed by not knowing where to start. I’ve unlocked the secret to getting past this feeling of being stuck. In my videos I show you how to take complex problems and break them down into smaller, more manageable “byte sized” pieces.

Great build however I feel I must address the giant elephant in the room that the Robots dont really make contact with each other which to me is a great disservice to the game. My suggestion would be to design the fists to have some sort of "springyness" in them so when they make contact you're not damaging any components. You could also design the chest piece to have some give to absorb the impacts and make it much more realistic to the original toys. I would also make it so the robots can rotate slightly and slide back and forth slightly just to give the user more "control" of the robot fight.

I agree. Bumping fists is not what the game was about. It is totally cool what you have done so far, but if you could make some changes so the fists can hit the other robot's chest or better yet the head like in the real game that would be fantastic. Thank you for sharing this project with us.

Agreed, I thought I was missing something and forgot what the original game looked like... Hopefully this can be corrected in the next iterations. (I noticed the led colors went to the wrong robot too, and this seems to have changed by the time he tested lol)

You should put them on moving platforms that would allow you to also slide backward and forward to dodge attacks

This could be a great project to show at OpenSauce

I agree with others. The lack of real "Punch" undercuts the experience. Also In the Game they move. So you can move your guy in and out of range. Its also the heads that you are trying to hit. Not count body shots. I think put the IMU in the heads and change you 4 bar linkages so they strike towards the faces. Then put them on linear rails (Most likely double v wheels will be good enough) so you can move them in and out of range. also allow some torso swivels so you can aim the hits better. I know it took a lot to get to this point and They look awesome but could use some refinements and tweaks.
