Watching a cube jump suddenly onto a corner and balance there indefinitely is jarring at first. Cubli can do just that! Doc North investigates Raffaello D'Andrea's lab at the Institute for Dynamic Systems and Control at ETH Zurich, Switzerland where this robotic advance was developed, and ponders the implications.
In The Making takes you behind the scenes of spectacular projects, people, and ideas while they are being created. Doc North travels the world to give viewers an inspirational look into what it takes to make scientific breakthroughs, create companies, and invent the future. Follow North to catch the next big thing while it's still IN THE MAKING.

To jump from a balancing robot to the "End Of Humans" is an illogical leap. Unlike the cubli's leap- which is entirely logical! I'm so grateful that you had Gaja explain the brakes. I want to build something like this, but had no indication there were brakes involved.

Everyone knows balancing cubes are the first step toward Skynet.

Subbed!! Missed you from Prototype This days!!!

@jjab99 10 лет назад

That was really cool and very surprising what can be done by this small robot.

@oriole8789 10 лет назад

Using braking torque as a form of stored energy to instantly rotate the cube is pretty clever.. :D I bet you could integrate this concept into many unrelated devices.. brake wear being the only potential issue but it could be solved on a case by case basis.. thanks for posting!

Definitely a better humanity. Although there will be massive growing pains. Once technology hits a point where most, if not all our needs are met from independent machines, we can begin to truly thrive as a species and pursue enlightenment.

In other words, eventually we will all become a bunch of lazy fucks, :P

@Jogeta5 10 лет назад

Yeah, a Resource Based Economy.

@MarkShaneHansen 9 лет назад

DarkYogurt We're already lazy fucks, we'll just be able to be who we really are. But more seriously, just because we won't have to do all the same jobs anymore, doesn't mean we'll all be lazy. Lazy means unwilling to use energy. In this possible scenario of a future where we have machines doing all our work, we'll either use our energy elsewhere (hobbies for example), or there's simply nothing to do because machines are doing everything (which means we're unable, not unwilling).

The correct sized version of this inside of a shell that looks like the Hellraiser puzzle box would be awesome.

@WLDLNG 6 лет назад

Can someone explain what provides the force for it to stand on one corner? I don't get it.

finally, the companion cube will be able to MOVE!!!!

I was so amazed the cubbies cube I decided to buy one for my son. I finally received it but it only has directions in Chinese. Can anyone help me with directions on how to program it? I have connected the usb to my laptop but don’t know what drivers and programming interface I need to install.

@brendanparke 9 лет назад

Actually this would likely be used for stabilizing satellites in orbit. It behaves just like the CMG's on satellites do.

@thomasnorthen4244 10 лет назад

Fantastic, a stabilizer back pack for people who need walkers now?

I love the comment below "It's just a great demonstration of Physics really. Nothing good or bad about it really, just creativity in a more sophisticated manner.". This is commonly heard at nearly any new revolutionary idea, the computer, telephone, GPS, texting instead of calling, microwave ovens, phased array radio transmission,...How embarrassing! How about kinetic energy weapon steering satellite to satellite. automated docking ISS to Space X dragon capsule. precision orientation self guiding "floating hand tools" for manufacturing, 360 degree auto-sentry gun aiming system. Some of these are scary but obvious options. Any rapid tracking and precision orientation application, Awesome.

Das ist derselbe Prinzip und sehr ähnlich mit eine anderen Erfindung aus dem Jahr 1998 - Deutschland (sehen Sie im DPMA Patentdatenbank nach: DE000029812449U1 - Antikippkraftvorrichtung mit Antilenkträgheitssystem für Fahrzeuge und Anhänger aller Art). Damals wurde diese als Kipp-Schutz-Vorrichtung für Fahrzeuge ausgedacht.

@solosailor222 4 года назад

Yes, scanning old patents and modernizing the presentation is becoming too common.

@londonnight937 3 года назад

What motor model is used?

@danielsetzer3766 4 года назад

so where are the 4 episodes?

@DominoSixO 7 лет назад

When you reinvent the wheel and everyone loses their minds, but that has been used in satellites over many years.

any idea how to do the one dimensional cubli "babies". kinda need help.

@pedestal7studios 9 лет назад

They should try building a ball around it.

@johnromeobernabat7837 10 лет назад

I think if we improve this technology we are not that far in having star shaped homes or cars. Inverted Eiffel tower will be a norm.

@Debraj1978 Год назад

2:47 = End of humanity? Can this not be used on Segway, or self balaning cycles or prosthetics for someone? End of the video was trashy.

@SCOTTSTALLARDBERMUDA 10 лет назад

How about filming MORE of the actual subject (the balancing cube) and a little less of the talking man. Play his dialogue over cube footage maybe? This footage needs to be not only informative but entertaining and talking heads are rarely that! Focus on the subject cube since that's what it was all about to begin with.
