It's great to know we can always count on another anonimous genius expert behind a screen telling us what the engineers of a big high-tech company can't do. Thanx 👍🏻

@@SilencedFeelings Sweetie I also happen to work in robotics. This is not uncommon for people from the same field to check out what others are doing. I am not talking about what they can or cannot do, I am saying that they showed absolutely nothing. This video is more like a Kickstarter campaign promo than tech demo and one could wonder why exactly they don't want to show what they achieved. Even bragging about procedural ways to minimize the weight is industry standard for years now. It is not only not new. It is outdated.

​@@SilencedFeelings good thing you can hide behind personal attacks instead of addressing any of the arguments made. This video is stock footage, a bunch of "inspirational" quotes that say nothing, and shitty cgi slapped on top. I hope you're not getting paid to shill for this garbage, because you're doing a piss poor job of it lol

@@MapedMod I was also curious at the end of the video as to why the flight shots were so short, and after the buildup to rely so much on renders. I'm still impressed, but it did leave me wondering.....

@@MapedMod While I agree that this video is a pretty bad showcase, the bionic bee itself is extremely impressive and it works great. They showcased it live last week at Hannover Messe and I, as also the many other people visiting, can attest that it can in fact fly way longer than shown in the video (an engineer I talked to that worked on it said roughly ten minutes and at least 4 minutes were showcased live) and the movement is impressively controlled and stable. They flew four of them over the heads of a small crowed of people for five days and like eight times a day so it better be.

Why do you even compare the two?

@@pavulon5000 Oh yeah, why compare two companies that do bio-mimicry robotics and produce youtube videos. What's to compare? They have nothing in common...

@@cbbbbbbbbbbbbridiculous. compare what both companies do in terms of biomimicry and what is their core business.

@@pavulon5000 It's a video. The original comment was comparing this video, on this video sharing platform, with another video, on this video sharing platform, by a similar company, presenting similar "products." Comparison of their presentation is relevant and on topic.

@@cbbbbbbbbbbbb yeah okay

We create amazing tech just for it to be used for meaningless tasks

@@PVPnb all this was amazing and innovative maybe 20 years ago. A drone with a 5 minute battery life that barely flies is not innovative or amazing anymore. Ornithopters are not practical or efficient, imagine what just a 5 mph wind would do to that thing, it is just for show.

i KNOW RIGHT!!!

Wym?

@@user-nr7hb7vi6n watch black mirror, season 3 episode 6: “hated in the nation”

@@user-nr7hb7vi6nthey aren't fixing the problem they aren't even delaying the inevitable extinction of honey bee's instead just mimicking / replacing the insects instead of saving what already works they are polluting the air by creating plastic robots that in the end of their lifecycle will end up in landfills

In that example, they were as small as a real bee and included facial scanning so they could [SPOILER]. Here, the bee is a bit bigger and doesn't have facial scanning, but may have IR scanning like they do in the show. However, if everything I say comes true, it'll be quick to note that it's a bad idea. The episode is called "Hated In The Nation" if anyone's interested.

But there is an explanation as to how bees fly. It's due to how fast the wings oscillate. They displace more air for lift than most insects.

So go be a bee hmm.

@@nufSaid_ 😒

​@@zigma_visual5592🤓☝️

I saw the bee fly with my own eyes for several minutes at the Hannover Messe last week

Which works pwrfectly when its in its natural emviornment not in a fuckin zoo or lab. Creatures and the Enviornment are ONE. Something inefectual fools will never understand, damn Civilized minds never will.

Beecause the company name is Pesto.

Because in the future, the creation of bionic animals can be of many kinds, so that the name is more general and not so specific to just bees.

Impressive? It looks to be about same size as DJI mavic, but unstable, slow, weak, and can fly for only 4 minutes. But this first I've seen it, maybe it is way better than it looks.

wow, Festo shouldve filmed it

So where's the footage of that? Why are they not showing it?

what are you on

​@@raphaelcaldwell3831 History. You should try it it'd blow your mind.

Since when? Don’t think I’ve even HEARD of Festo until now!

Is that a joke.

Exactly! People need to WAKEUP & stop being so damn brainwashed & gullible! Those minions of Satan aren't for humanity! It's all a setup!

I mean the cool thing about this is that it's actually oscillating wings instead of spinning blades. As well, since it's so light it may have a few different possible uses. Not that I claim to know what those might be. I definitely would've preferred to see a more toned down video with more footage and possible uses rather than the overhyped marketing advertisement they put out.

People WAKEUP! They're not making this bee for fun. There's an hidden agenda behind it like all the other not good inventions they're creating. They're against humanity & are demonstrating it thru all that's happening in the world! People STOP being brainwashed and gullible! They need to be stopped & shutdown!! Why aren't they helping the poor & less fortunate? Why aren't they creating solutions to make the world better- hunger, poverty etc..Why aren't they using quality control to protect our foods, why are the creating robots that are replacing humans, why create an EV vehicle where the battery is over priced & not a good source for transportation? People ASK questions, take action & spread awareness! Don't trust ANY of their inventions- it's not to protect us!!!

4 minutes as per the datasheet.

@@JamesNewton Like nature.

an ornithopter will never carry a lot of weight. this type of design can barely carry it's own weight, and only works at a small scale and very small cube wing loading. Or cube arc loading in the case of a VTOL ornithopter. Festo makes only bio inspired designs, which have many uses which are almost all not blowing stuff up.

The buoyancy in that scale wouldn't be able to lift the container that would hold the gas and it would add drag to the whole contraption.

Because you need pumps for pneumatics which are very heavy and power hungry.

On god like wtf😂

It flies around.

take 5 cents and buy a life.... Maybe you feel very important because you think a video has been deleted for your hate-filled opinions without having any idea of the goal of Festo Bionics...They do not intend to manufacture any commercial product, nor prove anything to anyone. They have a budget to design a "robotic" animal every year, and they just do it. Some are more spectacular than others, but there is no purpose behind it other than to do some marketing and create cool things to make some videos, take them to 4 fairs and 4 TV shows. Live and let others live, if you don't like the videos, pass them, or even block them, it's that simple.

@@robertoalonso3484 I must have really hit a nerve here. Do you see my comment as hate? Because I see it as criticism. The reason people are criticizing in the first place is not because we hate, the very opposite, we love and anticipate. We comment because we care, because we have watched your videos in the past and have been amazed. And the bee is great... but the presentation is RIDICLOUS! Dont you see that? It would help to reflect and learn from it instead of getting offended. "if you dont like the videos, pass them" not sure if you are asking me to shut up, but if you dont want feedback you can turn off the comment section. /shrug.
