How long is your arm? 💪

And congratulations for getting nominated for Unity Awards ❤️

I still believe you’re underrated with how much editing and funny moments you do

Make Glados OUT OF that arm

As someone who is still relatively new to the field mechatronics, here's some tips that may help from my testing with very cheap materials and supplies (we're talking cardboard and SG90 servos since i'm a high school student) * You could use an extended kalman filter for state estimation for the motors. Sometimes, for cheaper motors or if you use gears (not sprockets/chains), occasionally it can "skip" and give you a slightly incorrect value, a kalman gain function could fix this. Bang-bang filters are also an option if an eKF is too hard * You could use a cheap webcam (or your current one) and use OpenCV with a morphological image processing algorithm or blob detection for objects. Blob detection is terrible in different lightning conditions, and if you wanted to do fast processing, a truncated SVD would be good to use for pre-processing in conjunction with a MIP * A PD/PID controller would be good to move to a position. It's a little more complex than what you have, but it's incredibly useful and has that "easing" motion you're aiming for, specifically with a PID controller. However, a PD controller is better for quick and less precise movements (in my opinion) * A Stewart platform would be interesting to use for the base, if you wanted angular motion, as well (although definitely not needed, would almost be redundant) edit: The field of inverse kinematics is also worth looking into, but from what I saw with the computer renders, it looks like you have something similar going on

I like how you handled those tomatoes

Very interesting all the skills needed to make this: math, physics, 3d modeling, 3d animation, unity c#, raspberry pi with python, html, css, javascript, web server, electronics, cutting metal, and much more! liked and subbed, amazing channel :)

I cant even Start to imagine how much work this Video was. 100-200+ hours easily. Congrats, you convinced me to subscribe with just one Video. This is awesome!

You should add a piston just before the rotating end bit, so you can extend the arm to reach around the room without it taking up a ton of space

The quality on this video is top notch. Love the animations and how everything flows together

This is awesome dude!!

I am impressed by both your engineering skills and video editing skills, great job bro!

As a developer who has tried to wrangle servos to do what I want, I appreciate all the work you put into this. Earned my subscription 😊

if you like this video, you're not the only one! I got nominated for both "best devlog" and "entertainment value" on the Unity Awards! Go vote here: awards.unity.com

This channel is beginning to turn into an engineering channel and frankly, I don't hate it. Keep it up Jelle! I love seeing all the cool stuff you create :D

Love it! First time seeing your videos, like your style

Mate, this is what I call talent! The editing is amazing 😄

This is legitimately the coolest channel. Amazing job (as always) Jelle! 🍻

I've been wanting to do something like this since I first saw Portal. Planning to build a small-scale GLaDOS to act as a smart home hub, and to have other useful features, like a tracking light source, Kinect camera for scanning, speakers, and room for expandability. It's hard finding the time though to dedicate to a project like that, but hopefully someday.

Fantastic video! Love the humor, creativity and production quality, keep it up!

Amazing project Jelle - so cool!

Dude this video is awesome! Just found you in my recommendations and you’ve definitely got a new subscriber! I can only imagine how much time went into making this! Keep going!

Great projects, I would suggest adding code to manually set a position/ positions and have it as a preset. so you could just press a button for example when you want the arm to lower itself to add an attachment, or position itself for a selfie, or do a panoramic swipe, etc. really cool project :)!

Fantastic project and great sense of humor! Thanks for making an inspiring video!

This was fun to watch! and thank you for the explanations, I enjoyed learning how it was made :D

You're a LEGEND! Thanks for this epic Adventure. Good luck for the Unity award thingy!

These videos are incredible I hope your channel keeps growning.

This is absolutely amazing, the amount of skills and talents needed to do this is very inspiring and impressive!

Thank you for this Jelle, I had a blast watching :)

Jelle: Updates Me: Smashes like Me: starts the video You're very underrated for the amount of work put into this! Nice vid!

I’m 7 minutes into your video and I just wanted to say that this is the highest quality video I have watched in a long time. I love the creative energy from this and I can’t wait to see the arm in action! Keep being awesome B]

Very underrated! Great work my friend. You deserve at least 1m subs for this quality.

Subscribed and liked! I really appreciate the work you’re putting into these videos!

The humour, the smooth transitions, the intricate engineering, someone get this guy the recognition he deserves!

Subbed! Really high quality and fun to watch!

Love how you go into more detail and keep viewers following along the project. Definite sub from here

this is really cool! you should probably have used stepper motors for the arm joints tho, as i dont think servos are very strong (hence the slightly jittery motion)

Dude, I was just thinking about getting/making one of these! xD ...Except I couldn't actually think of any uses for it, so I was procrastinating. But now that I see how effective the boxing glove attachment can be at eliminating those pesky greek temples that keep popping up around my room, I think I'll have to get cracking! Thanks for the entertainment and inspiration. :)

You’re creativity never fails! Keep up the great work!

This is insane! Extremely well done Jelle!

You're such a great guy who knows how to hide the pain behind these projects and show us only the fun part..

Love these videos ! Very creative and underated!

Can't wait to watch more of your videos! This is my first one and I've subscribed!

Amazing video and project! Huge respect to build something like this! I am actually also building a robot arm and I really like your's. Can I find the code somewhere (would be really cool)?

You’re creativity never fails! Keep up the great work! If you’re looking for ideas, maybe look into AI video recognition? You could make your arm shoot balls at intruders 😝

that's so cool!, keep up the good and hard work jelle!

The production level in this is off the chart. Even forgetting about the content, which is great in itself. You just gained a subscriber.

now this is entertainment at its best loved your video glad i stumbled on it

WOW! The skill! The content is wonderful, the jokes are well ... pun-chy and the editing is *chef's kiss*!

I have always dreamed of building my own little robot arm but I know whatever I could come up with wouldn't even be half as good as this and any commercial solution would probably break the bank for how much I would use it. You did a fantastic job, great video.

This was a great watch, good content. You're inspirational!

Dude, your videos are actually great. I would have though you had millions of subscribers! I am sure you will grow very fast.

“Wait no thats the kitchen book!” That part really got me lol. keep uploading!

Oh these videos are hilarious and amazing.

Wow that's a crazy amount of editing, animation, and all that on top of the control engineering, mechanical engineering, and electrical engineering! Well done! Ive been thinking of making one of these myself and you gave a lot of great ideas (slip rings!)

this was amazing. your super talented and smart as hell bruhh

First time seeing your Channel, and I absolutely love it

Man you are so talented and funny. Keep going, you will get what you deserve !!

I watched in 1 week all your videos :) I can't wait for the next video

This is the first video I have seen from your channel and I love it. Subscribed

Awsome vids! Leuk om iemand tezien uit de BeNeLux met dit soort content! Mijn sub heb je meer dan verdiend!

The video was os entertaining! Kudos mate!

LOVED the video! You got a new sub

i think this is awesome work man. Keep up the good work

Bro your editing skills are phenomenal. So very entertaining

Amazing video-making skills there. I really liked the idea of having a personal robot arm in my room.

This video just became one of my favorites videos on yt, everything is just sooo goood

I am so in love with your channel 😍 I appreciate all the work you are putting into your videos

El primer video que veo tuyo y me he quedado flipando. En serio, impresionante. No se como no tienes 200 veces más suscriptores... Me ha encantado. Saludos desde España!

Oh my GOD What a Quality Level!! Bravo!

Love the editing

This was a fun video to watch, I really enjoyed to design process!

if you walk into someone room and they have a mechanical arm on the ceiling you know that person is big brain

Pretty cool!!! One thing you can do is that...make the arm with the camera attached follow your face like a cameraman(like they do in tech events), it would be really cool.

Broooooo This was awesome, Instant sub

Now I want a robot arm in my room... Thanks for the amazing video as usual, always an inspiration to watch your content :)

Loved your video!

Hey, heads up, the thing Jelle forgot when the Skyrim text said "Jelle fogot it." is when the Skyrim text said "Jelle will remember that;" what he remembered, or rather forgot, was to not make the arm clip through the ceiling.

Can I just say… 3D printing is a gift from the gods.

Bro you are hella underrated! the quality of these videos is sublime

Robots are awsome and you're also awesome for sharing this with the rest of the world.

Got this Video recommended on my main page and I must say I am very impressed! Loved all the jokes and the overall editing. I have no idea of engineering but the video is great!

Dude this video alone will make your channel go viral. Great stuff

I was really impressed with the ability to pour a drink, and then it punched the cup off the box and my reaction was “Ah yep, that sounds about right.”

you should do something like when you ask the robot for something it will search your room, (probably making it a mess in the process) and then after finding the object you want it will give it to you, like siri!

Amazing video editing and great use of ar

I loved seeing from the beginning to end thank you for sharing

I love your iterative design technique 😍 👌 ❤️

Robot on the loose! Great video!

This is Crazy!!! your are a genius!!!

This is amazing and also a PSA on the importance of emergency stop buttons. Very cool.

This is great, hope I can learn from your lessons!

That cliff hanger at the end is keeping me on my toes man

I really like technique and construction so it was really interesting to see in what kind of problems you run. Also your way of explaining stuff was really humerous too, in combination with your accent really funny, like the mix.👍

literally one of the small amount of creators who actually do cool stuff, keep going dude!

What a great job you did !

Yooooo you so underrated bru. Nice video tho, enjoyed a lot

If only I was this smart, amazing!

This is so cool!!! And very similar to a project I've had on the back burner for some time now (shhh don't tell)

This looks much like the UR5e! Good Job!
