Yes. This object is a wireframe 3D projection of a hypothetical 4D tesseract, Sean needs to get his facts straight (in a non-wireframe the cells that form the 'sides' are solids). Saying he "made a tesseract" is wrong in the same way as drawing a cube on paper and saying you created a cube would be.
The lab where i worked in Oxford (UK) had tritium fire escape signs because they worked with out power. One day some one stole two of them. This was classed as a radiation incident even though there was never any real danger causing the Safety Officer to fill in lots of forms. One sign was found dumped on a motor way many miles away, but I think the other was never found. Kind of amuzing that you can now buy tritium light sticks for fun projects.

Yes its all safe, until injected into your body. Pollonium and americium for example are also safe to handle, but deadly if injected. Your skin is enough to block their alpha radiation.
Are you aware that the tritium in those tubes is bathing you in soft x-rays from Bremsstrahlung radiation that you can only detect with scintillation counter? Speaking as somebody who usd to design Geiger and scintillation counters as well as scintillation spectrometers, I see idiocy like this and just think "Darwin in action". Genetic damage from radiation is a stochastic phenomenon and the only reason that tritium is allowed for use in safety signals is an arbitrary contrasting of received radiation vs. fire danger and typically these radiation sources are NOT NEAR people because they're in exit signs that people don't stay next to for extended periods. This is mind numbing stupidity.
Peter S way to out yourself as a fake ‘expert’. The beta radiation from tritium does not penetrate skin. The only time it can be dangerous to us is if it is inhaled, ingested or through direct skin contact (which touching these tubes is not considered direct). It is also used in a wide range of products that are designed for night use such as survival wristwatches (closer to the body than this tesseract cube), hunting rifle sights, survival glow sticks, etc. And when I say ‘survival’ I’m meaning the colloquial term for tramping and orienteering products. Not specifically for use in emergency survival situations.
Lucas Ryan is right. tritium has been used in many consumer products for near a century. @Peter S well as an electrical engineer I wouldn't expect you to know that the sun bathes you in more harmful radiation every day. personally, as a person who has to build and work on things engineers "design", saying you designed Geiger counters does not verify that you know anything about radiation or tritium. now I was just going to let SeanHodgins know you can "charge" the tritium with a bright light like holding it up to a light bulb and it will temporarily get brighter......then I saw this idiot post.
Same physical design, 8 LEDs pointing into transparent plastic sticks (glue gun sticks?), solar panels for the inner cube, a recharging circuit with light sensor and small lithium battery. Now I need to see if anyone makes small-ish square solar panels. The overall size is likely going to be determined by the solar panels and how small a battery will fit in there that also holds a decent charge.
Lithium battery would probably be the best via either wireless charging or charging through pads on the corners and an optional switch, capacitive or light sensor activation.
@@AmusementLabs Yes, I agree. Having looked at all the available solar panels I can find I think they would likely turn this into something ugly. A couple of tiny leads run out to one of the corners would not be very noticeable.
Call "NASA", (seriously)! You may be surprised at the outcome. Also, if it comes to fruition as far as a build. Check out the NASA work handbook "Free and online" for how to wire it safely. They have a bit of experience that nobody else does. And they did learn from it. And that handbook is way thorough...
@@Logically_Thinking Tritium is created by irradiating deuterium (not lithium or boron), this happens naturally in heavy water reactors. And since such reactor need to remove the tritium (so it doesn't build up too much), they might as well sell it.
Actally, a 2d square is bounded by four 1d lines, a 3d cube is bounded by six 2d squares, similarly a 4d tesseract is bounded by eight 3d cubes and a 5d thing should be bounded by 10 4d tesseracts.
needs more glow. that tesseract representation is meant to be a wireframe, so every edge needs to glow on the big and little cubes. Also, doped strontium aluminate / plastic extrusion would be way cheaper
Me: Stay focused don't waste hours on youtube because you see something shiny... Me upon seeing this thumbnail: god dammit sean hodgins alright whats this about
Ahh I’ve met the guy who made the many sided one. At electric forest and imagine festival multiple times. Super cool dood. They made a massive like 8 foot tall one of it as an installation at electric forest a few years back too. It was super cool.
It looks like you put the panels for the outside cube with the mirrored side facing out. In think they should have been mirror facing in. You want the interior of the cube reflecting what you see in the box to get the infinity effect.
We can see 2 real cubes inner and outer and 6 squashed cubes. In 4th dimension if we are able to visualize 4th dimension all this 6 cubes including first 2 will be real
The one I built is that same size. But I used (32) tritium filled tubes instead of the eight in this one! And I assembled it with an alternate color scheme between blue and green tritium tubes. Also, I used a "Dichroic" film of two types alternating those between "Black Orchid and Rainbow", on the 1/4-inch-thick acrylic plates, [plus a mirrored film on one side]. The frame was printed in white, which was then covered in a glo-powder suspended is clear epoxy. These are very easy to put together by the way. Too bad I cannot post a pic! Damned expensive though... But worth it for the jaw drops!
Tritium is a safe low level radioactive material. it is used in a number of self luminescent devices including watches, some telescope aiming devices, compasses, and more. It has a half life of approximately a decade meaning from the time the vial is made, in 10 years time it will be half as bright, in 20 years time it will be a quarter as bright.
Nicely done. I suspect the plastic two way mirrors are pretty poor compared to glass. Glass is harder to work with but you get deeper reflections and clearer views.
Really nice! The inner cube does not reflect anything, maybe if it was not perpendicular to the outer cube? Rotate it by a bit around all axes? also, maye something could be inside the cube in the center. an rfid/nfc tag, so the tesseract unlocks something. Or a strong magnet. Then you put the tesseract on a hall sensor, and turning it controls something like the volume on your computer.
Thanks! That is kind of the plan, but will need some more creative thinking. Not a lot of space, and needs to be able to be disassembled. Of course I want it to be small too.
Wow, this sounds like something straight out of a sci-fi movie! Can't believe we're actually making things like this. The future is now! Is it just me, or does 'Radioactive Tritium Tesseract Prototype' sound like the name of a secret project in a spy novel?
I wonder if you could fit watch battery's on the inner cube and then mount LED's that are in a small plastic tube (with the wire for them inside the tube as well) and then run that into the battery's on the inner cube
Shouldn't the trapezoidal planes also have partially silvered mirrors in place? Also if you could find a way to use clear plastic rather than black for the frame, the edges themselves "frame" could act as a conduit for light
Love your videos man, and that's a really interesting concept, especially using a relatively exotic material like tritium to light it, even if it's a bit dim. I'd love to see a v2. Off-topic, but where did you get your plastic drawers? I need something like that since I'm just getting into electronic engineering and need something to store all my components.

Is there a way just to buy the STL file as I own a printer myself
3 ปีที่แล้ว
what if you put the outer mirror on with the blue face out? in that case you can see more easily in and the inward facing mirrors reflect more green light inside
Nothing is able to make it past the glass/plastic of the vial. Then, if you break one open, there is such a tiny amount of tritium that you would likely not even detect a change on a dosimeter. You wouldn't want to get any in your lungs though.
its cool but not a hyper cube a hyper cube is a 4th dimensional cube and think of it as 2-3 instead 3-4 a 3d cube head on is a square but when u get a 3d perspective u can see all of the dimensions up back and side and a 2d square is just up/down and left/right so in a 4d object u would see the 4th meaning u could see all 6 sides of the cube not just infinite reflections
@SeanHodgins You should be careful working with Tritium. Tritium emits beta radiation, which when impacts the walls of the tritium containers emits secondary high energy x-ray radiation called Bremsstrahlung radiation.
Tritium is incredibly low energy and the amounts in these vials don’t even trigger a dosimeter when broken open. Have you ever sat in front of a CRT monitor? If so you’ve been blasting yourself with more high energy particles in a few minutes than one of these ever would over it’s lifetime.
@@SeanHodgins I have a dosimeter sensitive enough to pick up the x-rays from tritium vials. The issue is that the x-rays are not high enough energy to trigger gamma ray detection in most dosimeters. I will need to compare a tritium vial with a CRT if I get a chance; I currently have access to neither. The dosimeter that is sensitive enough to detect the x-rays from tritium vials is the RadiaScan-701 which is made in Russia. It costs about 300 USD to purchase from the manufacturer if you are interested in one.

i liked this video. great work but let me suggest a cheaper alternative to who would like to do this. i used glow in the dark solution...the good quality ones....and pen filters that was then sealed. cheaper and totally diy. thanks for this idea.
all sides should be mirrors and the edges should be LED lit it should give the effect of a tesseract but to reaally have it work you need the interior face to be flipt to show the exteriror ... so hard to explain in words cos i'm use to visualizing a process during REM sleep. man when humans crack euclidian space you're gonna see all sorts of technology based on quantum science.
If you move a tesseract in any of the 3 standard dimensions, it would look the same, so it would stay the same while you wiggle it around with your hand. Moving it along the 4th dimension would make it appear to shrink or grow, with the "inner" cube following behind it, so it would appear to turn inside out at some point (when the W of the hypercube is the viewer's W). Rotation along any standard axis would also work as normal, with rotation along the W axis causing it to appear to flex, like you are trying to turn a bicycle inner tube along its long axis (along the curve). Unless you have a very special hand, handling it would not change how it looks, outside of how you would expect any 3d solid to move
To "create a real life tesseract", you'll need a 4D printer.
i see what you did there and i approve =P
I think we already account for the 4th, by printing different parts in the same relative space, at different *times*

Moving it along the 4th dimension would make it appear to shrink or grow, with the "inner" cube following behind it, so it would appear to turn inside out at some point (when the W of the hypercube is the viewer's W). Rotation along any standard axis would also work as normal, with rotation along the W axis causing it to appear to flex, like you are trying to turn a bicycle inner tube along its long axis (along the curve). Unless you have a very special hand, handling it would not change how it looks, outside of how you would expect any 3d solid to move
