Of course. It wasn't enough to create a small soft bodied robot. They also had to power it with half strength rocket fuel.
that threw me off when i first saw it too
And platinum
@@Cerco170 Nothing says mad science like powering your squishy synthetic life forms with rocket fuel and rare metals.
@@dr.velious5411 i heard that quantum battery had infinite amount of energy that can use forever.
Imagine what we can do with this mini bot
@@suprisebuttsecksspy5958 Energy has mass. If something contained infinite energy, it would have infinite mass, and anything with infinite mass would instantly collapse into a black hole of infinite size.
It's aliveeeeeeeeeeeee.....
Then it ate all the fish in the fridge .-)
:-)
fixed your eye for you
actually crab is octopus food
you've watched too much life of luxury
Fuck you
@@mackdunna you too.
Song is Haunted by Birocratic if anyone was lookin for it.
thanks man, this song is great
Meow.

Woof
:awesome:
Just a lot of random noise = irritating too.
Imagine a giant octopus with artificial intelligence giving gentle hugs with puffy soft tentacles.
no
@@Ensource Don't worry, I'm referring to more wholesome tentacle hugs.
@@nak8490 right...
Gentle hugs with puffy soft tentacles filled with probably toxic rocket fuel gases
Thats so wholesome, but theres some *ahem* other meaning to it if you look at it different 👀
alright, now we will have creepy bots walking all over
So true, verified man
it's a small step now, but it could lead to snuggly anime maid bots
Imagine being scared of robots
They had to give it 8 legs.
Yea in the future
I guess this is one of those videos where they show a cool invention, and we never see it ever again.
Yep. Very early proof of concept.
"Oh, the creator commited suicide with 19 shots on the head, anyways..."
Thus humanity has achieved another milestone on the road of making real life T-1000.
Imagine a creature like this being usable to explore nooks and passageways in our houses. They could expose pest infestations, reveal rotten wood, and scout out for home improvement opportunities.
And you could look at cool bugs and shit
@@greateagle8799 I'm too uncool to curse (and enjoy it), but it'd be impressive to see non-pestilent creatures as well, yes.
@@ryarod not cursing isn't uncool, just different slang
They are making a proctoscope too
You might want to check out veritasiums new video
Baymax: On the scale of 1 to 10, how do you rate your pain?
Also...
Baymax: Excuse me while I let out some air.
Yay that's means Baymax will be here soon maybe a decade or so
He had a hard skeleton
Baymax already exists, he was based off of real tech, he is just an inflatable shell around a normal robot skeleton, this is made apparent by both the scene where he is deflated in the movie and multiple scenes in the tv show where his shell is completely removed, it is also mentioned in the behind the scenes. There is even a video online of one of the people who pioneered the inflatable robot tech reacting to parts of the movie.
I bet we could make a Baymax with our tech. He’s basically a metal robot with an inflatable outside right? The main thing about this that’s impressive is the manufacturing technique and the scale.
@@Omlet221 again, like I said, although nothing on the complexity of baymax has been made, it would essentially just be wrapping a balloon around boston dynamic's atlas, so completely possible
That's Cool and All, but Gru is the most powerful being in the universe. First, according to the height of a Minion (which is 3.5 feet on average) Gru is 4 minions tall, which means he is a godly size of 14 feet tall. Second if any of you remember the original Despicable Me, you Know there is a scene when Vector kidnaps the three girls and shoots a series of heat seeking misses at Gru, he then dodge them all. According to the speed of an average ballistic missile (1900 mph) and the size of the missile according to his ankle size, Gru can perceive and move at such a speed that the missiles only move 9.5 miles per hour, 0.5% of their original speed. Plus after this Gru punches a shark and it is paralyzed meaning its spine is probably shattered, to remind you it would require a force greater than 3,000 newtons to fracture the spine. That's equal to the impact created by a 500-pound car crashing into a wall at 30 miles per hour.
Oh boy oh boy, the beginnings of robot waifu.
😂😂😂😂
Sad that I came to the comments to see if anyone was thinking the same thing I was 😂😂😂
This is cursed. You are cursed. Why did you choose to curse us all.
Tentacles
Gorilla grip🥵🥵🥵
When I saw the molds I was like " hail hydra "
This video is excellent, but it was many months ago. Any updates to soft robotics? I mean functional robots, not just "Hey I invented a new squishy fabric!". The robot in this video is what I call immense potential.
It's been 2 years and I'm wondering the same thing.
It's been four years. Do we have flying cyber sharknados anywhere?
After watching this, it looks like it's just some valves and gas pockets. Nothing interesting beyond the mold and title.
@@Requiemrexx Yeah. Robotics currently sucks, let's see in 20-40 years. It will most certainly improve dramatically
@@kombosabinho robots used in factories: 👁👄👁
And this was how all those japanese tentacle hentai's became real...
.
.

Neat
*Noice!*
Can't wait for this technology to show up in a FleshLight.
Just imagine! a FleshLight sleeve with realistic muscle contractions!
what the fuck
yes
They showcase this new technology and that's what you think of? Disgusting.
I'll take a "flashlight"as well.
I caught one of those off a jetty in Australia. Some Ozzy bloke said it was a "squid" or something.
Squid, haha. What kind of nonsense words will they come up with next?
@@benevolentworldexploder5395 just you wait. They have a silly little term pronounced, “woildfoiyahs”
Evangelion...Metal Gear... I'm ready
bryant quintana But for evangelion, we have to clone a giant alien and cover it with giant armor pieces.And there's that neural link entry plug... But sadly this has nothing to do with Eva units...
But metal gear, yeah. that is relatable with this tech.
TentacleHentai
I thought it was a robo squid-ward
When you are 500000 it will happen! :)
That "printing" into liquid silicon is genius
Imagine 50 years from now watching a robot octopus swim in a tank just like the real thing
You must create prostetic limbs with this!!! It will create perfect symbiosis with inner hard bone structure with joints like sceleton and this like muscels and flesh! Hello my droid limb :)
Ah yes, limbs, of course. if you know what I mean ;)
Genuine tentacle porn is a feasible prospect in the near future.
prostetic arm powered by half strength rocket fuel and rare earth metals
@@DylanG1105 imagine the right hook you could give someone with that, it would annihilate them
_guys my bones are getting squishy_
I present you the future
Me: oh shit where'd it go
My cat: ....
Back in my day robots were hard and tough but theses new generations of bots are soft and weak
same thing with humans
so adorable!🥺💓 Wish I could buy it as a pet robot.
Imagine making this into Human Bionic Muscles! 💪
Yes. Now make it find food and convert it to fuel
Are you trying to make Horizon Zero Dawn happen? Because that’s how you get Horizon Zero Dawn.
It's so soft that if you say
Dream sucks at mc
Its starts to cry
lmao
A particular group of artists are happy about this
Scientists of 90's : we will have flying cars in 2020
2020: robot octopus which runs on gas
Hes not soft, he's just sensitive. Lol
Yep, that looks really frickin' handy.
Meet the world's first soft robot
-4 years ago into my recommendation
Tentacles? I've seen enough of the internet to know where this is going.
I used to have a creepy crawlies oven when I was a kid, this is basically the same thing
Oh yeah, the whole thing glows under a black light - just for fun
*Me : I need that black light to sleep in afternoon
So this uses soft instead of firm ware?
JAJAJJAJAJJAJAJJAHAHAHAHHAHJHAHAJHAHJAHA
Every programmer gangster until the soft robotic octopus takes your job
it's alive! it's alive!
MMM gummie robos, delicious
Remember to let them bake for 4 days
I could have gone my entire life without knowing of this existence and yet here we are
It's all coming together
This is basically a chuck e cheese animatronic but with different materials (like the vid said). I'll celebrate the advancement of tech once it starts to feel.
Fruit gummy, very tasty
Ooh noo...
Yooo, it's a fellow bow
@@eonranger8884 bow gang
@@bingo6073 Bow Gang
I don't like where this is going
Hmm, tentacles robot
Japan: Yes
0:43 - "Black Light"... Fancy name for no light!
Not so much a robot as a proof of concept, and not the first either.
What if the teams making these brought in a career puppeteer to help experiment with movement?
There are so many houses and schools of thought needed to be understood and Incorporated in order to make these little robots. More and more each day I'm learning to take less things for granted and be grateful for every technological advancement my society has given. I didn't make or invent one darn thing but I appreciate it all.
It had to be an octopus..
Octobots.... como esto no se haga un juguete que todos podamos comprar, me voy a una esquinita a llorar(?
Anyone else randomly get this recommended? 🖖🏼
Why is this not more popular?
Dr octopus is shook
I have a soft robot too, but it can get hard pretty quickly. . .
lemme guess, it comes with a built-in "fire extinguisher"?
no
MIT : Come here right foking now !
D-D-D-D-D-D-DICK JOKESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS xd
I see what you did there. 😏
Everyone: this should be used for sextoys
Me: I think there are less expensive options in the market that are exactly the same
Wait a goddamn minute who the fuck said something like that?
@@dontcare3293 At least a quarter of the topmost comments, it's everywhere.
@@dontcare3293 it’s moving tentacles, of course porn is going to be brought up.
Not viable though, rocket fuel ain’t exactly for anyone
tentacle h3ntai admirers: I see this as an absolute win.
Incredible invention
I WANT ONE!!! (or a thousand) How do I get it!? Please give me a way to blow all my savings on these bad boyes!
one costs 20k
These are just pathfinders for when they start making thick robo waifus.
Hopefully. A robo-maid that starts with the bottom shelf first.
That's what you took from this?
And don't forget the vigorous (rocket fuel propelled) husbandos
@Wrathof GOD Oh good, strange people are replying to me now.
@Wrathof GOD Facebook? Strangers? I was saying you are strange not a stranger. The fuck?
It’s a decepticon.
Finally something educational on my recommendation.
awesome!!
Hail Hydra !
And what does it do?
Oh nothing much, just wiggles a little
What a softie
The military stealth applications for these would be endless, surveillance, tracking, sticking to vessels and detonating using liquid explosives. Plus it would be indistingushable from other sealife via traditional sonar.
Guess the best defense would be dolphin like robots to scan sealife or destroy it if its a drone.
You got an odd perspective on new technology use cases.
ahhhghahha yamede kudasai!!
Looks like old Creepy Crawlers molds. Still got mine!
Rocket fuel powered octopus...
A rocketpus.
Oh god.
Didn't know they were adding "tentacles" genre to live adaptations....
"I have no tentacles and I must wiggle"
And thus, world hunger was no more
This isn't progress, it's madness.
Something about this... is super useful.
Video : Soft Robot!
My Brain : *BAYMAX*
You want to terminators? Cause that's how you make terminators
>First completely soft robot
>Is an octopus-like thingy
_Oh yeah its all coming together_
Glows under black light. How neat is that!
Robot octopus
Weebs: oh hell yeah
_These are just the small prototypes..._
_...Unleash the Kraken!!!_ 🐙
Oh no, only Godzilla can save us!🐙🐊
@@geregorik6489 XD
uploaded 4 years ago and still have only 841k views? This video deserves more
The molds looked like they were casting Hydra emblems, haha
It started out all cool, innovative, and innocent, but then the phrase “half-strength rocket fuel” starts getting thrown around and now all I want to do is see one on fire. 😅
So it won't be a terminator that kills me, it's gonna be a pokemon ...great,just great.
Octobot?
Spider-Man fans: *(softly): “Don’t”*
Oh look the robots are making robots again
You're a little late, in the 60's we had creepy crawlers. LOL. Good work! Go ERAU!
I could think of a few nifty ways to use robotic tentacles
We are getting closer to making synths
Octobot: bakes for four days
Me: ruins ramen noodles and burns popcorn
The beginning of T-1000
Squidward liked the video
It’s an octopus which has to expand bubbles on it’s arm to move... which is actually a really interesting idea for how a creature might evolve a mode of locomotion using breathing to move... random thought.
Also everyone else in the comments is being weird, I’m out here mentioning science as a thought, cause if a robot can do it, life can do it better, slower and over a long grueling period of combative and hostile time, but better either way.
that feeling of something's crawling under your skin.. .
At first glance, I thought it was a Tick and not an Octopus...
Doujin Artists: Write that down! Write that down!
Octonauts: *NEW* *OCTOPOD*
YES
Fuck I’m gonna feel awful if they guys starting asking us existential questions
" "
"no you are a robot"
" "
they technically cant talk they dont have voice boxes or vocal chords
@@omarpikm2101 they can type and god forbid they start making avatars
Is this where we start sharing consciousness with artificial objects and exploring the universe as immortal plastic avatars?
And this is how the society of Splatoon was born.
I am thoroughly impressed, gob-smacked, by the creativity on display here. I hope the creators receive the financing they'll need to pursue this.
