This project is awesome, and I can't wait to see mech racing become a real thing. Will the mech be partially covered in plates at some point, or is always gonna have that skeletal frame exposed? Obviously not where it obscures pilot visibility, but it definitely looks like some areas on the mech could be covered with some kind of surface to make it look more "complete". Or is there a good reason for it to be skeletal like that?

@@Invalid571 Armour certainly does but we're thinking primarily aesthetic. What body panels we currently have are aluminum. As budget permits, they will evolve to be carbon composite with the odd metal reinforced zone.
This design has more potential to be useful (and fun!) than any other solution I have seen to date. The control/pilot's pod is the real key. A more biomemetic design may enable a smoother gait. I guess i want to see a kind of headless dog shaped mech with the pilot/control pod where the rib cage would be.
@@exosapientech You just made me a very happy nerd. I favour cats. Only reason I went for dog shape was the gait profiles they have. Humans and wolves have a lope gait that allows rest whilst moving. I gotta say though, A Panther Mech sounds more better.
WORD , they are underrated it's CRIMINAL they are making real life freaking mechs with human pilots and they are no anime or robotics fans losing their head over it in this comment section ?? blas p h e m y. They are amazing
Not quite "racing", but I love seeing more video of this! I can't help but picture a cockpit that's independent of (and stabilized from) the jerky and tiring movements of the chassis -- I would expect that more fluid movements are a goal because operator fatigue can't be such an omnipresent complication... Obviously that'd be a lot more work, but it seems like a practical necessity. Then again, if it's just short spans of locomotion that allow for easier use of a jackhammer then maybe it's less of an issue. Have you attempted to add any extensions other than the front/back stabilizer prongs? Would the additional weight of a heavy tool make the platform unstable? I'd also be curious to see one of these dressed up a bit with thoughtfully-placed lightweight panels (plastic or stretched nylon fabric?) so that it doesn't look like such an unfinished thing; Right now it has the appearance of scaffolding, when it could look more like mechanical origami. Just thoughts. Your contraption already provides an awesome jumping-off point for the imagination! :D
You're bang on Genetic Blasphemy. The pilot is suspended in all 3 directions already but this last winter we substantially upgraded the pilot suspension system - it's gloriously floaty! (if you make it toooo floaty, you can't balance though. There's as sweet spot). We also have body panels in the works. See my response to @Magnus above.
It looks magnificent!!! The first step, it is the most difficult. This has been the case throughout the history of mankind. I hope that in the near future mecho-runners will become an amazing show at the world level >_=
Takes a ridiculous proportion of our limited 3.5 +1 person crew to release content. Winter time was for putting the mech up on blocks and getting some sweet upgrades done. Now that we've got Joseph in the mix, and the mech emerging from its winter slumber you can expect more regular content again.
This is the single coolest thing I’ve ever seen my god guys y’all are legends. A question: why not have the legs more in the back and front instead of on the sides? It seems more stable and stuff but guessing it had something to do with how humans function. Anyways can’t wait to see flying jumping mech bots going through giant sized parkour with unique designs in the future by god am I impressed and exited. This is just like titanfall but in real life. You guys are making dreams come true can’t wait to see more.
Thanks man. Jon will say having all the legs in a row was just too simplify things for this first prototype. Lessens the loads when shifting the weight around. Another benifit is that it can turn in the spot, essentially a 0 "wheelbase". Future mechs we'll experiment with other leg layouts though for sure.
@@CurtisPerrin88 ahh I see so it’s just one variation cool. Thanks! It’s cool how active you are with the community and just the mechs in general. Can’t wait to see more

Nice to have you back, good soundtrack choice, and especially cool to see that you'll have very much less problems, to move it around, than Megabot with Eagle-1!
It could do it quite a bit faster today. That was 2 years ago. We've done many improvements in the time since then. We're raising money to build the next generation mech(s). For Gen 2 we're targeting half the way and twice the power so it'd going to move. Prosthesis is after all our only our first proof of concept prototype. We know so many different ways to make it better in almost every aspect.
Ah, the old "the soul is in the mail" trick. We'll let you know as soon as we take delivery and start construction of the soul mech😜. On another note, how much Bitcoin can we get for a soul these days?
Last time we checked it was about 3700kg in 2017. We've added a few parts since then. We built the battery in house, 100v pack with 300kg of Lifepo4 cells. Puts out 800+ amps continuous on a regular basis.
@@samcarter7359 Hmm. With all the Hydraulics its running what does that transfer too in terms of normal operational load time, like 4 hours or somthing? Im not the best with electronic systems.
@@lordfrostdraken there are 2 hydraulic pumps, each with their own electric motor. For training exercises, and walking around you only need 1 pump and that can last around an hour. Going full tilt with 2 pumps, it'll go for about 20 minutes. With our current charger setup it takes 5 hours for a full charge but we could shorten that to 1 if we had the infrastructure. Most of our field testing relies on a generator for power at this point, so we're limited by how many watts it can push out. There's better ways to do it if you have the money.
@@samcarter7359 Hmm, so its a capacity limitation, is there a more energy dense type of battery you could install, cause 20 minutes at full load seems a bit dangerous. But im not in charge, im just curious.
@@lordfrostdraken , the batteries aren't in any danger of being pushed too hard. The C rating of battery is a measure of how many Amps the battery can safely discharge and charge at. At full tilt we're at less than half the max C rating for these cells. That being said, the pack is now using cells that are 6 years old, we could definitely build a a pack with more capacity in the same volume using more modern cells. Other limitations to run time are motor and hydraulic oil temperatures, both of which can be addressed with more engineering and time. And finally, pilot fatigue is another limiting factor that we deal with daily. Depending on what you're doing in the mech, trying to push past 20 minutes of run time can be physically exhausting if you're really pushing hard.

Love the video's there amazing to see them in action. Got a question? When you have everything up and running for when it becomes an official sport. What kind of theme are you going to go with. Like, animals, objects, Etc. Something in that general area to say. Like for example The Purple Wolves ( doesn't sound too bad to me) but that's what I mean basically. And of course having sponsors around it of course. Just wondering.
Interesting question. There won't be a theme per se. People regularyl draw associations between the mechs and familiar creatures, but it's all in the eye of the beholder. Engineering drives all the design in pursuit of performance. There will be different classes based on weight, size and degrees of freedom (DOF).The architecture, and thus appearance, of the mechs will evolve to optimize within the constraints of the racing classes. Prosthesis, for example, is 4000kg, 4m x 5.5m w 5m and has 8-DOF. The next class will have 12-DOF, which means the hips on the mech's legs will be able to pivot in and out, as well as swing back and forth. This will create a totally different type of mech.
. This is really like watching footage of the old Mk.I tanks of WWI. Slow, crude looking, sometimes misunderstood, but SO awesome. This is the right step in the right direction at the right point in history. I would MUCH rather have one of these than anything Elon is putting out.
@@exosapientech Sounds like a solid plan. Road trip to Kitty Hawk, then a jaunt down to Merritt Island, FL to show her off to NASA and SpaceX. "MECHs' IN SPACE"
I know it's not necessarily the goal of this project, but would it be possible to simplify the control scheme to use legs only, so that the arms would be free for something like manipulator arms?
@@samcarter7359 I eagerly await the day that mechanized relay races passing a 100lb baton becomes a thing. Or. Y'know, just throwing cars at each other. I'd take either.
Bipedal will actually be more complicated because each leg requires more degrees of freedom. Right now we only have two (knee rotation & hip rotation) no sideways motion or actively controlled ankles. We'll get there though. The way forward is clear!
Oh, don't you worry Joseph, you'll get your fill of Wild Wild West references now that you're working in our videos with us. As someone who build an actual mechanical spider (The Mondo Spider) and toured it around the world for a decade, and has now built a giant 4-legged mech suit, I've had enough Wild Wild West references to last several lifetimes.

I think 🤔 it needs more flexibility or agility...for moving.... overall hope their is some sort of a brain box to help balancing with the inputs ....the operating feature seems more manual...than being automatic......
It's still funny to me calling this thing an Mechsuit.. well yes, it certainly is, even though I'd call it something like four legged crab mech tall as a building.. I just love the design, haven't seen anything like that but that might just be my own fault
Super rad , now just need to add some intelligence to it. (Tell it what you want to do .. and the computer will make all the movements to make it happen)
@@exosapientech i don't mean take away the thrill of piloting , i was thinking more like how modern aircraft operate. A "fly by wire" type system. You would imput the command to move the leg, but that signal would be sent to the computer and it would calculate all the fine details to do it as precise as possible.... So you can focus on the race itself
Nope. Totally unscripted. I definitely told Jon not to drive that way in our rear wheel drive Ram while towing the mech. And yet he did anyway for reasons unknown to me. But hey it made for a good video.
