I've previously built several robot dogs which used a variety of servos and brushless motors. The most agile robot dogs are the ones with back-drivable low-ratio reducers which allows the motor to be back-driven so we get some natural spring in the legs - which can be controlled on the fly with software. So it's time for openDog V3 - this version uses my Cycloidal Drives which I've developed over the last few months. I will eventually publish the CAD and code as open source when it works.

Just last night I was thinking "Too bad James Bruton doesn't work on his dogs anymore" and here we go! What a great way to start a day.
With all these printed parts, the whole thing also takes a little time :D
Are you kidding me? The man never sleeps. He's literally Jimmy Neutron all grown up.
Dude that was me this morning! This series, Jerryrigeverything's hummer and Colin furze's tunnel (idk where colin is) they're all giving me life right now.
Thank you so much James, Jerry and Colin!!!!
@@itsprobablykiaan Check out ILikeToMakeStuff's Karmann Ghia if you want more of the same, btw! Love this stuff and James is one of the best.
But a fool you were
It’s almost sacrilegious to reduce this amount of development work down to a 14 minute TH-cam video! I can only guess how much time this took in real life, but it must have been very substantial.
Anyway, this looks really promising, and I can’t wait to see the end result.
And he is doing this every week.
I'm sure that the development from v1 to v2 to v3 impacts that greatly. Very little of this is things that he hasn't done before, this is more a perfection of version 2 with the gearboxes.
Every time you see the prints, you realise the amount of time he's been working on his projects. That looks like weeks worth of printing, at least!
Fortunate he got loads of 3d printers :D
Oh for fecks sake Rita go home, no one wants to hear your poetry
@@rorygallagher628 Its a bot not a person, best to just report it and move on, especially since there are more than two of them iirc
Edit: Frankly, its somewhat amusing and infuriating in equal measure just how little Google actually cares about spam bots and other things like that since they don't do anything but ban people who say things they don't like
Mmmmm yes, been waiting for V3 keenly. New colour scheme is mad as well
Ikr
You can see all the lessons learned from v1 and v2 in v3. The pace of build is also so much faster. It looks lean and refined. Excited to see how it performs with electronics onboard!
There is going to be v3.1 though. There's no way that he won't fix the top bars :)
I'm amazed by how much quality work you do in a week - from design to printing to assembly to video filming and editing. Do you have people who help you get all this done?
what happed here
@@thyros_ No idea. I've reported some of them, but more came.
@@rdyer8764 There's multiple bots and Google won't do anything to them since they're small time, they have more important things to do like banning free speech and all that :P
Edit: I'll just say I spent around 10 minutes combing through the comments section and reporting all of the Rita-Bots for spam (over a hundred methinks), it gets a bit faster once you streamline the process and get more efficient at it: (triple dots, report, unwanted commercial content and spam, ok, ok, scroll to next bot)
@@Avetho last time I heard anyone talk about “banning free speech” it was butthurt people who wanted trump to win and got banned for spamming… lol
@@7XHARDER oh trust me I don't like spammers either, no matter what they are saying XD
stout supporter of "slow mode" in stream chats and whatnot lol, no unintelligible waterfall of matrix text
it's crazy that James puts all this work into making these fantastic projects, and then just... makes them open source. Honestly a huge breath of fresh air.
@@ericlotze7724 cant wait to see that pack.
Its amazing how much you can done in such a small time. So many projects, so much CAD work and then the editing on top of that!
Finally, when the wacky wheel saga ended our robot good boi has returned
It's a cycle, he builds a dog, goes onto do seemingly random things, then comes back to the dog with what he's learned, repeat.
Damn, the more I look at this channel, the more I want to start building bots... So cool you are making those kind of OpenSource project , really helpful for begginer, will totally try this out!
I know about 15% maximum what's happening here, but I do know that this is some engineering-ass engineering!
“Open Dog version 2 which works ok.” I think you’re underselling your achievement there James!
The build so far is looking like a well integrated piece of kit. Looking forward to seeing its evolution.
This is the bread and butter... the very reason I watch this fantastic channel... the open source boston dynamics-ish nightmare... I want to be able to print my own version of what keeps people up at night...
Ivan Miranda definitely approves the colour of the dog!
It says something about the quality of your videos and the caliber of your audience metrics that a high end professional engineering software company like Altium sponsors you!
Well that came out of nowhere!!! Cant wait for Open Dog V3.
thank you 3dfuel for providing all the filament in the world for this man
Wow man I'm out of words. I love how you iterated the motor design and now your assembling v2. Too good!
Stunning as always, James! Thank you for putting so much work into all of your videos.
So much printing, screwing and cutting, this is determination
I really appreciate you taking the time to develop this and share your knowledge with us.
These videos are such insanely high quality.
Congrats on 1M btw!
So excited for the new iteration James. As a long time viewer, it's been great to see your evolution in design and process.
The work you have been doing has really paid off, that thing looks stellar! Excited to see how it runs!
You are a mad genius. Any other you-tuber would make this build a 30 part vid series just to get as far as you did in 1 vid....super exited for he next episode!!
Red and black looks so nice.
This is incredible as usual man! Looking forward to track the progress! Congrats on your 1 mil!
just seeing it on the stand is exciting! i cant wait to see it powered up! the more you develop this the more it looks like spot, its so impressive that youve made this on your own
What a great project ! Thank you for putting so much in only one video :) Looking forward to the updates!
James is an actual modern-day hero of the people.
Big up, my man. Love to see the dogs project getting some more love.
If weight wise the bearings are still to heavy, consider trying UHMW rod. UHMW has a great natural lubricity to it. As long as your not putting UHMW against itself it slides wonderfully. Which would be a considerable weight savings. I would say that nylon didn't work as well partly due to the fact you had one solid rod interfacing with both the upper and lower drive, which are moving opposite each other.
If you use UHMW naturally it would be possible to replace those labor intensive metal rods with larger, printed fitting alternatives right?
@@joe7272 i am not sure tbh, i have only used it in small applications for its lubricity. where the material thickness is thinner to begin with. In these applications till will compress and deform. But that is not considered a problem. as it returns to original shape unless marred by something.
I now i tend to favor metals for shafts as opposed to printed ones, partly due to the lack of layer line weaknesses and dimensional stability.
Such a talented person! Love your work. Thanks for the CAD❣️
You are a legend. So much effort and quality on such a compact video! Amazing! We need more youtube channels with such high level of content.
So lucky to have some one of this skill just sharing videos and ideas to the internet. Thanks for always keeping my mind active.
Speechless. True service to humanity here. Unequivocal praise from me. Thank you and keep going.
This is crazy awesome! As an engineering undergrad, the more I learn the more I appreciate how hard every part of the process of designing and building such a robot is, and you just nail every part of it!!
Now make it fetch 😉
Thank you for the great video once again !
I know you composed the previous one, but to be honest, I really like that you changed the timelapse's music. It is much more pleasant on my ears !
Good luck for all the hard work !
Amazing! Your Opendog videos are definitely my favourite!!!
Very excited about V3 - keep up the amazing work!
It actually weighs as much as a real dog! That's so fun.
Hi James. I’ve been watching your videos over the past few weeks as a “non subscriber” and I’m always amazed at how much effort you put into your projects. This one makes me wonder how you even have time to eat/sleep with all the R&D you’re doing. Finally pressed the subscribe button. Keep up the great work.
Yet another great video from James. Thank you !
really super cool. great job. can't wait to see this version go all the way to operations!
Great project James, great to see the dogs returning 😁 Also congratulations on hitting 1 million subscribers! I’ve been subscribed for yeeears, so know how much effort it has taken you! Congratulations! 👏👏👏
Amazing work. Looking forward to next episodes with this project⚙️🔥
So much work. Huge respect for your engineering stamina.
I'm very impressed by your work James!
The movement of robo-dog does have an excited character to it. Thank you for an excellent video.
This level of development by a single person in such a short period of time without millions in funding is unheard of in robotics. Almost sacrilegious. This is truely disruptive. How has general dynamics not hired this guy yet?
Wow! That's a ton of work! Incredible job!
very impressive, they just keep getting better, amazing work 👍
Very cool indeed. All those iterations and test builds have definitely paid off.
i really appreciate and admire your open source work! thanks :D cheers to all open source projects
this is 3D printing at its prime. Thankyou for your big bumpy brain James
lot of hard work ! It's looking dam cool
To debur the rods you can make a jig with either just a hole or a few bearings🔥👍
Hold the dremel in the right angle and enjoy the satisfaction before you run out of rods 😁
It still breaks my brain that these are so back drivable. Awesome work. So much progress in so little time
just brilliant, glad I found your link. I think I may be up for this build! Thank you
Do you sleep? Do you have a room detached from our normal time flow? You achieve so much. Amazing
Nice work James! Looking really good.
Hell ya James, I appreciate you carrying the torch for 3d printable robotics for humanity!!!
Very inspiring. One of the best channels.
Super excited to see this version operate!
Your work is sick, man. Massive inspiration
Great video James, time laps was great.
Nice work James! Thanks for sharing
Amazing as always! Nice work!
I see it: Bruton Dynamics :-D. DIV-Dogs for everyone
Well done. Exited what you will develop in future
I think your greatest joy is to keep coning up with new iterations of robot dog.
I think you'll be done when it can do all horse movements and jumps.
you're an absolute beast! such productivity! very impress.
Fantastic video! Thanks for sharing your ingenious work!
This guy is brilliant, the amount of work to do this alone is insane .
Absolutely beautiful work✌🏻 Congratulations!
Ive been looking forward to this. I love big projects
Such an awesome project, I can’t wait to see it running. I hope some others make their own too!
OPENDOG!! Love when you post new stuff on this project
Wow, congratulations on reaching 1 million subscribers, I have always admired you, you are a very talented person, also grateful for your generosity, your designs are impressive
Looks a heck of a lot better than the previous ones! Nice work!
The work you put into this is amazing. I'm gob smacked
That is pure insanity 😲 great work!
what a time to be alive
Can't wait to build on of these!
I really hope the natural compliance will be decent.
You're the best James!
The moment we've been waiting for!!
Watching this video is like Christmas! Glad to see you hopped on the Lulzbot Sidekick train :)
This version of open dog is looking amazing already
Every time he makes a new robot I am impressed at how much the quality is improving.
Really nice video, I love this content!
Wow - this really is excellent.
Can’t wait for more👍🏻
This one is looking really good.
Looks better. nice one James
Thats awfull amount of work! Good job!
nice look and color for this one
design looking Strong 😃
thanks for sharing your experience with all of us 👍😀
Excellent project 👍 I liked it 👏
You are an inspiration sir. 2 months after this video is posted, I'm sitting here debating on if I shouldn't give up on a dream for robotics, but no. Driven on again.
Congrats on the 1 million!
Congrats on 1 million subscribers James!
