Proper technology thread
static images need not apply
what happens if you hit it with a hammer
Skateboards are technology
>>52439123
It breaks. If you didn't manage to dent it, IMUs are probably fucked.
They made a bigger version too.

Oh look, a glorified gyroscope. How marvelous.
>>52439123
Doubt the gyroscopes could balance for that fast enough, so it'd probably go flying
>>52439198
JEW PHYSICS
>>52439212
Gyroscopes spin like a top, while actual thought went into whatever OP's thing is
>>52439062
Why not just make a drone.
>>52439230
But it does the same fucking thing as a regular gyroscope, you push it around and shit and it balances itself, big fucking whoop
>>52439242
because OPs image is not a drone moron
>>52439242
Drones aren't proper technology. Sure they're advanced, but they need constant maintenance, replacement parts etc.
>>52439258
>meh gyroscope
>meh meh
>>52439258
That's like saying a flare gun and a sniper rifle are the same fucking thing. I mean, you pull the trigger and stuff goes out. The act of balancing on an edge that's only a couple milimeters while not using spinning to keep it balanced is pretty cool.
>>52439258
Wrong, it can control its orientation without any sort of thruster. A drone equipped with this would be much more maneuverable for a layman with no flying experience. The beauty of technology is its application, not the components themselves
>>52439267
>Drones aren't proper technology.
I don't understand that sentence.
>they need constant maintenance, replacement parts etc
So do cars.
>>52439331
When I say drone I was imaging something you could actually sit in, maybe a hover bike
That would be neat
>be OP
>make a thread hoping everybody would get along and post cool tech
>everybody just argues over what I posted
>>52439370
First rule of posting: never post an image more interesting that your post
>>52439427
don't post sluts, you dirty whore!
>>52439427
Ok, I wont post your mom then...
>>52439427
that rule doesn't apply when the threads entire reason for existing is interesting tech
also super-sensitive stabilizing tech is nothing new
MIT made ones that can jump and shit
>>52439542
Has MIT made anything useful this century?
>>52439572
ofc not
the idea of competitiveness is completely gone from all forms of education, so no, it hasn't

Are you that retarded?
Dude that threads needs a lift.

You must be mistaken. We don't discuss tech here
>>52439572
They made that one Battlebots robot
>>52441228

Damn.

what is that?
>>52441463
It's called a drill. Come on, you know it.
>proper technology
Cmon be real, this is the /v/ hardware support & discussion board, g00k should rename it already.
>>52441498
No he shouldn't, because we couldn't send them away anymore.
>>52441429
Is this what sex is like?

Holy shit.

This I was falling asleep watching it.

Hell, if that was on homeshopping I'd probably buy one and watch it all day.

It's not a gyroscope.
It's a reaction wheel.
Gyro's keep running and auto-correction comes from the torque provided by their angular momentum.
Reaction wheels are attached to motors which are controlled to add or subtract momentum from a given axis, thus balancing the cube.
Funfact: this shit is used on satellites. It's better than micro thrusters and you theoretically could extract the energy back.
>>52441577
fucking chink degeneracy
>>52441336
yeah it's pretty sexy before it turns into a desaster.
>>52441474
fuck that's impressive
>>52441860
what did they do to that horse? that is so fucked up
>>52441672
>it does not come with a bathroom
This is like a demon curse:
Want to live? Get ready to swim on your own shit for the next two to three weeks.
>>52441008
for what purpose?
>>52441860
is that animatronic or just an abomination?
>>52441605
And where could I get one?
>>52442047
under that there must be some kind of rail that you either don't want to step in or you don't want shit falling in/on.
>>52442164
The expressions on the workers faces are priceless.

are you retarded
that's not a real horse
>>52442083
you can't post such a webm and not provide a source
dude
what the hell post source
>>52441228
Still better than what modern U.S.A commercial pilots can do.

>technology doesn't require maintenance
You clean your computer of dust, right? You service your car? Hell, I'm sure you've at the very least had to change a lightbulb at some point in your life, right?
>>52442563
It's a Thinkpad T420

shhh don't fight it...just enjoy it.
>>52442425
That thing really needs vibration damping
>>52442047
This is from Bugatti if I recall correctly. A team of guys pushes the rear end of the car down this track to the front end, so this is probably for their safety

Planet America. I like the sound of that. Vote trump 2016.

The cube in the video also needs constant maintenance and replacement parts.
