An MKBHD interview with Lanny Smoot please!

There are more things you guys are also known about

Many more things your known for right

Exciting stuff!

+

We're finally getting closer to ready player one's vision 😩

@@user-gw1os2lb3j thats bad you get that right?

@@Konarcoffee huh?

Yeah I'm glad I finally got a video that actually explained how the freaking tiles work lol

I wonder how much height it will need if it will become available if it requires less than a foot it would be great 5 inches would be massive for home entertainment or game centers

For real, dude seems awesome!

That man is a legend and not having Lanny and Marques together is a missed opportunity.

Yeah, he gives off "just a dad working on things he's passionate about" energy

Please make this happen! ❤

I agree that would be an amazing interview

Awesome! Definitely AI is on the rise. Imagine what Quantum Computing and Metaverse will look like in the 2030s or 2050s

what's weird about those little droids is they are using pretty old hardware. Its not even in the current generation of GPU's. They were these little A.I boards Nvidia made years ago and apparently they run on those. I was sad to see that they are controlled by humans but still absolutely adorable.

That and the GPD Win 3 I saw and my first thought was "that'd be great for a ROS controller for industrial robots".

Had the same exact thought while watching. That is just too funny.

timestamp please?

nvm 4:41

They HAVE to invite him back for progress reports.

An episode for the lightsaber

Insane

Hey if a sub can use a Logitech controller, then why not?

At 3:42 they are using a Nunchuck for the treadmill thingy

Why? It's basically a fully linux computer that has a built in controller

Why? It's a great piece of hardware and they don't have to build something from scratch.

Hahaha, that would be pretty funny!

RUNNING IN THE 90S is a new way to set me free

imagine moonwalking on this

We need more of this!

Wonder if Disney patented it, I would assume so

@@tidnid1869It's disney, they definitely has multiple patents on it. The reason Lenny has over 70 patents is because disney patent anything they can get through the patent office.

I've definitely seen someone playing VR on something very similar to this on tiktok

"Having this for VR would be killer"

@@tidnid1869 they said he has over 70 ,..... so prob so.

You mean humans?

It seems like using spheres instead of discs would get around this issue? But perhaps spheres are harder to actuate at this scale.

I have to imagine that at this stage they haven't really done much to control the noise. It would make sense to focus on getting the motion control right, then focus on reducing noise while maintaining the same motion control capabilities. If they spent a lot of time and money on noise now there could easily be a design change needed that would necessitate throwing all the noise reduction work out the window.

Pretty sure the disks are some kind of very low friction material.

@@stephenzuccaro1090this might be a great idea

Also, the video mentioned making them small but the smaller you make it, the faster it would have to spin to achieve the same edge speed. I bet this is a lot of fun to work on

So he's basically Lucius Fox?

​@@Tiger10002 do you think mkbhd asked his parents for money to buy a professional camera? Work hard and earn it on your own kid. Otherwise you're gonna face disappointment in the future.

@@Osaaamaaa Literally yes, MKBHD comes from a wealthy background. Obviously hard work and dedication are necesarry too, and he got that.

@@Osaaamaaa Should I use my bootstraps?

I wonder what the usefulness would be in something like warehousing infrastructure. Looks like a cool way for automatically bringing supplies to a manufacturing line

@@marwin4348 he has previously said he bought all his professional gear with money he made off youtube. He began youtube when he was in highschool and his parents didn't buy him any professional gear. He worked hard and levelled up on his own.

Think by that point the system would be able to identify where things need to go on its own, by then would likely be entirely automated

@@extremeencounter7458 but it would be fun tho

this already exists​@@extremeencounter7458

They pretty much have the necessary functionality for things like this in high tech warehouses and mail sorting facilities. But I'm sure this can be taken even further.

Wharehouse automation can be done with far more simple technology though 😅

Yes!👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

Genius

I immediately thought, why isn't he wearing his own shoes?

Based on the melanin rich emojis I’m seeing, we’re also proud for the obvious reason 🙌🏾🎉

Disney adults are next level

I mean, yeah. He's not a reviewer, he's an advertiser. Big corporations feel safe around him. Not the complement you think it is.

So when a tech company is successful, it’s thanks to his influence. But when a company fails, it’s not his fault? 🤦‍♂️

Negative dudes incoming 💀👆👇

@@jmc042have you seen any of his reviews bro?

@@jmc042 Credit where credit is due, MKBHD has always came across as honest when he likes a product or not. Unlike most other reviewers, he tries to see the philosophy that went into making a product and go beyond their marketed attributes to determine if it's worth it or not. With a channel of his size, any product he showcases is gonna be an advertisement for it, wether he has good or bad things to say about them.

So you can exercise while playing ,nlce

not yet

not a mat, that’s definitely built into the floor

most people, like 99% of gamers wouldn't use it. it's waaay too physical. I want to try it too but I'm sure I won't use it more than a few times. Specially true for older (not teens) gamers. We want to sit and play for a little while after work. We don't want a full work out battle every 20 minutes 😂

@@kingfisher46 Gonna get skinny while walking across empty planets in Starfield.

Was there an original film about the pirates before Johnny Depp? How good was it?

@@tatianaes3354 Funnily enough, those films are based on the attraction at Disneyland. Same thing happened with Jungle Cruise; Disneyland attraction came first, film came after.

@@tatianaes3354 No, it was just an attraction and movie was based on it.

Wow

Name me one transportation or shipping use.

@@EikottXD Moving packages in a warehouse precisely

@@EikottXD They do this sort of thing on planes as well. Some planes have massive containers for your luggage and other items on board that have to be lifted, reoriented and placed on a vehicle for transport. I've only seen this as a passenger so I'm ignorant of the full process here, but i do know that this can take a considerable amount of time for a single container. Reorienting each container has to be done with a human operated controller and takes a lot of finagling and precise inputs.

@@EikottXD Have the floor of a cargo truck covered in Holotile, as well as specific pathways through the warehouse. A worker could just "force push", or just remote control, crates and pallets around, and you'd only need to bust out the forklift to lift and stack the cargo. The less driving a piece of heavy machinery in an enclosed space where people walk, the better.

@@GODOFGUITAR2112yeah not really. Imagine how much would this cost ? A random loser operating a work lift is the way to go

When it gets cheaper? Absolutely. Problem is this kind of technology is still expensive and we don’t know how well this scales down. Or how portable it is.

Nope definitely not. You'd need convincing climate/wind simulation for that.

@@Nicktals seriously, fixing the wind issue would be the easiest thing to solve once you have a holotile that works at home.

@@JasonMamoa-ee2fl Durability? They might also include sensing as well.

@@Nicktalsclimate and wind solutions already exist. We have fans, humidifiers, heat lamps, air conditioning, etc. obviously it would be hard to make that work at your house, but it would be very doable for like a theme park or vr experience type place.

Blah 🙂...

we didnt need it

F Disney he aold out tho

Needed.. No, it's an awful company.

@@TurdFergusen we need it hehehe 😂😂😂😂 it's colored

They're using a whole range of controllers

@@hamza-chaudhry I know just funny how Disney a billion dollar company is using a Wii Nunchuck to control the Holotiles which I love.

That sounds very interesting! But I'd imagine the crux here is that you had a large enough space to where these changes to direction were gradual enough to be rendered imperceptible in combination with the adjusting visual perspective. But in a platform of this size I don't think you could easily pull off something like that.

damn thats genius!!

@@roxasthegreek i think if you tiled this design out to ~4 times it's size and made software adjustments to improve alignment, or reduce the wheel size as marcus mentioned, it would be large enough for freeform movement. And no matter how small the space, you could always incorporate the design philosophy to make it a little easier to work with what you have

@@roxasthegreek We didn't really have access to large spaces so we were trying to come up with ways it could work in smaller spaces. The company I was doing the project for eventually went under, but we did do some interesting stuff that would at least make a 20' x 20' room feel about 1.5x bigger. We wanted to try some additional stuff but ran out of time. The most interesting thing that we did was our algorithm for spawning enemies. For example, if we wanted the player to be "redirected" 20 degrees to the left, we would spawn an enemy to the right when they turned right, it LOOKED like it was 45 degrees, but was actually 35, and then we'd spawn another one to the left and when the player turned left, LOOKED 45 but was actually 55. I'm just making up those numbers off the top of my head, and you'd have to fiddle with the perceptual threshold (there's a delta angle above which you can definitely notice that the angle isn't correct), but it worked pretty well. If the player didn't turn as far as you'd like, you just spawn more enemies.

When this will become a standard, gamers will be like olympians 💪

Why the bot comment

@@lootownicano Olympians will become gamers

@@casynovidsin what world would this technology benefit vr golf? Would you wanna simulate walking to the ball you shanked into the water? Lmao tf are you talking about

Too bad that won't happen any time soon. It will be patented and used for some exhibits only at disney parks.

@@casynovidsgolf!? Wtf! 😂

although the is some work needed, it would make a killer ready player one omnidirectional treadmil the only thing holding it back is the feel of moving side ways while trying to move straight ahead.

He’s the only one

@@joshuamusser8893 except for CNET and others that went at the same time.

Disney does not give me a warm feeling, they are a horrible mega corporation and that completely overshadows everything else.

​@@mattymerr701 buzzkill

Or building a theme park that automatically moves you to a gift shop every 15 minutes :D

@@mattymerr701can you give some examples?

What wholesome and warm feeling?!? Cool tech but the fact it’s in Disney’s hands leaves a sour taste in my mouth

Implying they'd be able to make something like this that has this many moving parts on such a small scale that have to be strong enough to support an adult person. The wheels would start to jam and break within an hour.

wait its on temu??

@@snozzmcberry2366 I mean if its 1000th of the price its probably worth it.

@@snozzmcberry2366 nobody said it would be good or even functional

1st

disney is trash

Hi white

​@@Tiger10002 create content instead with what you've got now 🙄

If this was almost any other channel, I'd assume that they were given this animation by Disney. With this channel, I could absolutely believe it was done in-house.

Entire warehouses floored with this stuff, boxes just magically glide around to their destinations!

It’s at 4:44 ….coz it’s the Force!! May the 4th be with you!

I can't even imagine how expensive a setup like this would be... It will not be affordable for 90% of gamers.

@@jazzinthevoid 90 its giga low, 99% wont be able to affford this setup, the motors alone would cost a fortune then you need the software

And the space in the ground

@@RochyTw yeah this will never be a consumer product. Not just because it'd be expensive but just because at that point you're catering to a niche of a niche of a niche market. I mean Apple is learning that it is hard to sell an expensive VR headset right now as well. But for theme parks? Yeah this is dope.

@@DekenFrostremember computers in 1980s? Niche of a niche, requiring 2 rooms to store, expensive as hell?

But also pretty solved with cranes, gantries, and wheels. These definitely won't replace fork lifts

​@@lomiification might be something similar to this if a factory is fully automated, except maybe some person up in a control booth with some headset. Having no real people on the floor would let robots zoom around at dangerously high speeds while someone up top can manually move stuff safely if needed. But I think you're right that why go to all that trouble when you could just make a ceiling mounted crane do it too. I can't imagine it's less maintenance

Omnidirectional conveyor belts are already a thing

portable hope

Utterly useless

so remote-powered chairs? which already exists?

What's wrong with you two?? This comment is gold!

Feel like it would be counter intuitive for elderly folks. Remote control wheel chairs already exist and it's really loud which I imagine is not ideal for the elderly. Plus I imagine it would be really expensive to line up your an entire house or retirement home with it. Even then you would still need wheelchairs as how are they gonna go outside. It's only gonna be in your house. Really counter productive of a product as brilliant as this.

And this is why engineering is a high level job. People THINK their ideas make sense but than an engineer will come in and poke holes in it until its Swiss cheese lol. Electric wheel chairs are way better than an entire floor treadmill. Which is why we don’t have flying cars.

I'm 14 and it's deep

Actually, being able to have VR in cell may do wonders for a prisoner's mental health and rehabilitation.

You could just bunny hop your way to freedom.

@@jfifield20 We're not talking VR. Just a white room, 10'x10', where it is physically impossible to get more than 2 feet from any edge. I think that would pretty much constitute torture.

One must imagine the prisoner escaping

Black mirror could definitely include this in an episode. Vr ai trapping you to its will.
