As a former Disney Imagineer & current archivist with the Walt Disney Archives in Anaheim, I am so happy that my former cast members gave YOU the opportunity to test these all out! I worked with Lanny for a 3 month period in mid 2018 doing some research on articulating movement for this in a strict alpha build & cannot believe the evolution of where it is now! Congrats Marques - I couldn’t think of a more deserving person to come to our lab 💜

These little robots have the same expressions as animated characters! Mad props to the engineers that built and programmed these. My mind is blown that this is even possible already.

We need to get another episode where you interview Lanny! I'm sure Disney was pretty strict on who gets to talk and say what, but I want to hear from Lanny.

I am happy he talked about the eyes and inner ear. I've tried to explain it to people who talk about VR sickness and don't understand it. It's the same reason why you can get seasick (along with the rolling). You can earn your VR/Sea legs, by just sticking with it and your brain will build new pathways to make it okay.

Very interesting. It’s louder than I expected. Great idea. It occurs to me that the radial velocity on the edge of the disc makes it such that there is a slipping friction thing happening.

Great video!! Thank you for sharing!!

A while back I worked on a VR project (very experimental) called Redirected Walking... The idea behind it was that if you stood in an empty field with a tree and were asked to walk towards that tree, you could do it. But if you were blindfolded, there was no way. So we would take advantage of that in VR and "redirect" in the direction that we wanted you to go (usually towards the center of the room). It was proven that in an area the size of a school gymnasium, you could "fool" someone into thinking that they were walking indefinitely in a straight line by showing them visual that they were walking straight but actually making them curve around the physical space. We did a weird application where we had enemies that would spawn in specific places to get the player to look in different directions to adjust where we wanted them to look/feel like they were. This sounds very much like something that would help this technology :)

@roxasthegreek

9 күн бұрын

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.

@@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.

The HoloTile treadmill is mind-blowing, and it's intriguing to envision its potential in VR.

this is by the coolest tech to come out in a long while. Vision Pros were neat, but is nothing compared to this because this has SO many applications for the future. I can't wait for the future to have this someday :D

That looked awesome

I am so thrilled you came to visit and let us show off just SOME of the cool things in the works. Stay tuned for more. "There's a great big beautiful tomorrow~~"

This is the next step to creating the perfect VR setup in one’s home.

@@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.

​@@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

I can't be the only one that sees crazy potential for this beyond VR and theme parks. Imagine a woodworking shop where you have a bunch of machines and carts scattered around the entire shop, but instead of having to pick up all this stuff to move it, you just use the force. That's just one application, I could see this being useful in a number of other places

One of the things I also would use my tech influence to see... Really nice 💪

A DLP-ish array of rotating surfaces! It's brilliant!

Wow, Lanny Smoot seems like a bonafide genius! Really excited to see where this tech can go.

I watch a lot of VR stuff and this is by far the best omni-directional treadmill i’ve seen

its great because like VR there is not gonna be only one type/company that try this, there is gonna be multiples companies developing this tecnology for sure in the future not only disney, not only USA.

Lanny Smoot is the GOAT. So much greatness from this one man. 🙇

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.

Wonderful project

Brilliant!

That floor is remarkable!! I've been dying to understand how it works since its debut!

Little droid looks more human then most of the people nowadays. Imagine them little droids wandering around the Theme park and then start to interact with some little kid. This must be so surreal and a situation they probably never forget. The movement looks so damn "natural" and "alive". Stunning.

It's so awesome that we get to see the early stages of this because we all can see the absolute potential.

i did a similar diy project a couple of years ago with marbles on a 3d printed floor, though the idea was you would be strapped in place and the marbles would just give a sensory readout to be used in vr. doing it like this looks really cool though

This was the best review of that treadmill! Hearing the sound, seeing it working with a "not supposed" vr set, seeing someone training doing it. Best review.

There's going to be some seriously fit gamers in our future with this tech haha

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

I worked with an omnidirectional treadmill setup back in 2013 and it used multiple treadmills (based on rotating rolls instead of a normal treadmill) in a circular setup (like a pizza). the middle piece was a small static circle as a point of rest. The speed would increase based on the distance to the middle point combined with current speed calculations and projections. Back than we used oculus1 dk and another lesser know prototype of a different company. It was quite an immersion. However walking along the outer edge never felt convincing since it pulled you sideways to get you back to the middle. I can see this design making use of the straight line illusion more gradually (with multiple angles) and it is less prominently moving you to the "side"

love your videos man
