Very cool! Using EEG (brain electric signals) combined with an AI is more or less what is being done by Neuralink. EMG (muscle electric signals) is also being used for moving prosthetics. Seeing these topics explored here is exciting! I can't wait for what's next.

This wouldn't just benefit people with disability, but also people working with heavy machinery. As they could use a much stronger and buffed version of this arm for lifting heavy stuff or working in un-survivable environments(such as deep sea and space).

Using Quaternions and spatial rotation will address your gimbal lock (where the axis rotations get confused when aligned with another axis when moved)

@paul_vantieghem

Rotation matrices can also avoid the numerical singularities which we experience as gimbal lock, and they are much easier to understand so maybe he could start with that. The only downside is that rotation matrices carry 9 numbers instead of 4 for quaternions.

@daveabittner

The problem is, his arm is quite literally a physical gimbal. It's a limitation of the anatomy to an extent, and as a result (if you want something that is attached to your arms) you will have to duplicate sensors I believe in different orientations.

James: *making an exoskeleton* CIA: "Interesting"

Thank you _so much_ for this - been working on a conceptually identical project for a few years now (but on the tensorflow/cuda level and non-public) and this honestly was a huge asset to those works. Really appreciate the upload - you may have just supercharged a bunch of efforts to make the concept closer to a deployable reality thanks to a lot of the ideas you have introduced here. All the best!

This is pretty impressive for a few minutes' training on a microcontroller with limited sensors. I wonder what it could do with something like an Xsens mocap suit worn for a few days and trained on a powerful GPU.

Great video again, please keep up the work as it's so interesting to watch the progression while you piece all the components together. Thank you.

I really hope you continue this project! It could end up helping a lot of people.

You could consider Deep Reinforcement Learning with added imitation learning in the reward function. PPO and DDPG are some solid options if you are considering. For my thesis I'm working on the control of an active transfemoral prosthesis during normal walking using DRL.

Dam he works quick I've been working on this exact same project for 2 years. Definitely gonna take some stuff from this video.

Very cool. I'm really impressed with the results you got! You are a super skilled individual.

It's amazing to see that 3D printing protheses at home becomes consistently easier.

Awesome! loving this project already. Also congrats on 1 Mil

Congrats on 1 million James, plz make video on your 3d modeling

This is really cool, can’t wait to watch what you are doing next.

Would love to see an open source build for an assisted walking device, exoskeleton. Possibly for older people with walking troubles. Thanks for your great content!

phenomenal, hoping to see more!

Thank you so very much for sharing your process and results. I have been thinking of working on a similar concept, but utilising fpv quad flight controller boards, as they work on all axis' in a very small form factor. They could be used to record the data of one limb, and also to output the data to manually control a prosthetic. The flight controllers are small enough to attach just below each point of articulation on the "learning" limb. Combined with your outlined machine learning, they should then be able to output motion commands to result in a more natural movement style.

Thank you so much James, may god bless you and your family, and youtube.

IMUs are so fiddly to get working if you want anything more complicated than "did the sensor tip." Have you looked at the 9 axis versions with magnetometers? You might be able to filter out the roll/pitch confusion. I'd love to see a whole series making a full IMU digital motion capture suit if you wanted to make one.

1 Million subs! I've been watching you since your The RPF days. Congratulations!

congratulations for 1 million subs , mr james! i hope your channel grows even more

This is awesome! Great start!

Cool! Carry on with the useful robot project too

This plus the muscle monitors could be amazingly unique. Not only would you have accurate motor controls, but unique situation awareness relating strength of signal and force feedback. This would allow someone the ability to differentiate between crushing a brick and shaking a hand whereas currently gripping is much more of an on off signal.

Awesome work, James!

You’re my favorite kind of nerd !!!!!!! Love your stuff bubba

After thinking about this for a while, I realized that you had already designed a pretty good arm concept for what you're trying to do. Remember the Performance Robots? They had shoulders with a good range of motion, elbows, forearms that rotate and grippers. Anyway, it just seems like those arms would have the range of motion to adhere more consistently to the trained behavior.

Functionality aside, this is the best looking stuff you have designed, imo. Sleeker and seems even more refined. Great work and presentation, as allways !

Very cool to see it gone into

You should definitely make a choreographed slow motion fight. Have sensors on one arm and set the robot arm to react to those sensors. Then make the outputs be motions that would block slow punches and attacks. That would look really cool.

Wow Just Amazing!

much excitement for this series

Congratulations on the 1 million subscribers 👏👏👏

This is fascinating! I'm sure Ogma can open a lot of possibilities for future projects but I wonder if you could use it to improve the efficiency of past projects like OpenDog and/or one of your Walking Robots (which I always like to see)!

Great experiment.

Hey, I like the videos were you give conceptual knowledge in deep it helps me a lot please do these in depth video explaining telling about each and every step in detail no matter how long is the video I like watching long videos

Awesome upload

Great project as always! I was wonder if pose detection would have been easier than manually encoding the position of the arms, legs for training and inference.

James, you could give the IMU BNO080 a try. It has internal processing that gives quaternions which are highly useful to find global orientation. That will reduce the processing cost and allow you to sample data at a higher rate, also solving your vertical orientation problem. Amazing video!

This is so cool! can't wait to see what you do with brain signals or something.

Great stuff!

Good start.

Now to scale it up, add the rest of the limbs, an omni treadmill, and make a mech. Can use the learning as a feedback for a 'fly by wire' controller, even if you have all your limbs. Theoretically if it can predict your movements, it would react quicker than a direct 1:1 controller, with enough training.

Divide up arm to forearm, elbow, upper arm, shoulder. They can then be combined for the whole movement. Same done for legs and other body parts.

You should wear a camera on the head and gloves with markes to train a hand that picks up various shaped objects. You could add the same markes on the robotic arm and having it mimicing your gestures based on the object you want to grab.

yes james, this is what I've been talking about! you can 3D print a Dexter's Laboratory exosuit if you throw in some aluminum extrusion. just make opendog longer and you're done!
