that's 3d printed titanium btw and it's draping like fabric 3D printed lattice so fine it moves like cloth but carries aerospace loads this structure makes it flexible without sacrificing that strength. when you control geometry at this scale, material properties stop being fixed you design the behavior, not just the shape this isn't just aerospace it's what manufacturing looks like when the printer becomes precise enough to challenge what a material is supposed to do

a humanoid robotics engineer probably understands muscle mechanics better than most med students because they had to rebuild it from scratch btw muscles only pull and never push every pushing motion you've ever made? a pull from the opposite side your arm extends because the tricep pulls the forearm back in reality you've never actually pushed anything in your life the entire body is a tension network cables, attachment points, geometry doing the rest no pistons no compression just opposing pulls timed perfectly, we spent decades building rigid actuators trying to replicate this then tendon-driven robotics came along and finally admitted what biology already knew we're a species of pullers who spent centuries convinced we push things aren’t always how they might appear

only the joint venture of Bell and Boeing can possibly pull off this piece of mad engineerin

tesla's optimus v3 hand patent just dropped → tendon driven → actuators in the forearm → cables routed through the wrist like human anatomy → 4 degrees of freedom per finger and 2 in the wrist advanced cable routing to minimize friction and crosstalk during movement they're not building a gripper instead rebuilding the human hand with motors and cables instead of muscle and tendon musk called “the hand the hardest engineering problem in optimus” afterall nature has perfected it and we can inherit the knowledge from it these patent shows why: dexterity requires mimicking biology not replacing it with servos

there isnt a Claude for hardware that should give you some clarity

ASTORINO is a 6-axis robot built for education not industry -3D printed -easy to repair -programmable in AS-language designed so students can learn by breaking it without consequence most educational robots are -expensive -fragile -dumbeddown toys this one assumes students will make mistakes and builds around that reality Kawasaki Robotics

do whatever you must but get yourself a 3d printer and literally print your ideas💡
