What if you don't want to go to the bathroom in the dark? "Let the bedside lamp learn to walk with you." Look at the six flexible legs "KaKa", it is not a problem to lead the way and turn. Is there a traffic jam ahead? It doesn't matter. It will sit where it is. Don't tell me. This is a real thing
It turned out that a little it brother (twitter:lanius) of neon country specially invented a walkable bedside lamp in order to make his two daughters go to the bathroom at midnight no longer afraid .
In terms of function, it can really light up the dark road to the toilet in the middle of the night.
But I'm afraid I can't agree with you if you say "don't be afraid"
No, in the comment area, the netizens' messages are all aunt sauce's:
- when I go to the bathroom in the middle of the night, I will be scared by it first.
- thank you. I lost sleep.
- I'm not afraid anymore. Maybe I'm going straight to the past.
Some people instantly think of the human face spider of the ghost killing blade, the monster Fang Wen in the illusory warrior, and so on
There are even people who think of bacteriophages.
In this little brother's home, it is not only the bedside lamp that runs everywhere. His toy storage basket, footstool, mobile phone charger and pillow also have "long legs".
If you start these gadgets at the same time... The picture is a little unthinkable!
3D printing self-made mechanical leg
Before this caused the onlookers, in fact, my brother already had a fire project——
Walking toy storage basket.
At that time, the project attracted nearly 20000 likes on twitter.
From the aspect of appearance, compared with the walking bedside lamp, only the objects on the mechanical legs have been replaced, and the core parts have not been greatly changed.
This set of mechanical legs is not a purchased finished set, but is completely self-made by my brother after 3D CAD modeling and 3D printing.
After giving commands such as "slow forward" and "quick turn" to the robot leg, it can automatically generate an appropriate walking mode.
For example, when it interacts with older children, it moves quickly and boldly.
When interacting with children, they will switch to the small step mode and move more carefully.
Brother said that although this adjustment is still based on the remote control, the robot leg can change its gait according to the required moving speed.
It took him only 3 or 4 days to make the walking toy basket.
He said that this was because he had made many similar small transformations before, and the basic tools and framework were complete, so it was fast.
When he first tried this magic reform, it took him about half a year to model and test, and the cost was about 100000 yen (about 5000 yuan).
The robot leg has also undergone several iterations. In the initial version, there are only four legs, and the movement mode is also cumbersome.
In contrast, the movement mode of the robot leg now further simulates the situation when a creature walks.
This is also one of the original intentions of my brother to play this series of magic changes, which is to make mechanical objects look as if they have life.
So far, my brother's family has more than a dozen such long legged small furniture.
Including but not limited to routers, pillows, mobile phone chargers, footstools, tissue boxes, hair dryers, etc.
In addition, he has also tried pet robots and other "brain opening" inventions.
For example, make the seasoning automatically move to the side of the pot.
Netizen: I choose to wet the bed
In a word, the Japanese brother's invention always reveals a "useful but not completely useful" atmosphere.
Take the feasible bedside lamp that is on fire this time. Perhaps it was originally designed for children, so it is relatively slow in moving speed.
Some netizens roast that they would suffocate if they followed it in the middle of the night.
However, some people immediately added:
- if this thing crawls crazily, it will be even worse
However, my two daughters are very happy with these gadgets.
At least, they are now in love with toy storage.
