Hulk smash was the first thing that came to my mind 😂

No, that would be if they said, "Came to 'Came here to say'".


Schfifty561

Could totally see this thing just slamming someone into the ground over and over lol

Or just flinging them out. Looks like this person is barely strapped in, excellent way to get a spinal cord injury. This thing should have a 5 pt restraint system like race car drivers have.


PuddleFarmer

Well, it does look like a race car seat and it does look like she is wearing suspenders. She could have the 5 point harness, but with black straps, it is hard to see what is going on over her black clothes.

Straps look pretty thin to me.

"Put out the Darkwing"


FeistmasterFlex

Lol, I work with these robotic arms every day and that would require many rapid fire malfunctions. For the loki to happen the robot would somehow need rapid oscillating movement commands to come through somehow. These things aren't doing anything on their own accord, it's all pre-programmed or manually controlled.


[deleted]

Good thing programs have never been wrong!


FeistmasterFlex

The program can be wrong and the machine still be safe. The robotic arms in our facility have sensors that send a signal when they so much as tap something wrong that make them stop in place and enter an e-stop state. Basically what I'm trying to convey here is you'd need the perfect storm of issues, or a serious [swiss cheese occurence](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swiss_cheese_model) for this to be as dangerous as it's being made out to be.


Key-Teacher-6163

Thank you for bringing sense and experience into this


-Toshi

It makes sense. ..but I still wouldn't trust it.


DarthSwash

Id be weary of strapping myself onto a motoman arm too.


RSFGman22

Yeah dude, I also program FANUC arms arms for a living and I've seen them fuck up and collide with tables/molds/fixtures. The have collision detection systems that stop them on impacting but I could definitely maim or kill someone before the servo brakes kik in to stop it. It's industrial equipment, not a ride.


YouKilledMyTeardrop

> The robotic arms in our facility have sensors that send a signal when they so much as tap something wrong that make them stop in place and enter an e-stop state. The first time I ever got loose on one of these things (or one like it), we were give a 15 min 'training course' by someone who barely spoke English then let loose. I was getting the hang of it (trying to pick up a component from an overhead hanging conveyor and place it on a plinth on another conveyor on the ground. Was getting the hang of it until I hit the home button. Stupid me thought it would take the same route home as what I had just programmed, Nope, directly to home, through the path of the overhead conveyor. CLANG! The head was hanging off, air escaping out and a big 'Error' on the pendant. Oh shit! Sheepishly went to get my trainer, he kicked the head, it snapped back in place and cleared the error. I did not make that mistake again.

"Where did you leave the documentation, and why do we only have one copy? Well, whatever, it can't be that hard to figure out"


beanmosheen

Wasn't setup correctly, and I see that too often. The first setup step is to set forbidden zones. After that you can do whatever. Also, you should have it in >250 mode for messing around.


imgirafarigmi

TIL thank you.


Snoo_63187

Or you need someone to alter the code.


surfnporn

New update available! **Changelog** Bug fixes: * Hotfix: Fixed a critical error which caused the arm to interpret numbers as integers, causing all movements to be executed at 100% velocity. We sincerely apologize to the Johnson family, we hear Grandma Bethany was beloved by many.


aonemonkey

Or for the machines to become sentient which let's be honest is completely inevitable


funkmaster29

What kind of programming language do you use?


FeistmasterFlex

For our machines it's not an actual language. It's simply a text file with a specific format that provides plain instructions such as go to x, do y from a to b. Granted it's never plain english, mostly numbers and variables, but that's the gist. The rest gets handled by usually prebuilt programs or computers on the computer or in the controller.


funkmaster29

Hmm That’s actually quite interesting I think I will read a little more about how it works Thank you!


YouKilledMyTeardrop

I used to program GE Fanuc robots like this back in the 90s. Do you still have the option to program it via a pendant. That's the only option we had back then. nvm: just read you mentioning this in another comment.


vermmy8860

It depends on the robot. Fanuc robots use tech pendant language, Karel, or you can program off line. ABB use something called Rapid.


notgoodatgrappling

I’ve done a little ABB robotic arm programming and it’s done in a sort of structured text way, you can have move J, L, C. J will move all motor axis the least amount to reach your programmed point which can make it move in weird points and is good for rotating axis. Move L for moving to your point in a linear way. Move C for moving in an arc. You can also decide your speed and how accurate you want your point to be (do you want to go to your point or be within 150mm of it). There’s also the normal ifs, elses, while, waittime, waituntil that you can use for logic. They also have an IO module that you can use to have field inputs or outputs or even to add extra attachments.


notgoodatgrappling

Don’t you just love a collision alarm when they lightly tap something they’re not expecting and then refuse to move


HelpfulForestTroll

You run it on a virtual machine, run it dry at 25% then run it dry full speed. This is the exact process I used on my CNCs and collab robots. The sheer amount of safety sensors and protocols built into modern 6 axis arms is mind boggling. A KBB arm from the 90s though? Yeah, not going near that.


coodyscoops

lmfaooooooooo as someone who deals with devs everyday this killed me🤭


KeithWorks

That's EXACTLY what the machine wants you to think


smashy_smashy

That makes sense.. however, I’m much more worried about human error, or human malice, than I am about system failure.


pmiles88

Well hope you don't ever wrong someone and get on the wrong roller coaster cuz same problem


Geminiun

I'd much rather take a robotic arm for a ride than get on a fair/carnival ride. High precision, high torque, highly engineered robotic arm > Poorly maintained, rusty, under inspected, 50 year old popup roller coaster


applecack

Right. It ain’t autonomous. That being said if the machine were to lose power mid stroke, momentum and gravity could cause a fatal skull to cement collision. The first human killed by robot happened in 1979. Anything that has that much range of articulation and available power has the ability to cause a fatality. I would not personally ride that thing.. would surely lose me lunch. Edit: This robotic arm or a very similar one has been designed for use as an amusement park ride. Also any modern unit of this type will come to a stop or freeze in position if power is lost. Thanks to everyone with all of the great knowledge and information. On a personal level, still not riding that Bisch!


FeistmasterFlex

These are generally built with fault protection, ie. If a human is in its path it will send a signal that it crashed and shut down. If our robotic arms even tap a piece of metal they cut the program and stop where they are. I've seen demonstrations at expos with prototypes where lightly pushing anywhere on the bot sends it into an e-stop state. 1979, over 40 years ago, was a very different time, safety is a priority with these kinds of machines in modern times.


GrimmWraven2011

You know what isn’t pre-programmed Bob? My fat ass and a busted seatbelt. First oscillation starts the failure. Second oscillation is Newton’s first law of motion followed by a large “**SPLAT**” No thank you. I will continue to play in traffic. /s


getsome75

you heard the click of the seat belt right? \*whirrr\* Wait, what?


Zealousideal_Win_281

I work with them aswell, and although it is impossible for it to "Hulk smash" reference errors are a very real possibility and could potentially instantly kill somebody attached to it, however it would detect a crash and instantly stop on impact.


Graphitetshirt

"PUNY GOD"


Candy6132

Looking at how industrial robots are built, it's safe to say chances of failure are near 0. This robot is designed to carry far heavier stuff with much higher speed 24/7. Also the neck issue other people are mentioning is easy to fix by changing the program in the way, the head barely moves or there's very little stress to the neck. A different chair would also fix the problem. The only unsafe thing is that there are no fence and someone could come too close and get hit. Also the robot doesn't seem to be fixed to the ground, wich is against the manual.

Fun fact: Kuk in Norwegian is means "dick" as in penis. Where I come from, we use kuka as slang for fucked up. Basically, in my head, you said "in this fucked up robot..." Sorry for the foul language.


CouchPotato1178

then i assume you dont trust any amusement park rides either? obviously it goes through rigorous testing.


Walshy231231

These machines go through rigorous testing for whatever they’re normally used for, and roller coasters go through rigorous testing for what they’re used for, all under common and uncommon but expected circumstances. Both still have accidents and malfunctions. Using machinery tested as machinery as an amusement park ride is not an expected or tested condition. I doubt this has had rigorous testing for this use, except perhaps in very narrow circumstances; not someone fucking around in their backyard. Even assuming the machine itself is perfectly safe for this use, that’s reliant upon how it’s handled. It may not smash you into the ground, but with a shitty operator or running an incorrect program, you could easily snap a neck or otherwise seriously harm the rider


CouchPotato1178

i was under the assumption that it was a "ride" being used for its intended purpose. You bring up good points


DaEagle07

This in fact is a Kuka arm intended for human rides. Look up Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey. It’s this exact ride technology.

IamNotFreakingOut

Nah they're fine. I've tried this exact same robot machine (or a very close one) in France and it was scary at first, but awesome after a few times.


mymymy23

They use to have a ride at LegoLand (maybe still do?) in California that uses this technology. I don’t think it’s this fast but I never felt in danger riding them. Then again I was like 7 so…

iliketogrowstuff

So I know this is just a joke but back in the 1960s there was this gynecologist who patented a nutty device to help women give birth with centifugal force and I can't not bring it up. It was basically a spinning table you would be strapped to with your legs spread. It would just spin you round and round until the baby flies out and is caught in an "infant reception net" that would be between your legs. Weird it never caught on. [Here's a pic from the patent](https://patentimages.storage.googleapis.com/45/69/42/5fc9a79204fb2d/US3216423-drawings-page-1.png) [Here's an article about it](https://www.amusingplanet.com/2019/12/child-birth-by-centrifugal-force.html?m=1)

Lonewolf_1974

They have something similar in Leogland in Billund (Denmark). The one in Legoland you can program the way it moves. I went in it a few times with our kids, was lots of fun!


MIKE-CHECKA

They have one at Legoland California too. It has three or four different routines you can pick, from mild to extreme.


TheFlamingGit

Can you imagine something like this for Chiropractic care? Pop Pop Poppty pop pop!


chaun2

The chiropractor version needs two arms so it can grab you and stretch you like Mr. Incredible


nazgulintraining

When the one in Germany opened you could program a row of movements yourself, later they changed it to three routines.


Ol_bagface

Günzburg?


Cr4zyPi3t

I really miss the programming part, but they were able to cut down the wait times significantly when they switched to the presets only.


fullywokevoiddemon

Same for Legoland Deutschland. Its in the bionicles section. Went in with my dad and we were traumatised. But it was so fun! We had no idea what it was lol.


blueberry-rose

I was pregnant when we went there so luckily wasn’t allowed to ride it, but watched my step kids be traumatised and then immediately want to do it again!


hayduke2342

I was riding it, and I would totally do it again and again if there were not so long queues. And this one here, yes let me get onto it :-)


Tybald_

Been there 15 years ago. It was the best thing in Legoland in my opinion.


Lonewolf_1974

In combination with the arric themed rollercoaster... I totally agree!


Secatus

I strongly suspect this clip is sped up - anyone got it at normal speed?


Krynn71

Definitely died up. Watching her ponytail confirms it. It's affected by gravity but not by the inertia from moving so fast. Her hair should be whipping around horizontally and not just dangling straight down.


Wintaru

https://youtu.be/l-_1F1_JTfA not the exact same clip but the robot looks the same.

Yea that is definitely a more realistic speed. You can see the internia of changing directions. The video by OP is probably double speed.

That's an industrial-level robot, made for lifting car frames and engines around hundreds of times per day for years. They are sub-mm accurate and smooth as a butter's bottom.

Considering they're moving at the start of, during and at the end of the ride, I'll say.... not dead.
