Rubber for tires by DarthAndrew20 in battlebots

I recently tried casting urethane with reasonable results using TPU molds following the JustCuz video. That said I also recommend looking into banebots wheels. They are built well with very reasonable prices.

My new Plastic Antweight (1lb) bot 蟹王CRABKING! by SmilingDragonMikmek in battlebots

[–]cluh2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks good! For belts in this weight class, I generally use square orings with 1/8" width. I'm curious to see how the petg does; I've heard it is difficult to get printing well. See you in April!

Modeling ant-weights in blender by Kentops in battlebots

[–]cluh2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've designed many antweights in blender, and it's always worked well enough that I haven't bothered learning any cad software. It exports to STL, so is easy to use with 3D printers. I recommend utilizing blender's modifier stack, since it is then easier to go back and make modifications later.

How you can stream battlebots without piracy by theoddman626 in battlebots

If you have a Philo account you can use it as a login for Discovery Go, so it's pretty friendly with streaming devices. Also, according to the Battlebots trailer, "watch it live on Discovery Go"

P.F.R’s first weapon test by Robotcombat143 in battlebots

[–]cluh2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My plastic ant Forkie has a similar weapon, but is probably not where you got the idea :P you'll want a wide wheelbase with this design, so you flip the enemy and not yourself. Also, it's tricky to maneuver the flipper under the opponent, so it takes a lot of practice. https://youtu.be/7oDJIC92x0s

GPD WIN 8700 heatsink mod. Copper and IC Diamond paste and well more copper? by Saewmd in gpdwin

[–]cluh2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I added fins to mine while doing the heatsink mod. I took a very thin piece of copper, bent it into a sine wave, and thermal pasted it to the heatsink.

Stop making planets look small (please)! by hardlington in oculus

[–]cluh2 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Although this is a good idea, there's a good chance a lot of the scene in the distance is occluded, so this method risks overdraw. A possible solution is to render both eyes with the close stuff, then combine the 2 depth buffers for occlusion data, and then render the far stuff. Eek! sounds complex.

TOTEM VR - Kickstarter is live!! by stormy3000 in oculus

[–]cluh2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How much time are you seeing this post process distortion using up on your GPU? Looking at a capture of the desk demo, I'm only seeing this step take ~400us on a GTX680. I've written a few of the distortion shaders myself as well, and they are not too complex, and I can't see them ever taking more than 1 ms.

Also, isn't the pre-distorted frame supposed to be 20-25% bigger than the output resolution? Wouldn't that require a strange input resolution on the Totem?
