5 YouTube Videos to Inspire Your Next Engineering Projecthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=example ↗

Why it worked

The post leverages a common pain point for creators (lack of ideas) and offers a solution by curating inspiring projects. The visual format of a slideshow with clear, concise text on each slide makes it easily digestible and shareable, appealing to a broad audience interested in engineering and DIY projects.

Summary

This TikTok post showcases five inspiring engineering projects from YouTube, encouraging viewers to find inspiration for their own builds. Each slide details a unique project, from a flying umbrella to a robot dog, and suggests concepts or skills viewers can incorporate into their next creation.

Original caption

Doesn't matter if you've built a project before or not, you can always take inspiration from others! After watching waaay too many cool videos online of people building random projects, like making dumb sh*t fly, or using a lot of math to transform datapoints to autonomous action. The one thing that I've always taken from them, is that there is always something you could reuse in your own project. Either if it's a sensor, or a concept. It could be anything. If you are out of ideas, want to get started or just want to watch a bunch of cool content. #engineering #robotics #coding #building #projects

5 YOUTUBE VIDEOS TO INSPIRE YOUR NEXT engineering project Flying Umbrella John built a fully autonomous umbrella that follows you around when i rains using some drone motors and a small lidar. Learn: Control Use: ToF Camera With: Blob detection To make a fully autonomous tracking system Use this concept on your next build: Upgrade an old everyday item with modern tech, because why not? CARA: Robot Dog Aaeed Musa built CARA, a quadruped robot dog using rope-based capstan drives instead of gears for zero backlash and smooth motion. BETTER THAN GEARS Work on core robotics skills: - High torque actuators - Emmersive CAD projects - Inverse kinematics - Reinforcement learning Try doing the same concept, use a more unusual practise of theory on your next build Indoor Drone Swarms Joshua made a drone swarm in his dorm for under 50$ using IR motion tracking with millimeter precision. INDOOR DRONE SWARMS Only using cheap components such as esp32's and old PS3 cameras. Project ideas: - Wifi based position tracking - IR motion tracking - Robot swarm Work with: - OpenCV - Stereo triangulation - A lot of cool math! ESP32 Array (found this gem) Autonomous Submarine Experiment with underwater robotics. In todays world everyone is pushing the bounderies on land and in the air, but few dare to go into the depths of the ocean Learn about: - Buoyancy control - Water + Electronics = ❤️? Project ideas: - Small esp submarine - Underwater FPV drone - Underwater sensor platform 1 NOT a bomb Self-Balancing Robot All you need: - IMU - Motors - PID Simple: - Cad - Components - Wiring Core part of robotics is balance. Doesn't matter if it's a Unitree G1 or a little segway robot. It still needs to move without falling over every second. The Basics of Self-Balancing Robots Perfect intermediat project! Work on the concep of an inverted pendulum, and the control system behind it.
