LEGO NXT GT-Hi with Electronic Stability Control

[juantrieste]

Cool!! Nice idea, congratulations

[themxtiger]

holy crap you guys are gay watching lego on youtube lololol

[DaUalldayx3]

@themxtiger then why you here dumbass

[M5000thesdgversion]

Very nice! Great control. I would love to see this somehow implemented onto a fast lego RC car.

[kirbymaster555]

So... Damn.... Slick.

[TimeForRave]

Wow, that's seriously impressive! 

[MysteriosNXT]

Awsome! (*_*)

[mindstormsuser]

nice wheels

[mindstormsuser]

I wonder why it has all these hi-tech stuff

[thelizard50]

0:07 it looks like you have a differential for the steering.... if yes explain!

[RhodderzX]

Sweet also

Type gift in front of youtube

[TheDJDanny16]

It is called ESP(electronic Stabilitation Programm) not ESC

[celuler22]

@TheDJDanny16 the c is control differnt companys differnt name

[williboooooy]

I don't get it. what does it do

[TijlJuDoKa]

@williboooooy driving

[Imbackmrmotherfucker]

how much this "toy"? lol

[btvlogity]

Is that my dad?

[88dietrish]

I'm doing something like that, but with reinforcement learning. When I finnish my work I will show.

God job

[wardog3d]

Yea... but does it have crumple zones is the question!

[gamerdude859]

where did you get the wheels

[bscaffold]

Some stupid people think that it avoids the book. NO, IT DOESN'T. Stability control means that the car won't spin around or burnout.

[trlade]

I don't get it. It turns when passing the white line?

[snackajack117]

it avoids the book.

[LordDecapo]

no hes waiting till that line then it turns.. the stability control makes the car turn sharper at higher speeds by slowign or breaking some wheels, accelerateing others, and the last wheels r put in neutral.. this keeps the cars momentum evently dispersed. if a car turns realy fast to the rigth, the back end on a front wheel drive car will spin around and cause u to lose control if ur inexperianced. stability control will slow ur car a bit and alpy break on the wheels opisite the way ur spining

[hcgzz99]

@trlade no, it turns because the ultrasonic sensor sees an object on the robot path so it alerts the intellingent brick and activates the motor controling the steering of the car

[Degr8n8]

It has all these safety features, but no brakes. lol.

[AirSoftBoy99]

no external brakes but the brakes are inside the motors. Almost makes up for the stupid shape of the servo motor when paired with built in rotation sensors

[burn2theground]

@Degr8n8 were lucky its not toyota "keep moving forward"

[ChuffChuffWoo]

@Degr8n8 No Prius jokes please...! ;-))

[Phillie103]

@Degr8n8 you got back wards.... but that may be useless..

[Sculge]

@Degr8n8 The motors are geared and encoded, they ARE the brakes!

[spectrex1]

With ESC (well ABS) the aim is to allow the car to manoeuvre around obstacles in the event that the car brakes suddenly. Without ESC, the wheels are more prone to skidding, reducing the braking force substantially and meaning you can't steer at all.

The smooth wheels are to demonstrate the ABS more effectively here. With rubber tyres you'd never get skidding anyway so it would be useless to show ABS working.

[elvee88]

@spectrex1 ABS and ESC are not the same thing....

[BurnboyDj22]

U should make the wheels rubber. It would work better and look cooler

[koenderskees]

i think you programmed it to first go to the left and then to the right wen it sees a white line.

[packrat4]

FUCKING LEGIT

[TIM1TULIAG]

cool

[sharingan123mangekyo]

what is the number of the portal that i put the compass, colour and speed sensor?

[asdert458]

What wheels u use?

[Kaissa64]

I have noted that the wheels aren't rubberised. I guess that is to allow it to drift. Would it have the same respond time it was running on a rug or carpet.

[swishpan]

nice and fast response. How do you make it turn the right way?
