An automatic pool playing robot - how hard could it be? Turns out harder than I thought. It took me quite a while to work through all the difficulties of this project but when it all finally came together is so worth it. To my surprise the most interesting aspect of this project is using the cue to play real games of pool over the internet. Let me know if you think twitch plays billiards would be worthwhile...

@bena stiklers you need help with spelling & punctuation.
Destin is also a badass!
Hi you won't remember the last shot with in these walls short of I diot. it's not a waste as you never play with the players.
A buddy of mine went to a premium engineering school, and he picked his "thesis project" as a freshman to make a pool playing robot similar to this that could drive around a rail installed around the table. He was supposed to complete this by his senior year. He wanted it to be like the real life version of Deep Blue, but for pool. He quickly changed his mind after a few classes, and did something far less ambitious.

Hoi, het zal goed zijn als je de pool stok maakt die op battery werkt en een communicatie heeft met het programma via een blue toot
Something that would be neat to add as an advid pool player myself is “safety” plays. In other words if you dont have a shot... like you mention in the final match against wife made here... find a shot that leaves the cue ball somewhere your opponent won’t have a shot either. Just a thought!

I don't really need the flash drive, but I entered my email just to help you. Keep up the great work.
So all the good stuff from micro center just happens to be a million miles away. :( The dedication to the project though: thumbs up!
Hes gonna accidentally make Ultron in his basement
yup that's how every day god life
Big fan of your videos. You’re truly a genius. Keep it up 👍 💯
that blew my frickin mind! Nice work!
Make the 50 cal pool cue
day 1 make a orange or bannana peeling machine (this is a joke btw but you can do it somehow if you want)
awesome video, instant suscribe!
Wow!
Absolute genius. You should send this video as a CV to Elon Musk and your creations should play their part in the evolution of man.

U r genius
Your bot couldnt play on normal size table
Very impressive.
The whole thing is worthy of a supervillain movie plot 😂 "They bested me, so I built a giant robot to CRUSH THEIR HOPES AND ANNIHILATE ANY COMPETITION!" The irony and the amazing engineering behind this really make it shine.
Wait... Was this reuploaded?
17:15 its a spider web
I did all the steps but I can't get wife mode to work, it says I need something called "Wife", do you know what this is and how I can fix this?
cool. why you dislike this...?
I just saw a video where Efren Reyes makes some of the most insane, improbable shots. I'd like to see how many this pool stick can match. viworld.info/rock/video/jnyppYTCzKaVl5s.html
When is LPL vs your lock?

Love your channel so much. It’s really growing into something amazing.
Make a robot on a track going around the table to handle the stick, to replace the person playing. The robot could also switch between player 1 and player 2.
this is by far the coolest thing i have ever seen
Pool is cool, but have you ever thought about the fact that a piano is a hammer-activated harp?
pleaaase tell me whats the name of your work I want to work the same thing
Can you make an automatic broom? Or just a vacuum in the shape of a broom to bring sweepin in the 21 century? Elimate the need for a dustpan and put roomba outta business for good!
Can you explain how your machines work in a little bit of a simpler way? My kids like to watch this and they need a simpler description.
Your the modern day jimmy neutron!
You can also add English and topspin backspin etc. that makes a massive difference when looking ahead. A good pool player is always many moves ahead. And with every shot there is some form of spin that would help with the lay of the ball so it is perfectly in position for the next shot.
I built my computer from Microcenter too!
It’s phenomenal however as a very good pool player (if I do say so myself) I have to tell you you missed several shot possibilities on the shot possibilities. The red ball could have also gone into the far corner pocket or cross corner to the opposite pocket. That’s just on the last test.
Structural analysis jenga (and perhaps online jenga)?
your projects are always very cool. nice work:) i think that a lot of people don't know how hard it is to program everything ^^
That was a great vid. Thanks "best of youtube" for pointing it out!
Hey Shane! Do you publish your code anywhere? I'd love to take a deeper dive into how this works.
incredible

Real life Tony stark, builds whatever he wants in the basement.
Bro this guy us Einstein 2.0😳
when this guy calls people nerds thats friendly fire
He is the nerd of the nerds
Me thinking, wow he's nearly done! Realising it only a third into the video. Sudden anticipation of many failures and an annoyed designer.
What's the drawing app he is using on his pad?
Im guessing he is getting quite a lot of job offers because of these videos :)
Very smart guy! Still say i can beat his " robot stick"
This is fucking awesome!
Very nice
Try sinking the 8 ball in the break shot. If you do so, you win the game immediately.
This is sooooo Cool.. and secondly.. it makes me wonder what my kids will see when they procrastinate at my age.
Next up his gonna make robo Efren Reyes
>A lot of people will tell me it would be more efficient to just practice instead of building this whole system........ Actually, it's not... At all... By FAR. You just crammed YEARS worth of billiards practice into a few weeks worth of algorithmic programming.... Muscle memory from your fingertips to your shoulders (and beyond), shot placement, stick alignment, applying English and spin, shot selection, et. al....
Robots do work for pay. They get payed in the energy they consume because stupid humans have to pay the electricity bill they accumulate.

Can you feed it Efren's Z shot positions and see what it comes out with? viworld.info/rock/video/wm56woTPs5hk3as.html
Make the projector on your glasses
These projects are amazing and all.. but this guy needs to work with Elon musk or something to save the world ...
So when are we going to get "All technology by Senku from Dr. Stone" kind of thing?
Does you cue calculate the break off? Also does it calculate for the trajectory of other moving balls crossing paths?
Waiting for the pool trick shot robot to put the many hours of people's practice to shame
Next project is to make a team of Cricket fielding robots and maybe even a bowler. you could use a lacrosse stick on a linear actuator (Height control) to catch throw the ball. on the light towers you could mount the cameras to track the ball and also for optical navigation of the robots. your main problem is finding a cricket oval in yankee land, then again baseball is a similar game.
This is impossible great job stuff made here. Brilliant job! More love from Sri lanka.
I thought of this around 1999, cool to see it in practice 21 years later.
Anyone know what the drawing app is called ?
There is a way to calculate the z-height of two fiducial marker to get the cue inclination angle. Anyway IMU option is more accurate in this case what you implement.
“I wanna enjoy the game of pool the way it was meant to be played” 😂 mkay bud
How do I wire my whole house on one cable??!!!
Lmao!!! Meet my cuz Billy Ray tracing.
Scalpel?? ::: ummmm..yeeeeaaaahh..ooops!
i think efren has this diagram installed on his eyes
social distanced game of pool, even though you can already social distance while playing actual pool
heh, now we gotta see this guy go up against Efren " Bata " Reyes
Holy smokes. I can't even.
19:43 depends on how you use it i guess...
Remember... ITS OKAY TO SLEEP
I have no clue how hard it would be to code but it might be q good idea to add somethinv where it figures out the worst postion for the que ball to be in for the other players turn so it could hit one of your balls inand make it almost impossible for the other player to make their shot
and that why we go to college...
A challenge as requested... shallow geothermal, with a min production of 100W. I think this can be done with acetic acid,, without any inputs if the cooling element is significant enough, as it boils at a low temp. I mean, people say free energy, but no one pushes geothermal for small scale except for greenhouses. I think it can be comprised majorily of PVC and/or CPVC as acetic acid doesn't interact much. A magnetic clutch could be used to transfer the energy without releasing the gas, which (because the cooling is so bad ass) condenses to be heated again. Can add in a heat exchanger as an option to make system more productive. I suck at math tho, so I couldn't get this to work. Maybe 1 of the engineers that watch this page would be willing to take a shot?
He should make a robot that can get a perfect score on just dance.
Oh man, the QR code got me. Well played

Wow, as all others, i enjoyed this video alot. This video should be longer or break it up with several parts over weeks.
21 minutes ago I thought I was smart 🤦♂️
I hate you man coz you're a genius! Hate = admired! 😉
Does anyone know what software he uses for not taking and sketches?
I'm over 99% certain that you, Mark Rober, and Adam Savage could solve every one of the world's problems if you were locked in a room for a week together.
