I wanted to see if I could make myself a better golfer by combining robotic engineering and golf. The result is a robotic club that senses your swing and corrects your shot for distance. It should be possible to correct for slice and hook with some hardware and software upgrades. It also has a cool mode where it can be any iron so no need to carry eleven clubs.

All hail our our robot overlords. I'm looking forward to gen 2 and doing more science on how good a robot really can make you.

These videos usually take 100+ hours of work and a lot of money in tools and materials. I've made a patreon if you're interested in supporting the creation of these projects: www.patreon.com/stuffmadehere

"The reason that it hadn't been working.. is because.. I had a 1 instead of a 4..." I felt that.

My favorite part is when he casually states that two engines would be required to power the hydraulic golf club

You’re incredible! The way you understand almost all facets of engineering consistently blows me away, and better yet you somehow get me to understand complex topics that I wouldn’t have began to look into otherwise. Thank you

10 hours later: so the reason this didn’t work is because the 1 was suppose to be a 4. - programming in a nutshell.

The multiple renditions of the backboard, the bat and the power club were all impressive but this is next to amazing, we might be looking at a serious future product, this would be a god send to seniors who can’t quite swing like they use to who still wanna go out for a solo 8. Good work man this things sick

Man, I'm a programmer and I have to take a step back a bit when I watch this guy sometimes. He's absolutely brilliant. Unbelievable how his brain works. Very inspiring and insightful.

wow, the amount of work that went into this! The failed attempt is really interesting too. I would also need to correct for club length and missing the ball entirely!

That was actually one of the best videos, because the stuff made here is relatively simple (compared to thee other projects), but still effective. :) LOVE IT!

Really need the follow up video to this. Also need the DIY kit I can put together. One of the coolest things I have seen built on youtube.

Recommend using rigid tubing with an accumulator for hydraulic models. Rigid tubing can also be used as the club shaft. Double walled tubing could be used to minimize the shaft profile.

Oh man, it's really nice to see you make a simple programming mistake. I just recently lost a whole Sunday to a similar problem in the code of a project, so it's nice to see someone who is currently much more skilled than me encounter similar trouble. Felt like I was losing my mind!
