Jesus, the description of the technology sounds amazing. I am blown away at how much ingenuity was required to make this.


sort by: page size:

This is pretty incredible engineering feat. Something so simple we use has so much underlying efforts and complexity.

Any details on the tech? Looks amazing!

As someone who has been deeply interested in this type of manufacturing technology for ages, my jaw is on the floor. Kudos to the person that made this. I'm so impressed.

The amount of real engineering that must have gone into a system like this is incredible. They didn't have the benefit of being able to iterate on an existing technology -> this is real hacking.

Having worked on the streets dataset for a FAANG, I'm blown away at the ingenuity here.


Can we get any details about the tech used to build this?

The engineering that went into this is insane

Yeah, there's some pretty whizzy technology involved in the encapsulation process.

This is such an impressive engineering achievement. As someone who designs electronics and builds mechanical devices, I find this project spectacularly impressive!

is anyone else surprised he was able to build a prototype in two weeks? what technology did it use?

Such an amazing set of engineers jacking away at this. What awesome work they’re doing.

Thanks! Yes, it's amazing what the designers could do with the technology that was available. It's the sort of device that you would think couldn't possibly work, especially when it is experiencing the vibration and forces of a supersonic plane

I'm really curious about the processes used to make these. Part of it is because it uses huge features, of course, but I wonder if there are other things to it such as the materials and the encapsulation.

I find it amazing that they managed to design and build all this in the 1970s when computers were only in their infancy and SDR was complete science-fiction.

This is an amazing feat of human ingenuity.

Wow!

That machine is incredible.

I can't begin to imagine the amount of work it took to design and buuld sonething like that.

Also, the video is very well produced.


That's probably like one of the coolest purpose built machine I've ever seen. In my head I originally thought they did it by hand, lol.

How were the able to achieve this technologically?

What an amazing feat of engineering.


Wow that is cool, how did they do it? Did they use a machine similar to that in the article?

This looks technically impressive ...
