New channel is here youtube.com/@alexlabresearches
will subscribe for sure bro!
oh I'm all over this
I just realized that you have yet to have a ai helper like tony did, would you suggest using *chat gpt* to help with the making of the suit or a aspect of it? Could you make a entire separate video on whether to make a *ai* using chat gpt for the helping of the suit?
@@justicebrown1077 oh yeah, that's right! And with the talk of composites, the channel *tech ingredients* made one on*flash graphene*. Maybe it can be used from even stronger composite armor?
@marz.6102 I totally agree? Tech ingredients shows with testing that adding flash graphene makes the epoxy way stronger while staying light.
Who come here directly from Instagram?
Me and you
yep
Here
hiya newbies, welcome to the ride😅😮
Me 😂
Iron Man is an engineering challenge because of how thin the suit is, and I love it! It really pushes engineering.
Nanotechnology can solve the problem with a budget of 1 billion dollars.
@@DIVERZE. the military of any country will never outsource nano technologies to civilian or anyone not working directly under supervision. I would know.
@@nobodydoesanything381 Nobody needs your knowledge.
Actually it suppose to be few inchs thick because it full of mechanical magic like human muscle
@@nobodydoesanything381 Lol 10 years ago I'd have agreed with you, but as a student of science and engneering, you actually sound silly now, for too many reasons to list, and none of the reasons you'd think.
This is insane. Dude is jacked, knows engineering, 3d modelling, electronics, material science, programming, casting stuff, video production, video editing, acting, directing, just how?
Because he’s Russian
@@lewisnunn2093 how thats why, those guys are built different
dont forget the quality of his art in that sketchbook as well!
Dude is technical and creative minded.
@@johnvonmartin7501 basically using both sides of his brain so double the brain power. Insane
Thanks for being an inspiration to engineers all around the world :)
Dude, you're my hero and I want to become an engineer like you when I grow up. How did you learn to get that good at drawing and sketching the designs for your products?
My biggest tip is to accept that what you make won't be perfect, and do it anyways. Perfection is a lie and it is the antithesis to getting stuff done.
Best way to get better at drawing is to draw a lot, also following videos on KZhead can help speed up the process of learning and let you know what parts you should focus on
@@Skrunkleosteus As a perfectionist and an Artist I can 100% confirm this 😂
I would say he draws all the straight lines going towards him, it helps me alot doing that instead of outward.
Learning to draw just takes time and practice. I've been doing it since I was seven. I plan to build a suit of my own design, but mine will be using..."fringe" technology.
This guy is probably one of the most underrated youtube creators ever! I Love Alex lab!
when i saw the basics of composite series i was already wondering why it gained so much less traction because the quality of each ep was amazing, and i really enjoyed they way you went about testing and selecting the preferred methods! I hope the way you chose for the second channel will work out for you.
So sick. Cant wait to see the finished product!!
The things that this guy does are just incredible and it goes seriously underrated because most people just don't understand how much time/effort true engineering development takes. He has had to invent something completely unique to solve problems in nearly all technical aspects of this suit that have never been done before.
Now we need to get a good way to DIY some dielectric actuators (basically artificial muscles that contract and expand with electricity for those that haven't seen those yet) that uses piezoelectric sensors to activate them, and get them incorporated into your exosuit. Then we're cooking with oil! Also, I'm now subscribed to your longer video channel! Thank you for letting us all know about it
He has another video that covers doing just that lol
@@Skaadi89 He has pneumatic muscles, not a polymer that reactives to electrical signals and small mechanical components that can create electrical signals. What I suggested is self contained and needs nothing from the outside.
You are correct I went back and looked again after I posted that was about to make a correction lol
Don't these heat up by the current through them?
@@kassiog.6595 not that I am aware of, but I also haven't seen all the reports on them yet, so I cannot say for certain. Even then, I'm sure a simple heat sink system would help that issue, and if cooling is built-in then there hopefully wouldn't be a concern with it.
What a hero man! Congratulations on doing such a big, inspiring and insanely hard project on your own. Keep up the good work man!
Your Iron Man journey has been a thrill ride to watch, even the technical videos! Taking the time to perfect this material was definitely worth it, and I can't wait to see where you go next!!
Man, I genuinely don't think I've ever seen anyone as talented or skilled as you, so many different skills at incredibly high levels, Huge inspiration to me and many many others, cant believe this is all done at home, alone through trial and error and that you're sharing all of this for free and in such a professional manner.
A series about non-newtonian armor would be cool, D3O, Electrorheological fluids, etc.
D30 is a wonderful idea for flexible armor, especially in vulnerable areas like joints.
Yeah, that seems like a really cool idea, imagine having a shirt that turns solid on impact or something.
I feel like a full exposed carbon iron man suit would look really damn cool.
Incredible esthetic if someone pulled that off!
dude's like 35% done, imagine his progress after 10 years💀💀💀
"Today i will show you how to build a hydrogen powered jetpack in your garage"
I'm sad i didn't see those composite videos until now. Now I have more lab content. Yay!
This channel is one of the most underrated I've ever seen.
I love your hard work and all the passion you put into your projects, thank you for everything. Keep it up! I'm in it for the long haul! Can't wait to see when you fly on your own!
Love your work! What you do has inspired me for a long time. I have worked as a mechanical engineer and electrical engineer for the last 9 years and spend pretty much all my free time on related projects. I have struggled with burnout at times and I can sometime loose sight of why I do what I do. Your videos remind and inspire me to push through. I offer you a sincere debt of gratitude, All the extra effort you do to share your hard work means more than you know to some people. Thank you.
You are very dedicated in building the Iron Man suit. Hats off to you.
You have the most realistic and functional Iron Man suit on youtube
Amazing work man! I love how you really push to come up with new solutions instead of simply using what already exists. This will likely result in a much better end product. I look forward to your next video as always :)
Im glad for you and the progress you've made
Dude this is lit! And we get more research videos!? Yaaas. I find it all fascinating. I'll never build it myself but watching this new technological application process has been a journey and I'm thankful that you've shared it with us!
That easter egg on the teleprompter...nice touch! "In fact, I'm already being kept here by force, working for food. I already beat you in every role."
just want to say thank you! im 14 now and you have been my main inspiration to get started with engeneering and making. i made my fist repulsor 1 year ago and a few months ago i built my first well working hho generator. Thank you!
Wow bravo 👏 you guys, BRAVO 👏 🙌 I had been following for a long time and I'm very proud of what you've all done here!! Phenomenal work guys, bask in your accomplishments 👊💪💥
this dude is basically a legend
Amazing! Can't wait to see the finished project!
Extremely impressive. The engineering journey is extremely cool to see and as a DIYer I learn SO much from you, thanks!
Best Iron Man suite on the Internet ❤💪
Really great work. Proud of you to see that you're still going at it.
Bruh . . i dont care about iron man suit . . im just amazed at your attention to detail and creativity.
You are amazing! I have wanted to be a mechanical engineer for as long as I can remember, I want to design and invent things that could change the world. Lately that dream has seemed increasingly unobtainable. I’m now a freshman in college and I haven’t really done anything that would give me any experience. But since I found your channel, I’ve been inspired, I’m actually starting a project of my own and I have you to thank for that.
Thanks for all your hard work chap - As a blender code contributor its always heartwarming to see what people are doing with blender! One day I hope you will take this technology to its ultimate potential and make a full suit or partial suit. In fact I think there is a real market for using some of this technology as a disability aid - much like Tony stark categorized the iron man suit in one of the films. I truly hope you know just how talented you are, you are the real tony stark, I see a very bright future for you indeed.
Love your work, been two years well worth it, looking forward to the next 2!
Loved the video! I think the hygrogen pnumatic pistons will be of great use with the metal plateing... keep up the good work 👏
Hi Alex, thank you for sharing your content, you really are like the real life Iron man. You are an inspiration for modern engineers! Keep rocking and good luck with this amazing project! Cheers.
I hope you get there, I don't know if you're the only guy doing this on KZhead/in the world most companies focus on profit rather than innovation. This looks a lot like Innovation to me. So glad steps have become easier for you. Keep up the good work.
Bro one day I'm gonna get a notification from this channel and this man's gonna be in a full fledged iron man suit
The electroplating part is so cool, I worked in a lap that electroplated 3d printed materials and seeing it put into practice is amazing
This is amazing I just found your channel … just thanks for all your work
Finally! I found this last year maybe even further back then. Thank you!!!
Dude the composites playlist was such a neat and useful tool. Good job with all these amazing things!
Really respect how it's all put out there for anyone, for free too! Alex is a freaking legend!
it is so incredible how much time and effort you put into you builds and especially into sharing the resluts of your intense researches with us! Thank ou so much for this, it cant be appreciated enough!
Endless hours designing and building and still finds time to stay jacked. He uses at least 18 hrs of the day.
I can proudly say, I watched this endeavor of yours since day 1. I’m literally in tears, so proud of you Alex 🤙🏻
Holy cow man, I remember watching your video 5 years ago and loving it. I'm amazed that your still approving it. I love your content.
Dude, this is the best thing I’ve seen from a KZheadr in a long time! This video is amazing and you done some incredible work with this. Great job man!
I dream of this as a child all the time I knew someone would eventually do it.
Nice to see this actually being done. I had this very same idea for making medieval armor and weaponry. A 3D printed core, with some sort of composite material coated in metal using electroplating. It would be amazing for display pieces. Unfortunately I'm not maker of any kind, so I never did anything with it. Cool to see it working though.
It's amazing how much work you put into this. Can't wait to see the finished suit!
Marvel need to use this guys workshop as the set for an Iron Lad movie. The kid from Iron Man 3 needs to be making his own suit. We need an Iron Man that we love back in the MCU. Just have a complete movie about him making his suit, his struggles to find money for it, his reasoning, bring in friends that help him, just make it a simple buddy buddy, coming of age style movie
This is fire bro 🔥 keep u the great work your doing.
Appreciate your Effort.
You are such an engineering genius! Love it!
Imagine Alex co-op with JLaservideos and Hacksmith, they would make a full flying, shooting suit in a year 😅
Add Emily the Engineer, Adam Savage, and funding + support from Boston Dynamics, Lockheed Martin, SpaceX, Robosen, Hasbro, Toho, Megabots, VW, Sony / Honda, ATS Tech, John Deere Automation, and the Kurtas & Gundam teams, and We'll have Iron Man, Gundam Wing, and The Transformers that can do the things from the movies!
Great job as always!
YOU ARE JUST AN ABSOLUTE GENIUS!!! Im just entering engineering and you blow me away with everything! please don't stop!
I too love Iron Man and I've studied over 10 things to make the suit! I've been watching your videos for years now👍. Your scientific acumen is inspiring! I am amazed at your idea of using electrolysis and reduction of H2O, the same idea as mine! But my health is so bad that I can't move I'd like to meet you once when I'm better ‼️ Good work🎉
Wow finally ❤ Love from India 🇮🇳
0:18 Как же я угараю с того, что Алекс на английском языке зачитывает русский текст)) 0:18 It's so funny, that Alex speaking english while reading russian text))
Особенно, смешно то, что там написано
Блин, а я думаю че он в DM не отвечает в инсте или в комментах, оказывается я на английском все пишу))
Он как бы просто переводит русские видосы
@@qb3333 Спасибо, кэп!
@@INFinitely_Unregistered ну так с чего ты угараешь ?
Amazing stuff Alex! Always inspiring to catch up on your progress 💪
This guy is awesome on so many levels.. what an inspiration and Motivation😈
I can't wait for it to be completed
Next level bro
following u from the beginning ...happy to see ur progress... keep do it bro ...whatever it takes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is seriously badass. I’m thinking of layering this with the cheap bullet resistant material from ZNA’s videos to make an entire V for Vendetta style armored suit, but with style. You’ve inspired me so much!
Your analytics are lying to you mate I alone have watched through the playlist 3 times already and I don't even have the equipment or funding yet to even consider starting production. Dead set mate you are an inspiration
If you are looking for video topics, forged carbon would be cool and if you are up for a challenge pyrolytic carbon
i just finished atomic heart, so yes. flying natasha would be nice too
I'm currently writting a Comic where a character builds an armor, this saga of videos has been so useful
this man is a hero. will definitely be watching the playlist, ive got a 3d printer and have been getting into electroplating
I like how, to become like Iron Man, you actually need to physically become like Iron Man
Although i have notifications turned on for your channel, I still check everyday for your chance if you have uploaded a video ;)
I love these videos man, the original video is what got me into machining. I loved the idea of bringing this into real life, don't have the budget yet though lol. Keep being awesome :)
0:48 Correction on this part of the video. The personality disorder you are looking for is 'Dissociative Identity Disorder' (Multiple Personality Disorder). Bipolar is 'Manic Depressive' disorder. Where you often switch between states of depression, and states of mania. Mania is often what is associated with Bipolar disorder as people who flip from one emotion or another suddenly. Fantastic video overall. I can't wait to start using these methods on my projects. Very valuable information.
Alex, I am one of your subscribers that hasn't watched that playlist. I'll try to watch at least a few videos on it, but I blame KZhead for not putting the videos on my front page, since I, like many others, have hundreds of channels I have subscribed to over the years. I know you put a tremendous amount of effort into your videos, and I want to thank you for that. Hopefully more people will begin watching the other videos as well, but I think that KZhead just prioritizes showing videos that have "Iron Man" in the title, or perhaps the #ironman hashtag.
In fairness, if the real world Iron Man did have all that weight and rigidity in the suit, IF the tech like in the movies existed to drive it all as more of a mini-Gundam, it could still be realistic, but uhhh.... IF lmao. Also it just reinforces the reasoning that Tony needed the separate mechanisms and automation to assemble the suit over him as well. Obv though, hell yeah none of us are doing that and it is nice to be able to achieve anything even remotely close at a fraction of the cost and tech lol
Way cool, and way cool of you to share your work, superb work.
Fantastic video, always good to get updates from you Alex
Hello alex, i love your videos, but when do you show and more of the hydrogen pneumatics and together with the electronic sensors?
i've always felt like ironman's protection comes from the arc reactor providing a powerful energy shield that charges the suit.. not sure how. but for his metal suit to be bullet proof and not give him insane bruises he would need some sort of force field.
Well in the Iron Man comic book, he actually DID use a projected force field from his suit, but only a few times.
O una tecnología de amortiguacion para soportar los ataques@@ChristopherSchreib-yn1vu
Hell yeah Dudeeeee!! So excited, I have been waiting
Never stop, this is beautiful
Common brother why its taking too much time even using all equipments u've ,tony stark made this in a cave.
Where's your suit?
@@aaronranin8755 Gave to Iron Monger.
Insane man !! You rock it
How is this man channel not blowing up. He has done something extremely awesome.
You are an incredible man Alex. Thank you.
Looking awesome! can't wait to see a full suit on day.
This wild crazy. Good job Alex
this is the build video that ive been waiting for so long!!
Alex I started watching you from young but only now years later I’m able to focus on my own project. Thank you
Can't wait to see the final result. Great work!
I just love what you do, really LOL keep it up!!!
So awesome thanks dude, I'm gonna head over there right now
It’s a space suit + the grizzly bear suit + a jet built around it. When you said composite I thought of titanium structured like carbon, or layered materials like knights armor combined with phone case padding. Inspirational video.
brilliant design! congratulations! this is like a holy grail of iron man engineering
I really enjoyed the process, and I love your projects🔥
The distance he has came from where he started is so far and i have loved every second of his journey
