@@michaelroberts8397 I think a physical object in front of you is better than a vibration. Because adjusting speed while following objects is automatically done by our subconcious mind. Reacting to a vibration isn't. That's why many record holders in marathon disciplines have different people running infront of them for parts of the distance. So this is better adapted to the "software" of the human than a vibration signal. And you can produce them well under 100 bucks, which is very affordable for most track teams.This is my opinion however, but with a small sample comparing perfomance and by asking the runners afterwards what they liked better one could easily assess it.
@@weirjwerijrweurhuewhr588 The most sensitive shit I've seen in a while is you taking time out of your day to hate on this dude's achievements. Sounds like someone didn't get in lmao
@@weirjwerijrweurhuewhr588 they werent offended because of truth, irritating part is your lack of communication skills and wording your sentence horribly. using buzzwords like "sensitive" and "offended" will not make you any more correct.
I remember building similar robots using Lego Mindstorms, altough they could never work at speeds even close to yours. Using robotics as a training tool for runners is a really cool and creative idea!
Awesome, good luck! And thank you :) In your essays try to show who you are and what drives you, using stories from your life. My essays show who I am, and are therefore not so helpful to others. Read some MIT admissions blog posts - they have some excellent guidelines!
@@yoraish Wow thanks, your comment really helped me! I finished my essays and about to film my maker portfolio next week! Thanks a lot, you changed my life. I hope I can make it in to '25 for MIT.

Wow! Awesome projects! Really excited about the learning spirit!
damn not only is this a apt show of engineering passion it also could be a viable product worthy of a pitch on shark tank
A slight buzz on your apple watch when you're off pace is much more efficient and only requires the parent hardware.

@@Malaka1802 Nope
It's good for a project but not as a commercial product since it can be easily replicated by chinese companies or anyone else.
wow this is so impressive i see a lot of runners would actually buy this
You’re trolling?
That pacing robot is so dope, but man the secret door knock blew my mind!
The secret knock lock is actually not that impressive. It's actually one of the examples in the official Arduino starter kit.
@@weirjwerijrweurhuewhr588 Damn stop hating bruh

dang, from frc to this? sheesh, you must've been a great member of your team
Dang, a couple months ago I had a similar thought, trying to make a track robot which could pace me for intervals, but unlike me you actually built it
This is awesome!
This is amazing
Thats such a good idea
That is such a cool application for the line robot
awesome
Hey, were you on the 1138 frc team?
Are you a recruited athlete?
Mate, how old are you?
Pacer bot is cool
Where are you now in life?
I am now a Ph.D. student at the Robotics Institute -- Carnegie Mellon University 🤖
@@yoraish Congrats man.
@@yoraish what was your undergrad degree in?

Hi, did you get in?
Tito Adesanya Hi, yes I was accepted early action
Awesome, good luck! And thank you :)

@@Sanyu-Tumusiime did you make it??
@@ish01 rejected. but princeton got my back 😜. i'm not complaining. MIT was never my top choice anyways. Go TIGERS!!!
loving it in New Jersey man.
It doesn't look like any of these "MIT Maker Portfolio" examples have anything to with MIT.
It's for a request to get accepted in MIT
It's so MIT can see their potential
your slow ass sure as hell didn’t get in
🤓
Did he get in?
yes
He got into MIT but turned it down???
@@ayyuhhshh2169 no he got in he said for undergrad, but he is now at carnegie mellon for his PhD
