- Abate interviews Benjamin Pietro Filardo, CEO and founder of Pliant Energy Systems. At PES, they developed a novel form of actuation using two undulating fins on a robot. These fins present multiple benefits over traditional propeller systems including excellent energy efficiency, low water turbulence, and an ability to maneuver in water, land, and ice. Aside from its benefits on a robot, Pietro also talks about its advantages for harnessing energy from moving water.
Benjamin Pietro Filardo
After several years in the architectural profession, Pietro founded Pliant Energy Systems to explore renewable energy concepts he first pondered while earning his first degree in marine biology and oceanography. With funding from four federal agencies he has broadened the application of these concepts into marine propulsion and a highly novel robotics platform.

WOW! What a brilliant invention! congrats!
Awesome sharing video
Fantastic design.
That is brilliant.
WoW Incredible my respects brillant idea
Amazing! And scary almost....
Very nice saw an article in the Economist magazine. Amazing idea
Excellent
is there anyway this can be reuploaded but with the audio made loud enough so that not just owls can hear it. I have my volume at 3x normal level and I can still barely hear it.
Wow, this is super impressive tech. Can't imagine the complexity in programming the control system; thrust and drag vectoring. Ping me if you're ever looking for an innovative mechy. Cheers.
I'm lovin' it
This could also function in air flight with modifications in materials and fin designs, while maintaining electro-differential from surface ‘fluid-flow’ to absorb charge from the airborne particles.
The cams could be powered or assisted by turbines utilizing electrical or flex-fuels, or optimized for specific fuels/hybrids. CVT could be implemented for coupling. One could really stretch design boundary by gathering design and test data from water systems, and ask an AI for design that could transition between sea/lakes and air.
My Initial inclination is to consider a blend between delta wing/lifting body, albatross/Swift, sea ray… other curious applications would be for fixed infrastructure vortex shedding (bridges, towers, poles, cables, etc).
The low density of air means that this approach isn't workable for aviation. There's a reason you don't see any flying creature that works like a sea ray.
In the spirit of Hayao Miyazaki, I suspect I’m not the only one who would love to see CFD numbers for powering high efficiency, low-speed, high maneuverability airships with this system!
Longyi super fine powder grinding machines advantages:
1. Powder from 48~4microns, fineness is adjustable
2. Built-in high efficiency classifier, no more investment cost for classifying system.
3. Smart PLC operation system, and integrated control system: 1 computer could operated max 6 machines, saving management cost.
4. No particle air pollution, more environment-friendly.
5. Compact structure to save factory space and lower foundation construction cost.
For CaCO3 powder
The whole grinding system including grinding, classifying, powder collector, fan, PLC cabinet, feeding conveyor and others, system power is 370Kw, the real working power is 296KW
1. D97=23um (600mesh) Output: 10tons/h Energy Consumption: 29.6Kw/Ton
2. D97=16um(800mesh) Output: 8tons/h Energy Consumption: 37Kw/Ton
3. D97=10um (1250mesh) Output: 4.5tons/h Energy Consumption: 65.7Kw/Ton
4. D97=6.5um(2000mesh) Output: 2.5tons/h Energy Consumption: 118.4Kw/Ton
It is suitable for processing nonmetallic minerals such as calcium carbonate, calcite, Kaolin, clay, barite, talc, gypsum, limestone, calcium oxide, bentonite, dolomite, chalk etc.

superb
it work on my pc thx bro vеry much
Dear. I wish you always success, success and happiness. Greetings to you
I want to see it go deep in the ocean 🤩
I wonder if it can be practically scaled up to a 300'-500' long ?
Thanks.
I want one, just to use as a remote-controlled underwater drone with first-person video.
How do you think the fish will respond to it?
@@Robohub-org I'd imagine similar to this earlier Sepios design, from around 1:39 in.

the flying carpet was invented by the old man Hottabych a long time ago.
genius🥰

💜💛🧡❤️💚🖤
It's a nice design, but it's based on an already outdated, tried and lost precambrianic body plan. My humble opinion is that they should focus on modern fish body plans.
❤❤💕💕💘💘
24:53 Ah yes, the military... everything for wars :/ whoops, sorry, for peace "vov"

dron crashed in well
Le problème ne se pose pas au niveau de sujet mais il se pose de la façon d enseigner comme les europiens
Cool toy. Seems to me there are a lot of fragile moving parts. I can't see this form of propulsion being more efficient or reliable than the good old propeller but it's probably great at sneaking up on some unsuspecting Cuddle fish. Keep tryin
pointless research, still research
Your missing the point. Land, Sea, Ice, and Snow
[Khaby Lame meme]: tracks
@@MrPuddingEater you're right! it's the toy avatar!
The main point of research is that it IS more efficient than a propeller. Few moving parts, no tangles
🍟
She ruined this design.

Storm water, sewage, oil pipelines, any time you have thick mud or stuff like that, that little stingray thing could glide through miles of pipes looking for the blockage or whatever, LOL sorry I'm spamming, great idea, good to know people are still alive with inventive minds. :)
LOL damn I'll probably never hear another thing about this tech, the US military are not very intelligent but sooner or later they'll realise that a sub with a quite stirling engine powering it, and this fantastic fin propelling it, that sub would be impossible to detect, it would sound like a large ray or shark on sonar.
I hope that it isn't classified and buried by the US, the sub that used a stirling engine was, after it sunk the USS flagship aircraft carrier in war games, I wish I could be involved in this kind of development.
It should be rushed into production and retrofitted to all sea transport, those container ships and the rest of the loud propellor ships to stop all the sound pollution that has stopped whales communicating with each other, they stopped shipping after the 911 attack for a little while and suddenly heard whales start singing, they had stopped for so long that nobody had heard them before.
