The uh hero of Alexandria uh his pneumatic device for opening the uh for opening the gates of the temple right and the on the uh time of the sacrifice and all that. And of course I have
drinkers she looked like a Vargas pinup she had the long legs the pointed feet the pneumatic breasts the big blue eyes the cascading hair what did I look like well I'll tell you but first our costumes AA wore a
There's a bunch of hydraulic axes for the more powerful aspects within his body-- shoulder shrugs and waist movements. There's even pneumatics in his wrists. We found as a big marionette puppet where, I described before, he needed lovely loose joints for them to be manipulated when Kong would go up and do a chest
But anyway, just a personal story. These are pneumatic tubes, literally little P tubes. You can put a piece of paper or something in there and send it from one console to another.
that friction by ten thousand fold; so, a big soft car just like a beach ball would fall on top of you if it doesn't completely stop. They go flaccid, you, because they're mostly made out of pneumatics, or air-based systems, you can stack them like pancakes, pull them out like a surfboard, with an attendant you've got your car. Here, this vehicle, I was thinking of, well, we had a new sponsor. In this case, Reebok. They want to get into making the bodies for these very smart, omnidirectional intelligent wheels, so we present the shoe
Instead of erring on the side of how far, how fast, how long – how about how does it feel? Because Dunlop developed pneumatic tires in 1899.
Instead of erring on the side of how far, how fast, how long – how about how does it feel? when the pneumatic tire came out and women could ride a bike.
The minimum you're going to pay for something like this is about $1,400. So a device that doesn't have pneumatics, like some fancy stuff in there, can go $1,400 maybe up to $6,000 or $7,000. And then this-- and I brought some props.
I don't know what they were thinking about there. Is it supposed to be pneumatic tubes, or something like that? I'm not sure. They said it was imminent back then.
in bad weather. The first simulator company, The Link Company, was an organ company not coincidentally because all these simulators used pneumatic tubes to provide a kind of analog computing model of simulation. And interestingly enough also in this context the very first digital computer with magnetic stored memory, the World Wind computer, was itself originally designed to be a flight
So as the kids get older, we get into the bigger robots, obviously, that becomes more challenging, and we're working on figuring out how to address that need. Sometimes, there's pneumatics. There's motors and stuff.
So we spent-- I mean, we were doing this in like a week, to where you're having to build this structure-- basically doing underwater construction, like pneumatic drills underwater, putting it into the sea floor. Then you need all of this weight to keep all this equipment down there, because the cameras are extremely positively buoyant.
But guess what? In maybe a minute I looked at that Lincoln that was not working, and I saw it as an aircraft fuselage made out of thin walled steel tube with little pneumatic cylinders, a few hydraulics cylinders, little Fafnir aircraft bearings. I did not see it as a human, and I did not see it in the way the machine had been evolved in a design in the machine shop.
It's the little things, y'all. Yeah. The other nice piece is the pneumatic doors that feel very Star Trek. Yeah. But you don't want to get stuck on one, because they don't retract if you get stuck in the pneumatic sliding door.
That make sense? Yeah. You have oral appliances that do-- so whereas a CPAP is what we call a pneumatic splint, it literally pushes--
OK, I need a brave soul here. And you do that by opening the valve by pumping in some pneumatic air in here that
When Descartes was here, the newest thing was those little pneumatic machines like you have at the bank that sucks your cheque over
And that's when they added this, which is the pneumatic tires.
They were all magic tricks--applications of the little-known sciences of hydraulics, pneumatics, and chemistry.
Around when Alfred introduced dynamite, there were two other major breakthroughs, the pneumatic drill and the diamond drilling crown, which now made it easy
to go to the pharmacy, which might be 10 floors away, or you stuck it in a pneumatic tube.
Yeah. The other nice piece is the pneumatic doors that feel very Star Trek. Yeah. But you don't want to get stuck on one, because they don't retract if you get stuck in the pneumatic sliding door. You can crack nuts with them, too.
That make sense? Yeah. So an oral appliance is actually called a splint, like a physical splint as opposed to a pneumatic splint.
to the teller. So he thought-- you put your finger near a fire, and a little message went up a pneumatic thing like that.
through electronic simulation and prefabricated designs. While they never found success on earth, one of the five pilot projects were built but they had terrible technical problems with things like pneumatic toilets which I won't
