"You're getting a lot of debris locked between your patella actuators here...are you spending a lot of time on your knees?"

"Damnit, and now you're vocal actuators have gone out..."

what if linear actuators for leggies

Hydraulics still work fine in orbit, of course, as do springs and motors and other actuators.

Plus there's always the airlock if you want to go old school and space them yourself.

"OH but they cant do anything useful" here's the same robot building its own actuators

AND NOW MY VOCAL ACTUATORS HAVE GONE OUT.

in all ways but physical i have hydraulic actuators

Ive been working on updates for my wing frame, stronger lighter connections, an extra phalanx (finger) linkage and new actuators which are lighter and more nimble! Time to hook up the other wing

Apparently EpicAttack for his actuators stuck while stretching and the only way to release it is through his hard meat.

its not cyberpunk unless getting highspeed linear actuators implanted in your dick for vibrational purposes is cheap and common

🌱 I've got the raspberry pi with 6 sensors and two actuators hooked up. Here, it's venting excess heat:

And now the classic - a gimbal test of the Energia core stage's four RD-0120 engines.

The gimbal actuators are driven by gaseous hydrogen tapped off from the engine plumbing.

🌱 Next? Hook up the raspberry pi powered actuators to open and close the lids.
🌱 Cold frames are now in place

whipping up a project for @elegoo at Open Sauce using all elegoo PETG 3dprinted feathers and hinges with a frame of fiberglass rods. mini linear actuators and led strips installed for these crystal wings #3dprinting #cosplay

Stacked tech priestess with a soft voice squishing her massive rack all over your power armor as she fixes some faulty actuators in your helmet
stacked techpriest I might eventually put on the tabletop as a joke

Velox is a robot capable of swimming through water and crawling over ice, snow, sand and other grounds using a coordinated system of actuators powering soft, undulating fins, granting biomimetic properties reminiscent of the animal kingdom.

These will be displayed at Open Sauce for Elegoo. I made these wings with all 3dprinted PETG from @elegoo
Using fiberglass rods, some bolts, 3mm addressable led strips and mini linear actuators to complete the whole setup, it weighs only 3.5lbs (no battery) #3dprinting #opensauce

Detailing actuators and joints is stressful man. #Battletech #BattletechPainting

GRITTYHOUND, the hit new AU installment where every chapter is three paragraphs long and ends with the POV getting their leg actuators blown off by indirect fire artillery or an IED hidden in a bush

Lower Arm and Hand Actuators matter.

Yes, the Rifleman can still fail to be able to paint it's minis behind it's back. 🙃

Her legs turning to jelly as the miles tick by, Sam has to rely on her suits actuators to endure the relentless wheel.

MacGyver would be proud of us! Replacing a 42‑year‑old planetary gear motor in one of our Super 8 manufacturing system’s actuators with a modern drive unit, while reusing the original motor’s front flange to maintain mechanical compatibility and enable an easy drop‑in fit. 😃👍

We have officially acquired Motiv Space Systems.
Motiv – now Rocket Lab Robotics – brings mission-tested Mars heritage with advanced multi-degree of freedom robotic arms, actuators, and drive electronics.

Tremendous power output of the actuators to pull this off. Excellent.

I am reasonably confident we will be returning to this soon.

Manufacturers are currently deluding themselves into thinking that people actually want this crap and are spending more money to release cars with all these actuators in them versus pure mechanical interfaces.

It's just inertia.
