A bit like the famous Flowbee haircutting machine from the 80s, a vacuum inside the robotic draws up the hair, which is pulled tight, then the part of the hair to be cut is chosen. Then the connected scissors on the robot cut the hair..
Completion results are interesting. Wightons haircut isnt terrific, however its not terrible either. The only other drawback of his robotic is that it obviously takes a lot longer for it to cut hair than a human barber. But that isnt stopping Wighton from developing another robotic barber to “check out some of the crazier haircut ideas.”.
For more like this.
The robotic uses a computer program that offers an individual different alternatives of hairstyle styles. The robotics scissors are connected to an adjustable lever that turns around the humans head..
As a security precaution, the robotic measures the distance in between the hair it wishes to cut from the scalp. The robot wasnt able to cut near Wightons ears since of this. Much better safe than ending up being Vincent Von Gogh, I suppose.
Enjoy this brave creator get his hair cut but a scissors-wielding robotic.

With COVID quarantine avoiding us from seeing our favorite hairstylists and barbers, some of us have to attempt to cut our own hair with varied results. One gifted innovator was so fed up with his shaggy hair that he chose to develop a robot to cut his hair..
” My hair is getting too long so I chose to develop a robotic to suffice for me,” creator Shane Wighton of the YouTube channel Stuff Made Here composed in his video description.

” The possibilities for this … maker are unlimited with the most intriguing things being haircuts that are too tough for human hair cutters to achieve,” Wighton composed. “Imagine a mathematically best fade from one side of your head to another. Or envision if I added a trimmer to this, and cutting a best lithophane pattern into your hair.”.
If you desire ideas for a more dangerous haircutting experience, have a look at this video from YouTuber and robotic creator Simone Giertz, who developed a Hair-Cutting Drone..
YouTuber Roman Atwood likewise developed an even scarier drone barber which was essentially just a flying drone bring an electrical razor. Yikes!
As a security preventative measure, the robotic determines the distance in between the hair it desires to cut from the scalp. Since of this, the robotic wasnt able to cut near Wightons ears. The only other disadvantage of his robotic is that it obviously takes a lot longer for it to cut hair than a human barber. That isnt stopping Wighton from building another robotic barber to “check out some of the crazier hairstyle principles.”.
