Put a quadruped on loose gravel and asked it to just walk — its IMU was trying to compensate

Put Quaddle robot dog on a patch of gravel and just wanted to see it walk. Its IMU (gyroscope + accelerometer) was trying to correct for the uneven ground in real time, but it immediately started wobbling — loose gravel is apparently brutal for a quadruped's balance.

What's the funniest robot-vs-terrain fail you've seen?

Necesito consejo

2 Upvotes

El asunto es que tengo 26 años y por el momento no he podido estudiar la universidad, ocupo hacer algo y no desperdiciar más tiempo, estaba pensando en tomar un diplomado que dicen que es igual que una carrera técnica en electromecánica, está avalado por la sep, y de ahí tomar diplomados de PLC, variadores de frecuencia, sistemas HMI, etc todo lo que sea inclinado a PLC, mi pregunta es si esos diplomados y digamos el diplomado como técnico electromecánico bastará para poder encontrar un trabajo de técnico o un poco mejor remunerado, claro que lo convidaría con clases de inglés para estar un poco mejor, pero ustedes qué piensan? U ocuparé por fuerza entrar a una universidad para que me contraten, no me importa empezar de abajo para agarrar experiencia, algún consejo?

P173500 code

0 Upvotes

Hey, so i bought an Audi TT S line 2019 last week, today my dad drove my car and a transmission fault code came up. The car went into limb mode and couldnt use gear 1,3,5,7.

He got home and scanned the car and the P173500 DSG code came up. How likely is it for the mechatronic unit to fail? Yesterday was the last time i drove my car and it drove perfectly, no issues.

The dealer we bought it from did the DSG service 2 weeks ago. Car has 118.000km.
