quiet & free

thank you! the rest of the comic is still in progress, i just finished page 5 an hour ago, the whole comic should be done in 2 weeks ish. here's the page 5 preview because youve been good

Anyone who has worked with setting up industrial robots knows that there is a teach/hand locate mode. you plug in a pendant, change a few settings, and now the robot is basically weightless. you can grab any of its joints and BY HAND, move it around. the robot will not resist - can not resist. all it can do is fight gravity. you typically do this to move all the joints of a robot into position for the next step which is

locking everything in place. now that you have positioned your robot how you want it, you need to keep it there while you set up other things. this is where the motor lock comes in. this enables when you exit hand locate mode. THIS is how you keep a robot in place. not with rope. nothing is going to make this robot move now. those joints are locked in place by the full might of electric motors, which by the way, have the MOST torque at low/0 rpm

if you do need to make it move while locked, you can enter jog mode and dial into a specific motor and slowly have it step forward or backward in small amounts. the position feedback on these joints is fed into a PID loop so that motion is not jerky or over/undershooting. so unless you go in and de-tune the PID control loop, your robot is not going to shiver or shudder in place

and lastly, the estop. this kills all power to all motors. if you hit this then gravity wins and your robot will collapse to the ground in a heap (and probably leave a pretty good dent in the floor)

now could i write smut where you hand locate a robot into a compromising position, lock in in place, aimlessly twiddle its PID values until its a shaky mess, fuck it senseless, and then hit the estop on the way out leaving on the ground in a crumpled heap?

Hound kneeling next to its Handler, making everyone but them uneasy

Hound glaring at everyone in front of it, wanting nothing more to rip out everyone of their throats

Once the room empties out, leaving only the hound and Handler, the Handler puts a hand on its head

The hound immediately relaxing, with a big smile appearing on its face

Handler patting it's lap, giving the hound it's command

Hound laying it's head on their lap as fast as it can, giving a slight purr from its throat

Hound going from the biggest threat to the biggest most docile lap dog
