So this video was taken
1
8811
1903
Toto video bolo natočené
00:22
at Aquarius undersea laboratory
2
10714
2432
v podmorskom laboratóriu Aquarius
00:25
four miles off the coast of Key Largo,
3
13146
1853
šesť kilometrov od pobrežia Key Largo.
00:26
about 60 feet below the surface.
4
14999
2578
Približne 20 metrov pod povrchom.
00:29
NASA uses this extreme environment
5
17577
1724
NASA používa toto extrémne prostredie
00:31
to train astronauts and aquanauts,
6
19301
2424
na trénovanie astronautov a potápačov.
00:33
and last year, they invited us along for the ride.
7
21725
3362
Minulý rok nás pozvali na jazdu.
00:37
All the footage was taken from our open ROV,
8
25087
2884
Všetky zábery boli natočené z našej DOV,
00:39
which is a robot that we built in our garage.
9
27971
4487
čo je robot, ktorého sme postavili v našej garáži.
00:44
So ROV stands for Remote Operated Vehicle,
10
32458
3568
DOV znamená diaľkovo ovládané vozidlo.
00:48
which in our case means our little robot
11
36026
1527
To v našom prípade znamená, že náš malý robot
00:49
sends live video
12
37553
2264
posiela živé zábery
00:51
across that ultra-thin tether
13
39817
1918
cez ulta tenký kábel
00:53
back to the computer topside.
14
41735
2428
naspäť do nášho počítača.
00:56
It's open source, meaning we publish
15
44163
1978
Je to open source, čo znamená,
00:58
and share all of our design files
16
46141
2045
že publikujeme a zdieľame všetky naše súbory s designom
01:00
and all of our code online,
17
48186
1508
a všetok náš kód online.
01:01
allowing anyone to modify
18
49694
2034
Dovoľujúc každému aby ho pozmenil
01:03
or improve or change the design.
19
51728
2349
a vylepšil, alebo zmenil design.
01:06
It's built with mostly off-the-shelf parts
20
54077
2303
Je postavený hlavne zo súčastiek priamo z poličky
01:08
and costs about 1,000 times cheaper
21
56380
1835
a je približne 1000 krát lacnejší
01:10
than the ROVs James Cameron used
22
58215
1879
než ten DOV,
01:12
to explore the Titanic.
23
60094
3605
ktorý použil James Cameron na skúmanie Titanicu.
01:15
So ROVs aren't new.
24
63699
2210
Čiže DOV nie sú nové.
01:17
They've been around for decades.
25
65909
1708
Boli vymyslené pred desaťročiami.
01:19
Scientists use ROVs to explore the oceans.
26
67617
3036
Vedci ich používali na objavovanie oceánov.
01:22
Oil and gas companies use them for exploration
27
70653
2819
Ropné a plynárenské spoločnosti ich používali
01:25
and construction.
28
73472
1547
na objavovanie a konštrukciu,
01:27
What we've built isn't unique.
29
75019
2762
To, čo sme postavili nie je unikátne.
01:29
It's how we've built it that's really unique.
30
77781
2874
Ale to, ako sme to postavili je.
01:32
So I want to give you a quick story
of how it got started.
of how it got started.
31
80655
2981
Krátky príbeh, ako to začalo.
01:35
So a few years ago, my friend Eric and I
32
83636
2271
Pred pár rokmi sme sa ja a môj kamoš Eric
01:37
decided we wanted to explore this underwater cave
33
85907
2200
rozhodli preskúmať podvodnú jaskyňu
01:40
in the foothills of the Sierras.
34
88107
1858
v úpätí Sierra Nevadských hôr.
01:41
We had heard this story about lost gold
35
89965
1903
Počuli sme príbeh o stratenom zlate z obdobia zlatej horúčky
01:43
from a Gold Rush-era robbery,
and we wanted to go up there.
and we wanted to go up there.
36
91868
2518
a chceli sa sa tam ísť pozrieť.
01:46
Unfortunately, we didn't have any money
37
94386
1658
Naneštastie sme ale nemali žiadne peniaze.
01:48
and we didn't have any tools to do it.
38
96044
1823
A ani nástroje, aby sme to mohli spraviť.
01:49
So Eric had an initial design idea for a robot,
39
97867
3200
Eric mal základný dizajnérsky nápad na robota,
01:53
but we didn't have all the parts figured out,
40
101067
2773
ale nemali sme všetky súčiastky, aby sme ho mohli spraviť.
01:55
so we did what anybody would do in our situation:
41
103840
2212
Takže sme spravili to, čo by spravil každý v našej situácii.
01:58
we asked the Internet for help.
42
106052
2038
Požiadali sme o pomoc cez internet.
02:00
More specifically, we created this website,
43
108090
2532
Trošku špecifickejšie,
02:02
openROV.com, and shared
our intentions and our plans
our intentions and our plans
44
110622
2895
vytvorili sme stránku openROV.com a zdieľali sme naše zámery a plány.
02:05
For the first few months, it was just Eric and I
45
113517
2390
Prvých pár mesiacov to bol len Eric a ja,
02:07
talking back to each other on the forums,
46
115907
2530
kto sa rozprával na fórach,
02:10
but pretty soon, we started to get feedback
47
118437
2088
ale onedlho sme začali dostávať spätnú odozvu.
02:12
from makers and hobbyists,
48
120525
1843
Od výrobcov a hobbystov
02:14
and then actually professional ocean engineers
49
122368
1994
a nakoniec aj od skutočných profesionálnych oceánskych inžinierov.
02:16
who had some suggestions for what we should do.
50
124362
3532
Títo mali odporúčania, čo by sme mali robiť.
02:19
We kept working on it. We learned a lot.
51
127894
1764
Stále sme na tom pracovali. Veľa sme sa naučili.
02:21
We kept prototyping, and eventually,
52
129658
2025
Neprestávali sme s prototypovaním,
02:23
we decided we wanted to go
to the cave. We were ready.
to the cave. We were ready.
53
131683
2719
až kým sme sa nerozhodli ísť do tej jaskyne. Boli sme pripravení.
02:26
So about that time, our little expedition
became quite a story,
became quite a story,
54
134402
3440
Niekedy v tom čase sa naša expedícia stala vcelku príbehom.
02:29
and it got picked up in The New York Times.
55
137842
2021
Bola vybraná do New York Times.
02:31
And we were pretty much just overwhelmed
56
139863
1812
Boli sme dosť zaskočení záujmom ľudí,
02:33
with interest from people who wanted a kit
57
141675
1783
ktorí chceli vlastný kit,
02:35
that they could build this open ROV themselves.
58
143458
2521
aby si mohli postaviť vlastný DOV.
02:37
So we decided to put the project on Kickstarter,
59
145979
3289
Preto sme sa rozhodli dať projekt na Kickstarter.
02:41
and when we did,
60
149268
1232
To sme aj spravili.
02:42
we raised our funding goal in about two hours,
61
150500
2075
A vyzbierali sme náš cieľový počet peňazí za dve hodiny.
02:44
and all of a sudden,
had this money to make these kits.
had this money to make these kits.
62
152575
3205
Zrazu sme mali dostatok peňazí na robenie týchto kitov.
02:47
But then we had to learn how to make them.
63
155780
2195
Lenže potom sme sa museli naučiť, ako ich vyrábať.
02:49
I mean, we had to learn small batch manufacturing.
64
157975
2165
Teda, museli sme sa naučiť robiť ako v malej manufaktúre.
02:52
So we quickly learned that our garage
65
160140
3260
Rýchlo sme zistili,
02:55
was not big enough to hold our growing operation.
66
163400
2679
že naša garáž nebola dostatočne veľká na pojatie nášho vzrastajúceho množstva objednávok.
02:58
But we were able to do it, we got all the kits made,
67
166079
2156
Ale boli sme schopní to spraviť. Dokončili sme všetky kity.
03:00
thanks a lot to TechShop,
which was a big help to us,
which was a big help to us,
68
168235
2707
Ďakujem veľmi pekne TechShop, ktorý bol pre nás veľkou pomocou.
03:02
and we shipped these kits all over the world
69
170942
2985
Všetky tieto kity sme rozoslali po svete
03:05
just before Christmas of last year,
70
173927
1829
akurát pred Vianocami minulý rok.
03:07
so it was just a few months ago.
71
175756
1782
Takže to bolo vlastne len zopár mesiacov dozadu.
03:09
But we're already starting to get video
72
177538
1908
Ale už dostávame video a fotky naspäť
03:11
and photos back from all over the world,
73
179446
1598
z celého sveta.
03:13
including this shot from under the ice in Antarctica.
74
181044
3030
Vrátane tohoto záberu, ktorý je z pod ľadu na Antarktíde.
03:16
We've also learned the penguins love robots.
75
184074
3400
Takisto sme zistili, že tučniaci milujú roboty.
03:19
(Laughter)
76
187474
2013
(smiech)
03:21
So we're still publishing all the designs online,
77
189487
3168
Stále uverejňujeme všetky návrhy online.
03:24
encouraging anyone to build these themselves.
78
192655
2118
Podporujeme všetkých, aby si ich sami postavili.
03:26
That's the only way that we could have done this.
79
194773
2403
To je jediný spôsob, ako sme to mohli spraviť.
03:29
By being open source, we've created
80
197176
1659
Tým, že sme boli open source,
03:30
this distributed R&D network,
81
198835
2264
sme vytvorili túto distribuovanú sieť výskumu a vývoja
03:33
and we're moving faster than
any venture-backed counterpart.
any venture-backed counterpart.
82
201099
3796
Hýbeme sa rýchlejšie ako akýkoľvek financovaný náprotivok.
03:36
But the actual robot is really only half the story.
83
204895
3205
Ale robot je naozaj iba polovica príbehu.
03:40
The real potential, the long term potential,
84
208100
2496
Reálny potenciál, dlhodobý potenciál
03:42
is with this community of DIY ocean explorers
85
210596
2677
je vnútri komunity DIY (urob-si -sám) oceánskych bádateľov,
03:45
that are forming all over the globe.
86
213273
2396
ktorí sa formujú po celej planéte.
03:47
What can we discover
87
215669
1534
Čo dokážeme objaviť,
03:49
when there's thousands of these devices
88
217203
1904
keď budú tisícky týchto zariadení
03:51
roaming the seas?
89
219107
2046
brázdiť moria?
03:53
So you're probably all wondering: the cave.
90
221153
2276
Hm, asi všetci rozmýšľate : Jaskyňa.
03:55
Did you find the gold?
91
223429
1826
Našli ste zlato?
03:57
Well, we didn't find any gold,
92
225255
1552
Nenašli sme žiadne zlato.
03:58
but we decided that what we found
was much more valuable.
was much more valuable.
93
226807
3229
Ale rozhodli sme sa, že to, čo sme našli je omnoho cennejšie.
04:02
It was the glimpse into a potential future
94
230036
2472
Bol to náhľad do potencionálnej budúcnosti.
04:04
for ocean exploration.
95
232508
1675
Do budúcnosti oceánskeho bádania.
04:06
It's something that's not limited to
the James Camerons of the world,
the James Camerons of the world,
96
234183
2910
Nie je to niečo, čo je vyhradené len pre Jamesov Cameronov tohto sveta,
04:09
but something that we're all participating in.
97
237093
2595
ale niečo, v čom sa každý môže zapojiť.
04:11
It's an underwater world
98
239688
1333
Je to podmorský svet,
04:13
we're all exploring together.
99
241021
2511
ktorí všetci objavujeme spoločne.
04:15
Thank you.
100

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
David Lang - MakerDavid Lang is a maker and the co-founder of OpenROV, a community of ocean lovers who build underwater robots.
Why you should listen
David Lang is a maker whose craving for adventure turned him into an amateur ocean explorer. A few years ago Lang and NASA engineer Eric Stackpole went looking for lost gold (literally) in an underwater cave in the foothills of the Sierra Navada. But they weren't quite sure how to go about it. Without much expertise (or money), the two put initial designs for an underwater robot explorer online. Soon OpenROV was born: a community of citizen ocean explorers who build and constantly improve upon these small remote operated underwater robots.
Lang is also the author of Zero to Maker and a 2013 TED Fellow. He lives on a sailboat in the San Francisco Bay.
