@JUKIO01 Now it is a research robot to investigate different technologies (like programs,...) so it can work in a human environment like home or office.
we did not had that experience that the motors got overheated. The engineers made a huge effort to cool the whole system efficiently, one of the reasons why the interior design is a secret.
I'm afraid jumping will be difficult. Problem is that the joints are stiff due to use of electrical motors with high gain-PID control. Compliant actuators are more intersting to absorb impact shocks and store release energy while jumping as we do in for example the achilles tendon.
Yes the trajectory generator is made so you can choose the footholds yourself. We can program the footholds so the robot steps around the obstacle. But going over is more difficult ;-) (huge step while the robot needs to be maintain its stability)
so, is this robot basically going to be used mainly for construction? or will it be able to do lots of other operations?

Why do all these robot researchers think robots have to look human?
All they do is walk, run (hardly), and play the violin. USLESS!
I think form should follow function.
Make a machine that can do something useful then slap some skin on it.
It may look like a monster but it will be a useful monster.

Nothing will stop em. Not even 15x5 cm obstacle. Robots will rule the world =D

looks cooler then the other bots

Yeah, HRP-2 looks coolest.

Do the motors get too hot after extensive use?

Can the knee joints handle or power the stress of a jump?

Can it also be programmed to go around objects?
