This is a technical breakdown of fuRo's WIND Robot System, which is a vest that converts body gestures into robot commands. The robot is fuRo's morph3.

  • Would this just be used solely for telepresence, or could you teach the bot particular movements using this technology?

  • The suit is triggering canned motion routines, so no, it's not "teaching" the robot. However, I suppose it could be used for such a purpose if the programming was there.

  • I might have found it more interesting if the girl was standing inside the head of a huge robot and was controlling it with these gestures. Like stomping, kicking and firing lasers.

  • Ok this thing is flawed Its not mimicking her gestures properly at all. I know this is still in development so I expect them to perfect this in the future, but I would not have done a vid as yet to show this until it could mimic simple gestures properly.
