Giger is a WIP (work in progress) fully custom humanoid robot. He stands about 25" tall and weighs roughly 12lbs. All his brackets are made of 2/2.5mm 5052 aluminum, and uses a 400mhz Gumstix Verdex Pro as onboard smarts.

This is about 2 hours of work after final configuration as a result of the new upgrades. All 10 main leg servos have been upgraded to EX-106+ Dynamixels, so my previous walking gait progress was entirely erased. All new custom brackets used in the legs and feet, as well as new elbow/shoulder brackets and arm extensions. Brackets were designed in Autodesk Inventor 2008 and machined by Rapid Sheet Metal: http://www.rapidsheetmetal.com

Keep in mind; I have this gait tuned to a very slow rate so that I can work on the balance and COG shifting correctly, then it can be sped up to a more realistic, useful speed.

  • dear santa.....

  • @purplecruiserman Lol. I'm friends with the uploader. Was totally trolling. Get mad.

  • @jalavoy faggit shut up so what

  • Your robot needs a pelvis. Its important for weight shifting from one leg to another. A manual pelvis will serve well with load springs to provide some automatic feedback!

  • I'm going to make some robots and fight them

  • Great stuff...will give it a try asap!!!
