📌 3 Key Takeaways
Abstract
Nowadays, humanoid robots with great capabilities used in a variety of purposes to serve humans have become an integral part of our lives. In this study, we have developed a low-cost humanoid robot that can be fabricated with an open-source 3D printer. Firstly, the 3D-CAD model of the humanoid robot was created using source codes of the “InMoov” project which is originated by Gael Langevin who works as a designer on his project since 2012. The humanoid robot involves approximately 685 parts built from the PLA (Poly-Lactic Acid) raw material. After that, a new electronics system based on the embedded controllers which have been controlled with the python programming language has been designed. This robotic platform controlled with the help of voice commands has the capability to communicate with people. Furthermore, a skilled prosthetic hand controlled according to the commands from a smart glove, can grasp and holds objects, have been specially developed in this study. When comparing to the existing commercial humanoid robots, this humanoid robot developed as specific has a substructure which is not only low cost but also open to new improvements as well.
