Thats amazing, are all the joints made from modified KRS servos?

It looks so real that i'd almost say it was some kind of animation.
From reading the translation of the above page:

Based on modified Kondo KHR-2HV. Took 3 months do build.
All brackets were redesigned to elimitate cable exposure and make it look a bit more human-like.

Height: 36cm Weight: 1.1kg
21 Degrees of freedom: feet 6 × 2, arms 4 × 2, the neck in a total of 21
Using Servo: KRS-788HV × 20, GWS-PICO-STD × 1 (head only)
Power: 12V battery or power cable for Hobby Robot
Control Board: RCB-3J postural control: gyro × 2, acceleration sensor

half decent translation of the page:

http://excite.co.jp/world/english/web/? ... N&wb_dis=2

The guy who did this is insanely clever. Without too much fanfare he basically designed an amazing humanoid robot that performs better than most.

:shock: :shock: :shock:

OMG. That is amazing. Not only has he/they re-engineered the brackets - the servo casing has been re-engineered. The metal motor casing is now exposed - which could probably could help with cooling.

This really is a quantum leap in hobby robotics.

Truely a master builder. Quite remarkable - especially with the tools he used.

as above :wink:

im thinking you could do the clip-on cooling fin thing with a somewhat exposed servo drive of any currently used servo? bit of case filing involved of course :P

file it down a bit and it may even look serious (anodized?)

I love it. good idea using the standard servos and taking them out of the case. Must have taken a lot of time designing the parts.
