This is absolutely bonkers!! I'm beyond amazed! I am researching how to build a small walker with Raspberry pi boards, and I saw designs with 6-12 motors that have problems with RL. It is beyond amazing what you've been able to achieve! Congrats! How can I print this?? Please open source the stuff! The maker community is going to go wild, all we need is an stl file!
Maybe good for the toy industry. But seems kind of usless to work so hard to create a bipedal robot that cannot go up and down stairs, or uneven surfaces.
The real win is the use of a single motor. The kinematics of walking are very complex, and even a straight walk is hard to achieve with 4-6 motors. The use of mocap and center of gravity computations are super super awesome. Think about their end goal: they want to have a lego-sized walker. This robot is just a first step in that direction, and in many others.
They just need it for special edge cases, unlike full humanoid robots that are more complex and very expensive. This one might be only the 2 feets walking and they would add camera and captors to it.
Love how they say making it simple because that's what I've been saying.
So much potential already but only if it's make simple can open the door!
This project is fabulous.

Super success super congrats keep up the good work we need super intelligent robots
I'm looking for a toy robot as a basis for artifical foot skeleton for a belt down paralized friend, so he can "walk"
Any idea?
Thank you for sharing.
Perfect 😂😂😂 so cute ❤❤❤ but also freeking cute 🥰
Ya 👍 Great work
so cool
When I think of walking robots, I too think of a white horned gorilla in Star Trek 😂
what🤔

I can assure you, your comment is misguided.
