Very cool, I'm excited to watch your progress.

Could we all agree, that there's several people doing the same? We should have a open human framework so we can all work together.

keep it up !!

Brilliant! Looks strong. I'm also engaged in a humanoid build project - currently struggling with the strength vs weight problem. I think I'm going to have to upgrade my servos like you did. I really like your robot's arm-twisting movement. Looking forward to more updates.

Look into cycloidal gearing. There are some powerful 3D printable actuators on KZbin that may work.

@@NakedSageAstrology Thanks! 🙏

Very cool. Soon, with upgrades and innovations throughout, it will be able to do various chores, even painting the house with exacting detail beyond human painters. I want to ask a.i. to rig up some python openCV for performing audits with its sensor choices. These can be stereoscopic vision type surface detection, or for gradient levels of touch to help it determine object weights before lifting them and using them, such as a paint brush to and from a bucket, or regulating an air brush, drill, maybe even welding and hammering away, feeding materials into laser cutters and printers to start its own family.

great

Very clean design!

[@truetech4158]

There is also hydraulics that can include a lightweight manifold designed to recycle the pressures of air or fluids. Air muscles that could operate without losing system pressure for things such as walking or sync'd running, perhaps able to require less of a power source to lug around within its framework. The framework ideally would also be designed to be the battery itself, as if the weight of a human's bones could easily be a structural battery, even with a dermis that is somewhat flexible solar with a outer dermis such as 3m very durable stretchable vehicle wrap. These can be self sentient with a.i. at the frontal lobe of its CPU. We better be nice to them, no terminator scenarios with humans bartering for human rights, robots doing the same.

I will be curious about the details of running the Pi5 on the 5v bus. I have had a lot of difficulties being able to run the Pi5 and full max CPU usage without being throttled or low voltage warnings. I have tried a lot of things, and the best results so far are a DC battery supply feeding an automotive inverter feeding the Pi5 factory power supply. Very kludge and inefficient. Doesn't do well in mobile robotic use. The core issue, it seems, is the Pi5 does some wizardry with the USB C port.

This perfect length arm... Kindly let me know the lengths

[@boltvalley3076]

How long is the arm from lower arm to the shoulder. I just needs the exact figures
