Title: RoboBuilder 5710K
Post by: Webbot on September 17, 2008, 08:39:48 PM

Am thinking of programming a humanoid - but building/buying one is expensive!!!

But this one seems pretty cool.....

this page has the videos:

The servos look pretty neat. Each servo has its own ATMega8, feedback, and PID, so that they have '0.8 degree' accuracy.

This is the 'cheapest' I could find - ( cheap !  ;D ).

Anyone have other suggestions, comments?

Looks decent for the price.

When you get tired of just programming motions and want to add sensors for intelligence, you can always mod it with an Axon :P
