DIY Servo Robot!

Here’s a really cool DIY Servo robot built with *very* expensive servos, at $200-300 each!  Of course, you can buy a similar consumer product like G-Robot from Japan here too.

First post here but figured I would share my most recent work; an RX-64 servo based custom humanoid robot named Giger. This bot was designed in Autodesk Inventor, and machined from 5052 alloy aircraft aluminum using a Sherline 2000 CNC and some work from Big Blue Saw. He stands 62cm tall, weighs about 5kg and uses a total of 16x RX-64s and 8x RX-28s. Video shown is rough initial progress, walking gait still needs a lot of work and the IMU data needs to be integrated for dynamic balancing.
