As we reported in the past, DLR is the proud creator of Justin a very advanced humanoid robot. Lately they have been working in a very robust robotic arm and hand system. The videos below show how they punish their robots with hammers and baseball bats in order to demonstrate how well they e
It becomes more and more obvious that robots outperform humans in tasks that require speed, precision and complex computations. The video below featuring Rollin' Justin, a mobile version of the well known Justin humanoid robot from DLR, catching two balls that are thrown at it. http://www.yout
DLR-Biped Schematics DLR's Institute of Robotics and Mechatronics unveiled the DLR-Biped a walking biped platform that could very well become Justin's legs (given they can support its weight). This outstanding platform was developed in a mere 10 months and uses technology borrower from previo
Justin is a German humanoid robot created at the Institute of Robotics and Mechatronics in Wessling, Germany. The robot comes in several versions, including one particularly intended for space with super easy to use arms and hands, a head and a torso. The aim of Justin is to go and repair satel…
The German Institute of Robotics and Mechatronics has run some experiments on man-machine collisions. Here, it's rather a case of a Kuku robotic arm against a mannequin head (the same as those you see in car crash-tests). This type of experiment enables the development of anti-collision and safet…
