Giger - Custom Humanoid

And… getting ready for the Korean Robot Games Festival in a few days. Giger Fu is ready to compete in the professional division!

Whoa! I thought that thing was playing the drums for a second. lol

great work. very powerful. good luck with the comp. im putting my money on it. :wink:

does he bow? :smiley:

Great work! it look like this is something to be feared by other competitors.

Thanks guys! No bowing yet, but I’ve got to put a couple ‘fluff’ moves in there I suppose.

A lot of what I was demonstrating was how quick the interrupt protocol is within the controller. The ‘fencing’ type moves are actually just a single side attack being interrupted before it can complete the motion, it allows for some lightening fast reflexive moves, rather than being constrained to pre-made routines that must finish before another move can be executed.

The competition in Korea is pretty fierce though; I’ll be lucky if I make it through more than a match or two :stuck_out_tongue: Most of these guys have been preparing for years, I just started the kung fu side of this project a little over a week ago.

What’s missing is a pair of RED LED eyes. 8)

Hey guys,

Long time no update! After my 2 trips to Korea last year I came up with a ground-up redesign of Giger. This would be revision 4, all portions were completely redesigned and rebuilt. It now uses 14 EX-106+, 8 RX-64, and 2 RX-24F, a single 5S 18.5v 2000mAh LiPo, and a new mini Wifi IP Encoder/wide angle pinhole lens camera setup for vision.

This is my favorite biped of all bipeds in the world. I love the design. It just looks like a fighter bot.
