Humanoid Robot HRP-2"Promet"

HRP-2 is the final robotic platform for the Humanoid Robotics Project headed by the Manufacturing Science and Technology Center (MSTC), which are sponsored by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) through New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO).




·Many DOF system despite light weight construction: 154 cm Height, 58 kg Mass and 30 DOF
·Cantilevered crotch joint structure allows for a walk in confined area
·Highly compact electrical system packaging to forgo "backpack"
·Experiments to realize "walking on uneven surfaces," "tipping-over control," "getting up from a fallen position," and "human-interactive operations in open spaces" are planned.
·Users will be able to develop application software due to open architecture.
