The human vertebra is a terrible catalyst to work off of. It has too many moving parts and is unsteady as well as impractical for introducing a large amount of power draining servos. This is one of the reasons you don't see many humanoid robots with legs. Might I suggest a reinforced framed torso instead.
This is a year ago, so I might be suggesting something already done, but the human spine is held by the tension of elastic ligaments, and moved by tendons that also help stabilize the spine against the motion of weight. So perhaps a surgical rubber tube between the four axis of the spine would be useful for enhanced mobility.

I printed the skull based on the model on Thigiverse here: www.thingiverse.com/thing:819046 (you can see my make here: www.thingiverse.com/make:618611). After printing, I "sculpted" using a soldering iron in the places where I needed to make space for the electronics. At some point I hope to be able to have a modified skull model ready for 3d printing.
i would not use a premade pi bord. its to big. the best thing is use a fast microcontroller and a ram chip and a flash chip and solder it on your own circuit board. that way you can fit the hardware into a much smaller space. a basic computer only need a fast microcontroller chip, a memory chip and a flash chip for storage. the programming can write directly to ram segments and then byte copy directly to flash segments one byte at the time into blocks. you only need to store values in the first segment on the flash drive that tells the adresses of the other segments. the best thing is to write the whole code in assembly and write your own bootloader code. that way, nobody can steal your data as most programmers will look for a partition table that holds list of file names and folders. when you write directly between ram and disc, there is no need for such a lookup table and most programmers simply will not be able to recognize any data on the flash storage. it will all seem like garbage. this way, you can use all available processing power of the microcontroller and run things way faster than a system in a high level language with a much more powerful chip. speed is no limit as a 8 bit processor at 20 mhz can outperform a 2 ghz intel pc if coded efficiently in assembly so a processor of 80 mhz 32 bit can handle even more data. by writing in assembly, be able pro make the software far more efficient that the high level garbage code on these pi boards as your talking directly to hardware and not to a load of other chips.
Hi Devara. Yes! The InMoov robot is pretty cool. The first hand and neck for my robot project were inspired by that open-source project, and there a lot of things to learn from it. I would love to hear how you used the InMoov robot at your school.
Devara Gard That’s great! I get a lot of inspiration for my projects just by browsing thingiverse.com and then adapting the models as needed. For example, here are the models for some of the components of my robot: www.thingiverse.com/ppaula/designs For custom designs I use Tinkercad - easy to use and for now it does what I need it to.
Excellent work! I've been contemplating this very project putting my 3D printer to good use. I think Disney animatronics will be a good resource. The human skeleton is a good base.
Zombie Bot Building the robot is enough of the challenge to keep me busy for some time :) Especially if I target for human level capabilities. Defining when it is “finished” would be a challenge. But the journey is fun!
@@paulaslab the thing is that when I think that I done a kind of machine I start making a new one hahaha it amuses me because I never finish, however I agree with you!
Paula If you don't mind me asking where are you from? I so want to collaborate with you as my grandson and I are also building a Humanoid Bot right now but we are doing it more as a semi soft design with many pneumatic actuators & micro pumps and check valves to get the movement. We want to base it on a series of cell phones as brains. As we are not programeres We will try a different approach to the programing of the unit. In as much as, ounce we have the system built and have run tests to be sure its parts work together as they should Then we will build a twin gembell system ( like a full body puppet frame with 2 sides that mirror each others movements ) unit to put it in and on another side we will have a person train the bot by doing the moves we want it to learn while it records the way its parts are moving ( Like I trained every one of my children to ride a bike in 15 minutes each muscle memory I think would be the technical term ) anyway I would love to chat with you if you might like . We will be watching to see how your build comes out. Oh and ask me how we will cheat a bit to make getting ours to walk with very little extra trouble. This seemed to be a real issue for the big labs for a while was wondering if they6 would ever figure it out. oh well some times people are to smart for their own good. See you .
Awesome to hear that you're working on building a humanoid robot as well. I'm living in Copenhagen, Denmark, and building the robot in my free time. It's an amazing hobby and it is also a great opportunity to let your creativity go wild. Each robot is different :) I'm looking forward to see your project - I hope that you will share your progress somewhere.
Looks really amazing! You could use a Pi Zero if you want to fit a Pi in the skull. That’s what I did for mine. Also Intel and Google have a great Neural Compute Stick for fast processing offline.
Thanks! Yep, in my next iteration of the skull I actually fitted an RPi inside without problems, and I'm also working on using the Google Coral. Would be nice to see your design - are you sharing those somewhere? :)
better to make one out of steel. i just wish people was as good with the programming as their skilled as craftsmen of imitating human form making doll like replicas of people as robots.
The neck is amazing
Adding neoprene in between the vertebrae will add stability and easier to control with servomechanisms
Plz anybody tell we have to but robo kit or they created by themself

Hi Paula, can you publish the 3D models of this system ???

Super
U buy it's part or creating yourself
Will you be publishing yours as a 3d printable project? Maybe with an instruction series at some point?
Yep, that’s the plan :)

Can you give a tutorial on how to 3d printer the skull ?

Just stumbled upon your channel, the project looks really interesting, looking forward for next updates!
Thank you! And if you're interested in more frequent updates, you can also check my instagram: instagram.com/paulaslab/
@@paulaslab how to create robo body
Can make tutorial
Yep. Will do when I get to a more "stable" version of the project.
Thanks for replying and I am a huge fan of your robot and your videos
great job keep up the good work.

my school also build something like that, its called inMoov humanoid
