Just came across this lil guy today.
What this shows me is that 1.25-ish meter (about ~4 foot 1 inches tall) humanoid robots are easy to build with off the shelf components now. That's crazy.
Height of other short king humanoids:
- The unitree G1 is 1.27m tall
- The unitree R1 is 1.21m tall
- The amazon Sprout is 1.07m tall
- The 1x NEO is 1.68m tall
I haven't done the math on the full BOM, at this scale you're machining some aluminum. (Although I wonder how far you could get with some CF-Nylon PPA prints?)
It looks to be about $5000 in actuators for this configuration, a bit more if you wanted to add in a multi axis waist and/or actuated neck, hands etc.
These guys are using Damiao bldc integrated gearmotors, similar to the RobStride ones it seems.
I've uploaded their design to my onshape account to get a better look at it.
