  • Head done.. waiting for the nervo board to arrive.. still searching for local shop that sells the servos

    • Hello Nikodemus!
      Great! did you set leds in the eyes or did you do something else?
      I just checked your Nervo Board was shipped on the 23 of December, same date you did the purchase. There might have been some delays with posts due to Christmas and New Year. It should be expected by now!
      Keep up the good work!

      • Hello Gael,
        The LEDs come from the webcam i use.. i just adjust the to make it round to fit the eyes. Yes.. the delay should be from xmas and new year holiday.. cant wait for them to arrive..

    • Just be careful with price comparison. I once went to a local shop because I did not get the servos as planned from hobbyking and payed about 3 fold for the parts.

      • i will.. thx for the info. its just because in my country they tax anything above $50 and the tax is ridiculous high..

    • Hello Taiwan!
      Thanks for posting your time lapse video!
      Do you plan on using InMoov in your class once it is built or is it for a personal project?

      • When I finish,I will plan on using InMoov in my class.
        I teach computer courses in the public elementary school, government pay my salary.
        The last two years, I teach about Arduino and maker.
        Arduino is an open-source electronics platform based on easy-to-use hardware and software. It’s intended for anyone making interactive projects.
        I have been…[Read more]

    My Project: InMoov on Taiwan
    I share my build process using time-lapse.

  • So here is the basic inMoov hand controlled by LEGO MINDSTORMS. My plan is to see how far I can use inMoov and LEGO together

    • Hi, I used to coach a USFirst FTC Robotics team and we used NXT/EV3 units as the controllers for our bots. We used LabView, which is a more robust version of the Lego Mindstorms software. It loads into the EV3 just like the basic MindStorms software and there is pretty much nothing you can’t do with LabView. And the best part is that shares…[Read more]

    • Hello Simon, thanks for posting your project on the site, as I told you on Twitter, I did relay your youtube video on my Google+, because I’am sure it can bring interest in many minds!
      I have never played with MindStorms Lego.
      But was born in 1964 and Lego was introduced in France in 1967 (I think) and it was my favorite toy and developpement…[Read more]

      • Your awesome project is my focus this year, I am not sure how far I can go but I have a few robotics platforms (LEGO, VEX, Tetrix, Fishertechnik) to use with this project. I may also try and do a native one using servos and your boards.

  • I’m almost finished with the mechanical build and the testing of each servo individally. Next step is to purchase / build and install all the electronics and batteries. The back is still a bit empty.

    • Super cool !!
      Your choice of colors remind me of Leonardo’ super hero:

      How is the Raspi doing for post processing video tracking on MyRobotLab?
      I will post the Back Parts soon…

      • You should post your pictures in your album, you might get featured on the side page.

      • I get about 2 FPS when doing facetracking. That is good enough, however I also get 5 seconds latency, and that a bit to much. I have tried using the camera outside MRL and I get good results from the camera. I can stream at about 30 fps about .2 s latency. That is good. I had a problem that took me some time to figure out. The java runtime that…[Read more]

        • I would love to have this on my desk, I only have a head so far, and that’s controlled by LEGO

        • I also realised some time ago that using the latest version of MRL which uses OpenCV 3.0 that I would get a low fps result. I was recently mentionning that to Grog and he said he would digg into it.
          So, using the Lenovo tablet touchpad with the version 1.0.107 gets me with a a fps of approximately 30.
          Using the version 1.0.954, gets me to a 7/10 fps.

    For information, i\’va put an arduino nano in the head to take care of the face animation, actually, i have \’normal mode\’, shown in picture, \’terminator mode\’ (red with round eyes), \’ironman mode\’ (iron man mimic), and \’cylon mode\’ (see galactica)…
    I will try to make some pictures of other mode and send them also…

    • Hello Alain,
      Very nice! Did you try hooking your Arduino to MyRobotLab? You could voice speak to command each face animation.
      Doesn’t comment reply work for you? I see you post new post after each other.
      Let us know if you have problems with the site community buttons.

    Hello, here are some picture of my face change, i wanted to animate the face with less behind a grid, to have more freedom about the type of animation that could be possible. Here is the actual result…

    • Awesome!
      This is nice to create facial expressions!
      I’m a bit sorry to see InMoov’s face is gone though, I had been sculpting the face during my whole summer vacation…
      Anyway, i would love to see a video with various animations and expressions if you already have the code for it.
      What software do you use or plan to use?

  • Back to work on InMoov after dealing with a bout of Prostate Cancer. Using EZ-Robots for now. I have a lot of controller here so want to use up.

    • Hello Jack,
      Sorry to hear about your cancer and very glad to hear you are back on your feet!
      Bonne Année et Bonne Santé!
      Keep us updated with your progress.

      • Nice to see you are back at it. I hope all is well. I’ve seen your progress on EZ Robots forum. Don’t be afraid to post questions here or there if you have any. I am wondering what your plans are for the 2 cameras you have in your InMoov.

        • Hi Bob,
          Thanks for the thoughts. Using 2 cameras in head but only one active now. Try to move platform top mobile self contained. I tried answering you via email last week but I guess I need to use forum to answer now. Are you the Bob in South NJ? Your project is fantastic! Keep in touch.!

      • Hi Gael,
        Thanks for the thoughts!
        Working through treatments and will be stuck at home for several months. I intend to make my InMoov self contained mobile unit when done.

        Another subject!

    hello you can see my video about my easy plateform here
    you can see battery removable easy when it is discharge change by a new


  • Small video to explanation the driving system of my plateform and the locking mecanism for to be able to push InMoov by hand while driving direction with the remote.
    I\’m in the process to make a very small remote transmitter which could be held within the palm.

    • Thanks Gael, now I see how it all works. I like how you can detach the drive wheel to push it around manually. See my comments on Sebastiens’s post.

    • @Bob, to answer your previous questions on Sebastien’s post:
      The base can carry InMoov easily. You can add at least 10kg and the base can still ride fine as long as the floor is flat.
      When I use InMoov in the street, the wheels can overcome some holes if it rides full speed. If you look at my video, you can see a battery carrier between the two…[Read more]

  • A PIR module added to my inMoov robot.

  • Airwin InMoov driven with a wireless PS2 gamepad

    • I like your drive system. Can you share some details about the components you used to build it – motors, servos?

      • Thank you Bob, this InMoov plateform is widely inspired from the one Gael made. My components are coming from old broken stuff to make it low cost as it is a temporary solution waiting for legs :-).

        The arduino uno that manage the inmoov neopixel ring is now also used to read commands coming from a wireless PS2 Gamepad ( thanks to Bill Porter…[Read more]

      • Sebastien and Gael, Thanks for sharing the details on your bases. They are very simple and efficient. How much weight can the base carry/move around. Gael, yes, EZ Robot can do the voice controls as well. I can run my drive motors with Voice command, or manually on the computer or mobile app. I’m looking at building a lighter base like this but…[Read more]

    hello everybody i build a plateform for inmoov it is a very easy plateform very cheaper
    it is my first prototype in card board so if some people are interested i can send you plans

    • Nice work! It is amazing what you do with cardboard ! Can you share some information about the motors you used?

    • Amby the King of Cardboard!
      As I commented on your post on MyRobotLab, you could make Thingy on Thingiverse with the DXF and all informations of the motors, wheels and sources. Some builders could reproduce it in PVC or plexiglas.

      • hello gael yes of course a can give everybody plans for built it this plateform very cheap but in first i builf in cardboard for prototype and when all is ok i give plans and informations

    • Hey cool, you are also printing the Mid and Low Stomach parts!
      I hope the tutorial is explicit enough, specially about the servo connections.
      You have assembled the Nervo Board, are you happy with it?

      • Hello Gael. Thanks for compliment. The nervo Not Yet but the circuit and diagram look fine. For the servos no problem to understand, but for the shoulder, the servo system doesn’t work fine. The contact between the worm and the gear is too hard for the servo. I’ll try to print again with 0.9 resolution….
