    Hello everybody. I haven’t been on in a while, 8th grade got a lot harder, but I am happy to say that I am almost done printing all of the pieces to the right arm. I am just waiting for Amazon to stock back up on HK15298B servos. I will share my results as soon as I am done assembling the full arm.
    Good luck to you all,
    Grant

    Hi all, I am part way through printing the hands, but I cant find much info on the second servo for the thumb. Can anybody tell where I find information on this?

    Thanks Richard

    • Hello Richard,
      There isn’t much info on that, most information you will find are directly on the Thingiverse. I haven’t seen many hands printed with the extra DOF for the thumb.
      http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:28124
      Hopefully, somebody will come here to help you on that here.

      • Hi Gael
        Thank you for your help, I will look at the link and decide what way to go .

        Regards Richard

    Iam from Turkey, ı havent left hand and ı use myo hand prosthesis . my prosthesis little and not like my orijinal hand. ı have under 6-7 cm elbow and prostesis to the wrist and ı limb gloves.
    ı want immoov hand. ı want ask what is weight ? because weight is important for me. my ampute short. and is inmoov hand strong?
    thanks.

    • Hello Mustafa,
      The InMoov hand version1 is rather light, but the servos are set in the forarm which is not always usefull for prosthetic purpose. Depending on the material you will use to print the fingers it can add resistance. Carbon 3D printing is the strongest I have seen for now regarding weight and strength.
      InMoov hand version2 is not ready…[Read more]

    A demo of the stomach rotation

    • Hi Bob

      Very cool movements .

      As you have done to make the system of wrist motion up and down ?

    • Ah cool!
      Finaly you can post videos again!
      I see you replaced one hand with the Flexi hand?

    • Nice video, Bob!
      I see the wrist also has a movement linkage. You might want to share your work with Juerg, as he is also working on something similar.

      • Yes, I hacked a flexihand and put the servos for the fingers in the palm of the hand and added a servo for the additional wrist movement. I have also just finished adding flexible joints to the original InMoov hand and it works pretty good and can hold objects fairly well. I posted a couple of videos on Youtube about the flexihand.

      • RIght, you take a new route with servos inside the hand – very nice!
        My bending wrist uses another servo in the forearm and a few modifications on the existing wrist and hand parts – and it integrates a position sensor to allow the hand to stay horizontal. I am waiting for some cabling stuff as I want to have the forearm pluggable to the elbow.…[Read more]

    • Looks great! The flexihand seems better controlled – is that due to a design improvement in the parts or just better tuning during installation?
      PS I think we should chip in to buy you some switchplate covers so you can program your bot to install them 🙂

  • Jeffrey posted an update 10 years ago

    @admin Hi!
    I saw this http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:118031 but I only see the fingers, can you say me where are the other parts? is urgent! thanks!

    • The other parts are not released because I’m working on them.
      I released the finger to help prosthetic projects as long at is not for a commercial purpose.

    Hey, just noticed that a \”Bob\” can\’t post pictures, do we have a cross over account thing happening?

  • Beagle posted an update 10 years ago

    This is a bit weird, when I login as beagle and access the map to put in my location, it says that I can edit \”Slade2000 aka Bobby\”, that\’s not me? also it is using my friends email account(jock undies), I have never changed this and may be some default error? any ideas?

    • There is definitely a bug…
      We are trying to figure what is the problem.
      Updates with pluggins are a nightmare, it’s a constant maintenance, that eat our time.

    • Oh my!!

      • Is a pleasure To meet you, I have a question: Does The servo HK15298B is equivalent to Hitec 33322S HS-322HD Standard Deluxe Karbonite Gear Servo, as show it in your picture? ?????

        • Hey Rodolfo. I know you replied to Gael, but I just wanted to say that the HK1529B has equal (and in some cases, better) specs than the HS-322HD. It should work fine. That being said, I haven’t personally tested them, so I can’t attest to the quality of servo.

          • Really my question was to you Celeb. Many Thanks for your fast reply Already I’m waiting my first hk15298b servos, but here in spain is easier get the hi tec servos. But as you said the hk is better that hs, then I will continue using the hk because I’m not expert servos user to configure and hack another ones than are not in…[Read more]

    This is my inmoov hand 😀

    • Interesting picture, it almost looks like an undersea algea. The red pins are very flashy!!
      I see you already have set the tendons. Cool.
      Thanks for posting!!!

      • I am very glad you like it 🙂 , the hand is over, but I want to know when I can buy inmoov hand V2. After seeing the video has become my dream the night to program the hand InMoov V2. it would be nice that in the new version of the hand you put the heartbeat sensor (https://www.sparkfun.com/products/11574) so it would be enough to shake hands…[Read more]

    Robyn Inmoov (skin) sensor moving the arms

    • Well Markus, this works very nice. I can see how effective this works, and the sensors seem to be working well.
      I guess you could also use it to create gestures, if both arms were not coupled, using “capture gesture” voice command.

    • Yes i have both sensors working now thanks to Greg and they move separately.
      and it is very easy to create gestures.
      there are so many possibilities
      for example interaction with people.
      my experience is that many people want to touch and feel with their hands
      and now Robyn will respond to that.

    This is a test.

    • @Kevin, so I’m trying to figure how you proceed with the webGui, but I seem to just run into bugs.
      When I open the webGui I get old windows of InMoov hand that I tried a few months ago. I can’t seem to release those windows.
      I experimented under WindowsXP, could maybe that be the issue?

    Robyn Inmoov arm sensitive driving

    • Nice work, Markus! I see lots of applications for these touch sensors. I have also experimented with them.

    • Nice works, Makus! I see lots of applications for these touch sensors, giving a robot the sense to “feel” is huge.

    • Amazing! Looks great, easy to imagine this in a variety of applications…

    • Super Great Markus!!
      Actually we could make just a tactile bracelet for easy driving control!
      That would be easier to make, because I remember you saying in a video, that it was a bit difficult to make the sensitive forarms sensors. And the videos does show the difficulties of the task.

    Trying out some OLEDS for InMoovs eyes. they react to noise and light too!

    • Woooi, might be a bit scary for children!! But I see the point!!
      Does it blink the eyes lid?
      Nice finishing surface on your prints.
      Did you use car primer filler? Are you printing in PLA or ABS?
      It is what I do when I want a good finish job surface for to gunspray car paint. But it works easy on ABS, unfortunately the results aren’t very good on PLA.

      • Hi Gael – yes the Eyes blink, the iris gets smaller or bigger depending on the light. you are the expert!….yes printed at 100 micron, then sanded and sprayed with car primer filler.
        I have printed all Inmoov in ABS and all the gears and pistons in carbon fiber(very light and strong).

          Carbon fiber ABS or PLA?
          I have only seen carbon fiber PLA until now, but maybe it’s a new product.

          Car filler primer is great for finishing on ABS. I use a polyurethane brand, the only thing I discovered, is that you really need to wait to make sure your coatings are super well dry to see if the…[Read more]

    • Hi Gael – It is a Carbon fiber reinforced ABS mix. I must say it prints very very well. it wears your nozzle out though. I had to replace my nozzle after printing a 1000 grams of the filament. still well worth the price of a nozzle. I purchased from 3DXTECH in the usa.

      I will do a short demo video so you get the idea. still think I like the eyes…[Read more]

      • for those interested – The OLED eyes are from a project on the adafruit website. you can also customize to how you want it to look. lots of great ideas on there too……

    • nice eyes. how can it see if they are screens? do you have a camera mounted somewhere else?

      • If I decide to go this route, a camera will be mounted inside Inmoovs forehead. the color of the eyes can also be changed, red, cats eyes etc………..

    Hello,
    Just to share with you the very first wheel spin of Airwin this night. I hope the small motor coming from an old electric Kids Toy will not soon burn.

    • Ehi!!!
      There is something of a Déjà Vu.
      Using a golf caddie is a very good option!
      Is it sturdy enough? I am pretty sure your motors will do the job, InMoov is a light fellow!

      • Gaël, yes it’s widely inspired from what you do 🙂 . (i first write Wildly Inspired 🙂
        Sure “light is right”
        This Golf caddie is in aluminium so it is really sturdy, don’t know how many clubs it can support but one InMoov seems ok.

    • Nice looking base. How does it work? Do you have a video of it moving around?
