Hello Gael
I’ve finally printed my way down to the stomach (Started at the finger) and I was wondering when you might release the abdomen like i saw on your video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9G8FDBgAxu0 I sure am looking forward to it. Now About those legs 🙂
Thanks for giving this project
- Gael Langevin replied il y a 10 ans et 5 mois
  
  We want pictures!!! Ehehe!
  As you may have read on the forum, I didn’t release these parts because they are directly related to the leg mechanisms which are under development. These parts are obsolete for that matter, I rather upload the parts when I’m sure to be satisfied the whole structure.
  But be happy, I have been working on InMoov’s back,…En afficher davantage

Hello InMoovers,

Last week I received my six servo’s for one InMoov Hand 🙂
I hope soon to start printing this.

Before I start with this, I like to upgrade my UltiMaker-2 with a new 3DSolex Olsson Block and a BuildTak 3D Print Surface.
I also ordered some extra Nozzles for this Olson Block.
– One RVS 0.4mm for printing with CarbonFil.

  Woouiii you are going to make wonders with that printer!
  You should have told me when we were in Eindhoven that you wanted to build the hand to make some tests with the hall sensor, I could have brought you one that I keep for my robot in case it breaks.
  Yeah, print first the finger starter it will be easier. Let me know for the finger tip design…En afficher davantage

    Hi Gael,
    
    Thanks for your offer about the spare hand 😉
    It’s no problem to print it myself, it’s a good test for my new UM2 configuration.
    
    I think there is a easy way to place a magnet in the top from the Vingers.
    This peace is printed in two parts, so I can drill a hole from 2mm in on of the parts.

  Very nice!
  I see that you are becoming a 3d printer master after being the king of cartboard.
  I’m guessing what we see is for the knee rotation, correct?
  Did you finally use the motors of the drills you bought or is it with a servo.
- amby replied il y a 10 ans et 4 mois
  
  yes you are true gael it is for knee
  yes i am always the king of cardboard lol i do all my tests with cardboard and when it is good i do on abs

  If not let me know and I will.

    I don’t check if MyRobotLab already have added the NeoPixelRing service ?
    - Gael Langevin replied il y a 10 ans et 5 mois
      
      Good!
      Well, no the NeoPixel Ring is not yet implemented in MRL.
      It actually means, it needs to run on a seperate Arduino dedicated only for that function.

I had several ideas when I started to print the head. The large servo was more expensive than a small, so I tried to replace it with a standard size sero. I also wanted to mount a better camera in the head than a USB camera. My modified head contains a Raspberry PI 2 with a Raspberry Pi Camera module mounted in one of the eyes. It also contains…En afficher davantage

  What sort of camera did you set in?
  I tested my full InMoov with the Raspi2 and was a bit disapointed with latency. The Odroid U3 was also having latency…
  Let us know your Rasp2 acts when you will be using speech recognition along with OpenCV tracking, so we can share comparison.
  - Mats Önnerby replied il y a 10 ans et 5 mois
    
    I use a Raspberry PI Camera module connected directly to the Raspberry CSI port. I has really good quality for still pictures and video stream is OK. I tried to use it with MRL and the OpenCV service, but I got some error messages. I will sort it out with the developers of MRL. Thay are all very nice, skilled and helpful people.
    - Gael Langevin replied il y a 10 ans et 5 mois
      
      Others have tested the Raspi Camera module into MRL with success. Your errors might be related to which version of MRL you are using.
      When I tested the camera with the Raspi2, I was using version 1.1.107 and it was working fine, though with latency.

This is a part of the Bicep. I use PLA, and it's not as soft as ABS. So when I tried to mount them together, it was impossible, because it wouldn't flex. But PLA gets soft at relativley low temperatures, so I used a heatgun at a low setting to heat the connections. After heating the plastics for a short while, it was easy to mount them together.…En afficher davantage

Hand and forarm printed in black PLA. I use recessed M3 screws to hold it together. I drill a 3mm hole in the part to be mounted. In the part that it should be mounted to, I first drill a 2.3 mm hole and then I use a 3mm taps to make a thread. It's not easy to make the thread straigth by hand, so I mount it in a drill.The 8mm screws are made from…En afficher davantage

    These muscles have no good control technology yet. It is difficult to organize the rapid heating and cooling. What characteristics of muscles were in your tests : resistance and the material of the wire, the voltage for muscle contraction, and what electronics did you use for that?

      The polymere wire was 0,8mm. The electric wire resistance was Nickel Chrome 0,3mm. I would vary the temperature of the resistance using a 220v light shader directly connected to the resistance. (dangerous tests…) So I haven’t calculated what Amps was drawn by the resistance.

Started to assemble the torso and also made a stand from an old office chair and chrome pole. This allows me to move and work on InMOOV much easier. Also included back of torso. I had a difficult time trying to figure out how to mount the servo holder but I think this is correct.

Took the seat off of an old office chair. This will act as a base for the torso to get mounted to. I added an adjustable metal pole to this stand that you can see in another picture.
