Robyn Inmoov at maker faire Paris 2016
Thanks for sharing that video, Markus. Looks like it was a good time. Did Gael mention any time frame for the legs to be released ?
Alan Timm posted an update 8 years, 7 months ago
This is InMoov implemented in ROS URDF. This is the first step before you can integrate him with other tools, like Gazebo simulation or MoveIt! inverse kinematics and pathing. There’s alot of work left to do, but it’s coming along nicely.
Hi Alan Looks great, congrats! Are you using combined stl’s for the movable parts? I had startet to build them but it’s a lot of work and so far it’s by far not finished. Played around with kinetics (did you see my “look at hand”) but my math background it rather week and I am not really able to follow e.g. the stanford university lessons with…[Read more]
Hey juerg,
I do remember seeing that video, it was really impressive. One of the reasons that I’m moving over to ROS is for the inverse kinematics packages that are already there, like MoveIt.
It took me most of last weekend, but I was able to combine all of the stls that I needed to, reset the origins in MeshLab, then used robot_editor to…[Read more]

Yeah, I feel like the site is a dentist appendix.
the next step will be the controlling from the myrobotlab with the raspberry pi
If you have trouble, I may still have a complete script for InMoov ready to work on a Raspi.
So the video links are now online. I hope you can see how it moves
this is the rotation of the head from right to left
Hey Your InMoov has teeth!!!!!!……..keep him off the candy!. will you be releasing your design to thingiverse ?. great work !
Great! Yeah InMoov with teeth, I had done vampire fangs for InMoov a long time ago, but never just normal teeth. Surprising, I would have expected to make it more awkward. it fits okay!
Hi the teeht are not my design i found them on thingiverse. They are modded.
see through the left ear how the head is going to the front and to the back
See the head ist going to the right and to the left shoulder
this is the inner part of the neck

Printing another InMoov, because the original is going to stay home. It is a precious robot now! Having a second printer makes it fast, specially because I updated the firmware to Sailfish on the CTC printer. I used to print on Kapton with the ABS but finally got to print directly on glass which is giving a super result and surprisingly absolutely…[Read more]
PS: removal of the slurry ABS on the glass after print is done, simply run under cold water tab and it will detach itself like magic. Dry the glass plate and you are ready to go again.
Hi Gael – great info thank you.what is the consistency of the ABS slurry you use. your prints are look great.
The slurry is almost totaly liquid. It’s hard to say how much percent of ABS and acetone. Maybe 20 to 30 percent of ABS for 100 acetone.
Hi Gael I still think you should give HT-PLA a try and use a print plate that will not need any slurry or tape and allows to remove items by just picking them up from the cooled out print bed!
i am making inmoov right hand so can i get the Tensioner.stl file for it please i am not getting it anywhere can you please provide me the link of it
The tensioner is with the servobed in the galery…
InMoov body parts library :
I constructed a new neck with 2 axis inside and rotate from outside see my album for pictures
Looks great, nice prints! Can you post a video of it working?
Hi Bob,
at this time it is only possible to show every single axis working because my robotlab is not working so far. I try to make some videos this week end
Look forward to seeing it in action. I know it is difficult to implement more servos when running on my robot lab, that’s one of the reasons I switched to a different operating system to run my InMoov with.
I have this idea when i had soon need to use not implemented servo
leftPort = “/dev/ttyACM0” rightPort = “/dev/ttyACM1”
7 +i01 = Runtime.createAndStart(“i01”, “InMoov”) 8 +right = Runtime.start(“i01.right”, “Arduino”) 9 +right.setBoard(“mega2560”) 10 +right.connect(rightPort) #not implemented servo pin init right.pinMode(22,…[Read more]
you can use
servo = Runtime.createAndStart(“servo”, “Servo”) servo.attach(“i01.right”, 22) servo.setMinMax(0,90) servo.moveTo(45) etc
Hi it’s better thank you for the tip !
Awesome, post a video in action, it will be great to see the movements!

My printer is out of work for a moment… Gee what a smell, if you ever get your heated bed that burns out, you need to ventilate your workspace!! It took me a while to find a heated bed this size in Europe . 300x200mm. I finally ordered the PCB in Danemark.
wouaaa it is hotttt lol amazing
Oh yeah and it smells really bad in my workshop…
i can t think it is possible and so so dangerous
Uhh, Uhh, my printer manufacturer had changed his print bed product line to make it almost impossible to overheat it (you could fiddle with the control SW however). I assume some workshops could run into serious problems having the printbed burning through. Think about switching to PLA-HT (or HT-PLA) which is as good as ABS but prints on a 50…[Read more]
@Geal I guess it’s beause your heating bed’s temperature sensor have loose from your heating bed!! I suggest you check complete all your 3D printer’s switch, sensors to prevent this happen again…

i find this articulation interesting
no idea, what is this good for?
@Juerg, I’m guessing Amby sees it for the torso and stomach displacements. The two armonics drive must be for the shoulders. Though when you know how much an armonic drive cost, you back off a little. 🙂 @Amby, yes, it is on that U-joint principle that I had designed the stomach rotations.
Robyn Inmoov using webkit speech recognition
Aaaah the French beret!
Ah finally switching also to a more recent version!
ProgramAB with the webkit recognition works SO much better now.
Last version 1114 still had trouble with loosing an Arduino and the jaw got fixed in version 1113 by Kevin.
Wooooiii we are close to a steady version, waiting for it since more than year, ahaha.

Robyn Inmoov wonderful life
Finally robots will ask for vacation time???? Nice setup – how can I book it for myself?
Ehehe, once again Robyn is enjoying life for our own pleasure! Always makes me laugh a lot! Thanks for keeping up the cool videos.
A few more tweaks to my bicep remix, the parts are going on the printer today. This remix beefs up the bicep frames to 10mm.
Has anyone considered how much weight is being carried by the tiny little screw down the centre of the servo drive shaft that holds the horn onto the shaft? How big is on those servos, 1.5-2mm, 3 maybe?
Ya know, it’s an interesting question, and I don’t know what shear point is for the 2.5mm machine screw used. But in all cases where I’ve broken something, the plastic snaps well before the screw does. I’ve never had a problem with the servo horn set screw.
Not just the screw but the little thickness of the plastic horn under the head of the screw also.
Until now, 3 years of demos, I didn’t see issues with the horn part at screw level. Because I printed my parts in ABS with a 3 shell perimeter I never broke any of my bicep parts besides the early pistons which had a smaller diameter. So I’m guessing this beefier remix is ready for combat! 🙂

This is awesome! The 2 topmouth pieces have always been kind of a pain to work with, so that will help alot.
Yes indeed, I also did a reprint with fused topmouth after coming back from India, the head had been damaged in the suitcase during flight travel. It is much easier to assemble now.
Well it took me a while but it is done!
New builders will have a lot more fun to assemble the skull now. I have set screw and bolts holders in various parts to make the last fit much easier. You can use 3mm screws and bolts to attach the parts together. I modified: -TopMouth -SideHear -LowBack
Ahhh, great, I had started to add flabs n stuff to keep them from falling apart.

A Desktop InMoov. going good so far. spent time on the finish and added a few BlinkM`s for bling. running off a windows 7 tablet
WOW! That finish looks great!
Does the mesh connecting the clavicles near the neck get in the way of the shoulder pistons?
No. as he is not having arms fitted, just head and sensors. he’s as big as he’s going to get!. I have another complete inmoov
Wow, nice finishing! How did you do it?
printed the parts @100 microns then sealed the parts with Acetone vapor. then sanded several times, they sprayed with filler/primer then glossed. very similar to how rentaprinta finished his Inmoov
Hey nice work, looks great!!!! What are your plans for your “Desktop InMoov” ?
Hi bob – thanks. you can actually make Inmoov look very good with a bit more thought and patience on the finishing and build. its a great cosmetically pleasing robot.basically the idea behind it was to have a more portable one. so i can transport it and play around with the programming – plug in the power and sit it on coffee table or any room i…[Read more]

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.

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.
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).

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……

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………..

hardware and software in my mecanum wheel project
i have made some changes after this video because i needed more power to the motors but the sketch is sill basically the same
Markus, this is so great, I really love those mecanum wheels! Are you using the Joystick service of MRL? Where did you get these cool little joystick? Can they work as remote control without cable?
hello Gael ! no i am not using mrl on the arduino i want to be able move around without the need of the computer so i am working on serial communication between MRL and the arduino sketch insead
yes i am planning to make it wireless
so i can drive around in (transport mode) with inmoov off and when i turn inmoov on MRL can control the wheels as well
That’s great plan! I use the remote control that Alessandro gave me during the Paris Makerfaire to ride InMoov around when I need to go someplace, but I would like to be able to use it also in MRL with voice control. At this moment if I use voice control to tell him to drive I cannot take over with remote control.
Working on it 🙂
Robyn Inmoov is practice driving .
Very cool, Markus! How do you have the controls arranged? For instance, how do you distinguish between “turn right” and “go sideways to the right”?
Woaaaahhh awesome!! Now its time to make space in the house to let InMoov ride around!!! Just incredible to think you are able to build this wheel system with a 3D printer, ahaha! I have added your Thingiverse files to the InMoov collection. This is SO inspiring!

Other question about the camera, are you still happy with your…[Read more]
Well the hercules HD does a good job as far as what I do with it. But as I said it would be ideal to have a board for post processing things like tracking, face tracking, object color detections to let the computer do other tasks. The Pixy camera would be great but it is mounted on such a big board…
I will wait for this camera: https://openmv.io/ Leon has ordered them via kickstarter 🙂 This has the same results and is smaller ! I hope the price is the same like the Pixy cam.
The Pixy already used a 4-layer PCB, so it would be a hard work to make this smaller 🙂 Option is to ask for a sort camera-shield mount option.
I use the raspberry PI camera in one of the eyes of the modified head. It’s much better quality than a USB 2.0 camera. And the intention is to use the Rpi to do image processing. You can even find a really small version of the camera. https://www.pi-supply.com/product/adafruit-spy-camera-raspberry-pi/
@Marten, As you mention in private message the OpenMV could be a nice option because it is python based and Open source which could be easily added to MyRobotlab with no need to use an extra Rpi. @Mats, I personnaly would rather a smaller device than having to use a Rpi for the image processing, because with the tests I did using the Rpi the fps…[Read more]

We’ve already bought an Heading hold gyroscope (as used on model helicopters etc.) and will experiment with it trying to find balance. But I agree, it will probably be difficult to achieve.

Last night and today I’ve printed all the RobParts. Now I’m printing a new ServoBed and tomorrow I will start with all RotaWrist parts. When that’s ready, the complete ForArm and Hand are ready for use 🙂
Feeling like showing your InMoov is powered by MyRobotLab ? These little covers go on each shoulder.
Cool and sure, MRL deserved it to get placed at the shoulders from InMoov.
Servo Pulley can now be downloaded: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1052776 I will upload more sizes later these day\’s.
Awesome! I have added it in collection of derivatives.
Thanks Gael !
Last day of Makerfaire Berlin for Tonerwerk with his very nice InMoov. Check the pictures he posted on the forum: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/inmoov/vyEVQvZ0cjU%5B1-25%5D
So, during some spare time this day’s, I’ve printed a complete Right hand. All in PLA and everything fits well 🙂 My next step is to start with the Right underarm parts, so I can install all servo’s and connect these to all the Fingers.
Here some pictures from the complete Right hand:
Woouuiii ! Nice prints! Well now the forarm and you just about ready to have a Right hand!
Haha, I can’t wait… I’m printing the last day’s at Day and Night… 🙂 I hope the forearm is ready in about two day’s.
Next day’s I will check all the lengths which each finger needs to lift them completely with the new servo pulley. So I can start re-designing the pulley for each finger.

@ Bob Houston,
This looks awesome dude, great work and a cool upgrade to the InMoov !
I can’t wait to see some more video’s with the Eye tracking options 🙂
just WAHOOOO
Good idea, Gael, about an adjustment to prevent cross eyes. I have designed a new part that will allow for that adjustment. I have added it to the STL’s on Thingiverse.
Ah perfect! Hey but you can add comments? So it works now for you the community?
Hmmm, that’s strange that it shows up here but I can’t see my comment on the main Community page

For the complete Right hand, the Thump is ready:
Here a video again, with the new servo pulley which is specially designed for a Finger movement. It’s designed for servo’s which can turn a full 180 degrees. This Pulley gives a better torque and there’s less change to move to much to destroy the servo or finger. There are two option about the spring (in this video I’m using a elastic cord…[Read more]
Nice! So the white is the elastic cord and it runs all the way to the end of the finger, if I juge the white spot at finger tip. What kind of elastic cord? Don’t you think it will stretch more and more over time? I also can see the asymetric effect on the black braided line.
Hi Gael and thanks for your comment and time 🙂
The elastic cord is a basic peace which you normally will use for clothes. It’s now just to do the job of the spring. I’ve ordered some springs and have to wait they will be here.
I hope the asymmetric effect is in a positive way 🙂 At the end of the finger position, the servo can give more…[Read more]
Here some better pictures the new servo Finger pully together:
Interesting design! I like the idea to set the servo horn within the pulley. They might be a bit too thick to fit under arm covers though… Let us know.
Thanks Gael,
And good to now about the limited thickness. I will check this when all underarm parts are done. There is a easy way to save some hight if needed, I can include some holes for the two screws.
Hi Gael,
Just checked the hight and it fits fine.
I’ve made a other servo pully. I hope to get soon the springs because they are needed in this design. Here two pictures from a mounted pully at a servo and a picture with some views from the drawing:
Hi Marten I think before changing the pullies we should agree what the mechanical requirements are for the fingers. In my arms I use mg996R and they can turn about 110 deg to the left and to the right (total 220). So when Gael says he can move all fingers with the exception of the middle one with an unmodified HK15298 servo which allows only 45…[Read more]
Hi Juerg,
Thanks for your input about this.
The good thing to use a 180 degrees pully, is that there is less change to break any mechanical parts. A other good thing is, there is a higher resolution to place/hold the finger at his position. Have you seen my Finger Starter video ? Here I’m using a MG996R servo and it turns a full 180 degrees…[Read more]
Agree that individual pulley’s for your combination of servo and finger would be safest for builders. Just go 0 to 180 without having to worry about limits. I am rather the software guy and think – once the mechanical part looks good – I can control movements with the mapping function of MRL. For me the springs are rather an option to add a bit…[Read more]
Dreaming is a good part of your life 🙂
Sounds interesting about the linear resistor position feedback and the camera / google image recognition. I hope to see more if you have done some tests 😉
About the servo pully sizes, the size is based like the http://inmoov.fr/wp-content/uploads/stl/Forearm-and-Servo-Bed/servo-pulleyX5.stl They will…[Read more]
just started to print the ServoBed Part. I’ve edited the drawing to make it more 3D printer compatible 🙂 By some servo mount places it wasn’t the best way to print. Here the new drawing:
Hi Marten, Nice work! Did you post it on Thingiverse? There is other derivatives there: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1036300 http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:618449
Not yet, I first like to now if everything will fit well together. If yes, I will place it on Thingiverse.

That is a really nice back. Looks good and will protect all the electronics and hide some of the servos.

Hey nice Marten!! I like that Carbon PLA. I remember the parts you showed me in Eindhoven, the quality was very good! Pulley rotates 90 degrees because the HK15298B digital servo recommended for the hand rotates only 90 degrees. That being said, you can use any servo you like with Finger Starter and of course model your own pulleys. 🙂
Hey Gael,
The CarbonFil is more PET based ! And yes, it’s nice material to use but it needs some attentions for the first layer. (OK I’m still playing with some settings like Nozzle Temp and PrintSpeed)

Hey looks great. Many, many more parts to print however … I give a filing to the finger parts where they move against each other because the printing in layers creates imperfect vertical surfaces. I do not want your pieces get broken but does it feel like the you might brake the parts when assembling them? I broke several with PLA and ABS when…[Read more]
I don’t now yet with the fingers. The CarbonFil is great stuff and feels strong. I’ve used this to make some prototype parts for my Camera Gimbal. And it didn’t break 🙂 For now I’m still waiting for advice about which glue I can use for this CarbonFil.
I will come back to this question if I now more 😉
Hi thanks for your comment. What is your print bed made of and what temp / preparations do you need to make the pieces stick to it?
I got the same trouble. Happily with abs it can be repaired quickly with acetone. Some times after I found this tip, just heat to smooth the holes. It looks like Mats Önnerby tips with airgun to mount pla parts but with a solder iron. Have a look on this video : Hope it can help.
Hi Juerg and Sebastien,
I’m still using the standard clean glass plate from the UM2. After each print, I’m cleaning the plate directly when it’s still hot.
For CarbonFil I’m using a temp from 255 C and the heated bed is set to 60 C. I’m still playing with some settings. Most important thing is that the plate needs to be levelled well and very…[Read more]
I think I will sit down and create a video about my finger assembling techniques including the strings. Watch out for it.
Great prints Marten! In the video posted by Sebastien, the idea is great! Specially if you drilled the holes a bit too wide. But be sure that finger stays loose, in the video they are stiff, rigid, and that is not okay for the movement. The finger should move freely at each joint.
Haha, yes the video is good for all the joint parts.
I was more focused how to glue all fingerparts together like part-1 with part-2 etc…. CarbonFil is PET based and PET is difficult to glue normally. I hope the 30% of carbon-mix will make it easier to glue this together.

Finger Tip Sensors. Hi Gael, do you have any information on how to connect the sensors and or wiring besides the Assembly hand guild? I am not sure on what control board to uses.
Thank you. Merne
The sensors are connected to the Nervo shield board. The best is to add some resistances for each sensor connection. https://dlnmh9ip6v2uc.cloudfront.net/r/500-500/assets/e/7/2/5/5/50eb2efece395ffb21000001.jpg

Some countries can not view this video, because Youtube says it is a copy right issue, I own the CD. They keep removing the video.
It is not because you bought the CD, that you can use it as a soundtrack for your video. Which is a delicate combination on your video. By the way, it is interesting what you did with the EZ leds in the chest. Nice work!
Thanks Gael! I am using a RGB LED Array and bolted it inside the chest. BTY, any time frame as to when you might have the low hips for Inmoov? I know you hear this every day, but Thank you for sharing your awesome design!
Happy late Christmas everyone.

Woohoo, nice work. No video for Christmas?
Unfortunately I have little time at the moment and have some problems with the lighting conditions. My video has unfortunately become too dark greetings tom
No worry, maybe you get a new camera with Christmas. 🙂

Very good job Markus!! Scary when InMoov lean sideway, I felt it was going to fall, ahaha.
Totaly effective. Grog suggested to get the opening of the jaw bigger according to the level of sound using software, that would be good too.
