Thanks for posting this mindless. I have watched it 3 times so far and can’t get enough. If you go to their website check out their ‘singer’

Cool,,,, Modding Inmoov is very addictive –,,

You are physically younger than I expected!
The question now is, will you pose next to your robot or again with a bus the next time we see you?
🙂

I will work it out this today,because your drawing looks different like i done,maybe i need to mirror a part

nice work, that should save some $$$ on new servos 🙂

Yes!
Now we are talking about maybe InMoov walking for 2018.
First InMoov step was done in 2017, but with legs that couldn’t really support the body parts.

Nice prints you have there 🙂
Which brand of filament are you using?

https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2730536

That is one of the better parts to print all in one.

Ahoy Mindless!
Most excellent work

Thank you 🙂

Hello Mindless,
You must have the first version, this was an issue that was reported a few days after I posted the parts. I have modified since then. ( I had mixed a piece of the motorized legs with the non motorized when uploading)
ThighLowRightV3.stl
ThighLowLeftV3.stl

Cool, when InMoov does Shakespear!
Lots of phrases to add in the script.

Nice work Mindless 🙂
I’ve posted a rear end view here: http://inmoov.fr/members/acapulcorolf/album/picture/1152/

Thanks for posting Mindless!

It’s very interesting to see how the legs were mapped based on my 3D scan of full InMoov. Great work with the leg mecanism!
Someday InMoov will walk!

Looks great! You may want to put the bolted joints of the socket, front and back or else the side servos may hit them.

Nice and smooth.

Cool,,, which software ya using for the model-?,, its looking good–,,

Super, I love to see these progress!

Ohh Yeah,,, don’t forget to “Hot Tap” the Screws in or you split them again,, just use a Candle or a Tea light – heat the tip of the screw until you just feel the head staring to burn your finger tip-

Hi Mindless, hoping that you can work your magic on this particular variant too…

Start of a New Mod on Bob/Alans 3 Stage Neck System–
I want to be Able to Print or Make the Ball for the Ends separately ,, this is a Mod iv wanted to do for a while (not sure how it will turn out) — has anyone else out there replaced the Printed Ballends with a Tie Rod or Ball Joint –?

As you can see the worm gear still needs a bit of work,, the slight Taper at the top was settings error ( printed to slow and to hot)—but its tough as hell ,,,took 40kg of pressure with ease – got the 100% infill dialled in nicely which is Make or Break when it comes to the Strength of the Part,,,,

Ha..Ha – He looks Confused–,,
The Prints look fantastic and that Bottom Photo is awesome–,,

I have good luck sculpting the perfect shape while it is still hot. Sometimes I melt a kg in a pan and hand mold a perfect part. In fact I sold my printer long ago.

Great. But you need a big printer?

I printed one but it won’t work. I can’t figure out how to plug it in.

Hello Mindless,
Thanks for the help you provide to the other builders.
You can check from time to time the Update list that I keep for people to track what I have changed:

Upload & Update List

In the Gallery I kept the older version of the shoulder in a seperate directory for people that might still need the Older Version. It also…[Read more]

What’s that?
I like your style. Mostly CAD for now or are you printing parts?

Agree. It is like an early Christmas

Gearbox’s have been test Printed a few times to work out any bugs … still a couple of Minor bugs to fix—I wanted them to be Print&Play ,,,, No to very little clean-up work needs to be done just screw and bolt them together so fine tuning is everything– I’ve got some time off so want to get this section finished ,,,,as you can see the design lo…[Read more]

Hello Mindless,
I’ve had similar problems, and more recently I was unable to upload the latest photos of Fred’s foot I just printed, however I had an internal server error when going to the album to upload.

Have you worked out what bearing sizes you need yet?
and have you uploaded the stl files yet?
Curious minds beg to know….

It looks good so far.

I’m looking forward to seeing it walk unaided… 🙂

I don’t understand how the bolts hold in place. The one of the wrist has a clip, but the two in the palm do not. Can you advise?

Looks great!
Keep it up

Your second test seems quieter, or that a deception? Did you make changes to reduce the noise?

Nice to see. Are you planning to use 32 servos in the head, or is the plan to move one of the PCA9685’s to the body. I use one in the body and one in each arm. That makes the cable routing much easier and opens up for adding other i2c devices, like IMU, AD converters and other funn stuff. I have a few new i2c devices on my desk, waiting for me to…[Read more]

Hi Mats
The 32 servo connections over I2C will cover all the connections for eyes, neck, fingers with some to spare

I’m running with 20Kg PDI 6221-MG servos for the heavy duty lifting (biceps, shoulders, hip rotation).

Those particular servos don’t seem to play nice with the PCA9685.

It looks like it may be related to the guidance here on…[Read more]

great

great

Hi Rolf, I am very impressed with the fun move hand. It looks excellent. I’m going to build one as well. I have ordered flexible pla for the joints. Am I correct in assuming you only run five strings to the servos to close the fingers and you don’t need the other five strings to open them as well?
Can you tell us more of what you have done with…[Read more]

Very cool Richard. Looks like you are having some design and print success.

Wow, it looks great. What motors do they use? And what torque do they have to move their legs? I have been designing mine for 4 months and hopefully soon move them. regards

Wow Richard that looks amazing. Have you got arms to go on it yet?

That won’t work for this application for a few reasons… First and foremost no two servos accurately position the same… And if they don’t they tend “fight” each other… A second reason is you would have to solder the pot to both circuit boards… again, won’t work… see reason 1… The simplest and only way is to follow the tutorial Gael wrote….

OK, I’ll bite. What is it?

Hello Richard,,, I’m pretty sure your skull cap is on backwards,,,, or mirrored,,,, or-the parts are back-to-front and on the wrong side,,,,, actually ,,,I’m not sure how the hell you done that,,,lol

Mindless, I have downloaded your 3D InMoov Man – nice work. Should I be able to move parts around so I can see the internal parts? The drawing loads as a “Read only” file in SketchUp. Or is the drawing just that, a drawing of the assembled parts?

Downloaded these this morning. Very nice.

Looks nice! Have you posted the .stl files someplace?

I am not sure of the purpose of this but I get the feeling it will be of great use to a lot of people. What should I use this for?

That is very cool. Thanks for sharing it!

Cool ! SketchUP is very popular and easy to use. By the way, where’s the link to the Sketchup-InMoov?

ehhh, nice perspective. looks like a lot of work to position the many parts at the right location and orientation

Click on the home page http://inmoov.fr/
Mid-way down you will see “Builders near you”

Yes, how do I place a marker on the map.

Thank you, all

Great and Nice work MindLess.
Thanks for sharing your experience with all InMoovers 🙂

Regards,
Marten

very nice

WOW this and the previous post are GREAT, what software are you using?

very nice

Hi Richard. Try this guide. I hope it helps. http://myrobotlab.org/content/uploading-mrlcomm-arduino-0

The file servo.h should come with the installation of the Arduino IDE.

Thank you, The problem is the new Arduino 1.7.11, it’s a compiler problem when including a library from within a library. I place a reference in the INO the resolve that problem but open others. Thank you

How is it working in SketchUp with the native STL files?

Thanks for the image. I’m adding it into the tutorial 3Dsketch views. It will certainly help other builders.
Sketchup works pretty well with STL as long as the files do not have too many vertices. Many CAD softwares like to abuse with curves on all the edges and corners, which creates super heavy STL. Sketchup may then start to be very laggy. My…[Read more]

Hello Mindless,
Thanks for posting the picture. I have added it to the chest and torso 3D sketch view.
I see you do not have my ThroatLowerV1.stl, but a variation, which might confuse some builders though.

Great work. I used your previous version on my head. Really liked the streamlined look.
Will you post thes files up?

Great Mindless!
Just for info, there is some parts already available in the InMoov derivative collection, but I’m sure you must have seen them already.

no idea, what is this good for?

Very good progress Amby with your robot! Is the wheel platform large enough to keep the robot in balance when you drive it around?

hello gael thank you yes the wheels plateform is enough for balance
all is ok with my prototype cardboard so now i start to build in wood

Nice idea with the rechargeable batteries. What kind of motors are you using?

Very nice Amby!
It seems to have good speed with those electric car motors.
I really like your battery idea,! If I wouldn’t fly the globe with my InMoov robot, I would go for your solution!
Unfortunately we may not carry batteries like that in planes. The very common 6VAh batteries can be bought almost in every country, so when I arrive in a…[Read more]

Fantastic Amby, Whaoo two motors and two batteries !, you are ready for the InMoov Racing 🙂

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.

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.

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
i use a drill motor for castorama 11 euros motor batterie charger ans very strong

Ehi nice project Amby! some videos in action!! And specification details!
Controlled by MyRobotLab?
Other builders will love that.

Hey cool, you got a InMoov cap!!
