playgo robot (Q34647)

here's a flickr set for this bot http://www.flickr.com/photos/sixmilliondollardan/sets/72157616240288122/ the zip file is a bunch of solidworks files. SW2006 i think. but i can't remember exactly. i will try to find my parts spreadsheet and toss that up as well. Spring 2008. I designed and built a simple torso for a Go playing(manipulation driven, not strategy) robot for Prof Rod Brooks at MIT CSAIL. Postdoc Eduardo Torres-Jara works on the motor drivers, control, and hand design. Josh Kargas did some of the electronics mounting and routing. Robot has 6 Series Elastic Actuator degrees of freedom. But waist is locked out and shoulder joints have the spring shorted out. DOFS: waist yaw shoulder x 2 elbow x 2 wrist vertical axis x 1 wrist rotation axis x 1 neck pitch x 1 head tilt x 1 head pan x 1 yes analog sensors. potentiometers are awesome.
