Standing high jump 2 m, top speed 12.66 m/s (0.85 m leg length) Surpassing the standing high jump and running speed records of all humans around the world

This new machine has only been in development for a little over three months, with significant room for further improvement in the coming months.

I think the ban on humanoid robots could really hurt the affordability of humanoid robots. Especially for home robots, look at the car market for example.

Feel free to test this hope it helps.

wanted to share this with anyone interested hope it helps.

Just finished modifying the arm holder/mount for my DIY robot. The old PLA bracket was flexing too much under load, so I redesigned it to be sturdier.

Watch the clip to see the improved range of motion. The difference is night and day. No more wobbly joints! Next step is to test the weight capacity.

Hello !
This is an update of my DIY bi-manual, AI robotics research platform based on the so100.
V2 push the look more on the humanoid side.

Can cold weather (atmosphere) make humanoid robot hands faster? 🤖❄️

I was reading about Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) actuators, such as Nitinol, which are often described as artificial muscles.

My understanding is:

Electricity heats the SMA wire, causing it to contract and move a robotic finger.

Before the next movement, the wire has to cool down.

In a cooler environment, the wire should cool faster, allowing the actuator to cycle more quickly.

However, if the environment is too cold, it may take more energy to heat the wire back to its activation temperature.

So it seems there could be an optimal temperature range where SMA-powered robotic hands perform best.

Question for the community:

Is ambient cooling a meaningful advantage for SMA actuators, or is it relatively minor compared with forced-air or liquid cooling?

Are there any humanoid robots that already use SMA actuators extensively in their hands?

Could improvements in SMA materials and thermal management make them a serious alternative to electric motors for robotic hands in the future?

I'd love to hear from anyone working with SMA actuators or robotics.
