Building My Own Humanoid Robot


Today is a special day because we already decided to go ahead with the USB project. As for the things to explore with this USB capability, we would build a humanoid robot. This is not a joke. We already read through a book 'Build your own humanoid robot'. This is the book.
Based on the design, and the required parts, it is possible to make it. So from today now on, we will collect the necessary items to make this thing work.

There are 6 Austounding Projects given in this book
1- Robotic Arm
2- Personal Computer Interface
3- Visual Basic Control Software
4- Voice Recognition Control
5- Expressive Speaking Face
6- Bipedal Walking Robot

Of course we would not do all of them. But one thing for sure, once the USB hardaware arrived, we will make full use of it to modify the sample project to be controlled by a PC through USB interface. Good luck to all of the team members.
