The simulation was rendered using Simulink and a pricise model of Bioloid Humanoid. The control technique involved 2 stages. The first (pumping) is a normal PD control. The second (close to the hand-stand position) uses an optimal control technique – LQR (Linear Quadratic Regulator).
The humanoid was reduced to a 3-body inverted pendulum model.

Controlling Bioloid Robot with a Television remote control

It seems simple but it is little complicated
First thing you got to do is to build the circuit you see in the video and connected to the bus of the Bioloid.
In order the Bioloid to see the circuit you must “speak the language” of the Bioloid’s bus and this is not so easy.
The circuit understands the RC5 IR protocol created by Phillips and returns the code of the button pressed to the Bioloid.

The address of the circuit, to the bus, is 50 (Bioloid has 18 servos, with the corresponding addresses and one AX-S1 module with the address 100).
You can see that when I am writing the command ping 50

The code is written with BascomAVR compiler and the processor of the circuit is ATtiny2313

We took the opportunity to get some up close and personal time with the Bioloid “Edutainment” robot kit from Robotis during the recent Robo-One 9 competition here in Tokyo. Robotis had a small exhibit to show off what the Bioloid can do, but didn’t have an official entry in the robot competition. The Robots Dreams staff was impressed by the modular nature of the kit, and its ability to be reconfigured into a number of different robot designs. You can read more about our experience with the Bioloid, along with the latest robotics news, information, hacks, reviews, photos, and robot videos, with special on-site coverage from Japan, at Robots Dreams – http://www.robots-dreams.com .

This is my robotic snake design. It performs short demo when front IR sensor detects object. I’ll call this Version 1 since I have been cooking up a second version.

This is the first Robotis Bioloid ever to do a complete cartwheel!

Although it looks like I am “helping” it in the second half of the cartwheels, I am not. My hand is 1 – 2 inches away. It was a reflex because of the few times William (the Bioloid in the video) slammed against the wood board in the back.

This is a “gerwalk” or bird-gated robot. Another std assembly from the Robotis Bioloid kit.
Main concerns in getting this thing to walk were (a) tightening all bolts REALLY well (but not over-tight), especially after the first run-through of the demo s/w, and (b) a REALLY hard surface to walk on.
The bot even acts a bit like a chicken, with jerky (cartoony) bird-like movement of the legs. In some cases even on a carboard-on-carpet runway, the jerks threaten to knock the thing over.
On a solid plank or desktop it behaves a bit better.
