Polymorph Bot Mimics Human Joints & Muscles

July 9th, 2008 by Conner Flynn

Walking tallIt ain’t pretty, but it gets the job done. What you see is a bunch of polymorph plastic, curtain rods, electric screwdrivers, and motors. Wooden sockets and curtain rings are the hip joints. Knee joints are kept moving with four motors, while a bunch of bungee cords and strings serve as muscles and tendons. The electric screwdrivers provide power for rotation. It looks small but the legs are 26-inches tall by themselves. It’s still in the making. Hit the link for more.
