6. WHAT IS A HUMANOID ANYWAY?
Humanoid refers to any being whose body structure
resembles that of a human: head, torso, legs, arms, hands.
But it is also a robot made to resemble a human both in
appearance and behaviour.
The difference between a robot and android is only skin-
deep, looks exactly like humans on the outside, but with
internal mechanics of humanoid robot.

7. WHY TO DEVELOP
HUMANOIDS?
● More rational reasons
●They can work in human environment without a need to
adapt themselves or to change the environment
●Our environment and our tools are adapted for us
●Why adapt all to robots?
●It is easier for a human being to interact with a human-like
being

8. Bipedism frees the
hands to create tools
and start cognition
HUMAN EVOLUTION

9. HUMAN EVOLUTION VS.
HUMANOID EVOLUTION

10. HUMANOID EVOLUTION
(CONT’D)
● Nowadays, humanoid robot researchers are focusing on
bipeds more than they do in cognition
● Stable and robust bipedal locomotion is still a good lab
example
● It is mandatory to solve it in order to be able to implement
cognition
● We are in the pre-robotic era compared with the human
evolution

11. LEGGED LOCOMOTION
● Legged locomotion is much easier
to accomplish (and much safer to
develop and test) on smaller
humanoids.
● The SDR-4X was recently
developed by Sony as a domestic
robot capable of handling uneven
surfaces and stairs on the fly.
● Honda's P3 humanoid.
● Honda now has another smaller
and lighter android known as P3.

12. HUMANOID ROBOT
APPLICATIONS
● Entertainment
● Eduction
● Art
● Search andRescue
● Medical and Welfare
● House Works

13. ● Humanoid as a slave
● New electrical appliance?
● Will they be adapted to the master?
● Back to slavery?
● Humanoid as a companion
● Will they get socially accepted?
● Will they have social rights?
● Who will be responsible for them?
● Will they be able to acquire some conscience?
● Will they evolute?

14. Safely move the objects co-operatively
Corrects position and speed of two robots
Smooth co-ordination
Carry objects safely on various surfaces
CONCLUSION
SCOPE FOR IMPROVEMENT
Design user friendly humanoids for Layman
