iCub
Model: icub
iCub is an open-source humanoid robot designed for research into embodied cognition and artificial intelligence. Built by the Italian Institute of Technology (IIT) in Genoa, it's the size of a five-year-old child at 104 cm tall. Over 40 units are in use at research labs across Europe, the US, Korea, Singapore, China, and Japan. The hardware and software are fully open-source under GPL. It has 53 degrees of freedom, stereo vision cameras, microphones, and an optional full-body tactile skin. It can crawl, walk, sit, grasp objects, make facial expressions, and learn from interaction — making it one of the most capable research humanoids in the world.
