Violet Robot

VIOLET: Open source humanoid robot with torque feedback for posture control and balance experiments.

The design is based on the open source platform Poppy ( https://www.poppy-project.org/ ) that is actuated with Dynamixel servomotors. The main difference between the original Poppy and Violet consists in the fact that the actuation of the legs in the sagittal plane (i.e ankle, knee and hip joint) is implemented with the Dynamixel MX-64AT (instead of MX-28AT) and includes a custom torque sensor.
