A video released by China-based robotics company LimX Dynamics showcases its advanced humanoid robot performing complex movements like controlled lying down, parallel squats, waist rotation, and lifting itself from the ground. The robot's hollow actuator design and high torque-density actuators enable a full-body balance for a wide range of motion, allowing it to execute these actions with surprising stability and fluidity.
The robot can even carefully sit and lie down on the floor and lift itself up from a prone position.China-based robotics company LimX Dynamics has released a video showing its most advanced humanoid robot strutting its stuff.
The robot performs advanced motions like controlled lying down, parallel squats, waist rotation, and lifting itself from the ground. LimX explains that the robot features a hollow actuator design and high torque-density actuators, which enable a full-body balance for a wide range of motion. These enable the robot to perform complex full-body movements in an ultra-stable and dynamic manner. In the video, the robot can perform a surprisingly controlled descent into a supine position from standing. Compared to a human, the action does seem awkward and almost child-like, but it uses a combination of its legs and arms to lie down on the floor gently. The next part of the video shows the robot performing a series of parallel squats. This action is much smoother and closer to the “real” thing, with the robot using its arms to help balance itself during the process.The third act of the video shows off the robot’s waist rotation. The robot can be seen swiveling its hips similarly to someone warming up and ready for exercise. Once again, the robot uses its arms to help provide balance during the process. The video’s fourth and arguably most impressive part shows the robot lifting itself from the ground to a standing position. It is here, however, that the robot completes this feat in a way a human never could. Lying on its front, the robot can lift its legs and rotate them around its joints 360 degrees to place the “soles” firmly on the floor. Once in that position, the robot can use its legs to stand from a squat-like position with the torso still firmly on the ground. Again, it uses its arms to provide additional balance to complete the procedure. This ability is completely alien to us, but the robot makes the process seem effortless. “With ongoing advancements in system engineering, LimXDynamics full-size humanoid robot features a hollow actuator design and high torque-density actuators, enabling full-body balance for a wide range of motion,” the company said onThis new video follows others released over the last few years, including W1-wheeled quadruped and other humanoid robots.
