I am building a humanoid robot and was wondering which is better to use? I am starting on the head from a book that I received on the Mark 1 robot project. I am then going to research and build humanoid or at least close to humanoid legs. Do anyone have any projects I can research and learn about biped robots. The Mark 1 can not walk yet from what I understand. I believe if I make the feet and lower legs heavier it might help.

Raspberry Pi can either be a controller -or- run ARC Software -or- both
The ARC software is what gives a controller the ability to be "smart". And do things such as vision recognition and gaits (i.e. walking), etc.. It connects to a controller. ARC runs on a more capable processor to make a controller do robot-like things.
Decide on the controller based on your peripheral needs. Look at the Getting Started guide on this website to select a controller that supports the features you want. (i.e. number of servos, audio, camera, etc).
