I've designed a new neck mechanism for InMoov to add a degree of freedom. It still needs some fine tuning but you'll get the idea.

wow, that's nice. but what I dont like is the long neck of all Inmoovs. the head is flying over the body ^^!
cheers
That's brilliant!
The inMoov bar has just been raised again. Awesome Bob!
Excellent, I have the impression that Inmoov is in a constant and fast evolving mode Congratulations Bob.
Great work Bob, love the video.
Helps sell the idea of building the Inmoov, which can be constantly evolving!
Chris.
Great job Bob!
Thanks for the comments. I will be posting the Part STL's and instructions to make the modification, here and on Thingiverse, sometime over the next few days.
@Bob.... that's very generous of you, thank you... I hope you don't mind if we copy what you've done.... ?
P.S. Sue was very, very impressed and she doesn't know much about robotics at all (just what I have be yammering to her about... which is not much LOL). She said your inMoov moves more life like than mine....
