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.

Rb550f's Moshi Is Alive
Well i finally got EZB 4 installed and connected inside MOSHI. Everything works great.I have a few cosmetic items to do...
Now that my internet is back up! Sometimes I feel like I'm living in the sticks. Oh wait, I do!
Anyway, Thanks for the tip DJ, I will add my Thingiverse info there. I've been using that new Onshape CAD, (onshape.com) It's free! (but you can buy an enhanced version). It's quite similar to Solidworks and having used that in the past, Onshape was an easy transition for me. Check it out they have lots of tutorials to get you going.
in all honestly i believe that the inmoov may just be the future of android robotics it wouldn't take very much more for the inmoov to evolve to the perfect stage of android transition, add some latex skin or what ever they use for the skin, some touch/fell pressure sensors, distance sensors, 4-1 orinitational sensors and inverted pendulums and ext. with the edition of ez-ai with a custom human voice modulations and create a female version and BAAAAM, the next best android ever built. it would be like bicentennial man when he transformed from humanoid robot to android all over again lol. who ever is responsible for creating this humanoid robot is a genius and so are every one else who helps in making all the advancements to the model as well. I look forward in seeing the future of the inmoov move (no pun intended) in the right direction, and id love to know how to buy a complete one with legs lol totally worth the money
@ omegaproject, Have a look at Gael Langevin's site, the modelmaker and sculptor who made the Inmoov project available.

I have uploaded the files for this modification to Thingiverse.

Thanks Bob. I am about to reprint my head and will be doing this. I really appreciate you doing this.
@Bob... ditto... Thanks for this. It works awesome...
Tanks Bob, you did a real nice and bright improvement. It makes the head movement realistic and will allow to communicate a wider range of emotions.
Question, is it only me? When I open the stl files in my FlashPrint or 123 Design software the part shows itself as about 1/25 of the real size.
Bob, What size servos are your stl's designed to use? It looks like the standard EZ-Robot HD servos. Can you post a photo of how they are connected to the upper body?
Thanks David
