hi all

i notest that the mouth not fully closed . i made some mods .

new folder  sendfolder.zip

little video of the jaw problem .

Great work nomad! Looks like you spent a lot of time on it with good success! Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to seeing what you do next

@dj

tomorow printing  the new jaw and testing . then its just finishing the head .

do it all over for my full inmoove robot .

thanks for the kind words .

hi all

i made a new base if you want only the yes motion . so you need only one working piston .and two springloade hollow pistons .

only yes base.stl

hi all

i made hollow springloaded pistons for the only yes base . this to keep the head level . on the left side picture . the two , small pieces wil be moveble to get inline with the neck base , were the tree pistons are housing . video soon .

Commenting to follow progress! :D

Nice work Nomad.   I am wondering how to move forward.  Do I do this mod and if so will it align with actual inmoov? What is Jeremie working on?  Will I head in one direction and then have to change to another.   I think I may as well go forward and build the entire Inmoov (I put filament on my Christmas list) but I would like to have something that is at least loosely supported and a roadmap. InMoov changed direction and primarily uses MRL but its a terrible platform to work with so I don’t want to go down that path.  If I wanted pain in my life I would use ROS.

hi nink

i will test the new mouth in a few houres . then i can post a video so you can see the improment there . a complete inmoove is allot of work . there are so many files old and new together . its easy to print , the wrong parts . personally i find the arms to most diff to do . i didn started that part yet .

thanks

hi averyone

so tested the mouth and still needed a little adjustment . so here's the new perfect jaw and hinges folder . the mouth close very good .

latestjawMod.zip

I wouldn’t consider using absolutely anything else after you see what the next ARC version is like  pretty sure we’re gonna blow your minds.

so yah - make that inmoov cause we still need a bit more time. I was hoping for new year but we’re probably a month or two out. Big job is porting all the 700 robot skills to the new software. And new website and etc etc. stay tuned

@dj

wow 700 robot skills . thats enough till am 100 years old . new website . cool am alreddy  in chrismas mood .;)

@Nink I can't share what I'm working on yet I wish I could!

hi averyone

i hearded this line before but cant remember were .xD steve is not finisched but stil have its own mind . cool

hi averyone

for the base with no side movement . i made a springpiston model . the springloaded base looks same as the one with ,only two servo's less needed .

to keep the pistons in place on the base i use piston cups . the cups lean towarts the upper hollow pistons . spring size 80 mm 1.5 wire thikness medium soft spring .

cup and hollow pistons .

hollow pistons.zip

more to come .testing new head frame .

Great work! You're really enjoying remixing the InMoov head! Are you considering making the entire InMoov someday too?

@dj

i have allreddy allot of parts for the compleet inmoove . the full front&back pannels . the neck + pistons .all in copper color . i have some rest now doing less stressfull things .xD i like tinkering stuf .

thank you

hi

first part is in place . can you see what i changed ?

hi

made a simpel tool to dril your tiny holes in the right place . using a bad servo or older one .

hi

i'm making two inmoove heads . one with the cam in the left eye , and one with the cam in center .

hi all

i adjusted the files for the camera in the front of the head .  i use some hot glue to keep the cable and cam in place . its a long print but it looks great .

frontcamera.stl

Nomad I am really enjoying watching the progress on your build.  I look forward to future updates and seeing the finished project.  Thanks for sharing. .

hi nink

i'm printing the new base for it . all parts are adjusted and modified . i post the folder and video later .

thanks for following along .

hi averyone

the springloaded head is reddy . only needed one extra servo for the yes motion . the base takes about 2 days to print . modified parts are . the mouth , mouth hinges , lowerbackskull , front top head for the camera to fit ,longer neck ,side inner pistons . headframe .more pictures to come later .averything els is original .there is also, a lockpin for the back servo for the no motion . to keep the screw in place .

lockpin inside the hole gear . it prevent from the servo screw to fall out . also you can see the 20 mm spacer below .

little video . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ZVNEoLbEHw&ab_channel=EDP

hi

some more pictures.

lockpin for keeping the servo screw in place so it cant fall out .

gear aline , spacer mounted.

tomorow more pictures . open neck mounted .

hi all

some random testing .

merry X-mas and happy new year soon averyone .

Merry Christmas and Happy New year to you too Nomad! Thanks for sharing your progress with us!

hi averyone

almost have one foot reddy . and the foot is going to be moveble . i post the folder later when all is bin tested . pictur is ankle leftfoot . the foot will be turnble left&right . the knees will be moveble by hand .

hi all :)

i notest that the ankle and hiel doesn lock . so i set my brain to thinking . and this is the solution . 4 tiny pins and a little block . the little block prevents from the pins comming out . i will test this ,when reddy i post the folder here .

hi averyone :D

left foot almost reddy for testing .

some pictures

hi :p

one left turneble foot reddy . the color copper is a little like glas , not so very strong as regular grey , black , green , yellow PLA . copper is good for excample outher body parts , not the main , body parts that carry most of the weight .

little videocool

send.zip

Very smooth. So you say the copper color is not as strong as the others. Are you going to reprint this part in a stronger PLA?

hi dave

yes the copper is not so strong . its good for out side parts . i keep the foot cause it doesn need to carry a load or stand on it . so no reprint is needed . i keep the main structure of the inmoove , in grey PLA .as you can see in the picture . the main structure is grey , and ontop that is the copper .

hello averyone:D

bolt legs are reddy . and they are huge .

a short video .

moving feet

Nice legs. Maybe I missed it but are you planning on trying to get these to walk of to be simply for looks?

hi dave

these are just for the looks . i gave the foot a little movement .  i saw guys put the foot together whit tie wraps , this is better . the knees are bendeble by hand .

assemble video , ankle to baseplate . two pins . flat pin goes on the backside and the tapered in the front . the block in center whit two little screws .

ankle assemble

great going Nomad

Legs are what color, goldish bronze?

hi ezang

the filament is brons silk .

looks great

Hey Nomad, I got a business modem / router in my home - need my ipv4 address to connect to ARC?

or what ip should I use?

ezang

i dont have that knowledge how to do that . sorry .

thanks anyway I figured it out

hi:)

some thoughts about the right&left side ways movement . if below waist the motion is 2 cm .would that not be more shoulder hight ?

hi :D

back to the waist part from inmoove . doing some test . i use the HDD standard servo's . you can see how obliquely , the middle bar goes . imagine 50 cm higher .how far the schoulder , will go . i think there's no need to get the pot out . waiting for parts .

hi ;)

the inmoove uses the big servo HS805BB 6 volt . my question is . do i need to use the voltage regulator ?

hi :D

first two big servo's has arrived .
