Humanoid robots are still in a process of the evolution. The artists are trying to develop a next generation named Kotaro.
It is designed in an anatomically-based approach. It has a spine, scapulas, collarbones and ball-and-socket joints like a human skeleton structure. The anatomic-based body is driven by the artificial muscles which are made of chemical wires and electromagnetic motors. It has over a 100 motors inside the body. It is more than twice quantity of general robots. The robot describes characteristic motions which are flexible like humans, wide range of movements and safety contact with humans using the complex body.
