Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Building a humanoid robot represents a big technological and scientific challenge due to its complexity, cost, time requirements and other issues. In this paper, we present the development of a low cost and fast prototyping new bipedal robot with 12 DOFs. The lower limb structure of the robot, tall 1.1 m and with a weight of only 14 kg, was physically assembled by our research team optimizing the cost and duration of the work. To reduce the cost and weight of the system, we developed a high power-to-weight ratio servomotor capable to generate up to 200 W of mechanical power.
