In this paper the humanoid robot SABIAN (Sant’Anna BIpedal humANoid) is presented and analyzed in details. In particular, the differences between the SABIAN platform and the WABIAN-2 (WAseda BIpedal humANoid), its original Japanese version, are underlined. Some innovative solutions, as the exact calculation of the error mass and the adoption of a new shaft with incorporated joint used to transfer motion, allowed to improve the performances of the robot.

Abstract

In this paper the humanoid robot SABIAN (Sant’Anna BIpedal humANoid) is presented and analyzed in details. In particular, the differences between the SABIAN platform and the WABIAN-2 (WAseda BIpedal humANoid), its original Japanese version, are underlined. Some innovative solutions, as the exact calculation of the error mass and the adoption of a new shaft with incorporated joint used to transfer motion, allowed to improve the performances of the robot. Other works, such as the development of a harvesting system for recovering energy, are planned for the next future in order to optimize the platform.
