Abstract
In this paper design problems are discussed for developing low-cost easy-operation humanoid robots by looking at a kinematic solution with a reduced number of d.o.f.s and mechanism structure for fairly simple operation. The outlined design problems have been attached to propose a new kinematic solution that is under development at LARM in Cassino.
