Toyota walking
The Toyota Walking is the 1st of 5 versions . It moves bipedally and, a special feature of the Toyota Partner Robots , can make music with human instruments. He has special lips that can move like humans, he can also move his fingers like a person, this enables him to play the trumpet on a completely normal trumpet.
Toyota Rolling
The Toyota Rolling has a drive system similar to that of a Segway Personal Transporter . Its 2 wheels enable it to move quickly and with great agility. Like the Toyota Walking, it can also play the trumpet.
Toyota Mountable
The Toyota Mountable is not a humanoid robot like its robot colleagues, it is more like a bipedal, modern wheelchair replacement. The transport walking robot can be controlled by a joystick that is attached to the seat.
A similar robot is the Hubo FX-1 manufactured by HUBO Labs , but it is slightly larger.
wire-operation system
The fourth version , the wire-operating system , is a humanoid robot that has a unique movement system. The accumulators and motors are attached to his torso, and he can move his arms and legs via wires.
