- REEM-C Humanoid Robot
When it comes to designing humanoid robot, your robot should look
consistent from head to bottom. There are some dos and don’ts rules as
well as various styles and approaches. Plasticpals tried to apply those rules for PAL Robotics’ contest to design their forthcoming humanoid robot, REEM-C.
REEM-C has a beautiful helmet that can be used to conceal the
microphones. The face has been designed to be minimalist since not any
of PAL Robotics’ earlier robot designs have integrated eyelids, brows or
lips. The REEM-C logo serves as the chief indicator light and aids to
brand the robot; however, it can change color in order to signify the
robot’s internal status. Its shoulder joints are capable of rolling 90 degrees
into this position even without the upper arm stabbing on the shoulder.
Since the fingers are covered in semi-translucent rubber, they appear
to be in lighter color.

REEM-C’s elbow joint takes its inspiration from the SONY ORIO and is capable of bending even further. Its upper back is a concave oval from where the back-facing camera goes, whose main purpose is to track things going on behind it. In order to hide internal mechanisms, the back of the legs fold inside the calve just like the folding elbow. The legs are capable of rolling and twisting up to 90 degrees at the hip that would allow it to revolve 90 degrees to either right or left in just 2 steps.
Tuvie has received this project from our ‘Submit A Design‘ feature, where we welcome our readers to submit their design/concept for publication.
