AMIGO's head

In order to recognize objects and to create a three dimensional visualization of the environment, AMIGO is equipped with a Microsoft's Kinect (1) camera. In the same way humans do, the images out of multiple cameras are used for depth perception.
Microsoft's Kinect (1) is used to visualize the the robots environment. It's mounted to a Dynamixel RX-28 (3) using a standard FR07-H101 frame (2). These parts are bolted using the supplied bolts that come with the frame. This Dynamixel (3) makes it possible for the robot to look up and down.
In order to look to the sides a second Dynamixel Rx-28 is used (5). Both Dynamixels are connected using a FR07-S101 frame (4).
