Abstract :
For several years, humanoid robotic has an important place in the research area. But nowadays, humanoid robots are everywhere: movies, advertising, toy... The world seems to be ready for biped robot. In this paper, a new mechatronic platform is introduced: the Aldebaran robotics´ humanoid robot. The firm is developing an entertainment robot in the same range than the AIBO robot: a companion robot. The process of mechanical prototyping, actuator designation, electronic architecture and first computing design are presented in this document
