Abstract :
This video presents the recent upgrades of the mobile humanoid Agile Justin, bringing it closer to an ideal platform for research in autonomous manipulation. Significant upgrades have been made in the fields of mechatronics, 3D sensors, tactile skin, massive GPGPU based computing power, and software communication framework. In addition, first algorithms and two experimental scenarios are presented that take advantage of these new capabilities.
