ABSTRACT
A Humanoid Robot is a robot with its body shape built to resemble that of the human body. It is being developed to perform human task. In this paper, I have described the technical components of humanoid robot like sensors which are responsible to sense the environmental parameters and actuators which are responsible for the motion in the robot. In working and control mechanism, the theory of zero moment point explains the balance of humanoid robots during walking. Some humanoid robots like ASIMO and MYON which are developed to work in real-world environment. ASIMO has the ability to recognize moving objects and surrounding environment which enables it to interact with the humans. MYON is the first humanoid robot in the world which can be disassembled into the parts.
I. INTRODUCTION
A Humanoid may be defined as something that resembles or looks like a human and having characteristics like opposable thumb, ability to walk in upright position, etc. Nowadays the concept of Humanoids is being widely implemented in Robotics and these robots are called Humanoid Robots or may be simply Humanoids. In general, Humanoid Robots have a torso, a head, two arms, and two legs. Fig.1 shows the ASIMO Humanoid Robot created by Honda which has the ability to walk or run on two feet at speeds up to 6 kilometer per hour.
Fig.1 ASIMO Humanoid Robot
A Humanoid robot is fully automated as it can adapt to its surroundings and continue with its goals. Some humanoid robots may also have a face, with eyes and mouth. Androids are humanoid robots built to resemble a male human and Gynoids are humanoid robots built to resemble a human female.
II. NEED OF HUMANOID ROBOTS
Humanoid robots are being developed to perform human tasks like personal assistance, where they should be able to assist the sick and elderly, and dirty or dangerous jobs. Humanoid
