TALOS is a PAL Robotics humanoid research robot for projects involving walking and object manipulation.
TALOS is a PAL Robotics humanoid research robot for projects involving walking and object manipulation. A university or research institution should specify the motions and objects involved before selecting the platform. Arm loading is a per-arm value in a stated posture; it does not define a general whole-body transport capacity. Runtime is also linked to an activity. Record trial duration, breaks and the roles of supervising researchers. The choice of hands, software and external equipment needs attention as well. This is a research instrument: successful public demonstrations do not replace assessment of the task the institution’s own team intends to implement and evaluate on the hardware.
