Product overview

About InMoov

InMoov is a publicly documented, life-size humanoid design created by French modelmaker and sculptor Gaël Langevin. It is shared as printable files rather than as a manufactured product. The project started in January 2012 as Langevin's personal project, and the project site describes a humanoid that builders can 3D print and animate.

The robot's parts are 3D printed, and the site says they can be printed on a home 3D printer with a 12 × 12 × 12 cm build area. The design covers a head, torso, arms and hands, and the site includes a build section for non-motorised legs. Servos and an Arduino move the hand, and builders use the public MyRobotLab software platform.

The downloadable parts are licensed under Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial terms. After Thingiverse changed its policies, the files moved to Langevin's own site. The project site does not give a standardized height, weight or total degree-of-freedom count, so those fields are left empty. InMoov is listed as a prototype because it is a build-it-yourself platform rather than a finished robot generally sold and shipped to customers.

Capabilities

Key features
