DLR crawler robot meets Justin and Hand Arm System

A six-legged crawling robot (DLR crawler) is used for developing and testing autonomous, vision-based navigation. DLR`s humanoid robot Justin, an experimental system for research on bimanual dexterous manipulation, shows its dynamic sensing and movement capabilities by catching balls tossed in its direction. The Hand-Arm-System is designed to be similar to the human arm in its kinematic and dynamic properties, but also to be robust against unforeseen collisions.
