An implementation of the humanoid violin robot with AHRS

The robot in a highly humanoid appearance, and the ability to play the violin is presented for a robot entertainment and ornamental. By model for keeping moving range of the mechanical structure, a method makes the robot has the possibility of playing the violin. Based on ARM core intelligent control with AHRS is used to realize control of the robot behavior. Finally, the present study realizes the humanoid violin robot with of the flexible right-hand, which can play the full repertoire in artificial assisted, thus push forward the humanoid violin robot research progress. it is an important milestone the violin robot research in the course.
