The Disney Research team recently unveiled a new child-size walking robot at the 2023 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS). The robot is related to a patent Disney recently filed for a bipedal robot with different walking styles. The robot was developed by a team led by Mortiz Bächer at Disney Research in Zurich and is mostly 3D printed, using modular hardware and actuators. Its head is able to look up, down, around, and tilt, and its legs have five degrees of movement. The team discussed the difficulties in bringing a potential animated character into the real world.
