INTRODUCTION |
 |
 |
|
Honda engineers created ASIMO with 34 Degrees of Freedom that help it walk and perform
tasks much like a human. One Degree of Freedom is the ability to move right and
left or up and down. These degrees of freedom act much like human joints for optimum
movement and flexibility. Lightweight materials, like a magnesium alloy structure,
combined with powerful computers and 34 servo motors throughout its body help ASIMO
move smoothly with ease.
