In the industrial design of the Walker robot, our focus was on creating a design that mirrored human movements and expressions, making the robot relatable and engaging. The challenge lay in integrating the technical requirements of bipedal mobility into a design that was not only functional but also visually appealing. Our team employed principles of kinetic bio-mimicry, ensuring that Walker could not only walk but also balance and move with a robust self-balancing capability. The design incorporated a large touchscreen display for interactive communication, maintaining the humanoid aspect. Our goal was to create a robot that was as lifelike as possible, breaking barriers in robot design and interaction.

The mechanical engineering challenge in developing Walker was immense, requiring the robot to perform human-like movements such as bending, ascending and descending stairs, and maintaining balance. Our team meticulously worked on the placement of sensors and motors, ensuring they were integrated into the design to facilitate full mobility without hindering functionality. The engineering process involved a delicate balance of making the robot appear sophisticated yet approachable. By leveraging advanced engineering techniques, we achieved a design that allowed Walker to move freely and interact in human environments, setting a new standard in the field of humanoid robotics.
