Interview with Limor Schweitzer
summary
A new humanoid called Frankie is a proof-of-concept skeleton that is completely 3D printed, demonstrating that a full humanoid platform can be built with consumer printers and off-the-shelf actuators rather than expensive custom machining. A global design competition produced cosmetic shells to make the robot look finished while keeping costs low. The claim is low-cost access to humanoid features and sufficient agility for household or hospital tasks, with size-related power and safety limits for larger versions.
