I love this project! Congrats to your work! I have a technical question, though: I see that you are running ROS2. On which level did you implement it (torque control, position control, path planning,...)? Are you running any real-time controllers in ROS?  Thanks for your answer

  Are you sure? yes | no

Hi, could you give some details around the control system for the motors?

I believe the AK10_9 have their own control board so I don't understand the use of the moteus control board

Is this puppy ready for sale? I like the way he looks, but I don't know what his function is. Can it be compared with Boston?

What a pity! Many of my friends are interested in four-legged robots, but they just don't want to make one themselves, so I'd like to ask if you have any plans to sell it.so I want to ask if you have any plans to sell it. And I have a question, which way is your robot controlled, and how is the control effect?

This is awesome. Do you plan any AI models to use for navigation. What chip do you use for the "brain" part?

Great project. Could you tell me how do you want to manufacture the cover of the robot. It will not be bent sheet metal, am I right?

Do you have access to all this stuff at work or do you know any reasonable producer here in sweden? I've found that all plastic producer wants insane prices for the most simple parts, got a quote on 85tkr the last day for just one mold.

Impressive work. Is this a commercial endeavour, is it open source? I can't even imagine how many hours of design and CAD work this took. Following!

At the moment only for fun :) But I guess it will be open source in the end. ;) Thanks!
