In 1996, the Japanese company JSK Laboratory of the University of Tokyo conducted the HARU Project. Under this project, the Haru series was born. During this time, four of the same robots were designed and built. Each stands at 1.5 inches (42.3 cm) and weighs 7 lbs (3.5kg). The Haru has 22 Degrees of Freedom.
Futaba Corporation made the RC Servo for this robot, which serves as actuators. They are controlled by a radio using a remote computer. The Haru robot can walk, carry light loads and work cooperatively. Images are transmitted using a BS transmitter sending it to the remote computer, which in turn processes the images it viewed.
