InMoov
InMoov is the first open-source 3D-printed life-size humanoid robot, started by French sculptor Gael Langevin in January 2012. The body is built entirely from 3D-printable plastic parts that fit on a 12x12x12 cm printer bed and is driven by hobby servos through Arduino microcontrollers, with higher-level control handled by the MyRobotLab framework. The STL parts library, assembly tutorials and bill-of-materials are distributed from inmoov.fr under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial license; because of the NonCommercial clause the design is open and freely buildable but not OSHW-compatible. This catalog entry treats inmoov.fr as the canonical hardware source. The linked MyRobotLab/InMoov GitHub repo is the service launcher (control software), not the mechanical CAD, so it is referenced as a cross-link rather than the build source.

What you get
- A standardized, machine-readable robot schema derived from the source repo.
- A primary assembly 3D asset is available from inmoov_description/robots/inmoov.urdf.xacro.
- Source-backed bill-of-materials evidence is linked with per-part provenance where available. Prices marked estimated are not yet verified against a vendor.
- A transparent reproducibility score so buildability is a sortable, first-class property.
- Cross-links to the source repo, datasets, models, and forks.
