Murata Manufacturing demonstrated Murata Girl, a unicycle-riding robot, at CEATEC Japan 2008, Japans largest IT exhibition held at Makuhari Messe.
Murata Girl is 50cm tall and weighs 5kg. It is equipped with two tilt-angle detection gyro sensors. It maintains balance by monitoring gyro sensor signals to control the movement of the wheel and the rotation of a fly wheel inside her torso.
It also uses a pair of ultrasonic sensors to measure the distance between an obstacle and herself.
Murata Manufacturing, which promotes science education as a part of its corporate social responsibility activities, developed Murata Girl in order to respond to the voice of children who requested the development of a unicycle-riding robot.
