Safety Instructions
Be cautious when assembling and using ROBOBUILDER kit for safety reasons.
This is especially important as ROBOBUILDER is a DIY assembly kit which users will
frequently build and disassemble, some of these components cause harm to the user.
The user should assume all responsibility for any accident caused by their careless
handling of the product. Attention must be paid to the following safety instructions.
Please read through this user’s guide and make sure you fully understand all the
instructions before assembling and operating this product.
Handling Electric Power
·Do not use any damaged power cord, plug, or loose outlet.
It may cause an electric shock or fire.
·Make sure that the power plug is inserted firmly into the outlet so that the power cord
can’t get loose. A loose connection may cause a fire.
·Do not forcibly bend or pull the power cord or place it under a heavy object.
It may cause an electric shock or fire.
·Do not handle the power cord with wet hands. It may cause an electric shock.
·Do not connect multiple electric devices to one outlet.
It may cause an abnormal heat or fire.
If this instruction is not properly followed, a serious injury, harm, or death may occur
to the user
If this instruction is not properly followed, an injury to user or physical damage may
arise.
Caution
·This product is not waterproof. Never operate the product in a wet place.
·Do not keep or operate the product in direct sunlight.

Safety Instructions
·Do not assemble the product when you are tired or in a bad physical condition,
particularly whilst intoxicated.
·Do not place your face too close to the robot.
·Do not use dangerous tools such as a knife or a drill but only recommended tool.
·Keep the remote control that contains batteries away from children’s reach.
Should your child swallow a battery, consult with a doctor immediately.
·Do not keep or operate the robot in a place of high temperature or humidity.
·Keep small parts such as bolts, nuts, and joints away from children’s reach.
Should your child swallow any product part, consult with a doctor immediately.
Handling RoboBuilder Kit
·This product is available only for users aged 14 and up.
·Use the product only in an indoor environment.
·Do not arbitrarily disassemble, repair, and modify the product parts.
·Do not connect or disconnect cables while the robot product is in operation.
It may cause a damage or failure to the product.
·Make sure that only designated devices be connected to connectors or connection
ports of the product. It may cause a damage or failure to the product.
·When cleaning the product, do not use water or solvent such as benzene, and
alcohol but use a soft and dry cloth only. It may cause a failure to the product.
·Keep the robot or parts away from children’s reach.
·Do not leave the product with power on.
Battery damage may cause a product failure.
·Accumulated gear backlash may cause abnormal robot actions if the product is
operated for a long time or executes repeatedly excessive motions, which can
transmit mechanical overload stress to wCK actuator modules.
·Do not give excessive force while a torque is applied to the wCK actuators of the
robot. A gear damage may cause a product failure.
·In some cases wCK actuator module can vibrate a little under operation.
This is not a product failure but a phenomenon that is caused by improper
settings of gains and torque values of the wCK modules. When you set proper
values for them, this phenomenon disappears.
·When wCK actuator modules get twisted by running wrong motions while
programming, turn the power off quickly to prevent excessive torque from being
transmitted to the robot.
·If your finger is caught between actuator modules, turn the power off quickly and
remove force applied to robot to prevent any physical injury.
·Do not operate and let the robot touch any human life or animal.
It may cause injury to the life or product failure.

Table of Contents
RoboBuilder is a DIY robot with multiple axes and
multiple functions, which is built by joining various
parts such as wCK robotic module, controller, joints,
and other body parts.
Users can build three standard robot platforms (HUNO,
DINO, and DOGY) for which building instructions are
provided with the kit. Various other robots of user’s
own design can also be easily created.
The robot can easily perform complex motions by
running robot files that are programmed by user or
from robot files that can be downloaded from the In-
ternet.

Product Features
Short Building Time
Approximately 1 hour building is required to create a robot that is ready to run with
advanced functions and 16 degrees of freedom.
Robot File Sharing
The robot files that define a robot’s motions and actions can be shared over Internet.
(Realized for the first time in the world through precise motion control technology)
Quick & Simple Joint Assembly
Various types of joints enable the user to quickly build new articulated robotic creatures.
Precise Motion Control
Smooth and Natural motions realized through precise motion control both in wheel
mode (360˚) and position control mode(0 to 332˚).
Distributed Controls
Quick and Easy troubleshooting and upgrading are ensured as the main
control(control box) and remote control(wCK joint actuators)are separated.
Built-in Connector
You can easily connect signal line and power line by using two built-in connectors
installed on the wCK module.
Attractive Design
RoboBuilder has an attractive design with curved body lines.
The user can customize their unique robots with various optional accessories.
Creative Robot Building
You can make any desired robot with your own ideas and designs as well as three
standard robot platforms.

Chapter 1. Introduction to RoboBuilder
Robot File Sharing on Internet
RoboBuilder has adopted the technology of sharing robot files on internet for the first time in the
world. A robot file uploaded on internet by a user can be downloaded and run by another user.
This new technology enables multiple robots with the same hardware structure to share motions
through the Internet.
To upload and download robot files, access the RoboBuilder homepage
(http://www.RoboBuilder.net) and go to COMMUNITY page.
ㆍ Motion files created by a user with MotionBuilder can be shared online as well as offline. However, any motion
files that are modified after being downloaded must but uploaded back to the RoboBuilder homepage if the user
wishes to share these with other users.
ㆍ All downloaded motion files from the homepage may not work perfectly when executed in a different user’s robot.
ㆍ In order to modify downloaded motion files, the user should first add the file to a project in MotionBuilder.

Introduction
HUNO is a humanoid walking robot designed to resemble a human being. This robot is one of
the best robots that can be built with RoboBuilder kit. A simple remote control can be used to
initiate basic motions such as walking, running, kicking, and a hand stand. The user can also
enjoy more complex motions such as dancing, performing Taekwon-do, responding to sounds,
and detecting objects by programming new robot files.
