Abstract
This paper describes new design of a 6 DOF anthropomorphic robot arm driven by antagonistic pairs of pneumatic actuators. We adopt anthropomorphic open joints which enables unique design of its shoulder and the forearm. The shoulder has a ball-like joint which is driven by 10 pneumatic muscles. The forearm consists of parallel links which imitates human structure.
