Nice work,
Much media attention focuses on Japanese robotics; nothing wrong with Japanese achievements nevertheless, I would like see what the US, Russia, China, France, Italy, Germany, Brazil, England, etc... are doing.
Why humanoids with limited range of motion, strenght, and abilities? Because humanoids are designed to function in the human environment with human equipment and humans may have to use the same equipment or complete a given task within human range of performance.
