H7

A full-size biped research humanoid completed in 2001 at the end of a five-year project begun in 1996, used by the JSK lab for whole-body sensing, collision checking and vision-guided walking. It followed H6 (already listed), and Kawada used the know-how from both in its isamu robot; official height and weight were not found on the lab page.
