Scope & Topics
Humanoid robots are created to imitate some of the same physical and mental tasks that humans undergo daily. Scientists and specialists from many different fields including engineering, cognitive science, and linguistics combine their efforts to create a robot as human-like as possible. Their creators' goal for the robot is that one day it will be able to both understand human intelligence, reason and act like humans. If humanoids are able to do so, they could eventually work along side humans. Another important benefit of developing androids is to understand the human body's biological and mental processes, from the seemingly simple act of walking to the concepts of consciousness and spirituality. The Journal of Humanoids fosters the dissemination of new discoveries and novel technologies which are related to all fields of humanoid robots. The journal will publish new discoveries and improvements, innovative ideas and concepts, as well as novel applications which are related to the field of humanoid robots and are proven to be of high quality.

Design and control of full-body humanoids
