In this report, the development process of a humanoid robot is illustrated. The humanoid robot is designed to compete in Robocup Soccer, humanoid category. To develop the robot, information pertaining to the restrictions has to be obtained. The development of a robot require cross disciplines knowledge ranging from mechanics to electrical engineering. Therefore, much have to be learned even before starting to design the robot. The design will be done on CAD software to reduce modification time and for better fit and assembly. The drawings sent for fabrication and the finish parts were assembled together with the rest of the components like cameras, processor, servo motors, etc. After the assembly, the system was tested and the problems rectified.
