Abstract
An effective trunk behaviour is one of the most important factors for a humanoid to accomplish any given task using stable operations. In this paper, a novel structure that can reproduce a human-like movement of the torso-pelvis part with a pure simple low-cost rotation mechanism easy to realize and control is proposed.
