Atlas | Partners in Parkour
Parkour is the perfect sandbox for the Atlas team at Boston Dynamics to experiment with new behaviors. In this video our humanoid robots demonstrate their whole-body athletics, maintaining its balance through a variety of rapidly changing, high-energy activities. Through jumps, balance beams, and vaults, we demonstrate how we push Atlas to its limits to discover the next generation of mobility, perception, and athletic intelligence.

send some of those to the moon on the lunar mission
@Christina Law Because it doesn’t help him to get to Mars. Also, these guys seem to do a good job on their own.
@Marcin Kowalski really? I thought that was just some sort of partnership
You sheeple are a great representation of the blind leading the blind.
They would need to calibrate it for moon gravity instead of earths probably
@Chris O’Connell Clogging the joints..? you know there are some pretty good solutions for that like just covering them up with a cloth like material 🙂
Next challenge: American Ninja Warrior course
@Hans Servando The early prototypes had hands, but they started stealing stuff everywhere so they removed the hands.
Took the words right out of my mouth
@Rajan Tyagi well, now it is… It’s still based in Boston though. Do you consider your vegetables to be made in America even though they’re owned by a Chinese company?

@SoCalFreelance it doesn’t. What you’ll see is the current jobs disappear and new jobs that are engineered for the robots take their place. Robots and people can’t do the same things. People are adaptable and creative, robots not so much. Maybe one day, but not anytime soon.
Favorite moment: 0:38 when it almost loses its balance but adjusts its foot and catches itself with no fuss
Love the arm flair as well. That entire jump was very human
When it used its arm to jump over, I was terribly impressed!
That was the part that blew my mind actually
All the weight is supported on one arm. That move is the most impressive thing of the demo.
That part gave me shivers. Shockingly human-like.
@Damien Drouart yes but no. It’s not the complete weight on the arm while doing that. However awesome move
The backflip was really impressive as well. Doing that carrying all those machine weight inside is preety carzy
This is the end of my career
robots are much better in everything if we see closely so just merge with them what´s so wrong with that
We need these robots to do construction.

This is the end of humanity’s career… of life.
I am sorry for this
Atlas will be complete when he stumbles and says “f*ck!”
Next year.
Where’s a michael reeves when you need one?
Family guy skit from a real robot, dankest timeline
I hope John Connor is doing ok. We’ll need him soon it seems.
Christian Bale will save us
Will he be the jury in the new Robolympics
It’s actually starting to enter that “uncanny valley” phase. I’m amazed and equally terrified.
I’d say they’re actually starting to climb up the other side. All they need is to cover that in a lifelike body and it will be really close.
I love that their fans start going crazy 😂
Their other robot fans right?
@Fırat Bayram Bakır He is talking about their cooling fans after doing so much, they have to spin their built in fans really fast to cool. In case you were being serious.
They gotta breathe too, asshole
It’s the backflips for me.
