Boston Dynamics
Robots in the real world experience challenges and conditions we can’t always anticipate or recreate in the lab, so we have to get creative to push the limits. Adding wheels to Atlas was a testbed to see how a learned whole-body controller can work with real actuators, running at the edge of their performance envelopes.

Fantastic content as always.
Fantastic content as always.
America is competing with China in the AI and robotics race by hiring Chinese engineers.🤔
Very cool robot design ty 🙂
I learned something new today.
Sometimes I wish I had wheels.
I know on concrete I would move quicker on skates
Are they doing skate move propulsion? Or using powered wheels?
Am I wrong for thinking Michael Reeves would want one of these and do some obsurd funny shit with it like he did with spot?
ボトムズ
Plot twist: I came for one minute and watched the whole thing.
Maybe the next modality to test over the winter ❄️🥶are ice skates!
미쳤는데?
the mecha anime is here oh no lol
Remember kids , center mass is still the best option for now 😮
나보다 잘타노
"It just worked first try" 😵
I wasn t expecting it to be this good.
The permanent rollerblades must be a headache for balance. I don't think they're worth it. Just decide between legs and wheels, dont do both.
Yep.
We are doomed…
That s an instant favorite.
Good job!
There is a reason cars aren’t just mechanical horses. Great work and idea to push the mobility of humanoids.
How the heck does a metallic construct with limited number of joints balance on 2 wheels while standing still?!
1:17 Drop online games. Focus on something more constructive. 😀
That guy sounds and speaks like he really enjoys doing his job and is not just reading some script or corporate PR statement, very nice.
エグイ･･･
I vaguely remember the time when I used to enjoy BDs videos…
My 5-minute break turned into watching the entire video.
