Machine, Assemble, Repair: How We Build Atlas | Boston Dynamics



Boston Dynamics

From custom part to running robot, the Atlas shop floor is built on precision, rapid assembly, and real-time collaboration. By machining parts in-house and streamlining assembly and repair under one roof, we are driving the manufacturing velocity needed to turn complex designs into walking hardware at scale.

  1. Getting lots of no-quotes is a sign of design engineers that either don’t have experience or aren’t coordinated enough with your manufacturing engineers. The only way to scale is to design the product around the manufacturing processes that are already readily available and at scale, not the other way around.

  2. Boston Dynamics: Managers finally doing their job and managed to secure appropriate resources for engineers to be able to actually do some state of art technologies.
    My company: Managers approved "Let's innovate!" big poster to be printed. – Resources, please? – No resources, do innovate in your free time after hitting KPIs.

  3. Yeah… be proud of destroying humanity and its future… and then an idiot says: „earth won’t be habitable in the future and we need to go to Mars!“ 😏

  4. Robots to help disabled people, I think most of them would prefer it if you invented technology to help them to get around, not a robot helper. When you don't use tools you developed yourself it means somebody else can make those precision parts, not just you.

  5. As a long-time fan of Boston Dynamics, it hurts to admit this, but we need to talk about both sides of their legacy.
    On one hand, their engineering genius is undeniable. They did what everyone thought was impossible: they solved the fundamental physics of robotic balance, created the blueprints for dynamic movement, and single-handedly inspired a generation of engineers. Without their viral videos, the world wouldn't believe in humanoids, and billions of dollars in private investments wouldn't have flooded into this industry. They proved it can be done.
    But on the other hand, their hype created a massive illusion that blinded US robotics. Boston Dynamics operated like a "forever startup"—burning through billions under Google, SoftBank, and Hyundai without building a single automated factory for mass production.
    The US innovation system fell into the "MIT Club" trap—funneling resources into a closed circle of elites who perfected hyper-expensive, unscalable hydraulics. This institutional nepotism and cronyism happens across all of science. We must urgently entrust all such funding decisions to be controlled, or at least reviewed, by AI to avoid similar cases in the future. When the same tight circle of insiders monopolizes state grants for decades without delivering industrial scale, it kills open competition.
    I love Boston Dynamics for breaking the technological wall, but the systemic cronyism in science that followed must be stopped.
