ICYMI: Boston Dynamics’ humanoid robot Atlas is seen leaping over obstacles, doing back-flips and even falling flat on its face during practice runs
A new video released on Tuesday shows Atlas leaping over obstacles, doing back-flips and even falling flat on its face during practice runs.
“Parkour is a useful organizing activity for our team because it highlights several challenges that we believe to be important,” said Atlas team leader Scott Kuindersma. Atlas stands 5 feet tall, weighs 190 pounds , uses hydraulics and battery-powered electric motors for movement, and has three on-board computers.
“It can be frustrating sometimes. The robots crash a lot,” said Benjamin Stephens, control lead on the Atlas team.
