Boston Dynamics unveiled last week a massively upgraded version of its ATLAS humanoid that is smaller, lighter, and more agile than the version initially developed for the DARPA Robotics Challenge. While the company calls this the "next generation" of ATLAS, it looks like such an enormous technological leap forward that it's more like a completely different species. In a video, the new robot is seen walking untethered in a snow-covered woods, lifting and placing boxes on shelves, and even face-planting and immediately getting up unscathed after being pushed by an engineer. |
