This April, Boston Dynamics announced the discontinuation of their hydraulic Atlas and introduced the successor, a completely electric Atlas robot engineered for practical applications. The new electric Atlas looks stronger, and more flexible than its predecessors. The forthcoming iteration of the Atlas program is a culmination of more than 11 years of research, reinforcing their dedication to providing the most proficient, beneficial mobile robots that address the most demanding issues in the industry today: with Spot, Stretch, and now, the new Atlas.

I like that you brought up competitors, but boston dynamic still seems heads and shoulders above everyone else

@CuriousLion-ll2we 27 күн бұрын

I agree, Boston Dynamics are streets ahead of the competition. I mean, how much have learnt by trial and error over the last 11 years with Atlas HD? Everybody else like Figure, Apptronik, UBTech, LimX Dynamics, Sanctuary are just doing catch up... Thanks for the comment! Very much appreciated :)

New Atlas looks sick! Scary to see those omnidirectional movements.

I love the new more compact design. Can’t wait to see more releases from Boston Dynamics!

the one with the wheels handle or whatevery it was called was the best hunter killer design imo.

I’ve always been impressed with Boston Dynamics and what they’ve been able to accomplish; however, their new Atlas may be a leap forward when it comes to capabilities, but it is also creepy as hell. And not the “uncanny valley” sort of creepy, I’m talking about the “this is how a sci-fi horror movie” begins level of creepy.

It is the way to moves like a horror movie scene and the speed of the movements that are freaking people out.

NASA and other Research Institutes in Europe are already investigating the use of robots for space exploration. Space is harsh environment so those robots will have to be bullet proof design to survive! Thanks for the comment :)

Don't you think it's more efficient to give these robots wheels like Wall-E's?

@justcallmebrian793 28 күн бұрын

Why not legs, since this world is design by humans. Having a wheel robot is very limited! Also Atlas is designed beyond the capabilities of most humans. Boston Dynamics is definitely the head of the part, since they have years of experience of testing the old Atlas.

I think 1X Technologies have gone this way with their EVE robot but this may limit how versatile the robot can navigate in difficult terrains. It would work well for manufacturing sites with flat surfaces and could simplify the design. That's a good point.

@CuriousLion-ll2we 27 күн бұрын

Replacing hydraulics with electrics was the way to go for Boston Dynamics. Servo motors are slimmer and more intelligent with force sensing feedback these days, it makes it easier to generate smooth movements while packing a punch of torque to carry heavy loads. Everybody else like Figure, Apptronik is just doing catch up with Boston.

Telsa, give up on this market. This isn't your thing.

@CuriousLion-ll2we 18 күн бұрын

With the EV car industry having a wobble at the moment, I think Tesla are trying hard to diversify their market as much as possible before it is too late and file for bankruptcy in 2-3 years at this rate. Optimus looks promising though but they are miles behind Boston Robotics.

@charliehorse8686 18 күн бұрын

@@CuriousLion-ll2we I've owned a Tesla, and I don't anymore because I don't want one. At first, they were the only ones with a high-range EV and good charging infrastructure. But that's no longer the case and the public is SO OVER the "minimalist design". It's not too much to ask for a speedometer and turn signals directly right in front of the driver, to name just one. And touchscreens are annoying (in ANY car) when a car is in motion. The touchscreen was cute and clever, but gimicky. The public wants buttons and knobs, so get over it Elon. Whew! I think I just got triggered. ;-)

The Boston Dynamics Dog Robot looks electric. So this isn't really a New Era for them. Just a new humanoid shape

@CuriousLion-ll2we 12 күн бұрын

That's true. They have been playing around with SPOT for quite some time now. It will be interesting to see if Boston can integrate the smooth movements of the hydraulic Atlas into the new full electric counterpart.
