Robotics company Boston Dynamics has released a new video of Atlas, a humanoid robot that performs tasks without human intervention.
in Video has been published Alongside futuristic laboratories, robots can be seen easily performing mechanical physical tasks without human guidance.
According to the video's caption, bags of bolts simulate factory work as they move engine covers between supplier containers and mobile sequence dollies.
The company emphasized that the humanoid is “fully autonomous,” meaning it uses machine learning vision models to adapt to changing conditions.
The video includes shots of what Atlas sees while performing its tasks, revealing a somewhat fish-eye view with highlighted recognition of the objects it's processing.
“There are no prescribed or remotely controlled movements. All motion is generated online and autonomously. The robot is able to detect and react to changes in its environment, including:” Boston・The dynamics engineer explained.
Earlier this month, Boston Dynamics introduced Atlas to the world. The head somehow reminds me of Pixar's lamp.
Boston Dynamics says Atlas is intended for commercial use and is designed to tackle “real-world applications.” In the video, wireline workers demonstrate that they can do their job perfectly if left to their own devices after simply being presented with a “list of trash can locations.”
This new version of Atlas is fully electric, allowing for a wider range of movement than previous generation humanoids, the company says. stated on their site.
This all-electric model is a departure from previous versions that operated using hydraulics.

Social media criticized Atlas for being creepy. In particular, in a video published on
The revelation of this new advancement comes after Elon Musk's Tesla unveiled a new humanoid robot called Optimus.
At the unveiling ceremony earlier this month, Optimus models sipped beers and interacted with guests in a surprisingly conversational tone. One reason for this is that the bots were controlled remotely by humans.
The Post reported that experts say it will take 10 years for robots to emerge and function in society.
