Boston Dynamics boasts that its robot Atlas is the world's most dynamic humanoid. To support its boast, the team reminds the world that Atlas uses balance and whole-body skills to achieve its two-handed mobile manipulation. A new video leaves little for argument.
The video shows Atlas taking a jog. And gee, couldn't an unaided biped robot get some air without techies' headlines busting out all over? The answer was No. Atlas had no such privacy. His makers, Boston Dynamics, are happy to show it off to the world.
