Honestly, I think Boston Dynamics found it's best owner in Hyundai compared to it's predecessors. Google can't commit to a large moonshot project for it's life, *especially* when it comes to hardware. Softbank's robots have perpetually been in the weird entertainment and service stage and little else for over a decade. Hyundai on the other hand has decades of robotics, industrial and manufacturing experience that can greatly benefit a burgeoning and innovating new robotics company. Considering BD started selling their robots right before the buyout, Hyundai's the perfect fit for them to expand operations. Now if they get sold off *again*, then there might be something fucky with the company.

Story synopsis, SoftBank purchased B.D. In 2017 for 165 million, then in 2020 sold 80% stake for 880 million. A profit of more than 715 million for 3 years ownership = obscene. Great potential, but DARPA money from U.S. Taxpayers never received any of that kind of return on their investment. Maybe Hyundai, with their shipping empire, and quicker acceptance of proof of concept, will provide stable ownership. A number of years ago, people thought neither Roomba vacuums nor flying drones would ever be affordably priced enough for people to own.

I can envision military use, security, search & rescue or recovery, even space exploration. But I kept coming back to how helpful some of these designs are for people who might otherwise have to leave their homes due to disability or age/health issues. Some of these little guys could help them stay in their homes or apartments, help them manage meds, monitor for seizures or such, monitor for fire or carbon monoxide alarms for the deaf, keep those with dementia from wandering off alone (perhaps keeping doors locked or following someone while calling a family member or police, like a silver alert). Also could keep an eye on the nanny or home health aide to ensure they are doing their job and not neglecting or abusing someone defenseless. Maybe assist those who are caregivers by allowing them more time to take care of themselves by helping in some ways. So long as none of them go V.I.K.I. on us, this could be great.

I understand the concern regarding automation of the workforce, but I really don't think there's any way to fight the future in this case, and rather than trying to legislate them out of use, I think we need to petition our governments to prepare for the establishment of a more-generous social-infrastructure, leveraging the enormous boosts to economic-productivity to pad tax coffers (which will be its own challenge, at least here in the US). Things will probably have to get pretty bad, as far as unemployment, but when corporations have no more customers to purchase their goods and services, they'll have no choice but to lobby for social programs like UBI. It'll definitely be rough, as our society navigates this disruption.

I immediately disabled that feature on the thermostat as well as turned off the echo that was in the same room. And walked upstairs, closed my bedroom door, and continued my call there where there wasn’t any AI enabled devices.

However if tech keeps going the way it is we might be able to cure blindness through a brain chip that stimulates the vision area (back of brain) or by replacing eyes either biological or digitally. While the ai could still get lost in newer areas it would be perfect for the city or town the person lives in as over time the dog "knows" the streets

Hasn't that always kind of been the point of tech lol

Best of luck to Hyundai and other South Korean owned companies!!

DARPA have been working on robotics and improving the ones they have designed and built over time. The company should not be sold to anyone outside the U.S., or U.K. to keep Chinese interest from getting their technology.

I think Boston Dynamics should embrace the creepy/dark aspect of robot fiction. How about making Spot's head randomly split open like the sled dogs' head did in that 1982 John Carpenter's "The Thing" with Kurt Russel. For you youngsters, google it. It's a bit dated but wow, just wow. Make a charging station with an ugly knife like charging probe that Spot impales itself upon when it needs power. Couple that with some suitable pitiful dying screams and whimpers and you'd have a nightmare in the making. The best yet, have Spot randomly approach people and whisper something seriously creepy. Oh, the possibilities! A good video is the one where a guy programs Spot to pee beer into a red plastic cup like the ones they play beer pong with, lol. I'm sorry, I get this way when subjected to corporate speak by company reps. I really think Spot and the others are cool, and the progress they and others have made in the field of robotics is impressive. Keep up the awesome work. BTW, can you make a big Pokeball that Spot can fit in? If I could just throw it I'd be golden.

That's a great idea. They've been in business 30+ years and haven't invented anything useful and have gotten $$millions from the government. The horror film aspect will definitely save them and be great entertainment.

They are expensive but I'd love to have one

wow, amazing video

I want to see 10 dog robots race up a steep hiking trail. It could be like gambling on horse racing

When Google saves tons of money avoiding to pay annual taxes, it can invest that saved money to purchase new companies.

I'm just waiting for XJ-9. Iykyk

Ro bot nay de thuong cua va thong minh nua (!!!: I)

imagine spot mounted with a gimbled camera. suddenly you have teh perfect platform or news achors and journalists to do live content as a one man crew

[Knock, knock] "Sarah Conner?" "Yes?" [BANG!!!!!!!!!!!]

People were creeped out when Walmart had the robot that scanned the items on the shelf. Now imagine a full humanoid one greeting you

There’d be a lot less shoplifting 😂

Saw spot in Battlefield 2042 :)

Definitely this is the future. Not 10 years later, just 2 or 3 years later.

Explain why.

For space exploration, I believe nuclear batteries would be the ideal fit for Spot. In such harsh environnement, it's not good to bet the robot will be able to come back to base as planned to get a recharge. Nor it is responsable to count on solar panels, since a dust storm could easily ruin the panels.

A robot should defined as an intelligent machine which can safely make contact with an uncontrolled environment. “Seeing with the mind”, not just the eyes and other senses, is demonstrated by enguneers with vector graphics. I would suggest that engineers focus working on a collision impact mitigation system for its car/robot. Solving the Contact Problem, unsolved by Japan’s Sixth Generation Computer Science, Robotics, and companies, such as Honda, SoftBank, Boston Dynamics, and Tesla, and all physicists, will be a breakthrough of historical significance.

Can spot be up graded to replace a wheel chair???

i would totaly buy one of them. id love a spot to help me shovel, move heavy things, protect the house. id pay up to maybe... 20-30K for one

It seems community colleges need to expand their programs in robotics to have technicians to fix these robots at least in Massachusetts.

The real Belters. A small army of Spots landing on Psych 16.

Boston Dynamics was on relay from one big company to other for several years now. From giants such as Google, Softbank, and now Hyundai Group. This shown no matter how impressive Boston Dynamics is it's bleeding money like crazy and owners don't know what to do with this company and how to make money out of it. BD's fate in Hyundai's hand is the same where nobody can predict for how long and how willing Hyundai want to throw money into it and yet makes zero results except cool KZread videos.

I think Hyundai may actually have the advantage this time because BD is now finally selling commercial robots. This gives Hyundai some leverage compared to the previous companies where they focused most of the money into the R&D but no commercial profits. Softbank probably knows this which is why they still hold some of the shares.

I think they've found their perfect fit with Hyundai compared to it's predecessors. Google can't commit to a large moonshot project for it's life, especially when it comes to hardware. Softbank's robots have perpetually been in the weird entertainment and service stage and little else for over a decade. Hyundai on the other hand has decades of robotics, industrial and manufacturing experience that can greatly benefit a burgeoning and innovating new robotics company. Plus "zero results"? Despite, ya know, actually selling robots to companies? They've genuinely started commercializing proper in the last year or so.

Wow these robots are more agile that most people I've seen 🤣🤣🤣🤣
