I appreciate that the scrapes and dents in Atlas's bodywork have been left intact. It gives it a kind of honesty that comes from hard work and effort. Thanks... EDIT: To everyone who thinks this is simple cost cutting. I doubt it. I'm sure they have the money to have a spare set of bodywork to throw on after most of the testing is done and they know the public is about to see the latest moves. I usually avoid speculation but my guess would be that they were too busy just trying to make it work and they didn't really think about the aesthetics. Glad they didn't, makes it so much more relatable.

True. Thanks to that, it gives more credibility to the project/work of these people. Plus, it gives it a "Cyberpunk" look, from the damage that looks like it went through a lot to get to where it is, without being a sci-fi bad thing, of course. Although that won't stop people from thinking this is done in CGI. XD

@jam99 Yeah I used to follow ASIMO updates back in the day, but it was always so theoretical, and any demonstrations were clearly faked or just remote controlled… I mean it was an impressive machine, nothing really walked like that before ASIMO, but the promo videos would always claim way more than was even close to reality. (BTW, I know there was work done in more natural gait robots, but… they didn’t get funding I guess… not sure what happened. Then Boston Dynamics came along. Still doesn’t seem to have the natural stride of some of those walkers I’ve seen… but getting there
7:05 Don't know if anyone thought this but it's mindblowing to me that this is the first time I've felt compassion for a robot. It obviously doesn't feel any pain and so wasn't reaching to its side because of this but something about that action after falling and the way it was dragged off with limp legs looked so unbelievably human. This is going to be a strange world to live in one day.

I feel in the last 2 years we've seen an explosion in A.I for the first time but robotics is still so far behind. I think A.I is doing all the heavy lifting funnily enough for robotics and we'll see more happening because of A.I leaps but the technical limit of batteries and physical engineering is just so far behind my sci-fi vision of what the future would and should be. But its all based on movies and books where they can have magically solved these issues. The real world has this stubborn property of anything physically based being enormously difficult. Fingers crossed 2023 will be a break out year for robotics.

From 3:04 they talk about how they try to make atlas include the mass of the heavy objects into its movement calculations. My guess is that this movement is not hard coded, but shows the result of the code being able to calculate the trajectory of the bag after receiving instructions like: take bag at approximately location X, go to location Y and throw to location Z. I assume the physics calculations happened on the fly

@@leeoiou7295 software engineering deals with stuff like data analysis, making applications and creating websites and games, etc. It is pretty different from making robots or other systems that interact with or measure the real world. Sure having a software engineer on the team may be helpful but it seems they aren’t purely a software engineer. You also then get subsets within software engineering like machine learning or video processing, although from what I have seen those can also be taught to EEs. The physics and equations used and reading the data from the sensors is much more the domain of mechanical and electrical engineers than it is software engineers. Writing code for embedded systems is very different from writing code designed to run on a desktop computer or server. A lot of what software engineers may be used to using just doesn’t work or isn’t a good idea, like a lot of embedded systems need programmed in C, not Python since performance is limited, or you can’t use recursion all that much due to limited memory and stack. Not saying that you don’t need software engineers just that a pure software engineer wouldn’t be that useful, it might be better to capture them under the umbrella term of robotics engineer, which is a very broad term combining, electrical, mechanical and a little bit of software engineering amongst other disciplines. There is a big difference between writing software to run on a server or computer and running it on a physical device like a robot.

@@conorstewart2214 Of course pure software engineer would not do much here, as would not do pure electrical engineer or mechanical engineer. In complex systems like this you need experts in their respective fields to put this whole thing together. But the work of software engineer here is as important as of electrical engineer or mechanical engineer. Without actual proper software your sensors and the entire robot is just a piece of metal. Can an electrical engineer write some code, probably. Can a software engineer connect a few pins and wires probably can. But it takes a lot to build these things hence they have software engineers and electric engineers not just one doing everything. Concerning embedded system development of course it might take some different tools and languages to work with it, but it is still a software and any competent software engineer who worked for example in system development or even in web dev can handle it.

I think they are great, and really help to create a more positive image of the company.
I'm curious, are you all going to advance Atlas' feet? A few times I saw him lose balance and fall, and saw many times that he would simply jump to turn around. What about if he were to be carrying an object with a non-stable center of mass, such as a bucket of liquid or small particulates? We generally use our toes to exert a balancing force when picking up objects, carrying, throwing them. I'd just be interested to know the current thoughts on this, and where you are in the iterative process.

Yeah, the human foot has a great deal of bones compared to other parts of the body, and there are many nuances in how it can articulate. Some of that complexity is due to our ability to switch "gears" from low-energy walking on our heels to high energy running on the balls of our feet, so for a slow robot we could probably reduce the complexity to focus on walking articulation.

Astonishing how this makes one wonder how incredible our own bodies are since we are unconscious about how intricate just picking up an object is for us. Decades ago Disney amongst others found out that fluid motion in it mechanical characters weren't about stopping but returning to a fixed point when moving. They called it compliance, by having an armature slow then use its inertia to return to the point desire not just halt allowed a motion few though possible in an animated device.

Here's an amusing anecdote from early days. A computerized arm that was was being used by an early hand-eye system was programmed to gather and stack some childhood blocks. It tried to stack the topmost block first. The programmers realized that they had learned about gravity well before they ever attempted to stack blocks. So they had to go back to the _real basics_ and add that knowledge to their software. Yes, some of the most impressive work Boston Dynamics has done is in the stuff we all take for granted.

In 2030 we’ll have robots with extremely advanced and powerful actuators that can make true robots/androids that are as strong/stronger whilst being as flexible and agile as humans, together with denser battery breakthroughs and far more advanced ai neural systems enabling robots to be as smart/smarter and capable as humans whilst being able to emulate consciousness. It really is coming, fast. I’m beyond excited. I will say however, I think androids/robots should always be distinct from humans (even androids with human forms) I.e not having human-like skin etc. I wouldn’t mind dating a robot girl lol
Human ingenuity is awe inspiring.
The last trick is called a B-Twist! Greatly done, can't wait to see when they do corkscrews haha
Its crazy how talented these people are.
The scratches make it look, amazing
I just recently saw this channel. I love it! Fascinating!!
Okay, that's pretty amazing! The finding the bag in the environment and then strategizing on how to interact with it is so cool.
Followed this for some years now. The progress is amazing!
So amazing! Thanks so much for explaining.
It's amazing....He will surely change this world dramatically.
The spin-flip was WILD. It’s amazing how gracefully it can do things that pro athletes practice years to do!

Why is it very scary ? Robotics can already do things we are incapable of.. we have been using cranes to lift and move heavy things for years

@@MaMastoast the scary thing isn’t the physical capability existing - it’s the fact that the machine is acting on its own more than a human is controlling it. Cranes, heavy construction equipment, things that could easily squish humans, are all operated by humans and human intent; Atlas is given instructions and carries them out on its own. What if an AI were to decide what instructions to send? And what if that AI decides to do things that are bad for humans, and between being able to formulate and execute plans faster and superior power in hardware it decided to destroy humanity? I don’t think it’s likely to happen, but there is something scary about autonomous machines that could take out humans.
Watching the evolution of you guys in real time on KZread has been absolutely crazy. It really is incredible and scary at the same time but i have hope we'd have some robot allies among rogue ai's idk maybe i watch too much stuff lmao
Amazing what the team has done bring this machine alive , congratulations 👏
Atlas is amazing being able to do some impressive things that you wouldn't expect from a robot
This is absolutely mind blowing and fantastic! Congrats to all involved!
You guys have one of the best jobs in the world. Your grandkids will be proud of you
I find all of this very intriguing not only will this save lives it's also very cool to watch
This is amazing! Hope to meet one of these robots in my lifetime. Great work!

I'd rather meet Amica. At least you can have a conversation with her.
i wish we saw more insight videos i love watching these and the amazing things people are doing.
Inside the lab is my favorite "series" from this channel. Thank you for sharing this inside look at what it takes to make machines like this.
Your group has been doing a beautiful job 🤗
You’re all awe inspiring.
This is mind blowing. Well done team!
The parallels between this and the hacksmith’s recent hexapod video are not lost on me, only vindicates their efforts more. What a fascinating era.
Very inspirational video, thanks
Wow this is amazing. Awesome team.
Every time i watch one of the Boston Dynamics update videos, i feel more hopeful for the future of humanity. And a little bit more scared. Especially with that ''sick trick'' :)
Geniuses making history! Well integrated team for sure !
incredible guys. that's awesome
Great team! I can see additional sensors in Atlas' future so he can adapt quicker to changing conditions in his environment. The issue would appear to be how far you can push the envelope regarding the response time for the sensors (how quickly can you close the loop on all sense-response actions). Bravo!!
Boston Dynamics, you make really cool things!
Followed you guys for years! It’s amazing what you have achieved! I’m anxious to see what’s next!
No Pain No Gain💪🏻💪🏻 Your endeavors and perspectives are great and so adorable👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻😊
Восхищение таким инженерам и программистам... 👏
6:50 whoop whoop whoop!
I know there's a lot of people who are scared of robots and AI but i don't care and i just want to see how far it will go. We're getting closer and closer to robots like ATLAS being able to executee complex commands such as clean the whole house, drive a car from point A to point B, do an open heart surgery, etc. The possibilities are endless and I'm really excited to see how it goes.

Oh my godddd I wish I worked for them. This team is amazing.
Something tells me, the robot is slightly more advanced and capable than they are letting on. It warms my heart that future iterations will be used to entertain us, and not off us.
