‘SUCH A SHOWOFF’: Boston Dynamics has released a new video showcasing the skills of its Atlas humanoid robot — and we won’t lie, it’s pretty eye-opening. ‘In recent years, Boston Dynamics’ humanoid robot Atlas has wowed the world with its dance moves, and it has hurdled, hopped, and backflipped its way through a complex parkour course. Now, it’s time for Atlas to pick up a new set of skills,’ the company said in a statement accompanying the video. ‘For this new routine, the robot’s locomotion and sensing capabilities come up against the added challenge of not only detecting, gripping, and moving objects with different sizes, materials, and weights, but also staying balanced while negotiating those objects through the world.’ » Sign up for our newsletter KnowThis to get the biggest stories of the day delivered straight to your inbox: » Subscribe to NowThis: For more tech & science news, subscribe to @NowThisNews.
