Boston Dynamics just released an updated demonstration of Atlas. Check it out:
Here we can see that Atlas finally has hands. It’s able to pick up and move items intelligently. And Atlas even showed off the ability to toss a heavy tool bag up to a human worker. It did this by twisting its body as it jumped in the air.
This kind of movement may come natural to us humans. But it’s incredibly difficult to develop a robot that can perform these activities. What’s natural for humans is still a complex engineering problem to solve.
