In a way. The motion was not spectacular like Boston Dynamics.
But any walking robot especially at that height and size is a significant engineering achievement.
And they have been working on it for months rather than years. And the system is entirely electric unlike Boston Dynamics.
The last demo was a person in a suit.
Your expectations were unrealistic if you are not impressed.
- tonant 4y agoSimilar robots are built every year in colleges around the globe by jr robotics teams. Walking robots have been around for 25 plus years. There was zero to be impressed about. Walking robots are to robotics as hello world is to programming.
- sixQuarks 4y agoCan you show us some examples?
- Andys 4y agoIt was not simply programmed to walk, it was also using computer vision to decide where to walk too
- cma 4y agoIt looked like a very crude depth occupancy model.
- rcMgD2BwE72F 4y ago>very crude depth occupancy model Same as Tesla's FSD and 100% vision based. Is it crude too? I thought it was state of the art…
- ztratar 4y ago"Walking robots are to robotics as hello world is to programming." You say this confidently, but it is nowhere close to true.
- glalonde 4y agoAtlas is also electric. An electric motor tied to a gear pump presumably.
