I have been fascinated with the development of robots. Maybe it's a leftover from "Terminator." Perhaps, "I, Robot."
Who knows?
As a result over the years I have posted the development of the technology from Boston Dynamics (BD), at least the stuff they let us see because I am pretty certain killer robots exist and it's just a matter of time. We already have drones which have effectively ended lives without risking one (or more) ... ironic.
Anyway, BD has been developing at such a fast rate one of its signature bots, Atlas, is being retired. My guess is it is obsolete. This video is terrific, and laugh out out material, because it charts the journey of Atlas through all of its stages.
Enjoy getting a chuckle out of it because before too long the robots will probably become "self-aware" and target all of mankind.
Have a nice weekend.
Okay, I will won't make you wait ...
Meet the All New Atlas!
