keep in mind Atlas, the robotic that can run like someone? it could now do lots greater than that.

the day gone by, (Oct. eleven) robotics company Boston Dynamics published a brand new video on YouTube showcasing the robot's

latest progress, wearing it past its prior agility dreams in leaps and limits — actually.

"Atlas does parkour," Boston Dynamics wrote in the video description. footage indicates Atlas nimbly jumping over a log and

skipping among systems of various heights "with out breaking its tempo," according to the outline. [Robots on the Run! 5 Bots That Can Really Move]

As Atlas navigates the demanding situations of the obstacle direction, a gradual-movement collection emphasizes the precision

in its movements because it leaps among platforms, every one measuring about 16 inches (40 centimeters) high. software program

and vision sensors manage Atlas's navigation, in step with the video description — despite the fact that, the robotic's

coordination appear remarkably humanlike for a device.

described at the Boston Dynamics website as "the arena's maximum dynamic humanoid," Atlas has a four-limbed, bipedal body

that might invite comparison to the human frame no matter how the robotic moved. but in a sequence of motion pictures

released over the previous couple of years, Atlas demonstrates mobility this is uncannily human: getting better after being

shoved, acting backflips, strolling over a grassy subject and practising robotic parkour.

the prospect of a humanoid robot that can jump, backflip and certain once you over rugged terrain is unsettling sufficient,

however Atlas's creators at Boston Dynamics maintain pushing the bot closer to ever extra ambitious gymnastic achievements.
