Boston Dynamics seems to be hell-bent on replacing humans with robots…
And their newest video will start to make you think that they aren’t too far off.
Boston Dynamics’ Atlas robot can now do parkour! The 30-second video is truly amazing and eerily reminiscent of a Terminator movie. You can almost visualize the humanoid robot trudging across a battlefield, wielding its weapon against the human race. In this short video, Atlas can be seen hurdling over logs and bounding up a set of staggard boxes without breaking stride.
This is just another progression in Atlas’ evolution. Over the last year, Boston Dynamics has released videos of Atlas performing two-legged box jumps, running through the woods and even performing a flip.
