i think it's the way they don't quite move like a human or animal, something weirdly abrupt and mechanical in the motions. I definitely got the same feeling

i guess they are owned by Hyundai or someone now. But I for one welcome our new Korean robot overlords,

I ordered luscious new gemstones from India and made new earrings for my SA mart thread

Remember my earrings and art are much better than my posting

New stuff starts towards end of page 3 of the thread

It's probably because everything in this video is now possible to imitate 100% in cgi.

That is an incredible amount of automation. Shifting weight to one foot while twisting... engineers, designers, programmers should be super proud. We don't have jetpacks and flying cars for the most part (I know we have them), but drat, the future is finally getting here.

Are they using lithium battery packs for a power source? How long does a charge hold for?

I'm not impressed. The hallmark to good dancing is doing the splits, then rising back up to a standing position like Cab Calloway. I get the feeling if these things tried to do the splits their legs would rip off.

Cool stuff. Has Boston dynamics ever actually sold anything and made any money or do they just consume it in the hopes they make robocops for the rich?

They sold a few dozen? Hundred? Spot robots last year, but all indications were that their long time CEO was only interested in puttering around his workshop building cool gizmos and gadgets without a single care as to their practical value

Recently however he retired to a less authoritative position in the R&D department, which is theorized to be part of a greater trend towards a more commercial focus for the company. The ostrich box mover bot is the first machine they’ve designed with a specific customer and business use-case in mind.

I think most of the purchases have been by researchers who had spare grant money or just rich people who thought they were cool and could justify it as a “business expense” like Elon Musk even if there wasn’t much practical value
