Boston Dynamics teaches Atlas to play football using motion capture + RL for the Ghost Rabona kick. The whole-body coordination required transfers directly to industrial manipulation tasks.
Boston Dynamics shares how Atlas learns whole-body lifting via RL: from reference trajectories and reward design to GPU-scale simulation and real-hardware iteration, demonstrating fundamental building blocks of physical intelligence.
Boston Dynamics integrates Google Gemini into Orbit AIVI-Learning, giving Spot robots advanced reasoning and complex visual analysis for industrial inspections including gauge readings, 5S audits, and pallet counting.
Boston Dynamics traces Atlas' decade-long evolution from hydraulic parkour research platform to electric industrial humanoid. 2026 production-ready Atlas unveiled with Hyundai, already deployed for part sequencing at the Hyundai metaplant.
