Oct 12, 2018Robots are scary enough to people who are worried about their capabilities, but how about adding parkour to their skill set?
Boston Dynamics posted a new video Thursday, showing their robot, Atlas, going to work on a parkour course.
Atlas showcased some impressive mobility and jumps as he maneuvered through the course, adding to a range of abilities that already includes box jumps and backflips.
In just a year, Atlas has improved from basic sprinting to having versatile skills that could help anyone in any situation.
