Incredible work by Boston Dynamics! Impressive progress! Parkour is the perfect sandbox for the Atlas team to experiment with new behaviors. Through jumps, balance beams, and vaults, we push Atlas to its limits to discover the next generation of mobility, perception, and athletic intelligence. https://bit.ly/3smGmB4 | Hashem Al-Ghaili

Boston Dynamics has released a new video of its quadruped robot Spot performing a series of impressive backflips. The video highlights Spot’s progress with reinforcement learning, which improves its ability to balance, recover from falls, and adapt to real-world environments. The performance was designed using Boston Dynamics’ Choreographer software, which breaks each routine into thousands of precise commands that coordinate balance, timing, and movement. | The Rundown
