    Robot inspections are a really exciting idea. A robot ear can listen to a piece of machinery and compare the sound files to the same machine yesterday or last week. Or a robotic nose could detect a leak long before a human nose could detect it, plus a robot will never get bored or distracted. This kind of technology could make hazardous industries all over the world far less deadly.

      The only issue with this idea is that it is more practical to just deploy permanent sensors network instead - way cheaper and provides 24/7 monitoring with statistics.
      It can be great for inspections of places you don't own directly though, where owner can not be trusted to provide you reliable information.

      @@esuil alternatively, a permanent sensor network might cost more than Spot, if you have a sprawling complex with gauges and machines, now you'll need a sensor at each point of interface, some of those sensors could run a cool thousand dollars, do that a few times and you've paid a chunk of spots cost, now include ALL the wiring to connect all those sensors, and what not, suddenly its half of Spot or more.....

      spot is not going to replace permanent sensor networks which already do what you're talking about and have for decades now. things like spot have their uses but will certainly not be replacing permanent sensor networks any time soon. so far from what i have seen of spot's marketing relies on buzz generated by people who have no clue how industrial process monitoring is currently done. ultimately, in a potentially safety-critical situation where manual verification needs to be done, it needs to be done by a highly skilled human and robots will not be replacing skilled humans any time soon, only unskilled labor.

      The sensor reading line they kept repeating is kinda nonsense to be totally honest. It is way simpler and more effective to just use networked digital sensors everywhere you can than to buy a fleet of Spots to go use machine vision to read analog ones every hour. I'd guess most plants that really have a lot of gauges and the like are already using networked sensors.

    I think an autonomous battery hotswap option would substantially improve continuous Spot operations.
    Instead of a single charging station that also requires 2 hours of downtime to charge, Spot can simply drop its depleted battery and pick up a new one then resume it's tasks. In addition, hotswap stations can be strategically placed throughout facilities, not dissimilar to gas stations or Tesla's supercharger network.

    Some interesting things being added, can see how they would be useful, specially the arm.
    Other stuff I would like to see added is voice commands. If spot and a person are out working on something, the person could say "spot follow me" it would then track that person and follow them. "Spot return charge" it goes back to its charging place and charges up. "Spot patrol route 1" and it goes on patrol of route one and you could have a bunch of other routes ready for it. "Spot hole this" it reaches out with its arm, you put the thing you want it to hold in it and it holds it for you. "Spot record message" it brings its arm up higher, points camera at their face to record a video message from that person.
    So many things could things could be programmed in and less of a need for the control panel. If possible it could even be trained to only listen to a few specific people or to anyone giving it a command and that feature could be turned on and off by the operator of it.

Probably all civilians are out, but what if they aren't? What if someone else is trapped inside? And firefighters carry heavy equipment, sometimes over 50 kilograms, just so they can breathe in places near fire... it could be really dangerous for them to go inside because the building could collapse on them. And so they send Spot there. Its new variant, which is able to resist high temperatures and detect possible complications before the firefighters themselves enter the site. And I think this is only a small part of what humanity can achieve with such invention.

    It is interesting and scary at the same time. Imagine that this robo dogs patrol in the near future through the streets and looking for the last humans who have survived. Science Fiction becoming more and more reality.

    "Reducing the need to put people at risk". Risk is part of the game. Risk adds value to a life well lived. Risk is life. When you remove the value of life's challenge you diminish life itself. Where is "Man" to get value in Life if you've removed the challenge, the opportunity to face adversity and conquer it.

    Does Spot allow the creation of autonomous routines which involve pushing buttons, flipping switches, turning valves, and the like without any need for repeated human intervention?

    When spot will be able to autonomously clean a toilet. I will consider getting one 🤔
    Nevertheless - impressive work 👍

      Pretty sure it's already there. It has the dexterity and range of movement.

      I agree. It also needs to be able to clean itself afterwards. Especially if it’s a public restroom.
