Imagine being a martian, enjoying the cave-life and suddenly a pack of spots comes down, each of them slightly different looking, searching, sniffing, watching... xD
A possibility could be a nuclear-powered base station that the Spot herd can return to and recharge. This also is necessary to send signals back to Earth.
I would like to see spot assemble a structure,,, each spot doing its job in completion of a structure. Then bombard Mars with them to assemble structure for the arrival of colonization.
Yes spot building more spots on Mars before arriving to Mars. Thousands of pre loaded space rockets from SpaceX also needed to be sent to Mars before arriving
Maybe they'll walk silly, like a dog with shoes. Lol. The mobility processor has rapid learn and adapt capabilities, it should figure it out pretty quickly. That's why they're so good at crossing any terrain and quickly recover from unexpected bumps, shoves, trips, drops, slips, etc..
Exactly. Their loads may be different and may have to be lower. They may need more robots to carry everything without getting strained. The lower gravity will make this more complicated.
well, this is all just good software, I'm sure they could just tweak some parameters and math does the rest of the magic. it probably would walk a bit slower in order not to go flying
Absolutely love this, imagine sending 30 of these working autonomously in a swarm from a Falcon heavy. Not just mapping terrain but also laying out cables for charging stations and preparing infrastructure for future manned missions! Absolutely astonishing. I wonder how much the martian dust may wear and tear on them long term and if they can be mars-proofed. The dust is really bad, containing many microscopic sharp particles similar to fiberglass and asbestos.
@@Bibibosh Small nuclear power sources have been around for decades and are widespread across the world. An RTG module for Spot is perfectly doable right now.
i guess a modified nuclear thermoeletric generator will work as the charge station , the main problem is the repair part and the heat desipation for the motors of our robodog, since the atmosphere is thin the temperature varies on day/night they will have to aggresivly test it so it wont fail on Mars.
Yea until they would have to climb.... I think they should learn how to handle robe with an anker so that it doesn't have to stop on the first bigger obstacle

This is a real game changer. It is a must to send a full squad of robots to mars/moon in every star ship. Their battery must contain isotopes instead of solar panels like curiosity or perseverance to increase their life expectancy and function for many years. They must be able to do exploring, mapping, science research, auto-repair and/or replace damaged parts from other robots or facilities and build things non-stop.
Am I the only one that's kinda in awe with how complicated nature is? I mean, we're building robots that are getting close to what the organic counterparts were doing naturally. And I mean how complicated an organism is, our robots are so far away from that, and still we're far away from where we started a "few" years ago (compared to the time we had on this planet)
Man this is so cool. I could imagine the future of space exploration where these robots will be the key in exploring unknown terrain. Just imagine these robots sent to other planets humanely impossible for longer duration of stay and the robots performing autonomous inspections on the environment. I believe this is how the future of space exploration will be done. This is way safer and the implications are just nuts.

@@americanskeptic138 or you know, think about the positive side, search and rescue. I'd be very happy to see these find me, if I was in some sort of cave in or something similar. This could make saving lives a heck lot more efficient.

I remember when I was a field geologist on the NASA Haughton Mars project. Good to see people like us will get replaced by incredible innovation and technology. Well done to all of you it's really exciting to watch this develop!
i was thinking, is there any caves in mars? if it had water in the past, then there might be caves too, and that is a good oportunity for space version of Spot to explore more of that planet
Highly likely, in fact we have marked noticeable cave-like entrances on Mars already. We also know Mars has Lava tubes which worm their way through underground. Subterranean exploration will likely be quite a large area of importance when we explore mars.
This is incredible. The future looks bright and we'll sooner than later figure out where life is on our solar system starting with Mars. Patience is key 🗝️
Awesome and absolutely interesting collab! When considering the difficulty and effort each outside mission would imply for the crew, this concept could certainly ensure mission lenght and decrease strain on suits, material, and personel all while saving valuable time and generating more data. Marvelous!
Mars and even our own cave exploration sounds great, but I'm really hoping to see these being used in search and rescue operations in the future. I love following these developments!
Redundancy, to a degree, would be good. If possible, each separate function should be achievable by at least one other robot if the primarily assigned robot experiences a malfunction or damage.
I bet in 20 years those robots sprints through parkours like actual Tigers. Or even running on walls and stuff, super agil and you cant escape from them.
That's the key technology for explorations in unknown environments, out-of-earth too - a milestone for human progress - compliments to all the teams for such amazing integrations
Imagine you are sleeping peacefully in your Martian cave system but then a *damn squad of dog-robots comes, shines the light in your face and trashes your place.* Thank you Boston Dynamics and NASA
When an Aussie explains something they make it sound so simple. "If you can't explain something to a 5 year old you don't understand it yourself" He's next level smart but still can speak to us apes 👍🏽🇭🇲
@Boston Dynamics - Would be great to see Spot with an ankle digit so it can low crawl in tight spaces, also a chain of small detachable underbelly Wi-Fi drones that connect and link to each other for coms in areas that would otherwise be impossible.
Martian terrains, a moon for balancing the movement and difference in gravity, and possibly rov's on the moon will train the data set's for other planets as they will all have to go through "initial startup standards" and trials of functioning within different environments accordingly.
But what can I do if I'm at a party and my beer is empty? Is there an attachment where I only have to place my cup on the ground and SPOT comes and fills it up?
I imagine one day, a robot the size of curiosity or perseverance, but it works as a base for 3 or 4 quadruped robots, maybe a drone. The base could carry some heavy scientific instruments, to analize samples, the drone scouting the area from the air to look for intresting places, and once the base arrives the intrest point, it deploys the robots to take closer looks, take samples, etc. After, the robots return to the base, recharge, and travel to the next point. The future is exciting!!!
NASA explores a cave system that leads to a under ground ancient civilization. NASA: nothing to see here, let’s move along and find a microbial life to show to the public.
Shit is gonna be crazy in 10 years. Imagine Spots of different sizes. The small ones could fit through tiny holes and carry equipment or even a dismantled bigger Spot, pieze by pieze and assemble on the other side.
Nice, but this spot should not useful for the most caves for discovery, but modify spot with module to fly - it's really will useful for every caves . Good luck
This is mind boggling !!!! Spot is created with so much detail that it is almost like a pet dog only it can be billion times more intelligent if need arise. SOA at its best.
For some reason I imagined a team of robots swabbing and inspecting a wall, fascinated by bacteria while a family of Martians is staring blankly at them from the corner.

Unless you're what it's looking for lol
For around 70 minutes, then Spot need re-charging :-(
A pack sounds better.

One of them sticking a swab in your face holes.
And they the martians start capturing and domesticating the spots and breed them into the equivalence of dogs.
