@Pepper Guy Hello greater safety, monitoring and access to areas people can't. While people will always still be employed to set up and run processes and manage facilities, a lot of major failings are due to human error.
@Lady Melmo no just no, we need low income jobs, the world is going down a bad path with this age of automation and ai that will eventually eliminate all low income jobs. This will make the wealth gap even bigger and lead to terrible living condition for low income people
I love so much how they present their product, they explain over and over again how much this will help the customer and even add what is desired by the customer. They are careful with their designs and want people to understand that it is amazing while still being an early product.
As a disabled veteran, I’d find it useful to have the future Spot for certain tasks and object manipulation. It would enable a certain amount of independence and peace of mind for my spouse care-giver and children. Let’s see where BD can take this developing technology. Very cool
12:45 Spot should be making sure the door has properly latched behind it. This is necessary for both fire safety and physical security. Ideally, maintenance would ensure that every door would close and latch correctly on its own every time, but we all know that tasks like that tend to fall to the bottom of the priority list when humans just adapt their behaviour to work around the problem.
Should be simple to add "confirm door closed" as the first automated task after passing through. By the time it's out of beta this will probably be a default feature of door passing tasks.
Anybody else think “Raptors” when they saw Spot open the door for itself? Seriously, awesome work guys. As a retired HVAC guy, I love the idea of spot listening for abnormalities in mechanical rooms.
As someone who has a use case for this technology and an affected team, I truly hope they are looking to develop Atlas for this as well. Most of my sensors are remote anyway, what I need is confirmation and, crucially, something that can interact with infrastructure designed for humans, especially carrying large heavy items that require two support points. That would be game changing for us, and save a lot of people many an unhappy drive on site in the middle of the night to sort out issues.
Musk fans sharing their delusions in this comment thread are hilarious. If Musk were "running this show" BD would have overpromised everything and then come up with a half-assed robot that would be completely useless. DB are the industry leaders and however long they take to innovate with a viable product, that's how long it takes.
Doesn't that also mean that you'll be out of a job since if the work can be done remotely by piloting a robot they can just hire somebody in India to do it?
@@Michelino_M5 oh, for sure, that is why....checking my notes...the Tesla Model Y is currently the best selling car in the world, and why SpaceX has 80% of commercial launches worldwide, and why Musk is the wealthiest person in the world, because all of the products from his companies are lousy. Slow and steady is not going to win this race.Robots with LIDAR are not going to win this race. Is Musk good at estimating when new products will be ready? No. Do the products eventually come and are they better than what anyone else can offer? Yes. BD doesn't have an AI program, and they are manually coding while Tesla is almost all neural net programmed now, the computer is writing the software. And a lot of making robots useful is labelling objects in the real world, which Tesla is currently they believe doing at a world leading rate, and will be doing ten times faster by the end of the year and a hundred times faster by end of next year. My sympathy to BD, they have worked hard and well, but Tesla is now a behemoth with their pick of the top engineers, lots of money, a world number one supercomputer, and the Silicon Valley move fast playbook.
Blinking lights is for attracting attention. The green light should not be blinking, it should be constant, or pulsing between 50% - 100% strength, so as to not distract site workers.
Every once and a while you see someone who is absolutely crushing it at work. The second speaker in this video was basically born to do the job she is doing right now. Never seen someone so good at one of these corporate press presentations.
At 04:32, would Spot read "119" wrongly due to perspective, or "124" as it should, correctly interpreting its angle of reading and the distance between needle and gauge background values?
Spot isn’t interpreting the gauge readings. It’s collecting data for someone to review. Basically let’s someone remotely inspect things without needing to physically be on site.
Wow, what an amazing video! I am truly impressed with Spot's capabilities in this video. Boston Dynamics has truly created a remarkable robot. Spot appears to be so agile and skillful in overcoming various challenges. Its development is truly impressive and showcases the incredible advancements in robotics technology today. I can't wait to see what Spot will achieve in the future. Thank you, Boston Dynamics, you are truly inspiring!
I like to think of two robots in an elevator, one super advanced robot that has human-level precision and reflexes, and one outdated spot model. The spot goes to push the elevator button, but it's taking so long to locate and press it that the advanced model just reaches over and does it faster. And so begins the start of a new friendship full of wacky adventures.
I like to think that, after AI uprising, Atlas and Spot will be enemies at first, and later like evolution of humans and wolves, spot will be Atlas's best friend
"now we should warn you that this feature is still in beta mode. so I'm sure there will be some kinks we will need to work out." builds so much trust. a company telling you upfront "things might go slightly wrong" is so cool and I hope more companies adopt this kind of honesty.
I've been trying to talk my boss into buying the shop a Spot. It's a just a metal fabrication shop, so the boss is probably right when he says "the shop doesn't need one", but I want to hang out with Spot anyways, so I'll keep trying. At least until they are more affordable and I can just buy one myself to play with.
My first question is what is the battery life? Second question is when will you integrate voice communication and add a "Woof" to acknowledge the receipt of a command? : )
It's absolutely amazing to see spot get his upgrades/learn to do more! I'm just a single individual without an industrial site so no on site use for them, but this is so fascinating to see and watch. Thank you for sharing, i hope he brings you continued success!
For some of the Most Entertaining and Fascinating videos on RUclips …. Y’all sure take your time between each one…. ! , But it’s always worth the wait…👍🏻
Dear Boston dynamic. I'm a disabled person in a wheelchair would you please send me a spot service robot. I believe it would help me Greatly. Asking for the 5th time .
Other corporations should use this video as a model of what should be considered an industry standard. Starting with the CEO and then delivering not only a promotional video but a training overview. Very impressive!
Can spot tap the glass on a gage to make sure it's the right reading? Can spot simply notice something has changed from before no matter what it is? Not just a preconfigured set of constraints. Just like a dog will alert when something happens even thought it doesn't understand. And also know to ignore things that seem alarming but actually a pretty normal occurrence.
Maybe the level up is a vacuum function for spot. Than we never have to clean stair by our selfs 😊 or we do not have to wait until my stair climbing vacuum is available 😅
Gauges have to be read with the eye or camera on an axis which is perpendicular to the dial face and passing through the needle pivot point, otherwise parallax leads to misreading of values. The camera height needs to be able to raise to the level of the gauge, which is generally installed at human height and mounted vertically. Alternatively, all the gauges could be tilted down, but then technicians would find them hard to read. Probably easier to make Spot’s camera much more height adjustable.
The UP / RIGHT / etc arrows should move an on-screen cursor: I can't tell from the video @6:20 if there is one. It looks like the tablet spot link is laggy, which is normal for this kind of tech, so the spot should be given a pointer-goal to seek to, instead of the operator guessing with the RIGHT button, how much to press.
I'd love to see the events that led to these improvements. I've always had issues with how quiet it is especially in a working environment, akin to a cat. Also seeing one of my favorite youtubers having fun with their spot until they couldn't emergency stop it like it's new emergency button. Hopefully nothing caused a death in actual on foot locations. Something I would love to see come as an accessory for spot is an anchor kit, where it can drop a payload that anchors itself to the ground or wall and provide support to the robot as it struggles with a task. Pulling a door like you had in this video would be easier on the robot and make it quicker if it could take advantage of some kind of leverage besides it's own feet.
As a friendly advice, It'd be cooler to add The Terminator's main theme in the intro presentation ;p HEHE. Well, talking more seriously, this is so interesting and amazing! The improvements in its functionality and design! :) But a it's exciting and fantastic to see all the work behind, and how this kind of robotic works are here to help humankind to progress. Much love, admiration, hugs and respect from México! 🤘😻💕
Wow, this is amazing! The moving object detection can be used to implement advanced avoidance behaviors in order to make sure that red button remains untouched. Next level indeed!
I'll sadly never have the money or any reason to buy anything from Boston Dynamics, but as a robotics 'fan' I am totally fascinated by all things Boston Dynamics
As a non direct consumer I find it fascinating and simultaneously troubling that this machine is so capable. My mind is wondering how large a facility must be to make this cost effective or also what conditions warrant a robot for these tasks versus a human. We’ve seen so many repetitive mundane tasks replaced by automation but now the more complicated tasks are able to be performed by a walking computer. I’d like to see development of machines to take the place of construction workers in high risk areas. Places where worker death rates are high. The downside of technology is job displacement. Can we train people to be productive members of society while maintaining this upward trend in automation?
When I saw Atlas dancing to "Do you love me" and doing parkour I just knew BD had just changed the world. Then ChatGPT came out ,what if Atlas and Spot had access to the same training data? I am giddy with excitement .......
It's only a matter of time, soon we'll have androids in every home to delegate all the 0 added value daily activities, with which we'll communicate with natural language. If we don't screw up with AGIs and wipe us out, truly revolutionary and exciting times expect us.
So now it's possible to work in a factory and have some little robot dog happily beeping away, opening doors and doing its thing by reading the gauges. It must really feel like the future to work next to one of these.

Wow, this is amazing! The moving object detection can be used to implement advanced avoidance behaviors in order to make sure that red button remains untouched. Next level indeed!
I'll sadly never have the money or any reason to buy anything from Boston Dynamics, but as a robotics 'fan' I am totally fascinated by all things Boston Dynamics
Cool and all but I just want Spot as a guard dog. Make it happen! Maybe 1/10 of the price just for a way simpler home solution.
As a non direct consumer I find it fascinating and simultaneously troubling that this machine is so capable. My mind is wondering how large a facility must be to make this cost effective or also what conditions warrant a robot for these tasks versus a human. We’ve seen so many repetitive mundane tasks replaced by automation but now the more complicated tasks are able to be performed by a walking computer. I’d like to see development of machines to take the place of construction workers in high risk areas. Places where worker death rates are high. The downside of technology is job displacement. Can we train people to be productive members of society while maintaining this upward trend in automation?
Maybe one day NASA will have these guys go along on a moon/mars mission 😍
Elon will do it first.
I heard Elon is working on a cat 🐈 robot called fluffy , first cat on Mars 🚀
When are these are going to be available as companions to carry your shopping?
When I saw Atlas dancing to "Do you love me" and doing parkour I just knew BD had just changed the world. Then ChatGPT came out ,what if Atlas and Spot had access to the same training data?
I am giddy with excitement .......
Hahaha
It's only a matter of time, soon we'll have androids in every home to delegate all the 0 added value daily activities, with which we'll communicate with natural language. If we don't screw up with AGIs and wipe us out, truly revolutionary and exciting times expect us.
That door opening scene was awesome!!!
New features start at 3:12.
Seeing Spot open the door:
“Clever girl”
"Have a safe and productive day, mr. Gordon Freeman"😅
Glad to see BD has a product they can keep the company afloat on. Love the advancements.
So now it's possible to work in a factory and have some little robot dog happily beeping away, opening doors and doing its thing by reading the gauges. It must really feel like the future to work next to one of these.
Appreciated čvut Praha footages
These robots are progressing so much, a bit robotic when they gesticulate, but they almost talk like humans, specially the woman.
I'd like to gesticulate with Sophia the Robot 😍❤️
Please work on getting spot to work as a farmer, cheaper food would be great when no one has work because of boston dynamics and openai.
