How SpaceX used a Robot Dog to inspect Starship after an engine test

- SpaceX has now even involved man's best friend as part of their engine testing. Just to be clear, they didn't use an actual dog. Instead, they used a robot dog called Spot that is being developed by Boston Dynamics.
SpaceX has at least two of these dogs at their launch at Star Base in Boca Chica, Texas. The Spot was used for an onsite inspection after a static fire test of Starship SN20 on 19th October. During the pre-burner test, the giant Raptor Vacuum appeared to ignite several pieces of pad hardware. So, engineers at SpaceX used Spot to physically walk to the scorching test pad and check for damage and secondary fires.
Robot Dogs like Spot will be used in the future to reach places that are too hazardous for humans. Think of things like radioactive zones or very hot areas. In fact, Spot's many use cases are to be used as a search and rescue dog after an earthquake or natural disaster.
Don’t forget it’s invaluable ability to piss beer, too.
Someone loved spot so much that he made it piss beer, in a cup, automatically
Oh hey, my uni is using one of these on our main campus for ai research. People even have a chance of seeing the good robot doggo around campus.
Michael reeves: i want that to piss beer! AND I WILL MAKE IT PISS BEER...
Robot probes with caterpillar tracks AND ARMS have been commonplace for tasks like this for decades.
Boston dynamics is so cool they sell spot for everyone i hope someday I’ll buy it
Don't count on it.
They're like 100,000 dollars
@@oscarjrvelasquez8520 that’s a good price
anyone can buy spot, if you can cough up the money.
@@oscarjrvelasquez8520 it surely isn't meant for the wider public
Michael Reeves: Piss beer,take it or leave it
I really knew a real dog that pissed beer. I wouldn't of drank it though.
Meanwhile, Micheal Reeves used the same robot dog to make it piss on Boston Dynamics's HQ
When Chernobyl kicked off they tried to use emergency robots to clear the worst bits but the radiation fried their circuits.
Don't forget Michael Reeves has made his dog piss beer
Boston dynamics will one day make that one black mirror episode become a reality
These robots are used to inspect hydroelectric plants in Germany.
Came here to mention this, Tom Scott also made a video about it
Did the dog they used piss beer?
It's weird how this video focuses so much in Space X when Boston Dynamics should be the ones with most attention for their creation.
I'm gonna build a laser electromagnetic gun that will definitely help me fight these things.
These are very neat
I saw a video a while back that they put a big ass gun on one of these, it has 30x zoom and thermal camera for targeting in the dark with a range of 1.2km.
Tldr: these robots will also be used in future wars.
And then it fell on the first shot... These robots aren't made to resist the recoil
@@hdnfbp Won't be hard to mod it a little to become a sniper.
Shape it like a spider instead, when it goes to firing mode back legs can move back while central and frontal legs spread out. So when a sniper fires it stands firm.
Bam, now you have a sniper that is unkillable and can stay in the same position for weeks without needing to move.
@@abyssstrider2547 Mate, you can destroy these things kicking them, and with this mod it will move a fraction of the speed
@@hdnfbp I was thinking of a completely new model though. The one that would have camo and guerrilla suit over it. Practically unnoticable and even if it gets destroyed the operator won't die.
And yes, quite litteraly shaped like a spider, even with ability to strafe.
I love the spot robots
This dog is used for SAR missions. But not here. *here*, it's used to touch hot rockets. Fun!
Pretty rad
"Spot," wow...such a techy name!
SpaceX is in Brownsville, TX. Boca Chica Beach is only the name of the beach it's near.
Let’s all be honest, the only reason these were made were for their inevitable weaponization
They can be used with that but you would have to code it your self
Spot! Wow!
Am I the only one who’s waiting on it to start saying danger will Robison then stand up on two legs with bright red eyes
Everytime I see Boston dynamics spot I think of Michael revees and his pissing dog
That’s a hot dog
Meanwhile Michael reeves made this thing piss beer
We were on a tour at starbase and they told us the robots were at one of the buildings
Any reason a regular drone wouldn't do the job?
That dog cost more than his house lmao
How is no one talking about how Michael Reeves used this boston robot dog to make a pee machine.
The robot dog in mars.
That thing looks like the war of worlds thingy
Lmao yeah
And it is. Coming soon to a neighborhood near here.
Why do we not just use spot to check out Chernobyl
You gotta watch the beer pissing one.
Wheres the tortured shotgun weilding robot?
How much heat can they withstand? (In Fahrenheit please)
I like the way we all just look at is as doge
Soooo this is 2021 version of Laika i presume?
And then they made it pee bear.
“very hot areas”
🤨
I'll have to admit the robot dog is cool but that makes me wonder. Why didn't they just made a humanlike robot instead?
Bipedal balance is INSANELY DIFFICULT to automate, so they just use 4 legs because they are more efficient and have more utility, spot robots are fairly old news now though, and Boston dynamics have actually made humanlike robots
The Robots are used to piss beer in a special part of California.
Boston dynamics and tesla need to partner up
I doubt it could check a radioactive place
Less rescue more search
So....
It was a spot check?
dogs are living beings...this is simply a robot...not a "robot dog"
Or also are used in new Star Wars series :)
They should send spot to Chernobyl
Can i use it to conquer her heart ?
Michael Reeves built the dog better it can pee beer now
His real name is Zeus
Why need a robot dog for this and not a regular one with wheels? I see no point.. nur probably just for the show
Hey that date is my birthday 🎂
For me it buffered at they will use a dog for engine testing so that disturbing
Redmi also made one
Robot can't walk through elephant foot tho.
Why not?
It says in can stand anything soo how bout send it to Chernobyl to help the scientists.
Neat
isnt it better to use drones?
the drone can't be stable over heat because hot air goes up
@@caldeira_a humm thx that makes sense thooo still that the robot dog just cant be the most efficient i guess that is for the degin
These were made to control people. Coming soon.
@@Derain_ they are useful for exploring caves because they don’t need to be controlled so they could be good for discovering Mars better and it can get out of places like caves unlike rovers and a drone uses to much power
TOO EASY
It is forbidden to keep dogs as pets
Black mirror
This is artificial animal
abuse and i won't stand for it!!!
