All New Atlas, this is the Boston Dynamics humanoid that integrates AI

Within its system it will have various AI and machine learning integrations to update its environments and remain functional in the different areas or industries where it is used.

Hyundai, a company that acquired Boston Dynamics for $1.1 billion in 2021, is expected to use it in its automotive manufacturing lines, a sector where robots can add value by preventing human accidents.

This new version marks an evolution in the robotics company's efforts. It should be remembered that the hydraulic robot – which until now had been the face of the company – had clumsier and heavier movements.

Playter pointed out that in the company's schedule they plan to begin pilot tests in Hyundai factories at the beginning of 2025, while production would begin in a few years, but did not specify a date.

For now, the adoption rates of robotics depend on the functions and technical complexity to implement them, which is why its use has focused on areas of logistics and more controlled environments.

However, Boston Dynamics is not the only company interested in the world of robotics. Elon Musk has boasted that Tesla will launch his humanoid robot, Optimus, but so far the only thing that has been seen about it was a person disguised as the robot.

The Canadian Sanctuary AI, to cite another case, announced the delivery of a robot for this month in order to help in the assembly of cars from Mercedes Benz, Jaguar and BMW, while the startup Figure announced having raised investments from Amazon, Nvidia and Microsoft to develop generative AI focused on humanoid robots.
