Boston Dynamics: Parkour Atlas
October 11th, 2018Via: Boston Dynamics:
Atlas does parkour. The control software uses the whole body including legs, arms and torso, to marshal the energy and strength for jumping over the log and leaping up the steps without breaking its pace. (Step height 40 cm.) Atlas uses computer vision to locate itself with respect to visible markers on the approach to hit the terrain accurately.
It looks like that right foot hit the top step about an inch from dead center. With the right covering or costume that thing would like like a person (running from the hit).
