Inside the Lab: How does Atlas work?

Inside the lab: How does Atlas work? - Watch this video from Boston Dynamics' from their YouTube Channel. They say, " Go behind the scenes at Boston Dynamics with the Atlas Team as we work to train multiple Atlas robots to maneuver their way through our most complex parkour course yet. The team pushes Atlas to its limits to discover the next generation of mobility, perception, and athletic intelligence." 

Be sure to watch starting at about the 2:00 time stamp to see how incredibly complex the engineering and programing is! WOW! 

What a wonderful place to work!

Unbelievable!
