When it comes to latest artificial intelligence robots Atlas is a popular name. built by Boston Dynamics and unveiled few years ago, Atlas has become a commercialized robot with incredible force to execute most tasks that other humanoid robots find it difficult to do.

As a matter of fact, Atlas had been rated to be among the most advanced artificial intelligence Robots in the world.

The previous details of Atlas released earlier have said a lot about the stable and energetic robot. From being a running and jumping robot to a search and find robot, accident rescue robot, and lots more.

Among the artificial intelligence robots trending recently Atlas has been mapped out as one of the heavy and useful AI robots that can be used for varieties of jobs. N Highly configurable for a particular job.

Its test and documentation showed an AI robot that can execute physical motion tasks with high-level of stability. Atlas could give hope to lots of industries who needs robots with such strength for a particular job. Besides, sports industries could make use of its high exercising skills to train athletes.

Atlas physical appearance does not carry an artificial human face rather it operates as a headless humanoid robot with heavy parts on its chest and abdomen section including its long-lasting rechargeable batteries.

Boston Dynamic unveiled the operations of this special robots earlier during its development stage and lastly its completion stage. Almost every details about Atlas have been given by its maker ‘Boston Dynamics’ and this current one is not an exception to it.

Though it does not have big height like some giant robots do, its height is just enough to carry out the expected tasks.

Based on records, Atlas can detect and jump over obstacles on its parts while walking or running, Atlas can make a 360 degrees back flip or front flip either directly from the ground surface or from a height to a ground surface, its records showed many other operations that Atlas could do.

If well programmed, the stability and strength of the robot could be converted to more useful jobs in applicable industries.

Though the building stage was not easy for the developers, their continued experimentation and repeated tests really opened way to a successful AI robot that matched the intents of the developers.

The success of Atlas could be the motivating factor to Boston Dynamics. The industry has built other robots shortly after the unveiling of Atlas.

Just few weeks ago, Boston Dynamics released yet another video showing the working strength and abilities of Atlas robot which started from its early stage of development and was perfected through series of experiments and repetitions of vital corrections to achieve the final result of a stable and highly physical motion robot.

Though other robots may be existing with similar strength, Atlas distinguished itself by having combination of different physical motions abilities which can be converted to useful works to humans such as in industrial applications, delivery and supply, sports, and lots more.

To date, this is highest level of dexterity for a #robot
