After 11 years, Boston Dynamics has said goodbye to its humanoid robot Atlas — but only the hydraulic version. In a video posted on YouTube, the robotics company says it’s time for Atlas to “kick back and relax” in retirement, letting the new all-electric Atlas take the reins.
The new Atlas comes with a big design change. Not only is it all-electric but it’s also outfitted with a ring light on its rounded head, along with rotating body parts that allow for improved agility and dexterity. Hopefully, this new bot will have similarly impressive dance moves to its predecessor.
Here’s a recap of Atlas’ entire history at Boston Dynamics.
