Presumably taking a little breather from synchronized dancing, this a video of a Boston Dynamics Atlas humanoid robot completing tasks fully autonomously. That means absolutely no human intervention. Which is a relief, because I was worried robots might not be able to complete their tasks after exterminating us all. Some

Because what good is spending thousands of dollars on a robotic dog if it’s not going to pay for itself (all my dogs cost nothing and feel like they should deservedly earn nothing), this is a video of one that’s had a leaf blower attached to help with some yard

This is a hype reel for Limx Dynamics’ TRON 1 bipedal robot. The bot is multi-modal thanks to its three sets of interchangeable feet: flat feet, nubbins, and wheels. The wheeling up the stairs then jumping from the top was admittedly impressive. But can it use one foot and one

Because nature is totally nuts, this is a video of a robotic spy fish infiltrating a millions-strong shoal of herring while they look for a place to lay and fertilize their eggs. The real fish constantly release flatulence from their swim bladders that sounds like clicking underwater, a behavior our

Because scientists are an unending source of wild and crazy ideas, researchers at Cornell University and the University of Florence have developed a starfish shaped robot that’s controlled by the electrical signals generated by its onboard king oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus eryngii). I’m not going to lie, I did mistake those

Because we’ll have failed as a species as far as 8-year old me is concerned if we don’t have Rosey the Robot maids by the end of my lifetime, Unitree Robotics has released a new video of the mass production model of its G1 humanoid robot, which should be available

Because why not risk getting massaged to death, the Aescape is an AI powered massage table with two industrial robotic arms to work out all your knots. It has a touchscreen control panel so you can select specific areas to work on, and adjust the pressure and time allotted to

This is a video highlighting the evolution of Boston Dynamics’ ATLAS humanoid robot over the past 40 years, including from before Boston Dynamics even existed and early legged robotic locomotion was being studied at MIT’s Leg Lab. It was actually pretty interesting to see the walking technology develop. Sometimes by
