Robot Dog Spot: What Futuristic Things Can it ACTUALLY Do? (Boston Dynamics)

This video takes a look at what Boston Dynamics robot dog, Spot, can do. From working in mines, on construction sites, farms, and even on SpaceX's Starship launch pad. Spot even has a dog house at the Starship launch site.
We even take a look at what a pack of Spot robotic dogs can do, and how it is being taught to herd sheep.
Other topics covered in this video include:
• How Spot the robot dog can work autonomously, and even live on its own out on a platform in the ocean, or deep underground
• How it can be upgraded to the Enterprise version, which allows it to self charge itself
• Why Elon Musk has bought 2 of them
• How the robot dog could be used on Mars to help with the colony build
• Its features, available add ons (such as the robotic arm), upgrades, and its cost

Top speed of 3mph but has been used to herd sheep. I assume not on its own, as the flock would be more than capable of outrunning it and dispersing.

Super interesting Robots Spot,Atlas . Superb 😯

[@der_saftmon]

I cant wait to get a Spot or Atlas in 50 years or maybe even less, when they wont be that pricey(and Atlas able to buy)

[@fullflowstagecombustioncyc4471]

Oh boy, Great Vid, a quick rundown on Spot. wait.. nani??? Michael Reeves where???

When will they be able to stare at us with cold artificial hate?

[@twillightrose13]

Why not cold living hate? Just get a cat. 😹

[@NotUnymous]

As soon as he learns behavior from the online comment sections

[@flamaest]

You lost me at "deep underground inspections" and "90 minute run time", all for the low low price of 100k. Those two capabilities can't go together.

The "Pick" portion at the end with the yellow robotic arm is just a FANUC robot using PalletTool 😂

yea what happed to venture city

[@ismailnyeyusof3520]

How about comparison video between this product and the practically identical copy from a China competitor? The Chinese competitor is a lot cheaper but it’s not really known if it’s just as capable.

[@ErwaAngler]

So what's the name of the one you mean?

[@QAYWSXEDCCXYDSAEWQ]

Such a pity the US sold this company to Japan

What stops someone from hacking into it? I can see this as a security issue.

[@jryde421]

While hacking it is possible...the sorce code isn't open so you'd have to hack to find that too and even then...this is Boston dynamics even if they didn't get that AI anti-virus darpa was developing back in 2013 I'm sure the cyber security is on point...I mean if not I'm sure the ceo knows the seriousness of a hack and has measures in place.

[@twillightrose13]

@@jryde421 with all of the hacking going on lately I don't trust anything connected to the internet to not be hacked. It's amazing how people put everything online and expect it to be safe. Heck the entire East Coast went without gas because of a hack and people in Florida would have been killed had they have not found the hack at the water treatment plant. You would think those two things would have had top of the line security. But what do I know LOL I can hardly use a smartphone.

[@ziwenzhuang]

Er, so? It seems everything in the video can be achieved with a wheeled robot?

[@Koinu12]

Wheels can get stuck on rough terrain or just dirt. It may even fall over. These specific issues are fixed by giving the bot legs.

i'll be waiting for china to copy it and sell it cheap

[@lawanddalatieh]

There are already cheap copies, for example a Chinese company called unitree made one that costs 10k

[@pratwurschtgulasch6662]

@@lawanddalatieh oh good. and if the US government ever wants to step in and stop china from stealing all our shit, i'll be waiting for that day

[@pianoten]

[@themusiclab2621]

Insanely expensive,the technology is not that new
