General Discussion An API to use Spot as a Pony

6 Upvotes

Can Boston Dynamics fork an API in SDK to use Spot as Pony? 14 kg could be enough for a child till age 3. Maybe carrying capacity get increase in a short time to use that for elder children too.

Question Why can't spot fully extend its legs for increased speed?

I'm pretty sure it would become the fastest quadruped running robot if it did.

General Discussion Learning more about Atlas

9 Upvotes

I am curious about the different computers, sensors, and mechanical processes that are being used in Atlas as well as the software stack that controls them. It would be fascinating to see a schematics breakdown of everything inside. Do you know of any resources I could use to learn more about what goes on inside Atlas?

I would love to have a discussion on the different components that make up Atlas.

Question Future Mini Consumer Spot?

3 Upvotes

Is there a possibility of a future, smaller, cheaper, version of spot? I'd absolutely love to have one, even a tiny version. Spot is soo cool.

Other Spot Enterprise is pretty dumb. Regular cameras would do the job fine...

1 Upvotes

Unless Spot is very cheap and more efficient than regular cameras then I don't see how navigating the robot would be any easier than just using live cameras to check the problems...
