Sand Flea is an 11-lb robot with one trick up its sleeve: Normally it drives like an RC car, but when it needs to it can jump 30 feet into the air. An onboard stabilization system keeps it oriented during flight to improve the view from the video uplink and to control landings. Current developmen...
Boston Dynamics just released a new video of the Big Dog on ice and snow, and also demoing its walking gait.
RHex is a 30-lb robot designed for mobility on rough terrain. It is operated remotely via an RF link that includes a high-resolution video uplink.

HATERS GONNA HATE! This was all I could think about when watching the awesome "PETMAN" demonstration from Boston Dynamics (www.youtube.com I'm pretty sure those guys must've made their video to this music originally and just taken it off to upload to youtube.. it fits WAY too well (I adjusted the...
This video shows a demonstration of the "Cheetah" robot galloping at speeds of up to 18 miles per hour (mph), setting a new land speed record for legged robots. The previous record was 13.1 mph, set in 1989. The robot's movements are patterned after those of fast-running animals in nature. The ro...
Laser engraving the Boston Dynamics logo (of Big Dog fame) on the phone of someone who works there. Video is normal speed. The laser head speed could probably be increased, but since there was only one chance to make the engraving without ruining the phone, we ran it slow. The laser engraver/cutt...
