A week ago, Boston Dynamics showed as her Atlas humanoid robot performs various new stunts. Of course, not all of them were made by the robot the first time, and now the company has shown unsuccessful doubles.
In this video, it’s not even Atlas’ unsuccessful attempts to do this or that trick that are interesting, but how the robot behaves at the moment of loss of control.
It can be seen that his movements, aimed at trying to restore a stable position of the body, even here are very similar to human ones. Of course, not always, but still there are many such moments.
