Video: 5-foot humanoid robot runs, jumps over tree trunk
A video shows a 4.9-foot-tall humanoid robot running in an open grassy ground and jumping over a tree trunk that obstructs its path. Created by American company Boston Dynamics, the 75-kilogram robot named Atlas, has two legs and a total of 28 joints. Atlas' control system coordinates motions of the arms, torso and legs to achieve whole-body mobile manipulation.
