When its battery runs low, Atlas walks to a charging station on its own, replaces the battery itself, then goes back to work, Boston Dynamics explains on its product page.

The manufacturer is aiming it at materials handling in industry. According to Boston Dynamics, Atlas needs little supervision and can read barcodes.

The robot weighs 90 kg, according to the technical sheet published by Boston Dynamics.

Atlas has already left the laboratory: Boston Dynamics says it is being tested at a Hyundai site, on parts sequencing tasks.

Another claim from the manufacturer: a skill learned by a single Atlas could then be passed on to every robot in the same fleet.
