If a picture is worth a thousand words, a video is worth a million. Check out this short 3 minute video from robotics manufacturer, Boston Dynamics. It is especially interesting to see how the robot instantly reacts when it is pushed or when it hits a patch of ice.
As I like to say, if you want to want to “ jump the curve” don’t just think about where robotic technology is today … just imagine where it’ll be after ten more years of near exponential advances in materials, sensors, and computers. At a minium, I believe the future of All-Terrain Vehicles (ATVs) will no longer be limited to having four-wheels—I think they’ll be more robotic in nature.
