Engineers are advancing humanoid robot capabilities across several fronts. DeepRobotics in China is training robots to run on uneven outdoor terrain, while IHMC in Florida has demonstrated their new Alex robot taking its first untethered outdoor steps for disaster response. Boston Dynamics has also taught its Atlas robot complex movements, like a soccer kick, by utilizing simulation before real-world hardware training. AI
IMPACT Demonstrates progress in robot locomotion and task learning, potentially accelerating applications in disaster response and complex manipulation.
