Boston Dynamics Atlas (Electric)

波士顿动力 Atlas（电动版）Essential

Boston Dynamics' fully electric humanoid robot, introduced in 2024 for factory work.

Electric Atlas is the humanoid robot Boston Dynamics (now part of Hyundai Motor Group) unveiled in April 2024, replacing the retired hydraulic Atlas. It switched to electric motors, giving its joints a wide, sometimes full-circle range of rotation, so its movements no longer need to mimic human posture. At CES in January 2026, Boston Dynamics unveiled the production version: 56 degrees of freedom, an arm span of about 2.3 meters, the ability to lift 50 kg, roughly 4 hours of battery life with the ability to walk itself back to a charging station to swap batteries, and support for autonomous, teleoperated, and tablet-controlled modes. The company says its entire 2026 deployment is going to Hyundai's car factories and to Google DeepMind, with whom it is jointly training foundation models.
