8bitfuture:Not sure if this looks creepy or funny. This is Cassie, a bipedal robot from Agility Robotics, and it possibly walks better than I do.In addition to search-and-rescue and disaster relief, Agility Robotics has one particular environment and situation in mind: They want Cassie to be scampering up your steps to deliver packages to your front door.Cassie is just 3 months old in this video, which, if you consider the typical pace for teaching a bipedal robot you designed from the ground up from scratch to walk without constantly falling over, is quite frankly astonishing. As you can see in the video, they’re not being shy with what they ask Cassie to do: It’s on dirt, it’s on grass, it’s balancing on a wobbly dock surrounded by an alarming amount of water, it’s even standing outside in the rain, which is an important feature for any robot that spends much time in Oregon.Read more about Cassie here. -- source link
