If Boston Dynamics wants to become a robotics dance choreography company, I'm here for it.
They aren't already?
Me too for sure
It would make SOOO much money!
What if Spot decided to make this video ?
I can see it. Dancing Robot Anime Idols.
This is actually an incredible feat of engineering wow
You don’t say…
Yes but don't think that Choreographed dances are the challenging part of the engineering.
I know, it looks like something from the future but its real.
Engineering is the easy part...the programming is the hard part >.>
I don't think that this particular video is real. Despite how impressive spot is, i think they just CG'd this one. Not that they couldn't do something like this with spot, but just to save time.
I love how much personality Spot has. Out of all the robots Boston Dynamics has made. Spot is my favorite. If id be rich id love to own one.
That depends on what you defines as "rich" and your economic priorities. The base Spot sell for $74,500. That is without the arm. To put that in perspective, that would be the same price as a Tesla model Y (short range all equipment). That is about the middle of Tesla's price range. $49k-$147k. Cars drop in value quite quickly so this robot might actually be a better investment. Though, prioritise buying a house first
It hasn't got a personality. It's a robot. Well actually it's CGI.

Reminds me of primary school when we had to come up with dance routines and these are that one group of girls who did everything flawlessly. Just me?
For some reason my brain refuses to believe this is real robots dancing and thinks it's CGI. Like I know Boston Dynamics can easily do this, but my brain and eyes keep rebooting.
From the link: _"Thomas handed off dance steps to Jakob Welner, a robotic movement consultant based in Denmark, who animated them in Autodesk Maya"_
@@hellowell3743 and then if you KEEP reading the article they used Maya animation data as reference when programming physical robots for the final video. They used Maya to refine the choreography.

This is a whole new level of art. Whoever directed this choreography, my respects are all yours.
TRUE!
Me too XD
Or programmed it...
The staging and smoothness of motion is getting scarily close to a CG look. Super cool to see, though maybe at this level finding a way to include environmental elements to emphasize that what we're seeing is real would really enhance the 'wow' factor.
Edit; Also, 00:17 looks like a friggin Rachni. Gave me flashbacks.
I really agree with the "Make it seem more real" idea.
It's hard not to think "CGI" when you see some of the jumps etc these robots are doing.
Eh, it's mostly just lighting and positioning. Wouldn't look as CGI without it, but I do agree with how strange it seems
I doubt BD feels the need to prove their work isn't CG at this point, but I get what you're saying.
at times the motion is oddly smooth, but at other times i can see some rough movements and landings, but its hard to notice that for sure.
Rachni robots, guess the reapers really want us dead
I love this so much. First with Do you love me!!! So entertaining. Its amazing what they can do!
So very talented, artistic, and original! Boston dynamics is amazing! Keep on doing what you're doing and stay happy because you make others feel that way.
this level a synchronicity is only achieved by years of hard work, practice and good treats. Great job doggos.
Or somebody writing computer code.
They did a really good job at making the movements look natural. Doesn't fall into uncanny valley
Edit: Guys this is not CGI. The robots have been made specifically for precise and synchronized movement like this. There is also a behind the scenes article explaining exactly how this was done in the description
@Manuel Camelo not cgi for sure!

I can't imagine how much programming you guys did to make this happen
The massive programming, I think has been done already. To choreograph the dance like this will only involve using its API to position the moves accordingly.

@@Mr76Pontiac
The latter.
I'm not in the mood to correct my grammar right now.
As an engineer watching videos like this I always imagine the amount of work put into technology like this. Imagine programming every single function and motion of those robots, modeling and designing the shapes and parts, or standardizing even the smallest bolt.
The toolkits that are used to choreograph Spot are pretty refined now. They do not hand code movements. They can motion capture a human dancer and map the geometry onto Spot very efficiently. A lot of tech was developed for movie CGI to animate virtual characters, but has obviously been adapted to animate robots. The hard part was making a machine that could mimic fluid movements like that.
@@egoequus6263 what do you mean "map the geometry of a human dancer"?
their body is nothing like a human's
Ikr, my mind was going through the steps to see recursive steps. But none, the work is solid!!!
@@egoequus6263 The robots of Boston Dynamics don't use mocap to capture movement, they actually do code the individual motions. The magic comes from the way the machines are programmed to maintain balance, not from precise motion on a flat and level surface, but from dynamic stability routines that can compensate for slippery, uneven and unstable terrain (hence the "dynamics" in Boston Dynamics). So essentially, they DO program the robots to move, but the dynamic subroutines determine HOW to achieve the movement.
Same here. Very cool to watch. Can't imagine the number of hours spent to create 1m:18s of finished video.
It's also terrifying on a different level. But they're here whether we're ready for them or not. Might as well have some fun before they turn on us.
_"Magnificent, aren't they?"_

This is the most CGI non-CGI thing I've ever seen!

That's exactly my thoughts put into words 😨
@@rikodesinko Real life forms don't have smooth movement, everything programmed has because programming is exact. That's why a robot's movement makes it look like CGI. It is literally computer-generated (CG).
It's amazing that my eyes is saying "you are watching bad CG", but my brain keeps trying to remind me that what I'm watching is all done with practical effects.
@@LegDayLas First if this was CG in the sense of "digitally modelled and animated" it would be extremely good CGI, second it's not practical effects, it's just real.

The sheer amount of coding needed for all these movements must be so much.
And the level of engineering design to move in all this ways so smooth, fluid and precise is amazing.
If this isn’t cgi then the movement was probably planned in the same software that the cgi animation people use
@@AdamMclardy You can get the same animation curves in a bunch of programs or make them from scratch. On top of that, the robot probably needs to balance itself while doing this so I doubt they're just playing back an animation.
@@AdamMclardy sort of. The robot contains movement algorithms based on how humans move and maintain our own balance. Which is what animation software was based on as well so it could replicate us. The robot also has sensors for determining its orientation and balance. It simply knows how to move to keep balance and uses movement profiles that are smoothed like ours to distribute inertia from movements. Like when you rapidly fling your arm out. It overshoots just a little and has a little bit of bounce as it stabilizes in the position you want it. At the same time your opposite shoulder moves to counter balance and absorb the inertia from that move. It was actually Disney Imagineering that discovered this as the key to more realistic movements in their animatronics. The robotics field quickly followed suit and found ways to automate it in code rather than pre program it.
I think Boston dynamics might be Hyundai’s best acquisition to date.
