Boston Dynamics recently showcased Atlas performing a powerful backflip with remarkable precision. The robot landed cleanly on its toes and immediately launched into a second backflip. This advanced capability is powered by a whole-body learning system developed by the RAI Institute and deployed by Boston Dynamics.

The first-gen electric Atlas performs a perfect round-off backflip, thanks to a whole-body learning framework from the RAI Institute. This framework enables both high-level athleticism and a natural gait. Both Boston Dynamics and the RAI Institute are owned by Hyundai Motor Group.

Atlas can perform a backflip combo like a gymnast and also walk naturally across a stage. These very different movements are enabled by the whole-body learning framework developed by the RAI Institute and deployed by Boston Dynamics. We’re getting closer to robust, generalist humanoid behaviors that transfer zero-shot from simulation to physical performance:

🚨 BREAKING: Hyundai Worldwide to deploy tens of thousands of robots! Hyundai is scaling up its robotics strategy with a major investment in Boston Dynamics ' robotic platforms. The company plans to deploy tens of thousands of units — including the Atlas humanoid, Spot quadruped, and Stretch trailer-unloading robots—across its manufacturing and logistics operations in the coming years. Spot is already in use at Hyundai’s facilities, performing industrial inspection and predictive maintenance tasks. Atlas, Boston Dynamics’ bipedal robot, is next in line for factory deployment, aimed at addressing physically demanding and repetitive jobs. Beyond deployment, Hyundai will support Boston Dynamics’ growth by integrating the automaker’s manufacturing capabilities to boost robot production. The move is part of Hyundai’s broader ambition to lead in robotics and “physical AI”. That's so cool to see the scale-up phase with humanoids. Looking forward to seeing Atlas live in Boston this month. 🔥

Sometimes the smartest robot isn't the one with the most AI. It's the one with the best mechanics. 🤖 Inspired by the legs of an ostrich, BirdBot achieves remarkably energy-efficient walking using a passive clutch system that reduces the need for complex control. No endless calculations. No constant adjustments. Just intelligent design inspired by nature. This highlights a lesson robotics keeps relearning: Nature has already solved many of the problems engineers are trying to crack. The future of robotics may not come from more computing power. It may come from better biomechanics. What animal do you think has the most to teach robotics? 🎥 Media: Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems and The University of California ⚠️ This content is shared for informational purposes only.

Physics AI 🌊 Jensen just unveiled the NVIDIA Isaac GR00T Reference Humanoid Robot at GTC Taipei--the world’s first open-source humanoid robot reference design Built on Jetson Thor edge computing and the Isaac GR00T open platform, it features a Unitree H2 Plus body with Sharpa five-finger dexterous hands and 75 degrees of freedom. Even before Physical AI truly explodes, NVIDIA has built a complete end-to-end full-stack infrastructure: >chips (Jetson Thor + Blackwell), >synthetic data (GR00T-Dreams), >world models (Cosmos), >foundation models (GR00T N-series VLA), >high-fidelity simulation platforms (Isaac Sim + Isaac Lab + Omniverse). Dozens of humanoid robot companies ,including Agility Robotics, Aglie robotics,Boston Dynamics, Figure, 1X, NEURA Robotics, XPENG Robotics, and more are already running large-scale daily simulation training on this platform, rapidly iterating perception, reasoning, and actions in virtual environments, speeding up the jump from lab prototypes to real factory deployment. By providing an open reference design and full-stack tools, NVIDIA has dramatically lowered the barrier, letting every robotics team join the Physical AI wave with low cost and high efficiency.
