Oh my god they could not have made that more creepy
Did they have to make it as horrifying as a demonically possessed person in a movie?
Shit… Call this one Voldo, like from Soul Calibur. It moves exactly the same.
This needs to have a voiceover at 0:18, quietly asking “Do you have stairs in your house?”
“grandpa is protected at the bottom of the stairs”

I suspect that they deliberately played into the creepiness to make a more effective viral video
Or it’s just to show off the joint rotational abilities the thing is capable of compared to the hydraulic limitations that were part of Atlas.
Or both…
wonder why those elbows lock out instead of having 270 degrees of freedom. would be even more creepy. could have one arm in facing-forward mode and one in facing-backward mode, do the same with the feet. then googly eyes for the back of the head.
ed: a bit like fifield in prometheus
Can’t tell if it’s real or CGI…lol
Boston Dynamics’ videos seem to make us disbelieve a lot, but so far it’s all been real.
😂 I saw this earlier and thought it was CGI, it’s only when I saw some tech reviewers do videos about it that I thought it was safe to post
