**the animatronics in question**
Somebody please invent doors that stay closed without electricity.
I’m confident that Boston Dynamics is entirely capable of building Freddy Fazbear, and someone there has probably considered the idea.
😂😂 Shut the door!!!
**Cue Spot Twerking.**
**Eyelid twitches.**
“How can we make this dog more likable?”
“Let’s program him to do a lil jig”

I LOVE IT!! I'LL TAKE THE ENTIRE STOCK!! LOOK AT THAT FUNNY LIL DANCE! ONLY A CERTIFIED GOOD BOY CAN DANCE LIKE THAT!
Jiggy😂🎉
Everyone is happy until it extends it's head
It is going to be doing that dance over our cold dead bodies some day…
They put a wig on a killing machine and had it do a little dance.

What drug did you take to classify a simple dog-like-robot as a killing machine ?
Everybody wants to pet the dog until its neck extends 4 feet.
I'm crying at this comment 😂
My dog can pretty much do that if there's food on a high table.
Happened with ET
You forgot that the head is attached to the body so it will probably be more like "The Thing" where the head rips off and starts to dangle with the "spine" still attached.
the comment section in a boston dynamics vid never ceases to entertain 🤣
Finally we have done it. Humans have invented: Dog
for the second time
There's a plus side to all this ya don't gotta worry 'bout pickin' up da doo doo. 🤣
Any living real dog would be horrified to see the furry giant
And if it "dies" you can just fix it brand as new. 🙃
Dog eats man.
Women inherit the earth.
Gotta say, the costumed robot looks way scarier than just the robot with dog like movements
Yeah it's the uncanny valley.
They shot right over that valley a while ago with the parkour bot being able to balance after being SHOVED. I guess it's in the name, but the way these robots move is the uncanny valley part for me more than any furry rental suit ever will.

and that's somehow a good thing? 😅
Lol underrated comment
It will more than Five Nights at Freddy's for sure.
More fake cgi shite from a fake company. Stop tryin to make robots happen please... humanity is on 100+ years of this supposed robot revolution and it will NEVER happen. Gotta keep the investors happy and the stock price optimal, so these videos they produce are THE product. I mean, I can't even get good cell service 60% of the time and its 2024 people, so please spare us with the robo dogs doing back flips on the jungle gym obstacle course.
It won't be as cute once that fur gets burned off in an explosion caused by the machines escaping
Just slap a muppet on it…said an engineer at 3 am. Amazing!

What is so dystopian and hellish about this?
@@psychomantis2485 it's dystopian because that's not a real dog. It's a marketable robotic platform, a hallmark of technology, in a time when the civilisation that created it is heading for demographic collapse

Bring it to a dog park, I wanna see how actual dogs react to it.
Dogs would.smell it and know it wasn't a dog. They rely more on their sense of smell than vision
@@ammaleslie509 Obviously you've never worn a halloween mask around a dog. They might verify stuff with their nose, but they still have a reaction to visual stimulation.
@@ammaleslie509 That's why my dog recognizes dogs on TV are dogs. Because he can smell them so well.
@@timseguine2 yes if course they use their sight, but when there is a conflict between sight and smell they trust smell more.
That's why you can hide in a box and your dog won't see you and be confused, but eventually they would smell the box and find you.
so they would know quickly that sparkles isn't a dog
it could get destroyed or get an aggressive response, every living thing that has the brain capacity to feel fear is afraid of the unknown and dogs will very quickly notice something is off
_"Sparkles wanna flamethrower?! Who wantsa flammmethrower?! Ohh sha boo boo!"_ 😁
I, for one, welcome our Jim Henson's Creature Shop masters.
For a moment a thought that you were making a reference to Farenheit 451. Where some robot dog has something like that.
@@freddyjosereginomontalvo4667 That dog had 8 legs and a needle full of procaine. It would bite the person, stun them, and then give the firemen enough time to capture the person and set them on fire. All because they were reading banned books.

Yeah. It's creepy with a costume
@@MrClearme skin walking
totally agree, but i suppose it works fine if consider this more like a proof of concept of custom skins for some events
I Disagree, it's not lifelike at all. All it is is programming. The rest of it is advertising. Writing a specific story and having their robots act it out. It's not special, just gimmicky. And look they've managed to fool you too like the rest of most people.
@@michaels.330 Keep freedom fighting against the robotics company!
What are you, demented? Kind of a weird cause you are behind. I don't think anybody doesn't know it's programming, but if a small company can make toy robots for kids that can see terrain inside the house its not too farfetched to think this company can do it at a larger scale.
Adorable.
That adorable dog would be chasing me in 2030s
Imagine giving them electro-shock darts and you are finished.
In 5 years that would hear 10 times better than us and see 10 times futher (just put many cameras with different focal lenzes as our phones) and would run 40 mph.
You can't run, you can't hide😅
Boston Dynamics is source nightmare fuel.
Seriously though, Spot's mobility is REALLY impressive! The Sparkles coat looks like a blue Sprocket (Fraggle Rock)
Read through comments just hoping to see this.
OMG IT DOES LOOK LIKE SPROCKET THOUGH LOL
Yeah, Spot's incredible IMO! The new Atlas isn't too shabby either!
This exactly.
mr sparkles 🗣️🗣️💥💥🔥🔥
Ok so armageddon will be humans getting chased down by animatronic muppets with googly eyes and cute voices. That is quite possible the most nightmare fuel thing i've imagined in a long time. Hollywood doesnt need writes, Boston dynamic writes this shit for free
Jesus christ, give it a rest, robots won't cause armageddon. You tired, brainless lossrs have been yelling this for years, and it still hasn't happened. Develop a new thought.
I mean, FNAF already exists, so writers got there before reality--per usual, frankly.

Now we need a Boston Dynamics dinosaur.
Peoples:*waiting a video about New atlas*
Boston Dynamics:I think its time for robo-dog dance
And they are god damn right.
"New Atlas" still isn't up to speed... pure advertising trying not to become obsolete... not to be eclipsed by Muskie's bot and the Japanese and Chinese better humanoid robots. ESG/DIE hiring coming home to roost.
@@jeffreyspinner5437Pretty sure they already have the new Atlas robot lifting tires n shit 😭 we need only see their video on it
@@jeffreyspinner5437
It's not like you know its characteristics just by watching a video... who knows, maybe it's much more advanced than Tesla and the Chinese.
@@strangeunivers That would be a cogent argument IF we didn't see it move already, at speed, and see every joint's degrees of freedom.
To me, it looks like a Tesla ripoff just done poorly and with much less artistry, and the prior "Boston" Dynamics robot was doing backflips. Ugly af, but it was capable, imo.
The new one looks like it's a dude able to kiss his machine male organ... didn't you notice that, I thought that was weird to show as an introduction. Look everyone I can autofellate... I was like wtf? [some /sk]
If it is more advanced than the Chinese and Tesla's bot, show us... right? Ppl can say anything, making some fake CGI stuff at least to fool the audience is the least I would expect... but they didn't even do that.
I want a whole season of “dogs reacting to sparkles”
How about we make it hidden camera and they let Sparkle loose at the dog park. I want the dog owners response too! 😂
for some reason every dog keeps going into either the fight, flight, or freeze response.. We cant possibly understand why
@@cory99998imagine you're just chilling and then a skinny version of a human with a long neck, weird collors and made out of metal shows up
These can be used to train dogs a certain way.
Sprocket! That’s why the dog looked familiar!
The music direction took a wild turn out of nowhere, can't say I expected any of this considering I also didn't expect Boston Dynamics to create a machine for furries either

@@kairi4640Five Nights at Boston Dynamics 😂😮
A lot of people with artificial limbs prefer to have them look like robotic hands instead of rubber flash, mostly realistic looking ones because of this reason. It's called the uncanny valley. The closer you get to looking real the more the flaws in it stand out and creep you out.
Although it's a very good attempt at making it look cute, The unnatural neck is the stuff of nightmares 😂
BD knows they can't make it less creepy. They're doubling down.
it's a sparkly blue muppet dog with robot legs. anybody with functioning eyes would be able to tell its not a real ass animal
One of the reasons I love Boston Dynamics is how they are able to both show off their robots and their capabilities seriously and to show them off via dressing them up in costumes and making them dance and kiss each other. Wonderful company for both types of people.
Some people even like both aspects.
this coudl be a creat way to make practical effects for fantasy creatures in films and shows the norm again, by just dressing up boston dynamic robots lol
@@charityquill4965 Eh, I wouldn't go that far. You can still obviously tell they're robots from how they move, and buying robots just to use them as props would get very expensive very quickly. CGI is better for fantasy creatures because it's less expensive and more believable.

I’m thinking about those workers resumes:
-programming incl. C++, Java, Python, etc.
-full cycle mechatronics implementation incl. machine vision, voice commands, adaptive learning
-robot dog costume design incl. fitment, sparkly stuff, and untangling faux hair from articulation points.
It's like most of the TELESHOP products.
Three years later you have to go through the clutter, and throw out so many unused items.
Micheal reeves gonna have a field day with this one
I think there are many, many people (especially children) who would prefer such a dog to a real one...😢
Before everyone says "No!"... Think carefully...
The Robo-Dog never gets sick, he never dies, he doesn't make a mess, he doesn't have to go outside, he's funny and can dance, you save on vet costs, he's easy to get along with, never bites and is always in a good mood...
Never thought I’d get the chance to see Spot’s fursona. 😵💫
exactly what i was thinking
Came here to make a furry joke. U beat me to it lol

This ain't the Chuck E. Cheese Road Show, Boston! That polyester costume makes the Spot we all know resemble a quadruple-amputee animatronic cartoon dog with prosthetic limbs. Spot's *already* plenty cute on his own.
That actually sounds badass af
Amen
they're evolving
You've finally reached a stage in development where you can give it an attractive design on the outside. Congratulations
The fact that it looks perfectly like a Muppet dog.
Someone at Henson labs 100% worked on this
@@siraaron4462 yeah! I used to like Sesame Street and I was a fan of that show.
If Boston Dynamics really wanted to change the world, it could create a robotic guide dog for the blind. A little bit more of a realistic "disguise" would go a long way in making it more acceptable to the public.
What's truly impressive about a dog is that they can be trained to navigate obstacles that we are still working on with robots.
Obviously it will be real looking dog robot 40 years later
A robot dog would be way more expensive than a guide dog and we do not have the technology for a robotic guide dog to work reliably enough yet
Affordability and accessibility are a huge gap to bridge.
A lot of tech companies often do projects like this that might seem frivolous or unnecessary to the average person, but this industry and it's evolution is often like a life-long beta testing process.
If they can secure continuous funding (yes even accounting for how much they get now it can still be a logistics issue in regards to potential longevity, quality assurance, liabilities, and cooperation with other orgs and the govt i.e. contracts and funding) for long enough, and there is steady interest/demand, subsidizing the costs to provide much more serious and life-changing aids for people in need IS possible. We are finally starting to see that with solar panels/solar technology.
But it's often a long long road and certain socio-economic circumstances can heavily delay or derail such things. Human Geography taught me so much in regards to that and while I suck at explaining it in my own words, I understand it in practice.
I’ve been saying for a while that if the Spot robot were more accessible cost-wise it would be a fantastic mobility device for a lot of disabled people. I use a wheelchair and have a service dog, but she is my 3rd service dog in 15 years. It takes 2 years to train a puppy and if you are lucky the dog has 6-8 years of life it can work, but once it hits 8 years old you need to find another successor to start training so it can retire.
A Spot robot could help a disabled person with counter balance tasks, momentum pull, pulling a wheelchair, opening doors for a disabled person (a lot of businesses still don’t have electronic door buttons), bringing medications at scheduled times, along with a bunch of daily living type activities such as loading the dishwasher.
They would also be a nice option for disabled people who would benefit from a dog but are allergic or don’t have the mobility to take care of a live dog/clean up it’s poop/etc.
Everyone talking about the robot apocalypse as if there's not a simple preventative measure: Just be kind to your machines!
And seeing how we kinda personify our roombas and things like these doggies, I like our chances.
I’m not worried about machines gaining sentience, I’m afraid of what’s the company’s that own them will do with them now.
What and company. Darn auto correct lol.
These robotic dogs have more rhythm than the average human!
Ah sweet, children's hospital camouflage Spot just dropped
"Everyone wants to pet the robot dog... until the neck extends four feet." 😂
I think you're right though this is applicable, but yet could absolutely do a western(ish) dragon instead which would be an anatomically closer fit. 🤔

boston dynamics protogen will be real on january 1st 2014 (2085)
(this does have me thinking that if bd (unfortunate abbreviation when the subject is furry stuff) were to "open-source" their future atlas/atlas successor models then we *could* get protogens? they'd be fully mechanical, but they'd be practically indistinguishable from biological functions like silicone as skin or some groundbreaking artificial fur that doesn't feel weird/clearly fake at all as fur, even though i doubt things like breathing would be functional and would instead be for extra "lifelike" behavior. unsure of how the visor would work, maybe they'd just be electric powered and not have a functional mouth, but that'd be boring because i find the fake-mouth-real-mouth thing as well as robots eating food and actually getting energy quite cool)
