Adam Savage Tests Boston Dynamics Spot's New Robot Arm!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 лют 2021
- Spot has received a massive upgrade in the form of its new robot arm! Boston Dynamics upgrades our Spot with its new arm and Adam puts its gripper to the test to see how well it can grab objects littered around the Tested studio and even open doors! We show how manual operation of the arm works, the dexterity of its movement, and get a sense of its potential as a platform for developers to create dynamic and automated tasks.
NOTE: This is not a sponsored video. Boston Dynamics has leased Spot to Adam Savage as part of their early adopter program. While Tested is chronicling some of Adam's experience with the robot, there is no obligation for Tested (or Adam) to publish videos, photos or media of any kind.

I think what we need here is a virtual or analog control like a power-glove that more directly controls the snake arm and grasper
Tag in the motions you take to complete a task + some machine learning algorithms
And maybe it can learn by watching you do it
Please don't genderize or anthropomorphize these robots. This won't pass the Turing test. It is not worthy.
@@MikeNovelli Don't anthropomorphize them. They don't like it.
@@MikeNovelli Bruh. People anthropomorphize motionless objects, don't try to stop them from humanizing something that is *meant* to look alive.
@@commenturthegreat2915 it is not meant to, nor does it actually look "alive".
Boston Dynamics: *Sends Adam their new bot*
Adam: Finally the new Roomba is here.
LOL xd
More respectable roomba!
Is he going to test the Roomba diarrhea myth with Spot?
@Magnum Chau *reversed claw machine. Claw machines usually designed to NOT grabs thinks. Not Spot tho :D
the door was out swing for the robot, so in first attempts he failed to open. Later he figured out. Awesome robot
Loved that it was due to user error \o/
*robotic dog barks* "silly human, that's an outswing door"
Getting shamed on our poor ability to assess "is it a push or pull door" at a whole new technological level....
It actually looked a bit like it did figure it out with bad instruction, nudged the door slightly to hint each time. Wonder if that's just a side effect of conditions or a programmed behavior to help the user.
@@eideticex it doesn't know how this particular door is supposed to open, and Adam said that's an in-swing,
it was probably thinking 'oh crap i broke the door! it's swinging in the wrong way!' and began to pretend innocent.
yep blows my mind that adam did not clearly see this by what the robot was doing :/
Was anyone else yelling "outswing" at their screen?
Yup
He told Spot to pull on the door and was confused why it did not work. Then Spot did it by himself and it worked like a charm. 1:0 for Spot
I can only assume adam was confused by the terminology, they should consider a push/pull phrasing instead, people would probably be more familiar with that.
Inswing can only mean one thing. There's no way spot to know if he is in a room or out of a room because that's relative terminology. I'm a little shocked that someone as experienced as Adam would get that wrong.
@@carl4043 Eh, everyone has brainfarts, most don't share them with the world though.
I LOVE how encouraging you are of his every little achievement, and am living for this enthusiasm. As a disabled person as well, I can see so much potential for the future, thinking of all the numerous things that Spot could be capable of helping me with in the future, seemingly simple things that abled people take for granted. Opening a door for my wheelchair to get through, picking up things I can't reach, maybe loading a washing machine, carrying and such like - and that all the testing your're putting into this will help refine him for future use.
I think what you're describing will be available very soon for all the disabled inshallah.

13:17 Sure spot can open a door just fine, and you indeed need some work on your ability to tell him WHICH WAY THE DOOR SWINGS :P
haha
Yea I also thought you would call that an outswing 😂
Haha i was thinking the same thing. Adam made a small goof
In other words: Why Spot slipped off the handle on the first try. He was pulling a closed door shut :P
Right lol, out, swings out
operator error, don't lie to spot.
*Spot opens a door*
Adam: "They grow up so fast" :')
Incredibly smart dude. Doesn't understand that "inswing" means the door swings toward the user. ;)
I was half expecting Spot to tear it open!
Adam savage: gets a robot dog and makes things like a robot-drawn carriage and a trash can
Michael Reeves with the same dog: B E E R P I S S
Hes becoming baxter stockman and will need to be defeated by the ninja turtles
It’s like playing a real life video game
Adam, that's an "Outward" swinging door. He's asking if the door swings toward or away from spot.
Yes I was shouting at the screen
Setting the poor guy up to fail, SMH. Lol
That’s why it finally worked when he selected “unknown”
Lol. I was imagining Spot thinking "Dumb human. If it weren't for those three laws!"
There was even a graphic on the remote showing the door swinging inward, toward you/Spot.
If you don't make a baby Brachiosaurus costume for spot to accentuate your raptor...well I won't be mad.
But I'll be disappointed
While he was talking about humanizing Spot that was my first thought. It's a baby dinosaur. Who doesn't love baby dinos?
Bring baby Dino the next convention!
Recon Boston Dinamics could build some traffic cones on wheels to keep people at a safe distance...
How could anyone be anything other than amazed and in awe of everything Boston Dynamics does?
And having read/watched 80s-00s speculative fiction/films...... Equally horrified.....................
Dr. Grant: "you said there's only two left?"
Dr. Sattler: "unless they've learned to open doors..."
*door opens*
*Spot walks casually into the room*
I think finally we have come far enough that this robot can bring me beer.
Put a tray on the back.
@@michaelpettersson4919 how would the beer get om the tray?
You think so? Asimo says "Hold my beer!"
I was thinking about exactly that. With Spot it shouldn't be a problem anymore. Welp. I need to save money.
@@spaghettigum Someone, perhaps Spot itself could place it there. My inspiration comes from a scene in Return of the Jedi where R2D2 are turned into a bartender on Jabbas barge.
'Yes, unless they figure out how to open doors' - Jurassic Park
My first thought also. 😅
Clever girl.
Well, boy in this case.
He was told swing unknown and then worked it out for himself as Adam was telling him wrong.
He needs googly eyes on that arm "head" grasper.
And dog ears.
Absolutely a necessity
I came to make this exact comment.
Absolutely!
Definitely
13:10 "if you told me back then that someday i would be able to open a door with a miniature giraffe that uses its mouth like a hand and sees through it's teeth..."
That door is an out swing not an in swing, you caused him to fail
When a robot robot figures out a door before a human!
We were all yelling at the screen.
First it was Iron Giant, then it’s proving Adam wrong. AI is clearly showing us how dominant they are ;)
Well but this also shows how you can even further improve the robot. It already automatically does multiple tries... so we know the robot recognizes failures. After maybe 2-3 fails it could check if the given input was correct and self-adjust to account for human error.
@@Telris86 That's basically what it did do in auto mode, but then the humans won't know they did it wrong. AI will advance while we go backwards
JK
Imagine how much fun that robot would be for Grant Imahara.
Annnnnnnnnnnnnd now I'm sad
I have to imagine that if there is an afterlife, grant’s would be filled with kickass robots
Adam, my 8 year thinks your ruler tattoo is really cool. He was insistent that I share this with you. 📏💪
_Adam's pets smell spot on him when he gets home, and get jealous._
Is it just me but you kinda want spot to grab the sword and start swinging
He probably shouldn't show him the videos of Boston Dynamics knocking over robots with hockey sticks while that close to a weapon rack >_>
stefan francis that thing will waltz up to Neil Peart's drumkit, and instantly play 2112, in different genres flawlessly. Right now though it could pull a def leopard without breaking a sweat as a very portable midi device/roady.
Highly dislikes comment... Down thumbs not enough to save us from ai highlander... Jezzbus teenaged pimple faced christo
I thought too
New corridor video?
It's amazing that spot knows which way the door opens and not adam😉
Watching Adam get so excited about Spot is the most wholesome thing I've seen in a while. Also one of the best things.
Watching Adam geek out with his child like joy and amazement never gets old. Spot really is damn cool.
The emotion when Spot opens the door is priceless.
I'm an IT Sys Admin for 15 years. I'm in a wheelchair somthing like this would help so much.
There are some open source robotics and rc tools that can do some of the same functions.
The arm knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't!
Haha
I was going to say this myself!
Adam trying to get the tape off the shelf brings back memories of claw games as a kid.
I'm physically messed up from a childhood injury. Something I am VERY aware of is how people take for granted all the tiny things their bodies do on 'auto pilot'. When I carried a cup of coffee, I was watching that cup like a hawk and aware of practically every muscle in my arms and legs, the concept of balance... and you find you only have so much mental power to concentrate on all these functions. I swear to you that even my hearing and vision suffered if I focused to hard on what I was doing. I watch Spott ot Atlas and I am just amazed at those engineers... amazing work.
Alternative Title: Adam Savage is proud of his robo-child.
The door opening reminded me of Jurassic Park velociraptors.
Adam's success laugh is the thing I miss most from Mythbusters.
We were all waiting for Spot to pick up one of the swords....
I like how adam uses his tattoo to measure the styrene sheets.
Watching Spot in action is one of the most amazing things I've ever seen.
Imagine how awesome and scary it will be in a year or so when you can toss a Frisbee and he can chase it down, jump in the air and snatch it.
That would actually be a really good test of the robot's hardware and software. having to track a target, balance speed between itself and the frisbee, calculate the way it needs to jump and grab the disc all in just the few seconds that the frisbee is in the air for.
Spot ”What is my purpose?”
Adam ”you pick up trash”
Spot ”Oh my god!”
Yeah, welcome to the club, pal.
Spot"...and me, with a brain the size of a planet"
R&M ❤️
I am just amazed at how Spot is developing, it's so exciting to watch him grow lol
Im glad Im not the only one seeing the potential in this little robot. It get me a little kiddy excited too.
This arm gives spot so much emotion, it takes the space where a head would be on a living organism making him feel much more approachable. i like it
Boston Dynamics may call that a robot arm but I see a long neck and a head... 😀
Alien movie,
I think they should call it "trunk".
"Lets choose inswing for the door"
The door is clearly an outward swinging door, adam!
But it was swinging into the other room!😂
@@SegginsProductions "into" yes as in.... inward swinging if you were in the room. From the robots perspective, it is outward. Make sense now?
@@gliixo think you took his joke too seriously
In = towards
Out = away
Surprised Adam made such a simple mistake
Please program Spot to bring you important tools.
This would be AMAZING.
I could seriously watch this little guy performing routine tasks for hours.
Now Adam just needs to make a costume for it to turn it into a robot dinosaur! :)
Just imagine Adam at comic con with a both him and spot in costume!
@@AmusedWalrus that would be cool but probably not safe at the moment
@@jacob8565 Yeah, do you know how many con visitors a dinosaur could eat?
Bringing our Littlefoot dreams and our iRobot nightmares to life 💜
He can't open an outswing door when you tell him it's an inswing... ;)
Adam: We are very much aware of the dangers of Spot
Michael: Robodog go pee
I think this is just great! I like Spot, and the arm makes it even better.
You know, when spot has the claw... It is hard not to see the claw as the "head"
One major question: Why no googly eyes on it? It would make it a HUNDRED times more fun!
Googly eyes and red shoes.
I agree. I get why Adam doesn't find Spot creepy but, as he acknowledged when experimenting with body augmentations for Spot, there is a place we expect a face to be and a place we expect a neck to be, and then there's where we interpret as being Spot's face in the absence of those things being where we expect them.
Sure, technically it's an ARM with a HAND; but really it's a NECK with a MOUTH, and it's a robot demadog from "Stranger Things"!
It's got jaws.
Giraffe-Bot
This is the first time I noticed that Adam has a ruler tattooed on his forearm lol
I wonder how accurate it stays over the years lol.
Then you are kinda blind :)
There has been a few videos where he talks about the decision to get a ruler tattooed on his arm. I think it has both freedom units and regular metric. And he chose that piece of skin as it is easily accessible when building stuff, provided a long enough area to be useful and it's not likely to significantly change in size during the remainder of his lifetime.
I am actually kind of envious about the decision to do a tattoo that's that useful.
Thanks i searched for this comment like 10mins
Crime Pays But Botany Doesn't has a metric ruler tattooed on his finger
I love watching the arm settle in after completing a motion. As all of Spot wobbled as it licked up that tape roll the first time it looked so giddy and it was very pleasing to watch
If they haven’t already, I hope Boston Dynamics adds software that allows people to redefine Spot’s “shape” (like when you add a trash can on to his back) so that he knows what to avoid with his arm, what heights he has to avoid, etc.
I find it interesting that the addition of the arm changes where I focus to look at Spot's "face". What I used to imagine as Spots face was the camera/instruments on the front of the body. With the arm the face has moved to the camera on the hand, especially when this hand is open. So now Spot has a snake-like face that looks a bit like Audrey II from Little Show of Horrors.
Still waiting on a nerf sword fight with spot arm!!
Modified attachment so spot can be armed with the huge nerf ball blaster!
its just a matter of time before Spot starts his own "One Day Builds" ... look out Adam !
Spot my one day build is repulacating myself
Every Spot video is more impressive than the last. I also find it interesting that I'm now associating the grip at the end of the arm as Spot's "face" instead of the camera on the main body, despite knowing the majority of the input is still through that array.
Can't help but think that with two of those arms, it would make an awesome Pierson's Puppeteer from the Larry Niven Universe :)
The hands can even look at each other!
Adam...you get to play with the coolest gadgets/toys...stay safe!
I was waiting for Adam to give Spot a treat.
The simple fact that you can tell Spot to "pick up object" or "open door" blows my mind. Its absolutely beautiful to see peak robot technology in action in an everyday natural surrounding like that. It makes me hope that someday i'll be shaking hands with a real humanoid robot as if im meeting someone new.
Since Boston Dynamics showed of Spot's new arm on their own channel, I've been waiting for Adam and the tested team to have a go with it.
Surely that door has an out swing?
Yeah, I noticed that too.
Depends on whether you're outside the house or inside
@@TSKseattle Yeah, but you already know where you are.
@@pinchopaxtonsgreatestminds9591 man machine interface failure, humans label based on room abstract, machine needs label based on current origin point
@@griffon2-6 Ok I'll give you that one. I've never heard of the human version before. I labelled it the same as the interface did.
I could watch this for hours
Why does this remind me of my first DOS system? The excitement, the pain, the possibilities, the disappointments, yet still pushing forward because I KNOW it can do it!
Goto line 46 LOL
Oh man. When he started talking about the basket. I got major WOTW handling machine vibes. Terrifying. Terrifying but spectacular.
That is a really practical design. There are all sorts of household chores Spot with that articulated arm could do. And not just for lazy asses like me, but for people with mobility issues.
With a gps tracker and long distance low latency control I could easily see this thing going to a nearby store for a few things. Gps is about all I could think of tho. Ethics get fuzzy when considering security measures for Spot being abducted
Such a fun little machine!
I remember Gary Larson's Farside comic. At the tech I went to, we had the comic of the kid pushing on a 'pull' door (ours was a pull door.. many people pushed on it, walked into it, cursed, then pulled).
Don't worry, Adam. Many of us have fallen in love with Spot too.
11:05 That 'inswing' door was an 'outswing'.....operator error
Dear Adam, today you convinced me what my first tattoo should be. Big thanks.
gotta be honest, i am not a huge ropotics fan but seeing him attempt/figure out and learn to open the door, made me smile
I can even see in the future 2 Spots working together changing a tire, opening a car door helping disabled people get in and out out vehicles. Valet service for self driving/parking cars.
Just make it big enough to ride 🤣
"Its not my fault!" - Adam quoting Han and Lando there!
Boston Dynamic's produces some insanely cool robots.
That was s amazing Robotics has come so far.I
like spot too
"does adam savage look like a construction company ?"
Adam on Sunday: "I've spent a lot of time thinking about how a roomba can fuck up your carpet with dog poop.
Adam on Monday: "We turned Spot into a shit-proof roomba."
This must be that incremental development I've been hearing about.
wow. when he opens the door. adam's face lol JOY!
That's awesome. This was my first time to see the new armature in actual use. When you design a program to pick up trash, I'd recommend having it "know" how high the arm's gripper is from the ground at the time of gripping. Then, it will have a point of reference of how high it needs to raise the object to clear the top of the trash receptacle with the minimum amount of clearance. That way it can release the trash fairly low and minimize the possibility of the trash bouncing out. Just my 2-cents. ( :
We totally live in the future now
Anyone else feeling like that moment in Jurassic Park where the raptors figure out how to open door knobs?
You could say his abilities are spot-on.
Adam's enthusiasm makes me care more about this robot than I thought I would.
A better future has been added, it is able to piss beer
Feature
Now it can pick up the beer to serve you
Finally someone who can change the channel without me having to get up for the remote 🙏
Wow that’s really cool
If it can’t PISS BEER in a cup I don’t want it.
I think that was an out-swing door. Amazing how he figured it out when “unknown” was selected. Military and civilian potential is huge!
Everyone in this world takes one look at cute little Spot and knows: this thing will definitely be used by police and the military to murder people
in swing.. or outswing relative to the robot. That was outswing :) LOVE IT!
We're all falling in love with Spot, Adam! 😄
From Michael Reeves who else?
Adam should just give Spot the controller since it knows what to do better than he does.
I love Spot's design!
This is some insanely impressive software.
10:39 this is an out swing door, count on the dummy behind the controls to mess up a machine operation, typical ; )
I had a stroke, so I can walk OR carry something, can't do both anymore
I like how you made the pail match Spot's paint job. 🙂
WOW!!! Awesome! Thanks!
(btw - outswing door)
To me, it's not an arm. It looks like he's got a head and long neck, and Spot is using his "mouth" to do the tasks!! 😁
