This is only a little disturbing, but our new robot overlords can sure dance!

Saw this this morning, and it is freaking scary but oh so very cool!

At times it kinda looks like there is some CGI involved, but I went and looked at some other videos and I now have zero doubts that it is 100% real.

Boston Dynamics is killing it, and probably us soon...

They need to recreate the pulp fiction dance scene.

And this is the stuff that they are making public. Imagine what's behind closed doors.

Needs to be "stuck in the middle with you" song. And then have robots dancing around a human.

Both me and my 2.5 year old thought it was bad ass.

I'm pretty excited to see what people do with SPOT now that its almost a commercial product.
Our shipping/ assembly warehouse could certainly use a gofer on basic tasks.

Tons of safety and security jobs will be that much safer when you can send SPOT out to investigate.

It is already available, not only for commercial customers, but for everyone in the general public. I was surprised at the price tag being so affordable too (I mean in that I would have expected this to be a lot more), and is available on the BD website for $75k USD.
