Atlas robot wows with 360-degree spinning jump on wheels

Boston Dynamics, Hyundai Motor Group's robotics affiliate, released a video on Nov. 9 showing its humanoid robot Atlas performing a 360-degree spinning jump in midair while fitted with wheels instead of feet, along with other high-difficulty moves like moving sideways quickly and balancing on one wheel. The Korea Times reports the maneuver resembles a figure skater's landing, and Yonhap notes the robot moves freely like a figure skating athlete. Korean outlets including Chosun Ilbo, Kyunghyang Shinmun, and Maeil Business Newspaper covered the feat, with Kyunghyang describing the movements as reminiscent of a 1980s roller-skating rink. The video was posted on Boston Dynamics' official YouTube channel, and the robot is described as moving smoothly in an industrial warehouse setting.
