The all-electric human robot Atlas was added with a product design using the automotive industry’s supply chain.Boston Dynamics released a product model that reduced the type of dedicated parts and demonstrated operational configuration, including autonomous battery exchange and connection to factory systems.
Reduce dedicated parts and fit into the automotive industry’s supply chain
Robot manufacturer Boston Dynamics.2026yearly1the moon5Today, it unveiled the product model of the all-electric human robot Atlas.The new generation has significantly reduced the specific type of parts and designed all components to fit the supply chain of the automotive industry.
In line with the productization, Boston Dynamics announced that it will start manufacturing at its Boston headquarters immediately.The change in component configuration is a disclosed design change, and the start of manufacturing is indicated as a policy at the time of announcement.
56 maximum 50 kilogram lifting specification for freedom degree mechanisms
The Atlas mechanisms demonstrated by Boston Dynamics are equipped with 56 freedom degrees and full rotational joints.The reach distance is 2.3 meters, and the maximum weight that can be lifted is 50 kilograms.
The operating temperature range of the aircraft ranges from minus 20°C to 40°C, and safety features include human detection and protection without a fence. These are indicated as product specifications and functions, not figures that represent operating performance in the factory.
Automatic battery replacement until return to work.
According to Boston Dynamics, Atlas automatically moves to the charging station when the battery remains are reduced, where it is configured to replace the battery itself and return to work.
The control system not only supports autonomous operations, but also remote and tablet operations, with both autonomous functions including battery replacement and an interface for people to operate.
Connection to factory systems and work-sharing with aircraft groups.
According to Boston Dynamics, the operating software Orbit connects Atlas to the MES and WMS of the manufacturing running system, which can be integrated into the work process using a barcode scanner or RFID, and is connected to existing management and identification systems.
Between the aircraft, the 1 will be able to replicate the work to the entire Atlas fleet as soon as it learns new tasks.
Boston Dynamics has confirmed all annual delivery of the 2026, which will be delivered to Hyundai’s Robotics Metaplant Application Center and AI research organization Google DeepMind within months of the announcement.
