These robots have evolved from research projects to practical solutions used in industries like construction, logistics, and beyond. As we continue to explore the limitless potential of robotics, it’s inspiring to see how Boston Dynamics' innovations are shaping the future. #Robotics #Automation #Innovation #BostonDynamics #FutureTech #EngineeringExcellence #AI #TechEvolution #BostonDynamicsJourney

🤖A Swarm of One Thousand Robots🤖 Harvard roboticists developed Kilobots, building 1000 of them for swarm research. Each Kilobot is inexpensive and communicates via infrared, enabling collective behaviour. Swarm robotics relies on simple rules for tasks like edge-following and gradient formation. Localization is key but challenging; robots rely on initial group coordination. With resilience built in, future goals include trillion-robot swarms forming indestructible structures.

🤖 Humanoid robots rely on dozens of magnetic actuators for lifelike motion. From shoulder rotations to precise hand movements, advanced magnets are indispensable! Think of AI and computing as the "brain" and actuators and magnets as the "body." Over time, humanoids will require more sophisticated, powerful, and miniaturized actuators to enable greater degrees of freedom. The more complex the task, the more actuators required. The future of robotics is in these advanced components and the strength of the underlying supply chain! #Robotics #RareEarths #TeamMP 🦾🔧
