3. WHAT IS HUMANOID??
•A robot with its body shape build
to resemble the human body.
•Designed for interacting with
human tools and environments.

4. WHY HUMANOIDS…??
• To assist sick and elderly
• Dangerous jobs
• Distant space exploration
missions

6. INTRODUCTION-ATLAS
• Atlas-the first hope to mitigate major
catastrophes such as,
“FUKUSHIMA NUCLEAR DISASTER”.
• Built by “Boston Dynamics”
for the DARPA Robotics
Challenge.
• Based on PETMAN humanoid.

7. ATLAS-ITS ABILITIES…
Semi autonomous bipedal mobility
Strong enough to climb using hands and
feet through congested spaces
Walks on untethered in snow,
woods
Balancing on one feet
Free to lift and carry
Run on hot conditions

8. SPECIFICATIONS…
 187POUNDS (85KGS)
 6’2” tall
 On-board real time control
computer
 On-board hydraulic pump
and thermal management
 Tethered for network and
480V ,3-Ø power at 15 kw
 28 hydraulically actuated
joints
 Carnegie Robotics sensor
head with LIDAR and Stereo
sensors

9. DESIGN
Use 3dprinted legs
Actuators and
hydraulic lines are
embedded in
structure
Developed custom
servo valves
significantly smaller
and lighter
LIDAR, Stereo
cameras and new
meta materials

10. BALACING & RECOGNITION
• LIDAR and Stereo
sensors in its head helps
to analyze and
manipulate objects and
navigate terrain without
bumping into things to
avoid obstacles, assess
the terrain

11. BALANCING & RECOGNITION
• Mechanism that balances Atlas is the
Gyrosensors and Accelerometer
• Gyrosensors sense angular velocity
Realization of gyrosensors
Sending signal to the
microprocessor
Manipulate the position
straight using motors

13. PROS…
Search and Rescue missions
Replace human rescue crew in
dangerous situations
Able to lift heavy debris due to increased strength
Can breach through walls
Cons…
Still connected to power
source
If Atlas receives a brain
stimulation autonomous thinking,
he would be powerful may leads
to catastrophe

14. This is the first time we
have seen this version of
Atlas, a mostly able bodied
adult human in action and
its leaps and bounds above
the previous gen stuff
which is in developing
stage
