- Apptronik unveiled the new Apollo humanoid robot. Apollo is a collaborative, bipedal robot, roughly human-sized. It is designed initially for logistics and warehousing applications, carrying boxes, crates, and totes. This is the latest generation of legged robotic solution from Apptronik.
Editors note: the sections of the video showing the use cases is simulated, while the other sections are video of the actual robot.
Be cool to the new guy. We will be working for him one day.
Don't stare. I think the new guy has a disability.
o hell na
Unless we block digital currency
Imagine you're new at the warehouse and robot starts rushing at you saying, 'intruder! Eliminate all intruders!'
super deceptive that the actual use cases are simulated but it isn't clear (on the website, or the appearance on the news I saw); I appreciate the robot report having a note in the description here though. I was super suspicious that those were simulated, as I have never seen a humanoid robot move that fluidly (not even atlas - not one robot I've ever seen); the non use case locomotion is definitely what I've seen and 100% the furthest that they have gotten.
For those into this space, there are TONSSSS of breakthroughs still to be made, and human like locomotion and balance are still major hurdles, as well as general dexterity, in humanoid robots.
It hobbles in video, but walks smoothly in CGI video!
Why did they insert the CGI ?
My thoughts exactly 😂
For everyone wondering why it walks slow, or seems to have a weird walking form, its because if something goes wrong, we can outrun it and out maneuver it. Everyone fears the "robot takeover" so this company made something that looks friendly and has low ability to take over the world.
Ok i know the joke
The truth is it cant balance when walking
It's gonna be like that movie, " I, Robot."
It seems no one has mastered dynamic equilibrium for walking except Boston Dynamics, that's why so many 2-legged robots seem ill-adapted to real-world situations. But static equilibrium is great if you want to have a statue standing somewhere.
Agility robotics pretty good as well
So Apollo is ready to work at IKEA...
IKEA should sell them so he can assemble them, that would be cool.
What I'm hoping for is in a few years when I can't take care of myself anymore they have a caregiver robot that looks like Bo Derek did 40 years ago.
With my recently injured leg not fully recovered yet, the way that I'm walking with my legs partly bent, sort of 'mincing,' looks a lot like this robot.
Any idea when theyre going to be released for purchase?
they're aiming for the end of 2024.
They were created to subjugate Humans
I wonder why it can't walk normally and has to hobble around like that?
Imagine how easy it is to topple. SMH.
Becus it lacks engineers who are much smarter😂😉
Because if something goes wrong, us humans can outrun it.
It has to shift its weight.
@@NewGuyMix nice excuse when u fail to impress humans😂👍
Is the Apollo Autonomous ?
You can tell the shots form 0:44 to 1:21 is CG animated, not a real robot. The foot and leg movements are more smooth in them, but the foot placement on the ground almost hovers a bit, unrealistically. The shots you see before and after, shows it waking is more clunky, and more common to see among life size humanoid robots.
Indeed. If you read the description, we noted that the use case video is all simulation.
You know, given the level of control we've seen other robots doing like playing ping pong or other high speed motions... Why is it all the walking robots move around like 100-year-old arthritics? I find it hard to believe we cannot make a robot that can move much more smoothly and faster than these things. Boston Dynamics seems to be getting there. And also screw working in a warehouse, leave that for people (otherwise who's going to have money to buy/rent/lease the things?), I want a robot in my house that can do the dishes and vacuum and other household chores.
Note that the Boston Dynamics Atlas robot is hydraulically actuated, where all of the commercially available humanoid robots (e.g. Apollo, Digit) and the others in development are all electrically actuated. Atlas and hydraulic actuation will never see the light of day outside of the lab, but I Digit is the best example of what's possible for this class of robotics.
Some robots such as RoMeLa's Artemis can walk upright, but it's less stable and less energy efficient so it does the funny crouch walk too.
I wonder if they can use magnetic joints.
We need a more educated population. Those people will become technicians and engineers and more. The world will become a better place when everyone is well educated
Check out high torque robotics channel, they have a desktop sized robot with alot more natural gait.
Payload capacity?
It really needs one more articulation in the tip of it's feet: It walks like if it was wearing ski boots. Don't underestimate toes.
So these are not real videos ? CGI right ? cause i see some weird movements
The use case section is simulation, the other video segments are the actual robot (you can tell by the detail in the cabling and the joints)
The clips with soft goods over the joints are animations, everything else is real hardware
Lol
I though so, it should be marked as CGI kinda not cool mixing it into video i feel @@therobotreport7420
@@therobotreport7420 IMO the simulated sections-which are noticeable-should have been clearly labeled, in consideration of viewers. I would have done that.
If I was that slow at work I'd be sacked. 😂
Meet The New Boss...Same As The Old Boss...
If that thing can stack boxes on a pallet and seal it and automate the whole fork lift truck into the truckload, and automatically drive the whole load to another place and unload it automatically then we are all unemployed lol..
But this is perhaps something we have to embrace as people already are whining about the lack of jobs.
Literally the robots from Mitchells vs the Machines
I just heard the interview from the podcast ,and i think basically what they want to develop is the "walking robotic arm "~
The idea is understandable from engineering point of view，but it maybe mean ,some countries need to reach certain level of "autonomous” first (no matter food delivery or so on),otherwise the environments are still too complicated for current robots.
Consider the trend of some countries are using more "foreign labors " to replace local labors (especially illegal ones), maybe humanoid robots are more fit for other things human can't handle，hmm
In the application shown wouldn't a tracked robot be better instead of legs
I'm guessing they wanna make it look as human looking as possible, even though it looks freaky, scary and is impractical.😬
After watching the video again, I think they're also trying to make the robot look as scary as possible, y'know, to scare away the real human workers 😂
I would also think that if this were to get purchased in an environment where us hummies still work, having it be bipedal would be less of a workplace hazard.
Say you're double checking the pallets, the tracked robot squishes your tootsies, and doesn't move until it finishes placing the item.
...
And if it's bipedal... Well getting fired for comically toppling the robot would make for quite the story.
Why they won't put skates or roller blades on these things?
Why do they always carry plain boxes. Why percentage of warehouse actually look like this.
With quotas for how fast pallets should be palletized etc, there is no way this is efficient
Having toes would allow for more natural walking.
The way cuzz be walkin' though.
This is exactly what the AI needs in order to control the world 😢
This is the new generation and Amazon workers
Have you actually seen a palletizing robot? Its about 10x faster a fraction of the cost and highly reliable - Clue: It isn't a humanoid
Cómo si mover cajas fuera un trabajo de súper riesgo, mándalo a limpiar fozas, hasta los robot están más acomodados que un simple mortal
Anyone else find this unintentionally hilarious? "Palletizing". OK. But then "Moving crates and totes"? And then (so desperate! 😆) "Item picking"?? And the robot's doing the SAME thing in each scene: moving a box! Next time I empty my dish dry rack I'm going to complain that not only was I cabinetizing, but I was also moving dishes and plates, not to mention... item picking. 🤣
Terminator. I'll be back!!
Good!
They should name it Cylon 😊
This is deceptive. The real robot takes forever to walk 10 ft and only last 4 hours. How long does it take to charge it? The simulation showed the robot walking like a human. Hmmm.
THIS IS SO COOL! Remember people: Robots aren’t scary. Capitalism is.
He's so cute
Wish I could walk this fast 😂
😂😂😂
But can he kick my ass!!!
Crazy...
I've seen this movie 😢
Won't be long before skynet takes over
Watched terminator genesis last night!! And this is in my feed this morning!!??
Phase 2 Humanoids powered with organoid intelligence then the fun begins..... oh wait misspoke I mean the end of the world begins 😂😂😂😂😂
Looks like a robot company Elon Musk will buy out.
You gotta be quicker than that you're gonna get fired.
ain't nothin in he head
Why do they all walk like they cra.... thier pants? Boston Dynamics don't have a lot to worry about based on this video.
So what are all the old people going to do no that they’re out of a job at Amazon? Thanks….a lot.
Get robot waifus and move to the countryside.
Bro this robot would be nightmare fuel imagine if you were in a warehouse by yourself at night either just watching the place like security or Just working extra hours.. then you stumble upon this motherfucker and hes doing his job in the dark.. you only see his eyes because the infrared lights are on in his eyes and they glow red.. in the distance you hear things but can't see anything more than these pairs of red eyes.. machine doesn't talk to you or notice you but as you turn around to walk away you hear the robot change pattern and then you turn back around and the noise and the robot is gone.. I swear to God straight nightmare fuel
Infrared isn't viisble they just do that to tell you it's on.
@@xAvarice1 depends on the quality of the emitter
Excuse me maam, but you dont have money for a flashlight from china for few bucks?
@@adambanicevic306 nah it's a future Amazon warehouse they cut all the corners bro I can barely scrape by
I do not want that at my house stairing at me
Turn it off
@@Jame6999 someone doesn't see my joke
Note: Amazon is already using faster and cheaper robots to lift and move stuff in warehouses, so this thing lost that battle years before it stood up. Know what you need it for and don't make videos about stuff that purpose-built bots can do better.
Beating Tesla again
cute
If they release one that will empty and organize garage I don't care if it's $100k I am buying it 😂😂😂😂😂
And I'm gonna murder it.
It definitely is not good at fulfillment. Not yet.
Funny, but Asimo a decade ago could get around better than the most sophisticated humanoid robots today. Was Asimo a scam, or something?
He was a man in a suit
@@Rogge73 No, I don't think so.
th-cam.com/video/A_je8cHqxSw/w-d-xo.html
Why do em thing look so scary 😨 weird 😕
WTF is 1:28
I've seen turtles with arthritis who are faster on their feet than this garbage. At least the Amazon employees don't have to worry about these things taking their jobs.
Yea except these robots are cheaper and can work 24/7. Even if theyre half as fast as humans theyre still more profitable.
@@KoroushRP More like 1/5th as fast, if you need more droids to compensate for their lack of mobility in order to meet deadlines and quotas then the overheads in associated costs add up to make them impractical.
Warehouse space for unit storage, charging facilities, maintenance staff, maintenace equipment and if you need five droids to do one persons work you may need almost as many staff to maintain the droids as was originally hired to be the pickers and packers.
@@KryyssTV I dont think theyre 5 times slower. Depends on the bots and itll become faster obviously by the end of this decade. The cost of insurance, pay, training, making sure that person stays is much higher than buying a robot for 50-100 thousand. It’ll pay for itself.
@@KoroushRP This video is about these droids, not ones that exist in your imagination ten years from now.
What happens when they don’t want to work anymore?
And can we stop making them look like the robots from “The Second Renaissance: Part 1” before it’s too late?
See “The Second Renaissance: Part 2” for why this is a bad idea.
¿Qué sentido tiene crear un robot humanoide para trabajar en un almacen? ¿No sería más lógico diseñarlo de cero con la forma y herramientas más adecuadas para esa tarea? En un almacén no necesitas que el robot camine como una persona ni que coja las cosas como un humano. Es ineficiente y muy poco práctico. Por eso los humanos tienen máquinas que les ayudan. Maquinas adaptadas al trabajo que no son humanoides.
No digo que el robot humanoide esté mal. Pero el entorno escogido para demostrar sus habilidades no es a mi juicio el más acertado.
Exacto.....quieres sustituir a las personas por máquinas y terminas construyendo a un robot con forma humana y con sus mismas limitaciones.......😂😂😂😂
Looks like he has to take a crap.
The only thing Robots should be used for is to clean up 🐕💩
Point de vue rapidité s est pas un bon investissement jusque ou va l homme dans sa connerie ...
Too slow mate faster faster
too slow
Who gives a crap! Less jobs for people is all this thing does! Wake up
Too slow, will be sacked for not hitting quotas lol
very poor
Robot too slow!!!😂
Moves way too slow to work in the warehouses I've worked in here in L.A.
Hire me, I’m a good hard working robot! Pleeeeease.
Can you work 24/7 with no pay?
Nice but too slow…
Yes yes. This is what robots sould look like and perform those mundane task and dangerous jobs. Not creepy copies of us or so called companions or sex robots yuck , like the Chinese have. No debates or telling us our end. They dont need to copy our emotions such as anger. Good work apptronics.
If i moved that slow at the Amazon warehouse i'd be fired.
If he moves like this I think he makes a lot of trouble 😂
