Boston Dynamics has released a new video of its quadruped robot Spot performing a series of impressive backflips. The video highlights Spot’s progress with reinforcement learning, which improves its ability to balance, recover from falls, and adapt to real-world environments. The performance was designed using Boston Dynamics’ Choreographer software, which breaks each routine into thousands of precise commands that coordinate balance, timing, and movement. | The Rundown
