"Atlas stands 6.2 feet (1.9 meters) tall and weighs about 198 lbs (90 kg). If it extends its arms, it can reach up to a maximum height of 7.5 ft (2.3 m) and it can lift up to 110 lbs (50 kg), although its sustained lift capability is cited as 66 lbs (30 kg). It can operate in extreme temperatures too, ranging from -4 to 104F (-20 to 40C), although doing so will reduce its runtime considerably regardless of its specific battery chemistry."
"In the official presentation videos, Boston Dynamics shows the Atlas bot carrying boxes and the entire side of a car's shell and also more delicately handling a sun visor. Atlas is not just designed for heavy lifting. Since it's an evolution of humanoid robot designs that Boston Dynamics has been working on for decades, it goes from the previous version's hydraulics to electric actuators, which allow for both brute force and finesse. The latter was a problem with the older Atlas models."
Hyundai plans to integrate 30,000 robots into car production facilities by 2028, leveraging its 2021 acquisition of Boston Dynamics. Hyundai factories already use Boston Dynamics robots like Spot for quality checks. The flagship humanoid Atlas stands 6.2 feet tall, weighs about 198 pounds, can reach 7.5 feet with extended arms, and lift up to 110 pounds with a sustained capability of 66 pounds. Atlas operates from -4 to 104 F but extreme temperatures reduce runtime. Atlas uses electric actuators rather than hydraulics to combine brute force and delicate manipulation, demonstrated by carrying car parts and handling a sun visor.
