Atlas 2024
All-electric humanoid robot for industrial work
Contact for pricing
Atlas is Boston Dynamics' all-electric humanoid robot designed for industrial environments such as warehouses and factories. It uses dexterous manipulation, tactile and camera-based sensing, and AI-driven learning to perform tasks like part sequencing, machine tending, and order fulfillment autonomously. Boston Dynamics describes it as enterprise-ready and is deploying it with early-adopter customers, including a field-testing pilot with Hyundai.
Released: 2024

Overview
Atlas is Boston Dynamics' all-electric humanoid robot, the successor to its earlier hydraulic research platform. Unveiled in 2024 as a fully electric machine, it is engineered to operate in real industrial settings such as warehouses and automotive factories, moving through the same workstations and using the same equipment as human staff.
The robot combines dexterous manipulation with tactile and camera-based sensing to handle a wide range of material-handling and fulfillment tasks. It is built on recent AI advances, allowing it to learn new skills quickly, adapt to dynamic environments, and operate autonomously with minimal supervision. Once one unit learns a task, that skill can be deployed across an entire fleet.
Boston Dynamics positions Atlas as enterprise-ready and integrates it with its Orbit fleet-management platform alongside its Spot and Stretch robots. The company is rolling it out to a select group of early-adopter customers, including a field-testing pilot with Hyundai on real-world sequencing tasks.
Key Features
- Fully electric humanoid design built to operate within existing human workstations and equipment
- Dexterous manipulation with tactile fingers and palm plus 360-degree camera-based vision
- AI-driven task learning that can be shared and deployed across an entire fleet
- Continuous operation via autonomous navigation to a charging station and self-swapping of its own battery
- Fenceless safety system with human detection, plus integration with the Orbit fleet-management platform
