Dynamic robot can Hold door for its friends

Boston Dynamics’ newly redesigned Spot Mini has figured out how to open doors — with either its arm or face, depending on how you look at it.[br][br]The team behind the Big Dog proves that it’s still the master of viral robotic marketing, even after switching teams from Google to Softbank. Three months after debuting a more streamlined version of its electronic Spot Mini, the company’s got another teaser wherein one robot equipped with a head-mounted arm makes (relatively) quick work of a door, letting his his pal waltz through.[br][br]That tech seemed to hint at the possibility of an advanced autonomous control system. Given the brevity of the video, however, it’s tough to say whether someone’s controlling the ‘bots just out of frame.[br][br]If the company managed program Spot Mini to actually open the door on its own in order to help free its friend, well, perhaps it’s time to be concerned.
