How to read the figures
14kgA30.9lbA
The letter in the grey square after a figure points to the source the figure came from. Robots with several sources carry several letters.
Payload, walking
A stroke before a field name means the figure carries a caveat that affects how it compares with other robots. The caveat is printed with the figure.
74.5lb
Imperial figures are our own conversion unless the manufacturer states an imperial figure itself. The source letter always belongs to the metric figure — a conversion has no source of its own.

Runtime

Caveat Base battery life is 4 hours; the spec sheet separately states 'Battery Life with Heavy Lifting: 2 hrs', but does not quantify the load behind either number.

The letter points to the source at the foot of the page. Fields without a figure are dashed: the manufacturer does not state them — that is not the same as zero, and not the same as no.

Hot-swap batteryyes

Note Autonomous, self-swappable battery; the spec sheet states a 3-minute autonomous swap time with a separate 1.5 h charge time. ⁠A

Charge time90min

Note This is the stated charge time for the swapped battery, distinct from the 3-minute robot-side swap operation itself. ⁠A

Docking stationyes

Note Atlas autonomously returns to a charging station and swaps its own battery without operator intervention. ⁠B
Sensing and autonomy

Cameras360° camera view

Note The spec sheet lists this under 'Sensing' alongside 'Tactile fingers and palm', a touch sense rather than a camera. ⁠A

Autonomy levelAI-driven autonomous operation requiring minimal supervision, with skills learned by one robot deployable across the whole fleet; also supports VR teleoperation and tablet control as operating modes.

CE statedyes

Caveat The official spec sheet (page 2) displays a CE mark icon next to a 'MADE IN THE USA' flag icon, with no accompanying compliance-standard text (unlike Spot's datasheet, which names specific standards). Weaker evidence than a textual disclosure, but a genuine icon on the manufacturer's own current spec sheet. ⁠A

Notes

  • All-electric, enterprise-grade industrial humanoid robot built for material handling, part sequencing, machine tending, and order fulfillment.
  • Boston Dynamics frames this as an early-adopter/pilot-stage commercial product (first customer pilot cited: Hyundai, field testing on sequencing tasks); it supersedes the earlier hydraulic Atlas research platform, which is a different robot.
