BigDog
BigDog is a robot with four legs that was created in 2005 by Boston Dynamics with its cooperation with Foster-Miller, the Jet Propulsion Laboratory and the Harvard University Concord Field Station. All of these projects are funded by DARPA in the hope will be able to function as a robot mule to accompany soldiers in rugged terrain, but the project was shelved after BigDog was considered too harsh to be used in combat. Instead of using the wheel, BigDog uses four legs for walking, which allows it to move across surfaces that are not navigable by the wheels. Called "the world's most ambitious legged robot", it is designed to carry a load of 340 pounds (150 kg) with a soldier at a speed of 4 miles per hour (6.4 km / h; 1.8 m / s), and capable of traversing the terrain climbs up to 35 degrees.
Cheetah
Cheetah is a quadruped robot that ran at a speed of 28 miles / hour (45 km / h; 13 m / s), where in August 2012 he broke the fastest land speed record for legged robots. The previous record was 13.1 miles per hour (21.1 km / h; 5.9 m / s) recorded in 1989 at MIT. This robot has legs back and forth at each step, thus increasing running speed. Cheetah Robot is actually capable of running at high speeds, when tested in a laboratory where it is supported by a separate hydraulic pump by badanya and uses a special device to keep it running stable in the middle of the treadmill.
There is a similar robot developed separately but are also known as Cheetah created by MIT Biomimetic Robotics Lab, in 2014, he could jump over obstacles while running.
Littledog
Littledog has four legs, each powered by three electric motors. Walking has many different types of motion. This robot is strong enough to climb. Computers that are embedded in the body littledog, to control actuators and communication. This littledog sensor to measure joint angles, motor current, the orientation of the contact body and feet against the ground. access control program through API Boston Dynamics robot Robot. Lithium polymer battery installed allows it to continue to operate for 30 minutes without recharging. littledog development was funded by the Office of DARPA's Information Processing Technology.
RISE
RISE is a robot that runs on vertical terrain such as walls, trees and fences, using feet with micro-claws to bite textured surfaces. Surface curvature requires a climb to be able to walk and have a tail that serves to balance when climbing. RISE has a length of 0,25m, weight of 2 kg and travels 0.3 m / s. Each leg is powered by a pair of electric motors. Badang RISE on a computer for footwork, communications manager, various sensors, including joint position sensors, strain sensors leg and foot contact sensors.
SandFlea
SandFlea is a small robot that can jump 30 feet (8 m) straight up. The wheeled robot weighs 11 pounds (4.9 kg), and can be controlled like a car remote control when on a flat surface.
When jumping, the robot uses gyro stabilization when it is in the air, to provide a clear view of the camera onboard, as well as to ensure a smooth landing. SandFlea can jump 25 times on a single charge. Boston Dynamics is developing a Sand Flea with funding from the US Army Rapid Equipping Force (REF). The previous version of the Sand Flea developed by Sandia National Laboratory with funding from DARPA and JIEDDO.
PETMAN
PETMAN (Protection Ensemble Test Mannequin) is a bipedal device built to test chemical protection clothing. This is the first anthropomorphic robot that moves dynamically like a real person.
Unlike previous suit testers who have a limited repertoire of motion, PETMAN able to balance itself and move freely like walking, bending and doing calisthenics during exposure to chemical weapons. PETMAN is also able to simulate the physiology of the human person when in protective clothing, which she is able to feel the temperature, humidity and sweating, all to provide realistic test conditions. PETMAN system was delivered to the test facility where it will go through a validation experiments. Boston Dynamics Partners to develop this robot is MRIGlobal, Measurement Technologies Northwest, Smith Carter CUH2A (SCC), SRD, and HHI Corporation.
LS3
Legged Squad Support System (LS3) also known as AlphaDog, is the military version of BigDog. with the ability to operate in an environment of hot, cold, wet, and dirty.
LS3 is a robot designed to go wherever the Marines and the Army followed with a walk, help carry their burdens. LS3 automatically follow the leader who uses computer vision, so it does not require the driver / operator special. Being able to travel to the designated location. LS3 begin to be tested in 2012, funded by DARPA and the US Marine Corps. To develop the LS3, Boston Dynamics has assembled a team including engineers and scientists from Boston Dynamics, Carnegie Mellon University, Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Bell Helicopter, AAI Corporation and Woodward HRT.
Atlas
Atlas has a high mobility, can walk bipedally. On the terrain is very challenging, Atlas strong and coordinated enough to climb with hands and feet, to pick their way through a claustrophobic room. By hand allows Atlas to use a tool designed for human use. Atlas section includes hydraulic engine that drives two hands, arms, legs and chest. The head has a sensor 'articulated' including a stereo camera and a laser range finder. Atlas has also supported a separate device such as a power supply via a flexible cable menambatan.
In February 2016 Boston Dynamics published a YouTube video entitled "Atlas, The Next Generation" which shows a humanoid robot is only 5 '9 "tall (about a head shorter than the original DRC Atlas). In the video, Atlas perform a number of tasks to be difficult or impossible for the previous generation of the robot humanoid robot types, including walking at a reasonable speed on snow-covered terrain is uneven and reflex catch falling objects.
RHex
RHex is a six legged robot with inherently high mobility. Robust, foot controlled independently produce special gaits devouring rough terrain. RHex able to climb in the field of rock, mud, sand, vegetation, railroads, telephone poles, slopes and stairs.
RHex have a sealed body, making it fully capable of all operating in wet weather, muddy and swamp conditions. extraordinary ability RHex field has been validated in independent testing managed by the government. RHex controlled remotely from the operator control unit up to a distance of 700 meters. Mounted camera / IR and illuminator on the front and rear of the robot.
Spot Mini
Boston Dynamics released Mini Spot weighs only 25 kg (55 pounds) and lighter than their other products.
