The successor to Boston Dynamics' hydraulic Atlas (retired April 2024). The new platform is all-electric, IP67-rated, and ships continuous range of motion across every major joint. See Boston Dynamics' Atlas product page for the full spec table — every numeric in the frontmatter above traces back to it.

The interesting part for an AI-hardware reader is the partner stack revealed at CES on January 5, 2026: Boston Dynamics announced Atlas would be trained using Google DeepMind foundation models, with NVIDIA providing the simulation backbone for fleet-scale deployment. Manufacturing actuators come from Hyundai Mobis. See the unveiling blog post for the partner stack and the Hyundai Motor Group CES 2026 announcement for the deployment commitments.

Boston Dynamics has not published onboard compute hardware details — the product page describes "the latest advancements in AI" without naming a chip. Price is not public; Boston Dynamics positions Atlas as an enterprise pilot, not a consumer product. All deployments are spoken for in 2026 per the unveiling blog.
