Hyundai’s Boston Robotics Partners Toyota To Unleash New Robots Powered by GenAI

Toyota’s expertise in large behavior models (LBM), similar to that of large language models (LLM), will be paired with Boston’s Atlas robot.

Boston Dynamics, a well-known US-based robotics company acquired by Hyundai Motors in 2021, has partnered with Toyota Motor’s research unit to unveil the new humanoid obots powered by Artificial Intelligence (AI). According to some company officials, Toyota’s expertise in large behavior models (LBM), similar to that of large language models (LLM), will be paired with Boston’s Atlas robot.

The LBMs, which will be integrated into the Atlas Robot, employ generative AI to enhance performance. Along with Toyota’s successful use of AI to teach robots, Boston Dynamics gained huge traction globally with the launch of a robotic guard dog and a mobile robotic arm for re-stocking warehouses.

At the Disrupt conference in 2023, it was reported that the robots are now mastered with 90 percent accuracy in household tasks, such as flipping pancakes, revealed Gill Pratt, head of Toyota Research Institute. The success was achieved due to lengthy training sessions. The specialized robotics hardware company Boston Dynamics is well-known for contributing to AI and software. 

Toyota remarked to counter the impediment of teaching robots to perform difficult tasks. The company’s electric Atlas was unveiled in April, outpacing the bigger hydraulic model. After a few months, videos were posted online about the robots doing push-ups. The primary goal of both these companies is to bring new advancements to create an all-purpose robotic machine that can perform tasks and learn most things like a human. 

Hyundai, claimed to be the world’s largest car maker, has signed this pact with Toyota for the first time. Robert Playter, CEO of Boston Dynamics, said that the partnership among these companies will prove beneficial in solving numerous grave hurdles and building robots that can address real-life problems with genuine solutions. Apart from caring for the children and elders at home, the robots will also be used in factory assembly lines.
