“#Behind those dancing robots, scientists had to bust a move<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

WALTHAM, Mass. \u2014 The man who designed some of the world\u2019s most advanced dynamic robots was on a daunting mission: programming his creations to dance to the beat with a mix of fluid, explosive and expressive motions that are almost human.<\/p>\n

The results? Almost a year and half of choreography, simulation, programming and upgrades that were capp<\/a>ed by two days of filming to produce a video running at less than 3 minutes. The clip, showing robots dancing to the 1962 hit \u201cDo You Love Me?\u201d by The Contours, was\u00a0an instant hit on social media<\/a>, attracting more than 23 million views during the first week.<\/p>\n

It shows two of Boston Dynamics\u2019 humanoid Atlas research robots doing the twist, the mashed potato and other classic moves, joined by Spot, a doglike robot and Handle, a wheeled robot designed for lifting and moving boxes in a warehouse or truck.<\/p>\n
