Watch Boston Dynamics' newest Atlas robot wake up in the creepiest way possible

Robotics company Boston Dynamics has unveiled its latest humanoid robot in creepy footage showing the machine waking up from a deep slumber.

In the new video, published April 17 on YouTube, the fully electric "Atlas" humanoid robot lies face down on the floor before unnaturally bending its legs backward beyond its hips. It then puts its strength into its fully rotatable hip joints to rise to its feet.

We can also see its other fully rotatable joints in action as Atlas spins its head 360 degrees to face the camera — "looking" into the lens with a cylindrical light that surrounds a black, glass screen, which may turn out to be a display.

"The new Atlas builds on decades of research and furthers our commitment to delivering the most capable, useful mobile robots solving the toughest challenges in industry today: with Spot, with Stretch, and now with Atlas," company representatives wrote in the video description.

Only a day before publishing its new video, Boston Dynamics published another YouTube clip that spliced together various highlights of its previous Atlas model — a much larger hydraulic bipedal humanoid robot that has been in development since 2013.

"For almost a decade, Atlas has sparked our imagination, inspired the next generations of roboticists, and leapt over technical barriers in the field," company representatives wrote in the video description. "Now it’s time for our hydraulic Atlas robot to kick back and relax."
