Boston Dynamics Has Captivated the Public With Viral Videos, Now It's Looking to Impress Paying Customers - NewsBreak

In June of 2020, Boston Dynamics started selling its first commercial robot: Spot. It was a big moment for the company. For most of its 30 year history, Boston Dynamics has been focused on research and development. Initially, Boston Dynamics received a lot of its funding from the U.S. military and DARPA. Later, it was financed by big-name owners including Google, SoftBank and most recently, Hyundai. All of these companies have tried to steer the robot maker on a path to commercialization, and Boston Dynamics is finally getting there.
