Hyundai announced the purchase of Boston Dynamics in December 2020 — at that time the company was valued at $1.1 billion.

Last week, Hyundai signed a deal to acquire an 80% stake in Boston Dynamics at a valuation of the entire company of $1.1 billion, with the remaining 20% ​​remaining with the previous owner, Softbank Holding. The Korean company became the third owner of Boston Dynamics after Google and Softbank.

Hyundai plans to introduce robots into component hungary number data manufacturing, construction, and automation processes. It is not yet clear to whom else the company plans to sell them. In the Hyundai commercial, robots help people with everyday tasks: for example, accompanying the elderly and disabled.



Boston Dynamics has now celebrated the company's joining with a celebratory video. In the video, Boston Dynamic's seven Spot robot dogs dance to the song "IONIQ: I'm On It" by South Korean pop group BTS — the group also has seven members. The track, the company said, was released in 2020 in honor of Hyundai Motor's IONIQ electric car brand.



In the second video, published by Hyundai Motor, the robot dog sneaks onto the BTS set and shows the participants how he can dance. And “infects” the humanoid robot Atlas and BTS themselves with his dance.
