how is this robot seems to have perfect traction ?

its either rolls perfectly without traction or walks uphill with perfect traction ?

is it AI generated video or did they make some groundbreaking success ?

or is it just promo video, showing future potential, not yet developed capabilities ?



If I understand your question correctly, I think you may be missing that it can lock the wheels so they don’t roll sometimes like when it’s climbing uphill.


Here -and with every product promo video - you are watching curated shots. Non-flattering footage simply will get deleted during edit, except perhaps for the blooper-reel, if that's the company coldly calculates to present a goofy, non-threatening vibe.


It doesn't have perfect traction. It stumbles in the videos. This is consistent with other wheeled robots that have come out the last few years.
