Boston company releases video of humanoid robot

(WFLA/CNN) – If you’re looking for a jogging pal, a robot could be an option in the future.

A company called Boston Dynamics released a new video of its humanoid robot, called “Atlas.”

The 5-foot tall machine can jog and jump all on its own.

Atlas can also do backflips, open doors and lift boxes.

The company said on Friday that its smaller robot that resembles a dog, called the “Spot Mini” will be on the market next year.

There’s currently no word on when Atlas will be available for purchase.

The announcement also did not mention a price tag.
