Can I be like you? Even when it falls, it keeps getting back up. It finally executed a rabona kick and even struck a celebratory pose. Hyundai’s humanoid robot, Atlas, has released footage of its soccer training. Watching Atlas move with such fluidity, Son Heung-min, a forward for South Korea’s national team, reacted, “No way. Is this real? It just did a rabona. It’s better than many players.” Atlas is being presented as another challenge on the road to the World Cup in North and Central America.
