Video Friday: ATLAS on the Edge, Plant-Robot Hybrid, and Kuka Smash

Video Friday is your weekly selection of awesome robotics videos, collected by your edgy Automaton bloggers. We'll also be posting a weekly calendar of upcoming robotics events for the next two months; here's what we have so far (send us your events!): Let us know if you have suggestions for next week, and enjoy today's videos. IHMC has managed to get their ATLAS balancing on the edge of cinder blocks, balancing itself with outstretched arms as it does so. The robot is able to detect and explore partial footholds (in this case line contacts).
