This is certainly a good advance.. BUT..
This seems more like an advanced puppeteering software. The program creates an exact set of pre-determined movements, and judges whether the movements balance properly, then making adjustments.
This is fine for robotic puppets which sing and dance, but VERY limited.
(Disclaimer: I don’t know the full extent of what this robot can do.)
What useful robots need to do, is sense their own balance in real time, and dynamically walk around. It can be done.

@elpicos8091 I guess to balance perfectly. the movements would have to be calculated for the size, shape and weight of the robot. The human doing the motion capture would be balancing based on their own attributes. Even if the variations are negligible, with software you can create any sequence you want without having to get someone in with a similar body type, hook them up/set up the sensing equipment and perform each sequence needed each time you need a new one.

Superb! It’s not ready for the dance floor, but still very interesting

why not just use motion capture, a lot simpler and faster.
