And they are well positioned to reap the products and techniques from the lab with their own manufacturing and engineering prowess and experience over the next decade.&lt;p&gt;And it won&amp;#x27;t be walking dogs.&lt;p&gt;It will be things like a little flexi-joint in a car that you buy without knowing (or caring) it&amp;#x27;s in there. Or some industrial machine that Hyundai builds that gives them a 5% competitive edge in the manufacturing of it that 99.9999% of us never hear about.&lt;p&gt;But for that it&amp;#x27;s worth it.&lt;p&gt;Very happy to see people put good money into this Lab.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Hyundai acquires controlling stake in Boston Dynamics for $880M</title><url>https://finbold.com/hyundai-acquires-controlling-stake-in-u-s-robotics-firm-boston-dynamics-for-880-million/</url></story>

For all the flashy videos they put out, you so rarely see them that I&amp;#x27;m not sure if they&amp;#x27;re just doing well on the B2B side (warehouse automation? military contracts?), or if they&amp;#x27;ve been in the red for the last decade.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Hyundai acquires controlling stake in Boston Dynamics for $880M</title><url>https://finbold.com/hyundai-acquires-controlling-stake-in-u-s-robotics-firm-boston-dynamics-for-880-million/</url></story>
