The Boston Dynamics Spot SDK for developing applications and payloads that control the Spot quadruped robot. It includes a Python client library, gRPC protocol definitions, payload developer documentation, and example programs.

Use cases

  • control a boston dynamics spot robot from python
  • read sensor and health data from spot
  • develop custom payloads for spot
  • build autonomous robot applications
  • communicate with spot via grpc api

When to choose

  • you own or operate a Spot robot and want to program it
  • you need to integrate Spot sensing or control into custom software
  • you are developing hardware or software payloads for Spot

When to avoid

  • you do not have access to a Spot robot
  • you need a general-purpose robotics simulator without Spot hardware
  • you want an open license - the SDK uses a proprietary Boston Dynamics license
