Maker Boston Dynamics Adds Another Creepy And Kickable Member To Its Family Of Fearsome Robotic Quadrupeds!


For walking robots that are expected to tackle rough terrain, or strong wind gusts, the ability to keep from keeling over is an attractive quality. The 160-pound/72.5kg robot can jog along with its minder, and clamber up a slope and down with the grace of a mountain goat. It doesn’t look like it would be able to carry as much gear and equipment as Big Dog, which is why the quadruped was originally built. But that’s probably because Boston Dynamics has built it for different purposes, like search and rescue or scouting, instead of just back-breaking labor.
