I think I’ve posted this before, but this is version 2.0. Boston Dynamics has developed a new version of what they call “The most advanced quadruped robot on Earth.” This thing is both creepy and amazing to watch. It certainly isn’t sneaking up on anyone, though, as it sounds like it’s powered by a couple of Poulan 2-cycles.

Sure, it doesn’t fall over much, but what’s it do when it does?
So, I guess the next obvious question from an R&D standpoint is, “How do we put a rocket launcher on it and sell it to the military?”
