The engineering is truly amazing. Now if we can just keep it out of the hands of evil we can find a great use for these machines.

You mean "Spot"? He's the original dog robot from Boston Dynamics....and.... the one that's actually for sale. With only 6 to 8 weeks lead time and $75,000, he can be yours! He can carry 30 pounds & go for 90 minutes on one battery. Dancing full speed? not so long.

Ohhh, I hadn't seen this jumper....Wow, he can jump! The one I was referring to... the one that's for retail sale... is the dancing yellow robot in the first video posted here.
