Remember the robot dogs from Black Mirror?

Hey guys, how's your weekend going?

 

I was just reading about some new robot tech and saw this article about BostonDynamics and the 4-legged robot they've built. I got goosebumps - it looks so much like the evil robots in Black Mirror. They were super creepy. Did you see that episode? (spoilers in link)

 

This BostonDynamics robot is called SpotMini and apparently they will start selling it next year. grin Interested? Check out the video below of how the robots open a door...

 

What uses can you think of for these types of robots? Do you think we'll start seeing these walking around in the streets soon?

Truly self-aware systems need also to be aware of the other systems upon which they either depend or that occupy the same ecosysem but in different roles...
