Should I be standing up for the drug mules whose job this thing stole? I hope they got to do nicer jobs instead.
I wonder how long until DEA finds a robot with track wheels hauling a pallet of drugs through the desert.
Business must be booming if theres enough budget in marketing for robotic dogs
They're not as expensive as you'd think anymore. Yeah, real good one is a few grand, but you get into the mid 3 digit range and you can still get a pretty alright one.
So then if they choose their spots right this could be a dangerous proposition. You might think theft risk, but if you didn’t and (without any badge) tried to steal it you’d find out there’s a guy on every street corner watching their dog.
I've watched a disassembly video of the basic Unitree dog variant last year, which cost around 5000 $ then. Smart modular design btw.
