The improved four-legged robot is actually a sneaky little dog that has been designed for indoor and outdoor operation. Spot uses its sensor head to navigate and negotiate rough terrain, including climbing stairs, small hills and slopes. And as you can see in the video, it now has amazing stability to stay on four legs without falling when those guy kick this poor little thing. I wonder if it falls under any law for robot cruelty?
