Release the Hounds! Chinese Firm Ready to Sell Suspiciously Familiar RoboDog for $25K

Description

This super-strong robotic 'dog' will be soon available at your local electronics store. Chinese firm 'Unitree' said it was ready to start selling the robotic companion for $25,000. The robotic four-legged friend, called Laikago, can walk on a variety of terrain and drag heavy objects, moving via remote control and autonomously based on a slew of complex mathematical equations. Laikago, which looks very similar to a robot presented by American robotics company Boston Dynamics several years ago, does use a very limited form of AI.
