BigDog ‘mule’ robot wreaks havoc with herculean throwing arm
Boston Dynamics’ BigDog rough-terrain robot just got even more terrifying, with the addition of a front-mounted arm that lets it toss around cinderblocks like soda cans. To get the job done, the 240-pound quadruped uses the same approach as human athletes, recruiting the strength in its legs and torso to power the throw.
Just make sure you’re not standing right in front when it says, “Fetch!”
