Business must be booming if theres enough budget in marketing for robotic dogs
I’ve watched a disassembly video of the basic Unitree dog variant last year, which cost around 5000 $ then. Smart modular design btw.
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.
Good dog
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.
